I can't believe I just heard about these today!

McF is doing 7" scale Stranger Things figures tentatively scheduled for November. First two shown are Eleven and Chief Hopper. Demogorgon gotta be coming though...

I knew a few people around here dug that show a lot, hope the toys do well! I am 100% in on this action. :)

Thanks for that update...I have been waiting patiently on these, especially with the recent updates on Wave 2. (Dustin, Lucas, etc)

Sucks you cant use Brickseek for this kind of stuff anymore.

Yes! I picked up Hopper and Eleven from Target today over lunch. I got to pick from a couple so I ended up with two really good ones.

They had the rest of the kids pictured on the back of the card and billed as "Coming in 2018" plus a deluxe Demogorgon.  :)

Saw these at Target and they're ok. Not a fan of the paint jobs. The 3.75 inch are better IMHO, but those also have spotty paint apps.

Nice! I'm still looking for one of those myself...

While stopping by TRU over the weekend I was surprised to see they had Lucas and Dustin on the pegs. I have been looking everywhere for those! (Well, Target and GameStop mostly) I got them both for 15% off too.

I guess the 10" Demogorgon is out too but the closest one to me is like 45 minutes away so I'm trying to wait it out.

On the new cardbacks they tease Steve and Barb, so it looks like the line will have some legs.  :)

Saw the exclusive Barb figure at GameStop today

Yeah, she is pretty sweet! Seems to be the only new figure they are stocking in stores around here too. I had to order Will, Mike, Punk Eleven and the Ghostbusters 4-pack off their website. Still waiting for that order in fact.

Been checking Walmarts for the exclusive Upside-Down Will but no dice so far...

I guess my original GS order never went through so I had to re-place the whole order again over the weekend. On the plus side, they were all 25% off, so I saved a few bucks. On the down side, Will was sold out so now I have to track him down in a store. :(

Finally found the Walmart exclusive Upside-Down Will figure. Turns out I had been looking in the wrong place all along...he was in a special collectibles section in Electronics.   ;D

Found a Barb at Five Below today. Now I have a random collection of both Elevens, Hopper, Demogorgon, and Barb. But for $5 did I really have a choice?

Wow! Nice! I saw Target is clearancing out the Demogorgon now too...so I may buy one to open.

Picked up the four Ghostbusters figures loose for $15 today. At least now I have a representation of all the main kids now.

Grabbed season 3 Eleven at Target today. Left Hopper. They are $17.99. I think that's cheaper than before.

Thanks for the tip! I picked both up yesterday, def cheaper than before. I was a little worried to see the new card art, still waiting on them to release Steve on the old style card, but that seems increasingly unlikely now.

Psyched for Season 3 next week!!

Awesome pics of new Stranger Things figures from McFarlane at SDCC!

....is what I wish I was saying this morning. Way to completely waste all the momentum of the new season guys.  ::)

We just picked up our first few in this line recently, as we let our daughter watch the entire series with us this summer, and she is totally obsessed. Got her the Season 3 Eleven for her birthday, and we also got a deal on the Ghostbusters 4 pack. I kind of figured if she got into the figures and wanted more we would be way behind, but not really. No Steve? Max? Jonathan? Nancy? Billy? Seems like now would be the time to really push things out.

Steve was announced and even shown on the back of the card backs for some of the later figures, but he is totally MIA. There was also a sweet Dustin/Dart 2-pack that was shown off at one point but that seems to be in limbo too. That’s why I was so surprised to see the 2 new figures.

Trying to find out what’s going on with McF toys is virtually impossible I have found. Frustrating!
