Monsters Inc.: Boo in Monster Costume "Dorbz" (GameStop Exclusive)

If you've been a follower of my blog for a while, you might know that I'm all about the current vinyl collectible craze right now. From the old school "Mighty Muggs" to the madly popular Funkos ("POP!", Mystery Minis, etc.) to Disney's very own Vinylmations, etc...I love them all!

Well, yet another line of stylized vinyl figures has surfaced and is growing in popularity: "Dorbz" by Funko (previously owned by Vinyl Sugar)! Here we have the brand new, adorable Boo in monster costume from Monsters Inc. (#160/Disney Series One). This version of Boo has just hit shelves and is available only at GameStop.

Take a look at some of the other characters in this collection on the side of the box. So far Sulley, Boo (standard edition) and this Boo are the only Pixar characters, but I'm so hoping for more soon. These little guys are so great!

Dorbz stand at about 3" tall, feature one point of articulation (the head can rotate a full 360 degrees) and are perfect for both kid and adult collectors. They typically retail for around $7.99, but it depends on where you purchase them.

I had a fun time searching for this one today. For myself, as an avid collector, the hunt is half the fun! I went to several GameStop stores and each would tell me "oh we don't have that, but the one over in _____ does." I felt like I was on a "wild Boo chase" for a while there! Needless to say, I was happy to have finally found one.

Apparently (according to the GameStop employee that I talked to), this Boo is pretty rare and already highly sought after. The store I found it at only ever got one in stock, so I was thrilled to have snagged it.

Be sure to head to your local GameStop today to check for availability! This is a must have for any Monsters Inc. fan/collector.
