A Gift From Funko

Postby **jester00** » Sun Jan 22, 2017 12:00 pm

Received my gift earlier this week. I got the smugglers bounty box. I was hoping for a DC box, but this one is ok also. Don't know any Star Wars funko collectors in my area though. So it may end up being a gift for someone

Well said

Yesss pawn the dupes to friends lol

I'm slowly converting my friends, work friends, the nurses at my hospital and my chemo buddies to Funko collecting :roflmao:

I love that it covers such a wide array of POP culture that it can be appealing to almost anyone :cheers:

It worked as intended for Funko. I got the Smuggler's box and gave it to a friend at work who started buying the Star Wars line recently. He didn't know about the sub box and has since signed up.

I got the Smugglers Bounty Cantina Box I have subbed to Collector Corps and Legion of Collectors already, but decided not to go with the Star Wars box, after getting my box I ended up subbing so now I have all three of the sub boxes lol

Mine was shipped out on the 12th but the tracker information stopped working. Guess I shouldn't be too worried if it never comes since it was free after all.

Got the Jabba box. At least was free or would be a bit mad, as a hat AND a mug is pretty awful. Nice gesture tho, even if some got crap boxes like Jabba/Guardians.

Would gladly accept more free gifts. Thanks Funko.

Finally got my box !

I thought it was gonna be a MCC box because of the MCC email, but I received a Smuggler's Bounty - The Resistance box.

Thanks funko!

I got the bounty box. Seems like they sent their excess star war boxes out as gifts to everyone...

Im not a huge fan of Star Wars but I'm glad they preview boxes before collectors can decide if they want it or not.

Well I got the First Order box as the gift. I already have it and was really hoping for a LoC box but hey it was free! Maybe I'll get the chase pilot this time. And I'll give Phasma to a friend of mine, he'll love it. So its not what I was hoping for but you know what I'm still incredibly grateful, thank you funko for the nice gift!

I particularly like seeing the POP before they are out so I can decide whether I want it or not

Got the email my Post Office had the box. So I went and picked it up. And while I'm normally don't enjoy Star Wars I did get the one box I loved. Bounty Hunters

This was a wonderful idea, but the execution of it has been poor. I was happy when I received the e-mail from Funko, but disappointed when it arrived today. I am another subscriber who received a box I had already purchased. I have accounts with Smugglers Bounty and Collector Corps, so based on the contents of the e-mail Funko sent me, I assumed that I would receive something from the D.C. sub box, but instead, I received a duplicate The Force Awakens box. Im not sure what I'm supposed to do with it.

No kidding. Anything free is great! For awhile, I was the only collector amongst my friends or the only one who showed interest with Funkos. Every few months, someone keeps getting added to my "I collect Funkos now" circle. I always have extras for those friends.

I know exactly what you mean. My sister has never seen a Funko Pop, but her favorite story character is Frodo. I was ecstatic to see the new Frodos on yesterdays Toy Fair "Leak." Guess what she will be receiving for Christmas next year???

FINALLY!!!!!! I got my gift! It was a Star Wars Resistance Box! I don't know how long I've wanted a Flocked Chewie so thank you Funko!

Postby **hawklovespurple** » Tue Jan 24, 2017 7:02 pm

Mine came in the mail today $\:D/$ I got the Resistance box which was awesome because that was one that I kept thinking about ordering--love that flocked Chewie!! Thanks Funko!

Postby **Jezter** » Tue Jan 24, 2017 8:33 pm

Mine was SUPPOSED to come in the mail today, but only the DHL has updated info, and no info on the USPS side. We didn't get any mail today though, so maybe it's a USPS thing, or it just didn't get here yet. Hopefully tomorrow.

Postby **SCF** » Tue Jan 24, 2017 9:14 pm

I received mine today. I also got the Star Wars resistance box. Kind of funny since I have ordered one SB box since it's inception and it was the resistance box.
Not mad at all as it was a great gesture by Funko to send these out. I will be giving the items as gifts to a couple SW fans I know unless someone here wants to trade for them.

Postby **emcee** » Wed Jan 25, 2017 5:17 am

Got my box today, it was a Jabba's Palace box. The only other SB boxes I have are Death Star and Rogue One so I'm glad I didn't get a duplicate, but I'll probably be looking to trade this one.

It appears that the boxes went out in sub waves. It seem that those reporting now are getting Star Wars boxes. A while back most were receiving Marvel boxes.

Hm. Interesting, most people I saw in the original roll out got SW. Maybe it was partially roll out by box type and partially regional to where they ship from?

Don't know for sure ... I just noticed how they seemed to be reported in groups.

Seems like a lot of people did. I'm not complaining though!

great items to save for toy runs too

Postby **Jezter** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 5:35 pm

Got my box today, The Force Awakens Smugglers Bounty! Now, I don't collect Star Wars at all, and a fuzzy Chewbacca isn't going to convince me to start, BUT I am tempted to keep the shirt. However, I will most likely be looking to trade for a LOC or MCC box I don't have. Still amazed Funko did this, pretty damn awesome!

Postby **ghostedaway** » Thu Jan 26, 2017 7:25 pm

I got the SB Resistance box as well. Pop and shirt are really cool. Thank you Funko!

Postby **FearlessPhotog** » Fri Jan 27, 2017 9:26 am

I got the Ant-Man box, not the best box from MCC imo, and the pop was badly crushed. Oh well, still cool as it was free!

Postby **funkystark** » Fri Jan 27, 2017 9:39 am

My box showed up yesterday got the Jabba box, thanks Funko! And thank you from my brother in law

He loves it

Postby **POPtor WHO** » Fri Jan 27, 2017 10:04 am

got mine yesterday. I got the Force Awakens box with Chrome Phasma and the Special Forces TIE Pilot, which is awesome because I got the regular TIE Pilot with my SB sub! I was hoping for either this one or the chance at the variant Snaggletooth so I'm very happy! I also got the FO Snowtrooper Tee while my first box had the Phasma shirt. So happy to get different items, makes the gift even sweeter.

Thanks Funko!

How does one subscribe to Funko? I don't have a credit card, or PayPal.

Do you have a debit card? That's how mine is hooked up. If you don't there is nothing you can do.
