Included with each SODA can is a 4.25” vinyl figure and a collectible disc both with a 1 in 6 chase variant!

Hopefully Funko Hollywood will have the Sodas that went online and sold out today!

CONGRATS! I wanna see what the duo looks like with the POGs! The pictures I see online, they don't even open the bags!!!


Thank you! Here is my picture then ;)

Wow great pull on the chase, that looks way better than I thought.

Congrats, my husband was able to get him. I had no such luck. lol


Congrats to your husband and I'm sure he'll share lol Wishing you luck on the chase, although the common is just as awesome.


Thanks, yeah I hope we get’em (the chase) if not I’ll be fine with it common. lol

Me too. Not a huge fan of the black and white releases Funko does. It makes sense for old characters, so I can see it with Cap'n Crunch, but still feel like they look bland.

I agree, definitely a bigger fan of the color...but still always fun to pull the chase. I don't seem to have much luck with the soda chases, so won't be disappointed with the common on this one that's for sure.

I ordered some Roger Rabbits. I am liking these random Funko Shop releases of the sodas way before other retailers are getting them


I ordered 1 of each and scored the free Freddy...definitely a win-win in my book. Also, liking the random soda releases on the Funko shop, just need to make it a habit of checking the shop more often I guess.


I think the random drops help drive traffic to the site and it is kind of cool as well. You might get lucky and find a hard to find out that you really need because most bots and people don't go to the site unless its a drop that is posted in social media. :freddy3:

So glad it's not just me! Kinda makes me love it more. If they want to give us TBBT sodas at some point, I will be all over that!

A full line of those sodas would be great, especially since I don't have any of the pops.

I've only got the recent SDCC versions of the characters cosplaying. I would get a kick out of them even if they confused me with their real versions! I really want Amy Farah Fowler in her tiara as a soda. I think that line would be great as sodas! I'll add it to the list of the rest of the lines I want as sodas - still hoping for Star Trek!

There are so many soda lines we need at this point! At least BBT sodas wouldn't have to be a huge collection, I'd kind of like them as a smaller group.

Ah yes those recent ones from sdcc, those are neat looking. I forgot about those and they were easy enough to pick up.

Agreed. I don't need the whole expanded character list with variations and all.

Good luck! For your first funko order, you deserve to score a chase!


Hopefully they ship soon! I got an email yesterday that they are behind on shipping and to please be patient. Between that and still waiting for them to ship the previous wave to my favorite mom & pop shop to fill my pre-order I am getting antsy!

I would take just about anything in the Big Bang Theory line. Plenty of room to expand it with previously unreleased characters, too. Or keep it small and just give us our core group of 7.

I'd like the main 7 at the very least, maybe add Stuart in as well? Poor Stuart - always gets forgotten!

I feel ya, but good things come to those who wait!

I still don't have a estimated delivery date, but looking at where they shipped from - honestly, they should've been here today. I could DRIVE to them in just over half an hour to retrieve them in person! But alas - it's the busy season for shipping. If I get them before the holiday, I'll consider myself fortunate!

Hopefully you start seeing movement on your stuff soon! Feels like we are trapped in the waiting game right now! ](*,) lol

I could go for some sodas to start and then if they did a few other characters as pops to follow up.

Yep ... shipping is really tough right now. UPS and FedEx have basically said "we can't handle all this volume" and have decided not to do daily pickups from their normal accounts. I've received tracking notifications from GameStop, Hot Topic, etc that say they were shipped on Monday, yet they haven't even been given to FedEx or UPS yet. They'll come eventually ... :blackeye:

Vendors should just add a step to their process to physically take packages to FedEx instead of relying upon pickups that aren't happening O:)

This doesn't surprise me. I can't imagine the number of packages that they are having to handle at this time. It is probably insane.

Yep ... even with USPS Informed Delivery, they're including the following text at the top of the email ...
"USPS is experiencing unprecedented volume increases and limited employee availability due to the impacts of COVID-19.
We appreciate your patience and remain committed to delivering the holidays to you."

Ah yes those recent ones from sdcc, those are neat looking. I forgot about those and they were easy enough to pick up.


I would take just about anything in the Big Bang Theory line. Plenty of room to expand it with previously unreleased characters, too. Or keep it small and just give us our core group of 7.


I could go for some sodas to start and then if they did a few other characters as pops to follow up.


Yeah, if they did people like Stuart or Burt as con exclusives, I would love that! Keep the main line intact, and then treat extras as special!

Congrats! Now just hope they arrive. I have several things that have not moved in weeks.


I still don't have a estimated delivery date, but looking at where they shipped from - honestly, they should've been here today. I could DRIVE to them in just over half an hour to retrieve them in person! But alas - it's the busy season for shipping. If I get them before the holiday, I'll consider myself fortunate!

Hopefully you start seeing movement on your stuff soon! Feels like we are trapped in the waiting game right now! ](*,) lol


Yep ... shipping is really tough right now. UPS and FedEx have basically said "we can't handle all this volume" and have decided not to do daily pickups from their normal accounts. I've received tracking notifications from GameStop, Hot Topic, etc that say they were shipped on Monday, yet they haven't even been given to FedEx or UPS yet. They'll come eventually ... :blackeye:

Vendors should just add a step to their process to physically take packages to FedEx instead of relying upon pickups that aren't happening O:)


](*,) No kidding! I have things showing up that never even showed movement, and other stuff that I didn't get a notification on in the first place. Makes it fun to open the front door and see what's on my doorstep!

I got my first recent shipment of soda today - Michelangelo from the TMNT line. I love him, but alas...common. So far I'm 0/3 on TMNT chases. Good thing I like the general look of the line regardless! Donnie and Freddy Mercury should be here soon, hopefully, keeping my fingers crossed!

Wow great pull on the chase, that looks way better than I thought.


I got so lucky. I went up for pop people soft open, and funko employee pulled two and both chase. It is awesome, but would love the common.

See that's a good idea with the con exclusives.

It is a better problem to have. It would be even better if it was a figure sold in common retailers easier to trade I bet for a common one.

Of course, watch it happen, at which point we'll be complaining that it's so hard to get those extra special characters! lol

Better make it a shared exclusive in that case so we are a little safer.

They're definitely there, but my last 2 purchases of soda were all commons! Guess that means I'm due for my next round, right? lol

Sort of the same: bought 3 Muttleys and 3 Supermans (at separate times, big mistake...) and got all commons. Did the same thing (3) with Dick Dastardly and finally got the chase.

I figured instead of buying a Chase for $40-50 to resellers, might as well try my luck by buying 2-3 at Funko Hollywood each time. Not sure if it's better tho.

Oh, definitely! At the very least, shared with funkoshop! There are entirely too many cons where we don't make it, either to the con or the booth! Let's not set ourselves up to fail right off the bat!

Ouch, sorry on the common pulls! Yeah, I think the way to go on these is to purchase a few together, increase the chance. The chases I've gotten from Hollywood were all when I bought at least 2.

I think that's what I'll start doing on the ones I really want the chase for. Trying not to go super crazy on these so I don't have random soda cans everywhere!
