    I think I missed something. Are Demona and Bronx exclusives and that's why they're not on sale online before Hudson?

    I know she’s part of a fake hype thing called Haulathon where certain figures are target only for a month or two like ash and the wolfman. Not sure on Bronx though. With the way she’s showing up broken for people you may wanna wait anyway to see if Neca addresses the issue of her broken wings.

    That sucks, especially for those that have been buying her for eBay prices!

    I’ll wait and hope to get her for retail or close to it.

    I think you might be safe waiting too...

    I didn't initially pull the trigger on Goliath, nor did I go to eBay when people started getting him in the mail.

    Now, I can't walk into a Target without tripping over him. Hopefully, this is a similar trend with all of them...

    I haven’t been able to find either figure yet(or any haul-a-thon figures). None of the 5 targets near me have even heard of it or received anything new from Neca although, 1 store had a bunch of Thailogs but, I’m eternally waiting for my BBTS preorder so I passed. Given the problems with Demona, I guess I can wait. Would love to find Bronx.

    Do someone know why Demona is not avaiable internationally through Haulathon? What is the restriction?
    It is ridiculous! It's like collecting MOTU and there's a restriction to purchase Skeletor

    I saw someone mention that Neca might not have the license to sell Gargoyles outside the US(or maybe North America). I don’t know if that’s true or not but, maybe that’s the reason?

    It’s totally ridiculous but, a lot of us can’t find them in the US either. Lol

    I haven't seen any of these figures available from any UK retailer. I was under the impression that we weren't getting them and would have to order them from somewhere like BBTS.

    Sorry but I'm only reposting what NECA said themselves right out of their own mouth...and showing proof. They claim they are US exclusives due to Disney's overseas licenses that may cover Gargoyles. Randy mentioned it back when Goliath was announced. He said that they were looking into finding a way to get them to everyone like they have done with the Toon TMNT stuff. They got around Target by selling them direct on their website. Maybe they found a loophole to get around this Disney fiasco?

    What stores carried them if so? I have international friends that would like to know so they can get them also.

    I know, but all seems to be fishy. BBTS & Entertainment Earth handle preorders for Goliath, Thailog, Hudson & Brooklyn and they have avialble international shipping. Haulathon site (pretty much NECA direct sales) had international shipping for Bronx while it briefly lasted available.
    Only one with restrictions have been Demona.

    This is why sometimes I prefer Super 7, they are not top quality but NECA is not much better and they have upped their prices, and S7 at least have no restricted issues with their lines as NECA impose with TMNT and now Gargoyles.

    It is difficult to comprenhend when now you have Gargoyles figures from Funko, Quantum Mechanix, Diamond Select and Kidrobot and none of them have restrictions to sold internationally... only NECA with their freaking Target Exclusives deals

    I’ve been checking the haulathon(or, costumes.com?) every friday and I never saw Bronx on there but, I suppose I could have missed it. Does seem weird if they indeed sold Bronx internationally but not Demona. Licensing across borders is a boggling thing

    I still can’t believe it but, I just found Demona at Target! According to the worker, she just put them out. Now if they would only get more Bronx figures!

    I say this a lot but, it’s really nice to find something I'm looking for out in the wild.

    It is, but it's so unreliable these days. Seems like the only way you can find stuff in the wild is to be there when the store is just putting them out.

    Yep... the days of actually walking out of a store with goodies you hoped to obtain are long gone.

    I remember when I was a kid and going to Sears or Montgomery Ward with my mom almost always ended in me taking home a new ThunderCat, MotU, or G.I.Joe figure.

    Then, there was the almighty mall experience... Sam Goody, Musicland, Spencers, Kay Bee, Circus World, Borders, Electronics Boutique, etc. that guaranteed you would not be leaving empty-handed.

    Truly magical experiences of days gone by...

    It’s sad that I get so excited to see product on the shelves.

    I remember all those stores...vividly.

    BBTS has Demona up for preorder now- expected in June:

    FYI, BBTS(and others, I assume) has Bronx up for preorder now with a June date.

    Bronx and Hudson look fantastic!

    Once I have them, along with Demona, I'll be good with this line...

    I never had an intention on collecting the whole gang, and I'm just super stoked that these all have come in such short succession.

    Once I have the main characters, I might have to rethink continuing due to space but, it’s definitely one of my favorite cartoons. At least it’s more or less a finite line- there are only so many characters that would make sense to produce.

    Have to have the whole base cast for myself. Maybe MacBeth if he has a removable trenchcoat. But definitely Lex. He needs better representation after that lame card standee they made for him.

    Really glad Demona and Bronx are up for sale now. Lexington was revealed next, so can't wait for him too and of course Broadway. I hope they'll do Angela, Cold Stone, and a Steel Clan robot at least after these, but, even if they stop with Broadway, it will still be a great run.
