Do you think it will be a chase? Maybe for an upcoming Smugglers Bounty Box?


I'm actually thinking it is going to be a convention exclusive. I feel like Mark said that 4 total were for Celebration so it probably is one of the 2 that Mark didn't specifically confirm as being Celebration exclusives lol


Darn! It makes sense, but I won't be at Celebration. If it is an SDCC exclusive I would have a chance, but I tend to avoid going for exclusives and focus on other aspects of the con.

Went to 7 stores today, all said 6-9. Got the same BS as always with these exclusives. Doubled back and hit a few again after I was done, still nothing. Got home and checked stock and all still said 6-9. Checked about 30 minutes later and the first store I went to today (and subsequently last store I went to today since I doubled back) showed 2-5. Then a little later showed out of stock. Meaning either they were holding them for someone already, but they put them out AFTER I left the store and then sold out immediately. I was a little hot under the collar about that one. And some other stores I called and said the same thing as always..."we don't have it". That's why those stores now show out of stock. FML.

Doesn't mean anything. At midnight-ish, the system resets so they all default to that. Check again in a bit and it will go back to the correct numbers.

Why did the repeat numbers? 90 and 91 were already used for smuggler's bounty phasma and special force tie pilot

A couple Walgreen's around me show in stock on the tracker, but I'm assuming they're all from the past Star Wars series considering the East coast is last to get everything.

wraithkelso wrote:Ok, here is a breakdown of all the numbers on the back in this new wave:
90 - Luke Skywalker (ceremony) - SW Celebration exclusive
91 - Han Solo (ceremony) - SW Celebration exclusive
92 - AT-AT Driver - Walgreens
93 - Luke Skywalker (Bespin)
94 - Luke Skywalker (Bespin w/ hand cut off)
95 - Ree Yees - Walgreens
96 - Kit Fisto - Walgreens
97 - Plo Koon - Walgreens
98 - Blue Senate Guard

When I talked to Mark he said that only 1 of these is a regular release for everyone, I'm guessing wither the regular Bespin Luke or the Senate Guard.


Is there a way to buy the Celebration POPS if you don't attend other than Ebay? This is the worst time of year for me, I can't let any more convention exclusives slip away!

Yeah, those numbers have to be off unless Funko made a mistake. 90 and 91 are already in use.

Yes, The Force Awakens Wave 3 is on its way. It was part of Funko's 2016 catalog released at Toy Fair.

Here's one shot, can't find the one with Maz right now.

I had my DM order me 10 cases. They aren't coming this week so it might have just been approved too late. Maybe next time?

Also, kind of a terrible suggestion for me to make, but if your store has a bunch of Imperial guards and snow troopers, buy them new ones won't come in until they are gone. Then use those to return for the new ones.

I was thinking about doing that with the three black panthers that are sitting at the local walgreens.

Took me 2 stores, but I found them! I will say it is nice living in such a small state as it is much less of a hassle finding things. These looks so good. At first I thought the AT-AT driver was least desirable, but in person I just love it. Looks like they came in cases of 8, 2 sets per just like the last Marvel wave.

When I asked Mark about these he said that only 1 on the back of these boxes is going to be a common but at the time he wasn't sure which one. And I'm pretty sure he said that 4 total were going to be Celebration exclusives, I know for sure the ceremony Luke and Han because he could confirm those 2. If I were a betting man I'd say that either the Senate Guard OR the standard Bespin Luke will be the common.

They're in CT. Stock tracker for Meriden showed 9-15. Got there and all they had on the shelf were 2 Olafs. Asked an employee and they said they had just sold a set so they grabbed me another from the back. It helped that I showed them a picture of what I was looking for. Always ask!

Finally scored at a Walgreens (after striking out miserable for the GG wave) walked in and saw nothing on the shelf, a girl asked me if I needed help, told her I was looking for the new Star Wars Exclusive pops and as I was saying that I notice a box on the cart they were packing out on it had a case that said POP star wars exclusives. I said that's them!! She opened it and asked who I wanted and I said I'll take the whole case. Needless to say I'm happy with a set and also helped out my buddy with a set as well. Thanks god I don't have to be bothered with this search anymore!!!!

Here's hoping they'll be easy to get in Chicago...Going to hunt tomorrow (no time today), but I did see them start hitting at least Minnesota on eBay which means it's right about time here. I've had luck with all the Walgreen's exclusives so far given the density of WG locations in the city, so I'm crossing my fingers! If I can get an FN-2187, I better be able to find these!

I never found FN-2187 so I'm like 80% sure I'm not going to find these here either. But I'm not going to let it stop me from at least trying to look once it seems they're hitting Texas.

Well i called my closest store and they had 4(2x AT-AT Pilots i think) and said they would put the 3 non-duplicates behind the counter for me so i'll drive down tonight and see if they are still behind the counter when i get there lol. In hind sight, the guy didn't explicitely name any of them but said they just came in yesterday. I'm gonna be p*** if i drive all the way down there and they are last wave...lol. I asked what they were and he said "There are 4 of them, two of them are the same and look like some soldier guy"...

I didn't ask what the other 2 were so i'm hoping for a plo koon and kit fisto obviously. I'll settle for buying ree yees on ebay or a facebook group if i ca't wait a little bit longer
