This is the only droid that I would buy the box for; Funko needs to do KotOR pops! The recent Black Series figure and upcoming Gentle Giant statue of Revan make me think that KotOR pops are an absolute possibility, just not likely for this box.

I would guess there would be no chance at all of this, but I would be very amused if they used this box to introduce a Wuher pop :)

I'm really hoping we get a shirt in this box. A schematic of a pop!droid would be awesome. They could even do a couple variants. That, plus either two pops or a pop and an Artoo mystery mini as someone has said and maybe another small item, like a plush?

What are the chances we could get some HK-47 love in this box?
I bought a Mystery Mini and thought it was cool. Now I have shelves covered in Funko vinyl products. What Happened?

I met Kieron Gillen (Darth Vader writer) at C2E2 and asked him about the possibility of Triple Zero and BT-1 in pop form and he said that anything could happen since they just made the action figures (kotobukiya art-fx+) for SWC. Here's to hoping for 2 of my favorite droids being made into pops [-o<

I have to agree that HK-47 will likely never happen, unless he is introduced to the canon someday. He was one of my favorite droids back in the day, but not one I am interested in getting as a Pop right now, completely due to his absence in the canon. I feel the same way about everyone else currently stuck in legends.

I don't think we will ever see Dorbz in the subscription boxes, since it looks like they will be D23 and Disney Store exclusives only, but I would be interested in seeing some in the boxes.

Chuck Wendig tried to make HK-47 canon in the novel aftermath trilogy but Lucas film wouldn't let him...and that's how Mister Bones came to be. [-(

In regard to HK-47, both Hasbro and Gentle Giant are making legends characters, so I see no reason why Funko wouldn't. I just doubt it would happen in a box not specifically themed to it.

At a time when many other licensees were making X-Men merchandise, I correctly predicted that there would be new Pops as well. I see this as no different; If the licensor obviously as no problem with it, then what is to stop Funko?

The three droids I'm most hoping for are AP-5 (Star Wars Rebels), 2-1B (The Empire Strikes Back) or EV-9D9 (Return Of The Jedi).

Those are new to me but based on the images alone they would make a killer set of two in a sub box!! I would be all over that.

They are from the new-ish Marvel Darth Vader comic series. A pair of sarcastic murder-obsessed jet-black droids with lots of firepower, what's not to love?

I wasn't too excited about Droids until I looked at a list to refresh my memory. Droideka would be awesome! But wouldn't​ mind a medical or scout Droid. Or anything else really. =D

Hoping they have the new mold of R2 in this. On the funkast they talked about the new way of doing droid mold where the dome will bobble rather than from the legs. Excited to see what this will contain. Hoping there is a 2nd pop of AP-5.
Call me toDD

Pop Count: 425 (290(?) are Star Wars)
1st Pop: R2-D2
Most recent:Holiday Yoda
Grails: Holo Darth Maul/Vader, Boushh Unmasked, Biggs

Who is ready for the first reveal from this box? I'm thinking we'll see it tomorrow or Friday once the Disney box closes. Seems like they try to not steal the thunder from their other boxes.

I've been waiting a long time to see the new astromech mold and this seems as good a way as any to debut it. I would just hope that there is something else special about the R2 if he's the pop (people still want a mini projected Leia, after all), so that people who aren't subbed can grab a standard R2 with the new dome bobble when it releases.

YES! Definitely love that idea of making the top bobble instead of the legs. I can't wait to see what droids are in this box! There are so many options...

I don't think it will be the new mold of R2. I'm expecting to see that as part of the TLJ line, since it looks like he will get more screen time this time around.

Lol, there's a new thread about the teaser videos. I feel like "trailer" would be better than "teaser" since it does seem like it never really correlates to the main items in the box
