Personally, I would love nothing more than a new Lando in disguise and Max Rebo. Though based on the Smuggler's Bounty poll it sounds like Han in carbonite is the hands down favorite. Though they could always save that one for an Empire Strikes Back box. Carbonite Han and then Bespin Leia, General Veers, or maybe even Lobot!

Did someone say Han in carbonite?

Of course the problem here as was mentioned above is... how would Funko make him bobble?

Maybe the same way R2 "bobbles"?? On some sort of legs that hold it up

GREAT IDEA!!!! You made e believer out of me! What better follow up to the Bounty Hunter box than the bounty itself?

I don't think Funko is presently licensed to do a Star Wars dorbz!

I personally want Lando. I never got the original one in hopes this version would be made.

Hoping it's the Max Rebo band, but preparing my body for Lando in disguise.

Jabba needs girlfriend.....

So we got two tfa boxes. Which makes sense. Then we got a cantina box. Episode iv. Then bounty hunters, episode v. And now jabba's palace, episode vi. So what comes next? Episode i trade Federation? Or will they keep up the original trilogy pandering? Or maybe something for rebels.

Also anyone know why collector corps comes with a comic book but smugglers' bounty doesn't?

Postby **Cheshire** » Tue May 24, 2016 1:34 pm

Maybe because the publisher for Star Wars comics comes from Marvel and that would mean working on license agreement between Disney corp and Marvel publishers/distribution.

Also on top of that the current comic lines don't match up well with the release dates of these themed boxes. The release dates are all over and there are about 5? Different arcs going on right now.

I don't know for certain but that would be my guess.

Oh please let there be a Max Rebo! I've been hoping for him since the first SB box.

I guess I'm in the minority, but I don't really want a Max Rebo. It would make sense though for the box. I would like to have a bigger Saliacious B Crumb. I have it in my Jabba set, but it would be cool to have a bigger one.

Funny, Max Rebo and Lando in disguise are the two I'm hoping for! Tho I saw mention of action!Luke as a possibility, too. While I have many Lukes, another is hard to turn down

I would definitely take an action-pose Jedi Luke! But we just got a new Luke in the Rancor set, so....

The new norm for Smuggler's Bounty seems to be including Action Pose Pops, which is...fine, I suppose? But between the Unvaulted Jedi Luke, the Rancor Luke, and the upcoming Endor Luke, that's THREE Lukes from RotJ. I don't think a fourth is at all necessary or even wanted, especially when we've only gotten ONE Lando.

Still, Funko loves throwing us curveballs with SB. After Snaggletooth and IG-88, who knows what they'll throw into this one lol

There also seems to be a trend of including one better known character and one more ~obscure one, when there are two pops. Like Ben with the Snaggletooths and Boba Fett with IG-88. That being said, Lando is a well known character and would be fine with a member of the band (Max Rebo himself!) or another denizen of the palace.

Saelt-Marae would make for a slick looking POP!.

I wouldnt worry to much, They could do a The Modal Nodes vs. The Max Rebo Band box

Postby **BillyLouis** » Mon Jun 06, 2016 9:02 pm

My guesses:

Han in Carbonite shirt.
Lando in disguise POP!
EV-9D9 POP!
Jabba pin or patch.
Gamorrean guard pin or patch.

I like these predictions! I would be quite happy if this was the box. It is sad to see no Max Rebo, but maybe he'll turn up later. A Lando in disguise would be fantastic! If there's one thing there is always more of is Star Wars POPs

I can't seem to pull up the page to order the next box

Postby **Ramswinckel** » Thu Jun 09, 2016 4:13 pm

If there's only 1 pop Lando in disguise has to be the favorite. Maybe we'll get a Han in carbonite plush! lol

Excited about this sub box. Hope to see Han In Carbonite in Pop!
And maybe a Jabba in Dorbz form...I can hope.

Postby **sdcccrasher** » Sat Jun 11, 2016 12:15 am

It would be great if we could receive a Star Wars Dorbz. I know they have been working on obtaining rights. What a great surprise if it happened in our Smuggler's Bounty box.

If this box ends up with a Carbonite Han or a Jabba Dorbz this'll be the first SB box I'll hate not having.

Curious what carbonite Hans will look like
