We had no idea when, but boy did the site get busy when you saw Brian@Funko was online! Then he would post a topic that said something like "The next ten people to post are entered in for a drawing" And the quickest thing to type was IN so then everyone would type IN or something like that. The site ran slow, refresh took forever, there were multiple people who said IN more than once because they were not sure if the first one went through. But none of that compares to when Brian announced that he would be on at a specific time.

Brian said he'd post the next one at 7PST well EVERYONE and their mother was online at that time, the site could hardly keep up!! And needless to say, even though Brian had not posted yet, dozens of people just started randomly posting IN IN IN right at 7!! IT WAS MADNESS!!! We were all PROTO CRAZY!!! This was also when it was harder to post something if someone had posted since you started your post. (Thankfully that is no longer the case) Well it was so crazy that Brian couldn't even post at 7 because everyone else was posting. So he finally started a new topic (I believe that is correct) and then we all posted in there.

It was some serious crazyness!! But I am happy to say that I do have all 5 of the different color protos! Took my a long time to track them all down and get them but they are a rare gem in my collection!! Needless to say I highly doubt I'll be getting all of these. Not anytime soon at least!

I've never heard the full story before.. that's absolutely insane! :eek:

Maybe we can postpone new members from joining till after the contest is over, seeing as they will just be joining for this.

I'm glad that I'm around for this contest. Thanks, Brian and to all those who make Funko work everyday.

I hope we get a WW shirt version at SDCC/Fundays. A spastik throwback would be cool too!

Postby **mstg25** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 1:32 pm

Hope us newbies won't be excluded from this...would LOVE to add one to our collection!!!

Postby **StupidDirigible** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 1:42 pm

So I'm slightly confused because I missed the last one of these, so Brain will post in this section and not in a new thread right?

Thank and best of luck everyone.

Has anyone else notice the hands on the protos are facing in different directions? Are the arms poseable? That would be so cool!

Kaitlyn and I noticed that last night after viewing the pics for the 100th time

It definitely looks like they are rotatable!

Edit: It looks like the white proto has a different hand up than the production piece, so I think that is basically confirmed :]

That's what I got from the reading but then read some other responses so I got a little mixed up.

They are different on a couple of pieces. I was thinking the same thing. I hope they are poseable.

Postby **haydenstorm** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 1:57 pm

I noticed this too. At first I thought it was the angle of the pic, but one is very obvious

Postby **TulaBug** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:14 pm

The grey proto has his right hand facing down and the rest are facing forward or up. What a great feature. Now I am even more excited if that is even possible. :bounce:

WOW!!! Awesome job on the Freddys!

Postby **chester** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:27 pm

I wish tree was a WACKY WOBBLER version.

Postby **thankyouforsmoking** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:38 pm

This is cool....How do people sign up for this?

Postby **bobbleboy** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:42 pm

Not gonna sugar coat it...I want to win one of these. Badly.

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 2:43 pm

You will be instructed on Monday when Brian begins the contest.

Postby **NESSNODDER** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 3:00 pm

If I recall correctly someone didn't feel too welcomed when they first joined :-"

I know it sucks for someone to join just to win but seriously who cares maybe the stay or maybe they go bottomline no one is guranteed to win anything its all a game of chance.

Postby **haydenstorm** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 4:14 pm

It's all good, If a newb wins, they do. Best of luck to everyone

Postby **NESSNODDER** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 4:38 pm

COOL T-SHIRT BEAR!

Postby **FunkoNewb** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 6:01 pm

I have no problem with newbs winning things, I just like the guessing game of how many new people will show up for the giveaway. That and how many people we can have online at once... quite entertaining...

Postby **Kevjo** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 6:11 pm

Oh man, for some of the first evers - those came out really nicely.

Destined for uberness even from day one.

Postby **captgarlik** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:31 pm

Those are adorable! I might have to call in work on Monday.

Postby **Drayvn** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:37 pm

That's awesome!!! I'll find a way to be there!! Count me sooooo IN!!!

Postby **bobbleboy** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:58 pm

Glad I have a privacy screen on my laptop. Funatic board will be getting the refresh treatment all week. May have to get lunch ordered to my desk.

Postby **j-phung** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 8:14 pm

Can't wait for this! Really loving the Blue Freddy!

This is going to be stressful again, but in a good way!
