unlikely I know but if any of you only want the Iron Man and not the other thing in the box please let me know as i'd very happily take it off your hands.

Wow! One of my favorite boxes to date! Really digging the shirt and like Yoko said I hope we get more designs like that. The second Pop! is not the one I wished it was but it's amazing too! I'm so excited for this box to arrive.

Pretty happy about this box. I mean, the spoiled pop is one I've wanted since I started collecting, and the second Pop is one I much prefer over the MCU version, so I can't complain about either of them at all. I was actually hoping the second Pop was the one on the shirt, BUT I am glad we get that on the shirt, instead of the patch and Pin.

Spoiler: show
I kind of hope they continue the first appearance direction and give us a lot of other characters, like Thor, Nick Fury, Hulk, Hawkeye, I really want comic versions of them in place of MCU versions, personally. Although I also want an updated MCU version of Nick Fury, was never able to get the original.

I don't want either of those pops, but I have to say this is one of the best MCC boxes to me up there with Hulkbuster and Secret Wars

Like I said about the Iron Man, so many people have been asking for these pops and I'm glad they're out there.


Also that shirt is AMAZING, must have.

The shirt, patch, and pin are among my favorites. The Pops, however, are just okay in my opinion. (Though I like the second WAY better than the first)

I'm glad this was not the second item, I would have been mad because the sub box pops end up basically costing the price of the box itself and this certain item should be common in my opinion with how many people want it.

Great box!! Classic Thor is probably Toy Tokyo at NYCC, 500 limited pc, Starbucks exclusive or something.

Great box tho, 2 pops, shirt and an excellent Pin is more than worth my $30.

This box is about average to me. The best item might be the shirt. Looks cool. The 2nd Pop is one I never seriously considered as a possibility. It's ok, but not one I would want. I feel like there were many more options that would of been better. The patch and pin are some of the least interesting ones to date, IMO. Also, where was the comic book? Its absence was glaring. Is this the first time it's been missing? I can't remember. I thankfully didn't order the box. If I had, I would of been disappointed. It's nowhere close to being one of the worst boxes, but still nothing exciting about it.

Um, I just realized that they are totally lowballing us here! No additional figures besides the POPs and no comic, what gives Funko?

On a different note I actually like the patch, but I hate the pin. It's like when they included a Vader POP from Empire in the Death Star box, even though Empire is the only original trilogy movie WITHOUT a Death Star in it!

While at first, I saw the second POP (my favorite Avenger) and flipped. After taking a closer look, it continues to fall farther and farther down the totem pole.

It looks like a pretty good box to me. No, B:TAS quality from LoC, but still pretty good. It helps that Iron Man is a pop lol lol

How are they lowballing us? We paid roughly $30 (unless you aren't in the U.S.) for two exclusive Pop!s, a t-shirt, a patch, and a pin. That's $20 (could be considered $30 since they are exclusives), $20 for the shirt, and $5 give or take for the patch and pin. There are only a few boxes I can think of that had 2 Pop!s, a shirt, and something extra. Not trying to start an argument just don't understand how anyone could think they are lowballing us. :-s

I have to say I am confused about what folks expect from these boxes. 2 Pops, both comic book based which I think is super cool to begin with and on top of that both are all new unique sculpts/costumes and not just pose variants. This is only the 2nd Iron Man comic armor sculpt to be done, 3rd comic figure if you count the RI Comic-Con stealth armor. Vision looks great, super vibrant design and really fun pose.

Shirt is nice and I dig the idea of classic covers recreated in pop form for these boxes. That would be a great unique theme to run with in the future. Patch and pin are ok though maybe out of the box's theme. I would say that classic Loki would have been a better choice for the pin character since he was the reason behind the box theme, maybe a Wasp or classic Thor patch even is the next box is Thor.

Plus we get a comic? So that's 2 pops, shirt, patch, pin & comic in the box.

2 exclusive pops $30, shirt $15, $4 comic, $10 for patch/pin = $59. Even if you wanted to argue $10 retail on pop you are looking at a $49, pretty darn solid value if you ask me.

Just my humble opinion, your milage may vary...

I definitely agree that Funko is not lowballing us. The Sub boxes definitely have lived up to the price.

I'm definitely looking forward to this box. The T-shirt is definitely on point! =)

I rewatched the video, and there's definitely no comic. I think people are confusing the spoiler card on the table for a comic book. It would of been cool if they could have released an old Avengers comic with a Popified cover. I missed opportunity.

Photo review and unboxing of the box is up on Marvel Toy News, and you can see there's no comic book--just the contents card. I wonder if this is a one-time omission for this month because nothing suitable was being printed this month?

Really? Two pops, a shirt, a patch, and a pin is the normal formula for a sub box. It's what most of the Smugglers Bounty boxes were too. It's nice that most of the Marvel boxes had a comic, but it's really not decreasing the value of the box by much - 3.99 or 4.99 at most.

Most specialty/exclusive pops go for 11.99 or 12.99. So I would put the value of the pops at 12.50 each. The shirt is a 14.99 value. Then you have the patch and pin - similar items go for 1.99 - 6.99 each. So you've really already hit the $50 threshold of projected value, without the comic. And my estimates are pretty conservative.

Heck, most Funko direct Pops (SDCC, Funko-shop, etc.) are $15 each both at the show/site and with shared partners. So even with the generous $12.50 estimate you are being way more than fair.

The box has 2 Pops and a T-shirt plus the standard patch and pin. I do not understand what more people want and expect for $25.

And my estimates are pretty conservative.


Heck, most Funko direct Pops (SDCC, Funko-shop, etc.) are $15 each both at the show/site and with shared partners. So even with the generous $12.50 estimate you are being way more than fair.

The box has 2 Pops and a T-shirt plus the standard patch and pin. I do not understand what more people want and expect for $25.


Didn't mean to offend you guys... My OPINION, this box seems a little light based on what they've provided in the past. Usually there is one other item, especially since there is no comic this time. Again...my opinion, that's all.

Really? Two pops, a shirt, a patch, and a pin is the normal formula for a sub box. It's what most of the Smugglers Bounty boxes were too. It's nice that most of the Marvel boxes had a comic, but it's really not decreasing the value of the box by much - 3.99 or 4.99 at most.

Most specialty/exclusive pops go for 11.99 or 12.99. So I would put the value of the pops at 12.50 each. The shirt is a 14.99 value. Then you have the patch and pin - similar items go for 1.99 - 6.99 each. So you've really already hit the $50 threshold of projected value, without the comic. And my estimates are pretty conservative.

No worries, no offense taken! Seen a lot to belly aching on FB about this box and hard pressed to figure out what more folks would expect for $25. Maybe a comic book, but that would be about it and to me the comics are mostly filler so no loss there. As always, YMMV...

Oh, not offended at all! Just a little kerfuzzled as to what people were expecting in this box. The only thing missing from the usual box is the comic - and let's be honest, no one orders the box for the comic.

Whaaaaat! I thought that's what everyone gets the boxes for! I wish they would just do boxes of 4-5 comics in each and nothing else!! :^o
