There is also a contest for premier tickets along with round trip flight and hotel here: https://www.funko.com/blog/article/3449 ... making-fun

For info purposes: There was a poll to enter to buy tickets to the premier on the boards here: viewtopic.php?f=65&t=85045, but they are no longer accepting entries.

Woo hoo! Can't wait to see this one!

Funko has been part of my life since 2011, when I picked up my first pop. I have attended San Diego Comic Con every year since then and always visited the Funko booth first. I enjoy seeing all the friendly faces of the staff members, busily stocking and selling those prized possessions. To those lucky enough to attend the making of Funko, I stand in awe. Congratulations.

Definitely interested in this film

[Alleycat]

Awesome cast!

[Cccustomspop]

Can’t wait!

[Jalapenopete]

Sounds exciting especially with all the folks listed o man

[Shinfo13]

I know this will have very limited appeal to people who aren't funatics already so I feel like it really was made for the community. I mean, toy collectors in general may be interested, but no way would my mom or any of my non-collecting friends want to watch it.

Very interested to see where it ends up for streaming or maybe even for purchase from the Funko Shop.

I’m really excited to see it. But I’m a funatic

I cant wait to see it. I also believe it is a great way for Funko to market their products. For example, if you are looking for investors, or new licenses, and someone says... "they're cute... but have they been around very long? What else do they do? And does anyone really collect them?" They can send a link to the video and they can get all their questions answered.

it'll be nice to see the history on video....hopefully i'm in the background somewhere!

[Toronto]

I've been searching but is there any rules and regulations regarding the contest for the trip and flight?

Specifically who it is open to?

[Deaf Funko]

I’m really excited to see it. But I’m a funatic

[vhsu16]

Oooooo...this is exciting
