Hot Tips ~ Winter is Here Edition
Hey there folks!
Unless you’ve been living under a rock lately, you are already aware that Game of Thrones is back on and airing their final season on HBO. The biggest show on television is wrapping it up in the coming weeks, but don’t let that get ya down. Instead, use its popularity and rabid fan base to your advantage to make some tasty moolah today.
Today’s Hot Tips is not a comic which is what I usually post about but instead, a Funko Pop! Incase you actually are living under a rock...Funko is a Vinyl toy company based out of Everett, Washington and they have blossomed into a mighty juggernaut in the Toy & Collectibles market.
Key Licensing is their winning ticket in this crowded field and it has allowed them to grow to insane heights within the past several years. Their stock has performed well and they show zero signs of slowing down anytime soon. It seems you can’t go anywhere these days without seeing their flagship product “Pops!” lining store shelves waiting for hungry Funko Funatics to snap em up. Well, we can now add another odd store to the mix...
It seems that AT&T stores in the states are the exclusive retailer to snag the super hot and super shiny Metallic Night King Pop! That’s right...the same place you go to get your cell phone at is now selling Funko Pops. It’s a weird mix but at the same time, I understand why. AT&T now owns HBO and this is just a product tie in. I’m guessing it will be a success and we will end up seeing more exclusives popping up from them in the future...but for now go check out your local stores as they are selling out fast.
I believe the Pops are retailing for around $10 bucks in the stores but are currently selling for between $30-$45 bucks on the ol’ bay.
Once again, not enough to retire on to live out your days in Kings Landing but should be enough to buy you some tasty Steem to Power Up that account of your with!!! Opportunities like these are perfect for growing your account here. Go seek the Pops out for $10 bucks. Flip em on eBay for $40 bucks. Take the difference and buy some Steem with it. Let’s say you were lucky to find 2 of these and came away with $55 bucks in delicious profits after fees and all that...that gets you roughly 135 Steem right now.
This is how you can grow your account with little to no risk out of pocket. I always see new users complain how hard it is to gain sone traction here...we’ll take the reigns yourself for a bit. You won’t be sorry, I’m sure of it.
From what I’ve heard thus far, only Corporate stores are receiving these...not franchise locations so you’ll have to find the right ones in your area. Good luck!
Anyone here who is able to secure any...snap a pic of you holding the pops with the receipt and share it in the comments and I’ll purchase 2 shares of @steembasicincome for you. Flip it and use those funds to buy some Steem to power up your account and I’ll buy you 3 more shares! Just showcase the process in the comments and I’ll do the rest! So you can win 5 shares of Steem Basic Income if you are lucky enough to score any!
Winter is Here, so Go Get em!!!

They will be available online the 26th and if you catch an employee on a good day you can get them to do Direct fulfillment order and have them shipped to your house. They will only be available at corporate stores as well.
boom!
Quick update...a week later since its 4am EST and i cant sleep. At&t really screwed the pooch on this one. Stores released early when they shouldn't have. The direct fulfillment orders I mentioned should have never been placed. Everyone that I know that was able to order through a store. Has received emails in the past 2 or 3 days saying their shipping dates are being pushed back with no ETA.Turns out those orders employees where placing for people nearly whipped out the stock that was going to be used for the online drop on the 26th. A 10$ retail pop is either going to be a brick or its going to skyrocket in price after the online release the 26th.
This is cool and all, but my Xenomorph Pop is the true big dick champion here. In fact, I would go as far to say this GoT pop sucks dirty butthole in comparison to the beautiful majesty of my Xenomorph pop. Now, you might argue the value difference. But, my response is this: Don't make me drop trousers and come take a big old wet fart in your cereal. I'll fucking do it.
I agree....that Xenomorph is superior in all ways...
but if me insulting it gets you to shart in my off brand fruit loops...
True men only eat Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Or, Golden Grahams. Perhaps coco puffs are also acceptable. But, fruit loops? You might as well go eat the marshmallows only from Lucky Charms, you godless heathen.
Sup Dork! Enjoy the upvote!!!
