Got mine in the mail yesterday! Unfortunately the one sheet damaged part of the Taunton box (yes, rabid IN boxer). But love love love this. May be my new favorite Pop period. So well done and the Taunton is as cute as can be!

Can my fellow in-boxers commemorate Funko for making the Han and Taun Taun box modular and easier to display for a larger pop? It's the width of 2 regular pop boxes side to side, and the length of two back to back. Perfect!

This is by far one of my favorite sub boxes yet! I love the Han Taun Pop! It's so big but looks amazing! I always end up seeing spoilers for the boxes either by accident or on purpose before I get my box so I always let my wife open it up because it is a surprise for her. She is stealing my Wampa and taking him to work with her to live on her desk. She was carrying it around the house with the Wampa under one arm (Sir Fluffington) and our Pomeranian under the other arm lol I was really surprised at how soft it is and I love that he has little claws! I liked the design on the socks but I haven't taken them out yet to see quality, how they fit, etc. Part of me wishes that they had gone with the ships design they showed on the card. I sub to loot wear socks from loot crate so more fun socks for me to wear on the weekend are always welcome (I don't wear "fun" socks to work because people might start to wonder if they see the mailman walking up with a pair of nerdy socks on) lol

Got my box yesterday and I'm so delighted! The Wampa is adoooooooorable. It is so soft and I just want to bring him around with me everywhere. Of course the Han/TaunTaun is amazing and luckily it snowed last night so I will be doing a photoshoot with him soon. And the socks are always nice - gotta say I loved the initial concept a lot more than what we got, but I love socks so I'm not disappointed.

Finally got mine yesterday! Love the pop, haven't tried the socks yet, and the Wampa is very soft. The face is a little off, like they kind of crossed a Wampa with an Abominable Snowman or something, but the kids will love it.

You better post pics of the Tauntaun in the snow Lonikins!

Had the same issue. Fortunately it was very minor, but it seemed like they wedged the Rebels teaser one sheet in between the cardboard and the plastic.

I concur. Now just need to wait for a Pop protector to be made that can fit it!! I'm assuming the ones currently available from the likes of Retroprotection and I've Got Protection will not fit this.

I'm hoping Funko recognizes how awesome the box is and strives to make things a liiiiitle more modular.

LOL that is because it's on our deck, so no one goes out there in the winter. And I hope he doesn't either - it's only 20* ;)

Maybe they gave a lot away with post holiday gift boxes...I wonder if they even have enough past boxes to set up the Funko booth that sells sub boxes at conventions (not "the" actual Funko booth for con exclusives). :-k

What I saw earlier this week was quite a few different sizes available. Mostly S-M-L were gone but still had to be a ton of XXL-XS etc. left. I was just wondering if the other sub-boxes do the same thing and remove the older boxes at some point. If so I better get on the ones I want.

Well ECCC and the rest of Con season is coming. I wonder if they have less of the older boxes and they have to take them offline so they can bring them to cons? Would be awkward to have people buy them online during a con and suddenly not have enough to fill orders.

That is probably part of it...also, they just sent a bunch of free boxes out to members...that seems like an inventory purge.
