Star Wars Celebration Orlando Predictions

Postby **Shawnc511** » Sun Feb 26, 2017 6:48 pm

Star Wars Celebration Orlando is less than two months out and with Grand Admiral Thrawn rumored to be an exclusive. What are everyone's theories for this year's celebration exclusives?

My theories:

1. Grand Admiral Thrawn
2. Captain Rex with Helmet
3. AP-5 or Chopper with Imperial paint job
4. Hondo Ohnaka
5. Agent Kallus
6. Commander Wolffe, Captain Gregor, or Commander Jun Sato

Hoth Leia
Ghost Anakin

I remember reading somewhere that there would be a lot of Rebels-related items so this makes sense. I would be down for any/all of these.

Also with Funko actually having a booth there for the first time, it seems like there will overall be a greater quantity of items be they Con only or shared exclusives than the past couple of years.

I'll be attending SWC for the first time since the inaugural Celebration in 1999. Extremely excited for it!

Predictions:

Hooded Luke POP
Hoth Leia POP
Garindan Empire Spy POP
Grand Admiral Thrawn POP

Vader? Super Deluxe Vinyl

Boba Fett Mini Hikari

Very likely that the pops are:
Hoth Leia (rumored)
Garindan (rumored)
Hooded Luke (rumored)
Rebels Pop (confirmed, Thrawn rumored)

Super Deluxe Vinyl (confirmed, Vader rumored)
Bounty Hunter Mini Hikari (confirmed, Boba rumored)

Postby **Sarcasticguy** » Sun Feb 26, 2017 8:24 pm

Im hoping they reveal more Mini Hikari. Need chubby Boba Fett in my life.

I think the rumor of Hoth Leia, Hooded Luke, and Garindan being SWC exclusives will probably come true, as well as Thrawn. I think Bodhi Rook is also a possibility. But to be honest, none of these interest me much.

I think a Hondo Pop would be very interesting. Another CW character I like that we can actually get a Pop of due to his inclusion into Rebels. The only other Rebels Pops that I can think of atm that I would be interested in getting are Sabine with darksaber and masked Seventh Sister, possibly with her droid.

Can't wait to hear what there will actually be. Jealous of all of you going

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Sun Feb 26, 2017 11:34 pm

I hope the Garindan ends up being a simpler exclusive than SWC. That's one Star Wars pop I really want. After being disappointed by the news of Muftak being shared with FYE, this obscure Star Wars collector could use a win. I also hope the Super Deluxe isn't something incredible that I will spend many a day yearning for.

I think K2-S0 with a blaster, and Krennic with hat will be exclusives.

Postby **Nooklin** » Mon Feb 27, 2017 2:47 am

Jango Fett in Rocket Pack pose would be good.

If mace windu is there someone please help me... lol

Whether or not the Hoth Leia is a SWC release or not, it will be available at Gamestop as it was listed on their most recent pre-order list.

I'm pretty sure Qui-GONE-Jinn was on their pre-order list also at one point :-k

Also, how are we able to get these other tan the con itself? Disney store or online store maybe? [-o<

Funko actually had a booth at Celebration Anaheim in 2015. I wasn't into Pops back then, so my time in lines was spent mostly at Hallmark, Lego, and Gentle Giant. Now I have to see how I'm going to manage cramming a 4th major vendor into 3 days (I'm flying out early Sunday because of Easter).

Postby **sleepywan** » Mon Feb 27, 2017 9:55 am

I'm also going to my first SWC since the inaugural in '99...and I'll take any Pops that aren't Rebels (my collection is strictly the feature films). My first stop will be the Funko booth on Thursday, so I hope there are some goodies. I've had to give up on Qui Gon, GITD Darth Maul, Biggs, Unmasked Leia Boushh, 501st Clone Trooper, Shadow Trooper, flocked Chewy #6, and the Han and Luke Stormtroopers - but I just started collecting in December, so never was around in the market when those were released. Hope I'm on the train this time for the inside goods!

Postby **mohawkjones** » Mon Feb 27, 2017 12:08 pm

Maybe a exclusive pre-release of the Mystery Minis or Dorbz?

Postby **Mikey8815** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 12:21 am

Hopefully rogue one wave 2 debuts by celebration. Not as exclusives of course, it just seems like they are due.

All of these thrown out are great and I'd love to have... but it's already a long list and I'm terrified of another Qui Gonn experience with limited release (i.e. Numbered) for any of them

I honestly like the limited non shared pieces. I'm assuming a majority of them will be shared though

Carrie Fisher Pop?

Postby **TheJobaFett** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 10:35 am

Admiral Thrawn pop
Rebels Captain Rex w/ Helmet
Super Deluxe Darth Vader
Mini Bossk or Boba Fett hikari
Hooded Jedi Luke Pop
Hoth Leia Pop
Garindan Pop

Those are my predictions and ones my wallet can live with

Postby **Brian@Funko** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 6:57 pm

I'd like to see some more Mini Hikari......

Oh yes please, we want more! A little Vader, a little wampa, a little Boba would make my day.

Postby **NCDS** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 7:18 pm

I'm pretty sure they'll have Captain Kirk and a Spock.

We need a spirit Han Solo, I know he is not a Jedi but I don't care.

I'm so excited about this! I'm already considering how I'm gonna get everything home from Orlando. Just about everything mentioned here sounds awesome and since I'm a completist, I'll be getting them all.

Plus maybe a new tattoo, if I get really crazy

Postby **zaghawk** » Wed Mar 01, 2017 2:52 am

I'm going with Spirit Qui Gon Jin.

Postby **angrykoalagear** » Wed Mar 01, 2017 12:59 pm

Being the 40th Anniversary, I see a few classic painted vintage style Pop! on the table as exclusives. I think the Walmart exclusive 3 pack is a huge hint of what Funko may be doing this year for Star Wars fans. This is what I hope for at any rate.

Postby **jkcohen626** » Wed Mar 01, 2017 1:12 pm

I'm just hoping for some Clone Wars or Rebels Characters that appeared in Clone Wars (eg Hondo, Wolfe, Gregor)

Postby **racheva** » Wed Mar 01, 2017 1:31 pm

I've been thinking on this and I would love a Cad Bane pop. That along with Admiral Thrawn would be my biggest wants.

I double dog dare you!

Maybe even a few for Funko-shop for those unfortunate souls not making the trek to Dagobah... er, I mean Orlando this year!
