Hot Topic started selling Funko exclusives in 2013. Although they have carried some awesome figures (TWD Merle, Daryl Dixon in a Pancho, Hipster Ariel & Belle) and carved out a nitch for themselves in the Funko Funatic community, they still haven’t developed a pattern for how, when or where they release new figures.
Yesterday, it seems, the retailer changed things on us again. In a random search of all of our favorite Pop! sites, we stumbled onto two new listings for My Little Pony figures that are actually listed as “Hot Topic Exlusives.” Up for pre-order (yes pre-order) on HotTopic.com, we found both Trixie Lulamoon & Princess Twilight Sparkle, both of which have chase versions as well.
