From looking at Target's website, the current exclusives are the Yellow Daredevil and Faded Vision. Neither I really HAVE to have, but they are nice!

Looks like there's been other Target exclusives, like Unmasked Batman and Jake as BMO.

Target stores have a very, very small selection though. It's disappointing.

Question for you--do you leave yours in the box or take them out?

I've heard about the Faded Vision as well. However, I already have the regular Vision. I don't mind variants, but it isn't enough of a difference for me to want to buy the Target exclusive, too. I've heard of the Unmasked Batman too but never saw it in my Target (although I hadn't been to Target a lot recently and never really looked.)

Their selection is really small. I remember being in Toys R Us one time shopping for my little cousin and I figured they'd have a good selection of Funkos, but nope they didn't either. (At least, mine didn't.)

I take them out of their boxes. I like having the figures out so I can pick them up and look at (or my friends, they typically do too.) However, I have the boxes in storage in case if I decide I want them when I move out of parents' house. Who knows when that will be. I have to admit that the good thing about keeping them in their boxes is that you can be more organized with them. In my case, I don't have anywhere to display my Pops right now, so half my collection is in the basement and the other half in my room. If I keep them in their boxes, I'd be able to stack them on top of each other. But...I just like to keep them out of their boxes more haha.

Yeah I don't think I'd buy a regular one if I had gotten a variant. Like I don't plan on getting the regular Harry Potter one since I plan on getting the Quidditch Hot Topic exclusive when it comes out. :D

I take mine out of the boxes too, but I don't keep the boxes. I'm such a bad collector. xD But we have a small space so any clutter is baaad.

I don't think I really have any variants. I have the regular Groot, but if I had the opportunity to buy the Lootcrate or a different mossy Groot, I'd consider buying another, if price wasn't an issue. I do plan on buying both the original and variant version of the Fallout Vault Boy. (Kind of like a "mascot" of a video game, if you don't know what Fallout is.) I just love this game so both versions are necessary for me to get. I just picked up the glow in the dark version today actually.

I threw out the boxes of my very first Pops because I didn't think I'd end up collecting them. To be honest, I don't know if I'll end up using the boxes at all. They would be convenient for moving out so that the Pops wouldn't get damaged. I do enjoy the artwork on the boxes. But they do take up space if you aren't using them to display your figures. I feel like I'd regret it if I threw away anymore, but I'm also just a pack rat xD

Seriously though, I've heard that some people will pass up buying one if the box is damaged. I really could care less about that, lol. If I want it, I'm gonna buy it!

I know there's a DLC for the first one that you can get that gives you access to her underdome, but I only just started playing the game itself so I can't say if she's in the main game too...and my laptop would legit die trying to run the sequel. I got the recent Humble bundle at the level that gave me the first one and the sequel with a bunch of DLC for it, but I haven't tried the Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot one I mentioned. xD

Think the first one I want to get is Claptrap to go with Moxxi....but a ton of the Disney ones are tempting too. <3

I play my games on the Xbox 360 and One. I only have one laptop which I already use for school, so combining it with gaming would definitely test its limits. I need to get back into Borderlands. I'm not sure if I'm a big fan of the Pre-sequel yet, but I've hardly scratched the surface in that game too. I've got the Gentleman Claptrap which is an exclusive sold at GameStop. I don't have the regular version yet. I wouldn't mind getting it, but I've gotten so many of these Pops this past week unintentionally and I need to slow down and just focus on finishing my Fallout line, haha.

Oh it's so bad, I know. I don't display the boxes so I just kind of put them here and there in my room/the basement. Most are in my closet. Then again, I kind of hide some of the boxes cause my mom doesn't like me buying all of these hahaha. The struggles are real.

[edit] Might I add, my Marvel Collector Corps finally came in the mail today! I never got an email saying that it shipped so it was a nice surprise when I came home from work today. I was starting to worry about it.

I thought something was wrong with my order, so I'm glad I finally got it haha. Limiting yourself makes it tough. I normally only have a few in mind that I simply have to get if I see them at a store, but my purchases are typically random and unplanned. I found three today that I really wanted and purchased, so I only have one more that is actually on my list to buy. Actually, I want Wolverine too, but I have never seen him in a store before. I've bought so many within these past two weeks so I know the feels. No self control.

Yay congrats! I'm not a huge Harry Potter fan, but I do like it. I have only seen the Hot Topic exclusive of Harry Potter so far. I believe that's the one where he's holding a sword, if I remember correctly? Both of those look awesome though. And I forgot, I've seen Hagrid too.

Thankfully I haven't bought anymore within the past week or week and a half, cause I bought so many a couple weeks ago. I think I almost got 15 in two weeks, granted some of them I basically got for free due to coupons and Hot Cash for Hot Topic. I did buy all of the Fallout Pops though so I'm satisfied. I randomly bought the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles because I've never seen all 4 in a store at once before and I just kind of thought they looked cool. Plus you can't have just one or two turtles, you kind of have to have all 4....lol.

Those pics are already outdated cause my collection has grown since then lol. I think I have 50 now. Which ones do you have?

Yeah, that's the exclusive! I had seen a Quidditch one online that was said to be a Hot Topic exclusive too, but I asked them about it yesterday and they were like NEVER HEARD OF IT. So I was sad.

Oh goodness I hate it when the employees of the store have no idea what I'm talking about. I've asked questions about games and accessories at Gamestop and they give me looks as if I had two heads. I've heard of the Quidditch one too but didn't realize it was a Hot Topic exclusive until I just looked it up. Perhaps it hasn't been released in stores yet (doubtful) or maybe your local store hasn't received a shipment of them yet?? A couple weeks ago I was anxiously waiting my Hot Topic to release an exclusive Pop. I had seen images all over of people purchasing them but my store didn't get it for a while.

Really though, that Quidditch one seriously looks awesome. I had only heard of it but never saw what it actually looked like.

I'd really prefer to have that variant.. But there's like nothing online for when it's supposed to be released or anything! Some say August 2015, but nothing definite.

Daaang you aren't kidding. I can't find any information on him. Normally I can find a ballpark idea but I haven't seen a single date. I can't imagine it would be too much longer though, considering the Harry Potter pops went out this month? August sounds like a good possibility, but then again I really wouldn't know. I don't see him on Hot Topic's website, either.

I know a few people that have had Quidditch Harry shipped already, so he has been released is is about, just gotta hunt for him i guess. He and Snape are the only ones that i want from that set, but im waiting until my next NY trip in October to buy them, along with the Doctor Who line as i want a few of those too, but paying my countries prices for them suck, so i prefer to wait lol Though i have brought a ton of new pops recently, mostly hard to find ones from sellers on facebook though XD

I did see one site that has him as "Out of Stock!" so I signed up for alerts when it comes back in stock. I remember seeing one on eBay, but it was SO EXPENSIVE I was like lololnty.

Can't blame you for wanting to wait and get them for a cheaper price. But I'd probably be tempted to buy more just because they are cheaper while you're over at NY too, lol.

I just looked them up out of curiosity. Some prices don't look bad but then you see where they're being shipped from xD Hopefully they'll be easy to find soon! I wouldn't mind buying it. He just looks so cool.

Wouldn't quite say I collect them (as of yet). But I do have a few! I have a deadpool, harley quinn, an Daenerys Targaryen. I could have sqorn I had a batman, but I can't spy him, so I guess I don't! Haha, I know there are a few others I would like to get at some point though.
