Ordered the Toys Era Comedian today. I see the writing on the wall with NOTHING being announced last week...
I miss when they would announce stuff the night a movie released in theaters. I remember coming home from seeing Man of Steel and seeing they announced Superman when I was out. It was a cool feeling - shame they don’t do it anymore.
I just realized the most telling thing that a HT figure isn?t coming. Funko isn?t doing any Pops! They pop everything!
2 months is an amazing turn around. Mattel said it often takes them 2 years on some toys!
The fact WB let this be R and forsook merchandise money off of an extremely popular character is really surprising for the company that thought they could fast track their version of the MCU to success. Probably wise given all the recent controversy and the last thing they?d want to do is recall a bunch of products. I haven?t even seen T-shirts! No Halloween costumes at this time of year is also surprising! I?m curious to see if Infinity is the first of several new products to come or one of the very few. To this day very little Ledger Nurse Joker stuff has been made so WB can certainly restrain themselves well.
We'll see, it took HT several years to make a Pennywise. Hopefully by the time Joker comes out on blu ray or maybe it gets nominated for an Oscar in several categories, HT will show a prototype. Also, with the possible talks of a sequel, I could also see HT doing what they often do, which is make a figure from a sequel, rather than the original film (Sparrow and every character from POTC, Loki, Blade, Penny, Furry, Rocky etc.).
Maybe WB is waiting after the award season is over to push the merchandise out there. They want the film to maintain the arthouse image, which is difficult to do with a line of toys, shirts, and funko pops out there.

Question for those who have orders from TNS figures
When placing an order for two pre order items, if one item becomes available before the other , will they ship the available item or wait till both items are available to ship the whole order?
Are you getting one, CPC?
