Smuggler's Bounty - A New Hope 40th Anniversary

Just started the sub today! Love all this hype that's building!

I pretty much forgot what deluxe Pop was in this box until earlier when Funko posted Luke in his speeder on IG. I was going into this box without remembering what was inside and they stole my innocence for a 2nd time! lol

I honestly hope they go back to leaving it a mystery every month. I love Star Wars so I'll never be disappointed because of what they choose to put inside.

I wish they'd go back to the random tshirts. I actually liked THAT being a randomization. Not so much the colors, but actually not knowing which character on a tshirt that we'd get.

The wait is real! I can't wait to see what else is in the box. Would be totally awesome if they previewed a special mystery mini to kick it all off before August release.

There's no R2 in the Mystery Mini line as far as they've shown.

Just sayin'.

That would make my day. No wait, week. Month. Maybe even my year!

I'm not even a hardcore Mini collector and I feel the same way! I love R2 and a Mini would make this my favorite SB so far!

I am also getting excited about this box. I wonder what else will be in it.

I'd love it if they had a mini holo leia over an R2. Like a nice surprise tribute.

They Mystery Minis look great and that would be a great start to the collection! It would also make the box even more awesome then it already is!

I think you may be on to something there. It's puzzling for them to not make R2, even more so with there being a 3PO.

There is always the possibility he's a store exclusive. But I'd like to dream he's an add-in to the box.

Postby **Vegas_Bill** » Sun May 07, 2017 2:18 am

Holo Leia would be a nice surprise

I agree! The Mos Eisley "Wanted" t-shirts have been my favorite so far. That one worked out nice as well since there was a chase figure so I wound up buying more than one box.

I've been trying to save some money, but had to re-up for this box. I got the reminder email today and can't wait to see what Funko has in store for us!

Postby **Treblemdk** » Wed May 10, 2017 2:30 am

I hope it's epic!

I need it compared to the ESB box with the other pop deluxe. I love that Leia is on it - I AM SO EXCITED

Postby **treswright** » Wed May 10, 2017 3:43 pm

Here's a comparison Funko posted on IG:

The Speeder is no doubt taking up a lot of that extra space... but what else might be lurking within? Looks like there's almost room for two Pop Deluxe in there :-D

Postby **Lasd6141** » Wed May 10, 2017 3:45 pm

I joined the box sub specifically for this ! Can't wait for it !

Wow no kidding that box is epic big! I hope they include something extra concidering it's the 40th . Love the art on it

Postby **racheva** » Wed May 10, 2017 3:47 pm

My box now says preparing instead of processing, but I still don't see it charged to my card. I'm hoping all is well, I'm super paranoid about missing this box. It looks awesome!

Postby **Treblemdk** » Wed May 10, 2017 3:53 pm

The email from 5/2 says Your order is now being processed and will ship shortly after 05/15/2017.
So hopefully find out next week!

Holy wow that's a huge sub box. Can't wait to see what's inside.

Just saw this and it looks like it will be a amazing box.

Postby **Celesdragon** » Thu May 11, 2017 9:41 am

I'm curious to see the Jabba box next to the Empire box, for reference on how much bigger that one was to hold the Tauntaun.

Agreed, Im really excited for this box, but, I think they are trying to make it look 'huge' by comparing it to the Jabba box verses the Hoth box. Doesn't make me less excited, but, I see what they're doing

That's what I said! I was like soooo we pick a box that doesn't have a Pop Deluxe to compare it to... #-o

I'll have to check at home to see if I still have the ESB and Jabba boxes (I tend not to save the sub boxes, they take up too much room), if I do I'll take a pic of them posed like that and that'll give us an idea of how NH compares to ESB.

Awesome!!! Appreciate it. I'm super curious. I think I threw mine out - not 100% lol

ol I agree with not saving them.

Postby **Tynett** » Thu May 11, 2017 3:53 pm

yeah, I have 0 space almost for my habits, I mean collections so the boxes are out on their ear, lol

! I usually don't mind getting spoiled but I think I want to savor this boxes surprise.

If Tres doesn't, I can when I get home. I've saved the boxes, the kids use them as blocks for building forts

I did have both boxes, here's a comparison shot. Top photo is the one Funko posted on IG, bottom is the comparison of Jabba to ESB. The NH box is clearly taller than the ESB box, but it does look to me like the ESB box is longer. Depth looks about the same. Not sure what this tells us, if anything lol

Postby **eljefe81** » Fri May 12, 2017 1:30 pm

Thanks Tres! I'm going to conjecture that the size indicates a second vinyl...I'm thinking the Landspeeder is placed so it is up and down, and then to the left or right of it is the other vinyl. Or could just be really wooly socks, what do I know?

Postby **edmomo** » Fri May 12, 2017 1:31 pm

oh wow. that still going to be a huge box then. I'm so stoked for it. Still praying for a mystery mini preview.

OMGGGGG YESSSSSS. That means it is going to be massive. I wonder what other goodies will be inside!

Thanks, Tres for taking a photo

Postby **treswright** » Fri May 12, 2017 1:48 pm

You're welcome!! It is going to be a big box, when I was looking at some of the other boxes I noticed that the Jabba box is actually bigger than most of them to start with. So their comparison pic shows this box is even bigger than one of the previous big boxes :-)

Can't wait to see what's hiding in there :-D

Postby **Lonikins** » Fri May 12, 2017 1:50 pm

Good to know why weren't lying when they used the Jabba box them LOL I wouldn't put it past anyone to use a tiny box to show how "big" the other box is. There's going to be some awesome things in there since it's so large. Thank goodness it closes soon because I want spoilers LOL

Postby **Celesdragon** » Mon May 15, 2017 10:54 am

Oh, thanks for giving us an apple to apple comparison! Now we know this one really is BIG!
