Metallic Vision FYE VAriant

Postby **jacktrocity** » Sat Sep 12, 2015 8:38 pm

Called FYE, they said they get their shipments on Wednesdays. So If anyone is calling/checking, I would do so Wednesday night or Thursday morning. I wish FUNKO told us release dates.

No offense, but it's really annoying when customizers post things like "just paint one yourself". I think the extremely high majority of us don't consider customs to be the same thing as official releases, let alone have the knowledge, supplies, time, or skills needed to make a decent looking custom if we wanted to.

Yeah I wish I had the talent to do repaints and customs. It's a great time to be good at art with the internet and all.

Couldn't agree more. I look at some of the work of custom POPs and think to myself, wow that looks great...hope a production version eventually becomes available. I don't have the skill sets or materials to make them myself, but I have no interest in customs. I'm glad that folks enjoy making and purchasing customs, but it isn't the same by a long shot for many of us. =D>

Dang there hasn't been an FYE around me since I was a little kid. Definitely need this piece, hopefully not via eBay

agreed...agreed...agreed. I understand there's a market for them, and hell, people make them just for themselves, but unless someone was making a Pop! for me that looked like me, I would never buy one (and if someone made me a "mini-me", they had better GIVE it to me!)

haha, a POP of myself would be too goofy to pass up.

Postby **Abbernaffy** » Sun Sep 13, 2015 2:47 pm

Well it was just intended as a joke

but if you're really keen on a pop that doesn't exist then having a customiser make it for you is always an option too

I don't know if anyone has posted this yet but since we are talking about custom Pops! of ourselves, here is a Pop Icon Generator. It is in Japanese but it is pretty easy to navigate through since they also have the English translation underneath. Just start by clicking on the pink button.

Postby **JsinLegacy** » Sun Sep 13, 2015 4:41 pm

hopefully these will be out next weekend when I visit Vegas again. And hopefully they'll be at the one in Vegas

Got a rough eta from some store associates today. He should be around in a week or two, closer to the BluRay/DVD release if Age of Ultron.

There is one FYE near-ish me (like 40 minutes to an hour away). Would be SUPER cool if they put this one online

Oh man I hope not.

This was going to be a Christmas/birthday gift from my friend because I don't have an FYE around me anymore.

That's interesting. I thought I remember Funko gave one out in a contest on FB or twitter I think last month?

I have no official basis for it. It's just something I've seen posted by people on FB saying they were told it was canceled. I don't want it to be as I am for all things shiny

Postby **Fawk** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 9:32 am

I hope they didnt kill this variant. I already have a space on my shelf reserved for it :P

Postby **minusdatails** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 10:03 am

I really hope this hasn't been canceled, I have been anxiously awaiting this Pop since it was announced!

Postby **lcarus83** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 10:42 am

Yeah I've been looking for it at my FYE with no luck. I was wondering about it as well. I already have a regular Vision and 2 of the Target exclusive Visions lol

. I really don't need a 4th. But I'll get it if I see it. I really like the Vision Pop.

Postby **thedanielwolf** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 10:53 am

FYE's metallic Vision and Gamestop's Black Widow with Cap's shield exclusives just need to hit stores already.
