Guess that shouldn't really surprise me but still... Might as well have made the old woman who smiles at Rey while she was cleaning parts. I want a supreme leader and the parts buyer/portion trader

Yeah. If that wasn't him/her then it is another varmik where he/she was seen somewhere for half a second.

I just love that there are people selling custom pops online of bespin luke and fn-2187 and then they make them official releases and they look identical

Sorry but anyone that saw TFA and didn't see a blood streaked masked Finn coming obviously doesn't know how Funko works and exploiters every possible variant.

I have the Walgreens Riot Trooper (currently looking at it) and the new battle stance combined with the powered up baton actually looks much cooler. I'm excited for it and the fact they are creating some action style poses (looking at Rey and Kylo as well).

It's sad that was my first thought when watching the movie opening night. I whispered to my GF that this would be an exclusive at some point lol.

Haven't even bought all Wave 2 POP!s yet, I hope they take their time to give my wallet some rest because I need all. Maz looks amazing, Rey and Kylo as well and I really like the FN-2199. Glad those are not Exclusives!

What would be really cool: A (probably) Walmart Exclusive 2-Pack of Rey and Kylo in action pose with GitD lightsabers and a Forest background inside the Box.

The droid who called the Resistance was GA-97. The unfortunate (fortunate?) side effect of playing the Topps Star Wars smartphone trading card game is that you end up unintentionally memorizing the names of all the minor characters in the films and animated series.

apparently people are claiming errors in the Funko art page shown at toy fair. that droid has the wrong name under it . it should be ME-8D9.

Is this wave still coming? Has anyone heard if / when?
Is it a given that these are being made if they appeared in a catalog like this?

There haven't been any updates on these, and no, it is not a given that they will be made. There have been Pops in the past that were in the TF catalog but never went into production. BUT, it is likely that they will be, because SW is hot right now.
Howdy, I'm Tres :-)

I asked them on Twitter when these would be out during one of their Q and A sessions and they said around early summer, June.

Well, that's a mild relief for my budget for now. Man, I hope there's no more exclusives.

i also asked if any of them would be store exclusives and they said yes. i dunno if they meant these ones being pictured or new ones/variants of these will come out around the same time and be exclusive to stores. im hoping none of these are, i hate the store exclusives. ](*,)

There is another Star Wars setting, but I've only see the regular series - not TFA.

These are amazing! I hope all the ones shown are not exclusives. I definitely need the Rey with lightsaber, the new Kylo, Maz Kanata, General Leia, Luke, and the Riot Trooper. Will need to find a way to track down the Rey helmet variant, but at least it's Gamestop and not Walgreens.

And to think, we still have a new Star Wars movie later in the year to look forward to which I'm sure will be loaded with yet more pops!

YIKES!!!
