I personally think that they look ok. I hope that these figures will be easy to find in the stores and they sell well, I've been waiting for a new series to collect.

[meatcutta78]

I'm in for a full set, I just hope we get better sculpts in the future.I want a new Petey please!!!!!!!!!!

[McSoundwave]

Pre-ordered!  Can't wait.  This should be fun.

I wonder when Topps will make an official announcement about these (there still hasn't been one, right? Just that teaser Facebook post?). I'm impatient and want to know what the other sculpts are!

Couldn't agree more...

I'd love some more info on variants and new sculpts

Also, I kind wonder if the variants were the results of petitions/public feedback. They should definitely re-release Cinnamon!

I was wondering that too. I have to say they seemed genuinely interested in people's thoughts about it, at least whoever's running their Facebook page. I made it a point to say how much I wanted mono color ones on their post, and I know others did too.

I'm pretty sure that the inclusion of neon mono chaser figures in this upcoming line is directly due to input to Topps from fans of GPK miniature figures. 

[Metalmonkey]

See Jakks Pacific? That is how its done! Watch and learn.
(Listen to us whinging fans )

[ironmask]

Man, if we get off onto a Jakks tirade, we'll never stop. 

Laziest toy producers, this side of DST. Bandai's home office sighs a collective breath of relief.

 

On the other hand, I have never been huge on GPK, and intend on giving this line a shot. Looks like Topps realizes WHICH SIDE THEIR BREAD IS BUTTERED ON.

Of course, I'd have to reference THAT... haha 

[Metalmonkey]

I hope these are for sale in Australia, but I'll still be putting an order in online.
Don't think we got GPK (Garbage Gang) cheap toys here so if these make it here, it'll make up for that!
Also, I'm glad yellow figures are the rarest variants, its my least favourite colour.

monkey there's some fairly big sellers selling preorders of them at gpkug, and it would save you some cash. you may have to ask about shipping to your country, but i'm sure they'd work with you sir.

Thanks for the heads up buddy. I'll be sure to check them out when it comes time to place an order. C'mon tax return!

[ironmask]

So, color me ignorant... When are these things supposed to post in retail outlets?

[Jackson]

It looks like it's going to be mid-October when these release.

[ironmask]

That's a bit of a hike from now. Did they list the major retailers that would be picking it up, a la Target, TRU, etc?

[Jackson]

Topps hasn't given their official release or where they'll be available ( but I'm sure Targets and Wallmarts will get them ) For now all we have is distributors that have them up for 'pre-order' with the picture of 11 figures. Hopefully Topps will do a full update soon of all 26 figures and when and where they will be stocking them.

[Widowmaker]

I have a feeling Toys R' Us is gonna wanna get in on these too so maybe they will have them. Walmarts and Targets are definitely givens of course. Im with you Jackson, hopefully they reveal the other 13 soon and not wait until the drop to show them all. (which they might do, Topps does strange things) 

[meatcutta78]

I hope they made a new Petey, I need a new Petey Sculpt.

This would be cool as all hell and you never know, they are doing repeats... Id like to see another still Jill or a galloping Glenn too.

We can only dream at this point, if anything maybe a member here can make a new Petey sculpt .

Preorder a box from toywiz today come on Oct!

[Metalmonkey]

I just preordered 4 boxes from Potomac Dist, missed out on buying original cheap toys so hope to make up for it with minikins.
I'm curious to see the other figures though, not long now til october!
Also I'm pretty glad the neon yellow variant is the hardest to get, cos its my least favourite colour.

[Edmasta]

I only want the non painted ones I don't like any if them!!
Controversial haha

[Er0k26]

Come on Edmasta we can have Ersico or Plastic Playhouse reprint the bad ones!
