Sounds like some lucky people where ever that was.

Normal with hero would have been neat also. Not that they can't do that in the future also with a different look. Perhaps even in a superhero outfit.

I'd be shocked if we didn't get a stan soda sdcc exclusive

I feel like we'll need a new Stan soda at least once a year as a con exclusive from here on out.

Honestly, given how badly I want the Black Widow set, I'm grateful for it. Especially given my odds for the lottery! [-o<

Yep, most definitely the criteria is not for everybody. Hoping we get something over here as well.

Win or no win...u should be ok. The ECCC MOTU sodas were available until Friday and they had a lower LE count.

Yep, the count is too high to not be. The Sleestak on the other hand, well good luck to everyone on that. Definitely hope I get picked for the lotto as well.

Postby **renardchua** » Mon Mar 29, 2021 12:59 am

Sleestak and probably Rocketeer is most probably lotto win or bust.

But hopefully the Rocketeer is not to appealing for people since it doesn’t have a fhase so that the odds in securing one is higher. lol

That's what I'm hoping for. It's the chase that scares me, since I really want the set for this. Hoping some friends will be willing to purchase in the open sales and help my odds...! [-o<

That's what I keep telling myself, so I'm glad to hear it from other funatics! Just wish she'd bee shared with someone else, easier to recruit purchasers from my non-funatic crowd! lol

Agreed, the low LEs for this round are worthy of stressing over! Good luck, fingers crossed that you get lucky with the lotto!

Oh, that's a really good point about the Rocketeer! I have a friend who really wants that one, and we were figuring it was lottery or no. But maybe, just maybe, there is a chance!

I won one! We're very excited! :freddy2:

There were a couple we didn't have a chance to enter ... like the all 4 Huckleberry Hounds (we're missing Red); and the NYCC Freddy; but it seemed like these were much more fair than the ones that were done in that Pez group before for the LE stuff.

Yeah, I'm sure they'll be lottery. Unfortunately not so lucky when it comes to the whole lottery thing, but hoping price won't be insane on the secondary market.

Most of the contest had time restraints, limits to the first 10 people who entered, or required you to be a completionist of some kind. Hardly fair to everyone, unless you fit one of these categories. Congrats on the win tho.

there really hasn't been much attention paid to the boards lately.

Those were a bit on the rough side. Unless you've already picked up every release to date and managed to track down every chase/con figure then most of the contests were unattainable to participate in.

The lag in there boards has not helped much either. Personally I would love to see Soda gets it's own section here and not just be a topic under vinyl. That would probably get my attention piqued again...

kind of one of those catch 22's really. they don't give much attention to the boards because the boards are slow, but the boards get slow when Funko doesn't pay any attention to us. like for example i was locked out of my account for almost 2 months because apparently this place has no active admins currently, i couldn't recover my password, make a new account and all of my messages to the admins were ignored. stuff like that really can't be good for keeping a community growing and healthy. if it wasn't for a friend directly messaging one of the Mods i'd never have gotten my account back.

That's a bit much for most people, not everybody can just keep picking up cases for that one chase or throw out a good amount to just out right buy it from say ebay.

Right? That's why I had such high hopes for it. I'll do what I can with what I have to work with though, and just keep my fingers crossed while I don't need them for typing!
