Haulathon 2023

Just curious what the ratio is out there. Honesty is important.

jestergoblin · 02-28-2023, 12:21 PM

Greater Orlando area - went to three stores over the weekend:

Store 1: Super Target - nothing (usually has NECA stuff way later than most)

Store 2: mini-Target, no collector section

Store 3: Super Target - found everything except the accessory pack and Man Ray. Figures were on an end cap in the doll section.

Counting on the stuff I want being available for less hassle (as an international) later on.

Optimus Primer · 02-28-2023, 12:52 PM

Been to 4 stores, only found Red Ronin and nothing else.

There isn't an option for "went to the store once to get milk and didn't see anything".

But... that's me.

*oldmanwinters* · 02-28-2023, 02:28 PM

Somehow I walked into two Targets trying to make up my mind which figures I wanted to buy *if I saw them* and somehow walked out with Gargoyles: Hudson, Splinter as Van Helsing, and the Ultimate Kessler Werewolf.

I'm in Madison, WI and saw nothing at 4 stores. Well, not nothing, but nothing NEW. They had a fair number of Vernon/Rat King, Wingnut/Screwloose, the Frogs...even a Channel 6 set in one case. No HaulAThon aisle end whatsoever.

Tuxedo Moroboshi · 02-28-2023, 03:53 PM

I found some of them. I found all the toon stuff except for the superhero Bebop and Rocksteady figures. I didn't see any of the Archie or Mirage stuff except for one box of the Shredder clones.

Anywho, I ended up going home with some stuff, but... I hesitated on getting any of the street gang punks. And ultimately, I decided not to get them. See, if Scrag hadn't been behind a $200 paywall (preventing me from being able to afford him at the time), I would have gone all in with these guys, but... I really don't like the idea of having an incomplete set of them. So I passed. On one hand, I'm sad that I'll never have the whole gang. On the other, at least I saved myself a fair chunk of change, especially with the recent price increase.

*Roseangelo* · 02-28-2023, 04:01 PM

I found two of the three I was looking for (Man Ray, Lotus; missing Jagwar). Also walked out with a Pikachu Squishmallow and fake plant.

Exactly the same here in Missouri!

That's what I'm seeing in the Chicago area. I'm actually still finding those Pinball Crates too. Which someday I'll probably regret not getting for the repainted Shredder...

*Turo602* · 02-28-2023, 08:31 PM

My brother found Super Bebop and Mighty Rocksteady and the 2 sets of punks yesterday around 9pm. I just got back from Target about a couple of hours ago and picked up 3 Lotus 2-packs.

D Piddy 1982 · 03-01-2023, 05:21 AM

Can anyone help an international fan out. What I can only guess is the Haulathon webpage still has the Splash logo / image up, no links or anything to order.

Is there a certain day or time this goes live?

Also am I on the correct web page?

Thanks

EDIT: I see a date of March 3rd. OK, I'll wait a few more days then!!

Lordmylar06 · 03-01-2023, 05:51 AM

I'm in the Dallas/Fort Worth area of Texas and found a lot at my nearest Target.
Call me crazy, but there was too much TMNT stuff to release at once for me to buy all of it. It's really making me consider focusing on one or two of the NECA TMNT lines.
I didn't find Jagwar or Dreadmon, but picked up Man Ray, Zog, Comic Usagi and the Shredder clones. I passed on the gang 2 packs, Rex, and even the Rhino Man/Mighty Hog 2 pack.

*lonewarrior20* · 03-01-2023, 09:43 AM

Going to try again tomorrow and if nothing then I plan to order the toon series and spider gremlin. I’m fairly certain bbts will have the mirage and Archie sets up for preorder the next few months. Targets the only one with the toon series other than maybe the neca store.

HotJuicyBurgers · 03-01-2023, 09:56 AM

Dreadmon hasn’t been released yet. Rumor is it’ll be coming the next shipment though. Which is… who knows.

Hopefully Bugman and Electrozapper too

mikey see · 03-01-2023, 12:17 PM

There's a pic floating around of Dreadmon in a Target shipper. Could mean he's part of an upcoming week's drop.
