So, any chance of Kylo getting put back up, or are my only shots ebay or trade/buy?

I would guess the only way it gets relisted is if someone cancels their order, so i'd say your chances are slim to none

Slept through them but I guess I don't feel as bad. Freddy collecting is a rich man's game after all. Congrats everyone!

SUPER fun time last night!!! There were no scrums or pushing/shoving and pretty darn sure everyone walked away with some cool stuff after yummy food and drinks and games/fun show! :freddy3:

And putting more names with faces was great!

Well I found someone with one of the purple Huckleberry Hound Dorbz (1/24) - he walked into Fundays towards the end of the night (didn't have tickets) and got one that Brian was handing out...

All of those could've had great LE24s. Scarred Ren, GITD Skeletor and Vault Boy, Glitter NK. So many possibilities. sigh ok /rant

Paying homage to the old days of funko, they match a series of Fred Flintstone Wacky Wobblers and pops from couple years ago.

I can see that but still you would think at least one of those would get a le24 variant. but oh well there's always next year.

Yeah I thought the same thing, those will all look great displayed together! I think when pics of these OOB start showing up people are going to be way more impressed. Freddy's big feature is his crown and you pretty much can't see it in the box.

Couldn't agree more about the crown! That's what makes it fantastic. The Freddy Willy Wonka actually has a top hat instead

Funko really did to a great job with Fundays.It was well organizing,creative, fair for everyone, and they sure put on an amazing show. I had a blast!

Great job Funko =D>

What's the difference with the 1/24 Kylo and Oompa Loompa's?

The 1/24 Oompa Loompa glows in the dark, I didn't think there was a 1/24 Kylo?? :eek:

I felt that I was given an equal opportunity at many prizes. The Prize Patrol were fast and efficient and respectfully requested that everyone stay at their table and stay in your seat.
The Awards were great. I like the personalized messages and intros.
The use of playing cards made prize distribution random and fair. We had 3 winners at our table. You had to turn in the card in order to receive the prize.
Lots of trading was done before, a little bit during, and a lot after.
I saw old friends, and made some new friends (you know who you are - newhousebailey).
The Funko Funatic spirit was everywhere.
I hope to think that I helped spread some spirit while helping others swap in/out of their Freddy's.

The only downsides to the night was the wait outside in the sun and the delay to start dinner. But those were forgotten quickly once people got some food and drink in them.

Thank you to everyone who planned the new rules, distributed prizes evenly, and hosted the most memorable party in a great while.

The Funko Spirit lives on and keeps growing.

I love summaries like this. Thanks, Michael. Happy to hear it was such a fun time for all!

Glad I got Night King, best one by far to me

Only other one I liked was Skeletor

Someone on here said something about it. They very well may be mistaken though.

Happy to say I just got Freddy Cobra Commander on Ebay for not too much more than it went for on Gemini, I'm stoked! Just need Skeletor and Night King now.

Postby **emcee** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 3:08 pm

I know everyone loves Funko, but I'm wondering, as a food snob, did anyone take pictures of the food? I'm curious what they had lol

Postby **Wrudart** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 3:29 pm

I really really want one of the super giant dorbz!!! Preferably deadpool or batman

Postby **emcee** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 3:34 pm

I have found the first 2 "rumours" of the 1/24 Kylo. I'm going to say they are false until proven otherwise...

Last night was amazing! I'm still on a high from it! I heard so many scary stories about Fundays but I saw none of that yesterday! Everyone at my table was very friendly! Me and my bf managed to get Mad Hatter (2), Fred Flinstone, Sting, Wonka, Vault boy in our Box of Fun and won 2 Ernies but managed to trade with someone to get a Bert! We also won protos as well! We got Roman Reins and Naruto! My card was also picked (Aquaman!) and scored a 1/100 Batman (black suit) Freddy that I later had Brian sign at the end of the night! I was so excited to meet him! We had such an amazing time! Thank you Funko!! Team Stitch!!

I thought someone else said something more concrete :-k

Could have just been me being really tired waiting for Gemini last night, I guess. lol

Nice Fundays hauls everyone! Sounds like everyone had a great time. Still very jealous...must save my pennies one of these years.

Still hoping an east coast Fundays will happen. But not at NYCC. That will just be a nightmare to try and get to.

Postby **The Head** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 4:33 pm

Thanks for the replies. I ended up skipping these. Kinda regret now that sting is sold out, but I'm strapped for cash after sdcc pops. Hopefully I can get some later for decent prices.

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 4:35 pm

You know times are dark when EBAY doesn't even have Night King Freddies.

Postby **emcee** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 4:52 pm

You mean.. GREAT???

The less re-selling the better

Postby **Blake85** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 5:05 pm

Hopefully i get these freddys some day

I would agree if I weren't so desperate for one. Not that I have the cash so I guess maybe looking at it would just be self punishment.

I didn't take pictures but the food was great! Here is what I saw:
Panini type sandwiches with beef short ribs or turkey and havarti.
Sliders with cheese and truffle oil.
Fried chicken slider with what looked like homemade pickles.
Two kinds of pasta.
Three kinds of sausage.
Regular and sweet potato fries with a huge thing of hot cheese to drizzle on them.
Fruit and veggies.
Brownies.

Did anyone receive prototypes of items that have not been officially revealed yet?

Had an absolutely fantastic time at fundays this year with some great people! The format was 100x better than last year. Organized, safe, fun, and everyone came out with piles of toys! I genuinely have no complaints.

Postby **TanyaTate** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 6:13 pm

Had a great time seeing a lot of you there

Postby **nyel24** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 6:18 pm

That is great to hear the wonderful stories and that every one had a safe fun time. Wish I could have been there but hoping to get tickets next year.

Postby **Bernie** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 6:23 pm

Last night was great. Walked out with four Freddys and three protos. And just had a blast.

Postby **Fawny** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 6:28 pm

Wow, 4th Doctor Freddy is going for $300 on eBay. *big sigh* Another Pop that is way financially out of reach.

Need to remember to save more for next year.

Postby **Ske7ch** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 7:02 pm

I think I rather go to Fundays than SDCC next year lol

Postby **Mauison** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 7:37 pm

Dorbz, Retro Freddy's and others are up on Gemini now!

Postby **wardengorri** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 7:43 pm

Darn BARELY missed out on Night King, congrats to whoever got him!

Right now is when the folks with a little less patience bid up because they have to have it right away. I think with patience you can get a good deal.

Holy shoot, that LE24 Golden Freddy is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life. I haven't seen a pic of it at Fundays so I'm wondering how people were able to acquire it? Looks like a special prize.

Postby **Mr Yac** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 7:58 pm

i'm pretty surprised they went with Vault Boy over the Power Armor for the Fallout one. I think Armor Freddy with a rusty worn crown would've been quite amazing.
