I was actually curious about Collector Corp and Legion of Collectors. Have you been happy with those? Is the annual prize worth it?

I personally don't subscribe (im mostly a Movies and Video Game POP collector), but im apart of a local Funko group and everyone is really pleased with the boxes.

I also see a lot of trading/selling of the extra content so people are never at a total loss.

So far the only annual prize I know of is the Founders Captain America trophy thing.

No clue why I never signed up the moment it was announced, but the Star Wars Smuggler's Bounty boxes have all been fantastic if you collect SW Pops.

I didn't sign up until the Cantina box (3rd one) but was fortunate enough to pick up the 2 previous boxes at Wondercon a few months ago so i'm caught up. Such a good deal.

I have Pop in a Box. Their packaging isn't the best thing and even the .us site still ships from the UK. I have seen some videos of un-boxing where the 12 pop option seems to ship in a much bigger box and the contents seem to arrive in better condition. This past month I got my order (2 pops as they only send you want you want from what's in stock) and it had 2 exclusives (K-3P0 and R2-L3, (Star Wars)) but the boxes were a bit dinged up. I can't really complain though as I needed them for my collection and I got 2 pops with a value of roughly $41 for $20. If you don't mind the boxes not being pristine then Pop In A Box is a good deal. They do need a website overhaul though!

I also get the Smugglers Bounty box and I have not been let down yet...except for the chase for Blue Snaggletooth. I have a small army of Red ones now though...sigh

You can't go wrong with those subscription boxes! I prder which ever ones I think I will want, and I personally love Pop in a box, I got the Frost Giant Loki from them about a month ago, shipping takes forever and the box had a slight ding in it but nothing to worry about. I have never done the supscription for Pop in a box, but the Marvel and Smugglers bounty have never disappointed me

Is there still a chance for a blue snaggletooth if I order the smugglers bounty box as a past box?

Pop in a box is good if you are not picky about your Pops, as in you have a large wanted list. I do not, I have a few Pops that I really want, but I am not buying Pops of franchises I do not particularly like or know about. I subscribed for 3 Pops in the last 50% offer, and after almost 1 month nothing came. I asked when I would receive something, because I had stopped buying Pops wondering if they'd send me the same ones. They were short and not very nice in the answer (which did not answer me at all), and just wanted to refund me. I said it was ok, i could wait if it was the case, and suddenly they updated my profile with one Pop being sent to me. One Pop would not make the offer worth to me because of shipping, but Ok I wanted to go on and see the surprise. 2 weeks more and the Pop hadn't been posted, so I asked one more time and they told me they made a mistake and there was no Pop for me, and that I could either have my money back or choose a Pop from their shop up to 10 pounds.
It ruined the surprise and the experience, and I lost the offer I had, which could've been useful now with the new Pops coming out. I was highly disappointed, so personally I do not recommend. I get better value off Amazon or eBay. Now if you really want any Pop and have a giant wishlist, it might help you fill up your collection.

I subscribe to Pop in a Box as well as the three "powered by Funko" subscription boxes. All of them are worth it in my opinion. Pop in a Box is especially good for filling in pieces you wouldn't mind having but either don't get around to or keep forgetting about. The Marvel, Star Wars and DC boxes are all excellent and like most folks on the thread I've been extremely happy with them. Hope that helps!

I love my Smugglers Bounty boxes! Every once in a while, I up the size of the t-shirt and share with my hubby, or I share something from the box with my daughter. I just got my first Pop In a Box. I used the 50% off promo and got a box of 12. I loved everything I got! My River Song was decapitated, but I wrote them, and am waiting to hear back. :-D I think I'll keep it for another month and see what I think.

As far as I know, there is nothing like POP-in-a-Box. All other sub boxes will have various items in it besides a POP, and that's if you get a POP that month.
Funko's boxes are every other month and will get you at least one POP.

Between my wife, myself, and my adult kids, we've subscribed to just about every box you could imagine. And through the years... the ONLY box we subscribe to now, are the 3 Powered By Funko boxes. And they just keep getting better.

I do wish they hade a "just the pop" option... because their hats don't fit us, and at my age, I'm not that big on comic t-shirts. The patches mean nothing to me, and the pins get thrown in a box to put on a lanyard at cons. The pop is the only thing I really like in the box. So I wish they had a "pop only" option to cut down on price.
