I hope they go back to individual themed events. The airplane idea was kinda boring.
I would like them to make the horror box again.



needs a new rep/face to get us excited again. mike brought us that, the social media team did, and although they cant be replaced, we need something like it to get us engaged and interested in its own creative ways.

always hoping for the best!

100% this. They actually did do a live stream to show off some of the Wondercon Pops, but I would love to see more.

I agree with the glowing ones. I am also a big fan of chromed out sets, either new or reissues of previous regular ones. I just like how good they look together on a shelf. Horror Icons would be nice, there's got to be some from recent movies they could issue.

With that new tier system they just added I feel Funko is headed in the right direction. Bring back the limited pops drops.

Agreed, they are making things clear in terms of LE quantities and explicit about the price and leaving it up to fans and collectors to determine the market and I'm all for it.

Fundays may be something different this year at SDCC! Maybe just some kind of general get together with no party setting!

I really think Fundays is dead, at least for this year. Maybe they’ll do something at the con itself but it’s sad if Fundays doesn’t happen!

I think I saw on some podcast earlier this year Funko mentioning some kind of fan interaction at SDCC? Although now I can't recall that particular one.

They half listened to us. We wanted more limited numbers but we didn’t wanna higher price points lol. Or have them force us to pay for a bad hard stack.

Yes I am happy to see the new limited edition tiers and feel like this is a nice move.
I think execution will be key.
These limited editions need to have unique molds and designs.
It's a slap in the face when you buy something super cool and limited and then they come out with a common mold that is slightly different.

Exactly, if I know it's not just a money grab where it's just gonna be a slight variation of another pop, I'll buy it for sure. I want something that you can only get this one as a limited piece, whether it's a character or a very specific pose/situation.

I think it would be really cool to have Soda Sized Funko Pops but in the box not a can. It would make it a little easier for some people to collect because it would save space
