I am very excited for them actually!
I love the packaging idea especially! I am already a huge VHS collector alongside Funko and LEGO and this is awesome!
Here's the article about them:

Seems like another interesting product. Will have to see how well people receive it.

First thing that came through my mind when I saw the glam is the Playmobil x Funko collab some years back. :)

I'll need to see it in person before making a decision. I do like the packaging. May only try to get a Freddy, unless they do a license that is a must have lol

The packaging and membership card are extremely cool.
Guessing the figures are 4-5" if these are standard VHS tapes?

I like the case (and card?) more than the figure. I wonder what the fee is for returning it late… :-k

Hmmm not sure how I’m feeling about this new set I also was a little hesitant with Sodas, but I love them now. I do like the packaging and the boxes look like they will be great on space saving so I could be a great niche market.

I noticed the Playmobile look too. I like this initial release and may pick it up if I am able to get near Fun On The Run in San Diego.

Interested to see where this line goes. I hope we get some real obscure characters in this one.

Man I miss those days, although to be fair I hit up Hollywood Video more times than Blockbuster (which was my loss because Gold Master Chief was at Blockbuster and I missed him originally).

Looking forward to when the truck pulls to SDCC! Man the line is gonna be LONG

Will still try to get it at SDCC for the sake of it being Freddy/an SDCC memory but otherwise, will probably not add any more to my collection - unless it's Pennywise, of course! The style is not for me.

I'll probably get the one from Fun on the Run to see if I like them in person. They look cute in the video, but I'm sure as with the rest of my collection I will limit purchasing these to only the lines I collect.

We may see one of these as Fundays swag if I had to make an educated guess :)
Hi, my name is Shady or as some would say Randi with an i

I have been collecting for about 8 years now - I attended my first Fundays in 2017!

Very first pop - Godzilla (Burning)

I currently collect:
*Anything that looks interesting!
*Maleficent* - would someday LOVE to own a Maleficent dragon proto!
MLP - Pony Power!
Some Disney, Sonic, Godzilla & Freddys!

Gotta say I am a fan of the packaging, now what would really be cool is if the card had some code for a digital copy of the show or movie, it’s the one thing I would have hoped for when they did the pop albums

That'd be neat! But would probably make a larger price tag too
Looks like these ones are just using the card as a "you got the chase" disc like sodas but it could be a cool change!

It's hard to tell from the instagram video but it seems that the case is about the size of a cardboard VHS or maybe slightly smaller! Hard to tell!

Gives you a pretty good idea on the size. I was hoping it would be an actual VHS size, but it's definitely smaller :(
