Funko POP! Chat :)

[Flash]

There are many threads for questions about steelbook values and rarities/exclusives and just chatter.

I think we should have one for Funko Pop Vinyls.

Post here any questions you have about certain exclusives, ones you want, or have.

Let's discuss anything POP related maybe even your dream pop list.

@Flash cheers

P.s. The SDCC ones are becoming harder to find but forbidden planet still have them in stock

By the way, ANY news on the big DC announcement?!?! I haven't heard anything.

if you're referring to the announcement I posted about, I didn't mean for it to be intended as a DC announcement, just that a DC Collector Corps was my guess. It was only ever stated to be a POP related announcement. I believe it turned out to be the Harry Potter line, which Funko was supposedly working to get the licence on for quite a while. Or maybe it was the POP Home products, not sure. No formal confirmation from that individual.

Try amazon.co.uk for the breaking bad ones. I got Saul in hmv for 9.99 which i thought was cheap but then i looked on amazon.co.uk Saturday evening and saw that they have a few Breaking bad ones for approx. £7 or less with many being from Amazon direct so free super saver delivery when you spent more than £10. I ordered Hank & Gus Fring (normal) Saturday evening for £13.19 (with super saver delivery) and both will be delivered today. Also ordered Mike for £6.81 (included free delivery) which should be sent today. Just noticed that Mike is now only £5.08 with free delivery:

For some reason Breaking Bad ones are really cheap at the moment

They have gone up in price on amazon, if you are concerned with boxes and paint jobs id suggest a shop @Cobster

Just for curiosity, what are the hardest POP! to acquire at the moment?

typically anything that takes you more than a couple of days to find lol. Honestly clockwork orange, protos, freddys, retired chase/metallic DC are all hard to find

Nice. Recieved my 2 breaking bad ones from them earlier in a large box with enough packaging (huge piece of brown paper to stop movement but not to much to pack them in to tight). The only other pop I ordered from them was rick grimes which arrived damaged but that wouldve already been damaged in packaging stage as had a tear on box. Was offered 15% or a replacement on that.

As @Jb162009 talked about sadly amazon really do not pack well either, we've had a number damaged from them so tend to avoid them and zavvi for pops.

(Yes we ordered the BB ship from zavvi for £14.99 but for that price, and it probably won't turn up anyway, just had more cancelled 'they couldn't get'

You never know, I ordered two Scarface in Cadillac in the 2for£20 deal on Thursday (they disappeared from the deal almost immediately after)and they've both been shipped.

Maybe you'll be lucky, we got the batman ride from them ages ago and it was wrecked when it arrived

I only buy steelbooks from zavvi and they ship the steels in the white slim box. But... What about Pop's? Does anyone have pics about the protection ?

what we last got was a completely empty box, no protection at all, nothing,

Sadly their pop packaging is even worse than with steels.

Sorry for this question... What is Toy Fair? Do they make Pop! exclusives?

The New York Toy Fair is a convention where a lot of the bigger manufacturers (including Funko) go to showcase/display some of the new stuff they have releasing over the next year. Not sure if they sell/give away any of these new items or not. It's more of just going to see what is set to release in the coming months.

For anyone who wants to see any of the new pops coming up, here's is a cool video I found on YouTube from the toy fair that has some pretty awesome footage of the new pops

I am slightly confused I appreciated the hot topic pre release stickered items are just early releases of the same figure but I had thought the ones deemed hot topic exclusive were different but recent funkos have made me realise even ones deemed their exclusive are really as many of the same figures are available for example the FBI Sam and Dean they are coming to Uk soon same figures and upside down Olaf??

So all the trouble we have gone through to get the hot topic exclusives when they aren't that exclusive at all

ht exclusives mean exclusive in the USA, but does not apply outside of the states (in most cases you'll see them pop up at forbidden planet or pc.) Just like if there was an exclusive at forbidden planet, it could be limited in the UK but not anywhere else. Another key note is just because something is retired does not mean it is necessarily retired in other countries. I believe Funko is set to re-release some star wars and possibly disney in the future

Having seen a few of the upcoming Star Wars ones they are simply re-releases of the same figures in a new box
