I was surprised they did that. I wish I could re-enter speed racer.

I wonder if people used dummy credit cards that didn’t go through


That's what I wonder people did also, that speed racer one looks really good. Well they both do lol

There is always room for more, even if the collection has to creep into the living space :bom:

Results are out for Gatchaman, and I was picked. Other than FunDays tickets hopefully (you always have to stay positive!) this needs to be my last purchase until SDCC.

That re-draw caught me off guard but I'm very happy for those who managed to get it (and I know a few who missed out first time around, so they were very excited to pick it up). I'll always celebrate a collecting win.

It wasn't that it didn't sell out, it was that some of those who were selected did not pay or their card was rejected. If a significant number are rejected, the seller (Funko) can elect to put those back up for sale a second time. The last thing Funko wants is to have leftovers sitting in the warehouse if they can avoid it.

Good buy for all those who were lucky enough to get one. This set was great. I wish I could convince myself I have the space to even bother trying.

.

If there were less than 1200 entries sold the first time, then why did people get rejected? It only makes sense to reject people if you have MORE entries than pieces available

Yeah Idk at the end of the day it doesn't matter as long as people are able to get what they want I don't care if it sold out in .0001 seconds or didn't sell out
