Best soda reveals to date... The bar was really set high... especially with the Motu and GM merch.

True! All of them are so epic. Plus they switched up what we expect from the Sodas by having some that have no chase! It's a cool change to the experience and maybe will lead to more retailer exclusives down the road!

Yeah that was really surprising seeing no chase on some but also a relief!! Can’t wait to get these con ones too!

Just finally got a couple from my local comic shop and pulled a skeletor chase, a he- man common and a Robin common.

Can’t wait for the Wonder Con exclusives to drop. The skeletor and the faker are insane looking.

Just the ones on their IG have the AP's. Normal chase just has the edition size

Yeah. AP is Artist's Proof. Definitely confused me when I saw that the first time

Yeah i know AP ...thats why i was asking. Ha!

First part of my ECCC haul is in! I worked out a deal with a friend so that she added these on to what she was buying from the Funko Shop. I got lucky with a Batman chase!!!! When my own order comes in then I will update my soda shelf!

Nice ... congrats on the Batman! =D>

Really excited for the fruit brute and yummy mummy and the MOTU announced today. It also looks like booberry should be yummy mummy colored for the chase. Where are you booberry!!

I liked that tbh...the motu merch for wondercon is just epic...adding a chase is fun but faker and disco skelly didn't need that extra touch lol

I think I’m gonna need all of the Wonder Con ones...especially the MOTU ones!

Postby **mongoose12** » Sat Mar 21, 2020 10:29 am

I remember seeing glams for wonder woman... hoping to get more DC Soda merch soon.

I'm really happy they went with Speed Racer for the anime association because it makes the most sense for this line. I was worried they were going to do something like MHA or Naruto which, while it sells, does not fit the vintage aesthetic that has been built up so far.

Everything they made is vintage so far outside Scott Pilgrim, which of course is required by Brian but also has vintage themes throughout it

Well said, very true!! I am not a big anime fan but I do appreciate the older originals so the Speed Racer is an excellent choice!! Original Dragonball would also work, maybe a Goku

I'm loving them all too!!!! According to the Funko App they are all shared with Funko Shop but Ramona Flowers just says WonderCon. Since this will be a virtual con I assume that she will go up with the rest

I saw that too and so happy to know they'll be shared with the Funko shop. Now I just hope I'm quick enough to get them. Best of luck to you as well

Maybe they'll do Astro Boy too

I'm very much fine with Dragon Ball, that's vintage and that would sell an absolute ton

Can't wait to add the Cereal Monsters. Those chases are going to be hard to pull.

Finally received my shipping notification from Funko Shop. Should be here Friday

Also, has anyone seen the ratios for any of these yet? I NEEEED those Fruit Brutes & Yummy Mummys!! The commons are perfect and the chases are freaking GORGEOUS!

I can’t put my finger on the inspiration for the Mummy chase, but it looks super familiar somehow...

Yeah the fruit brute and yummy mummy look so cool, can't wait to pick them up!

The color is kinda the color of Fruit Brute's overalls so maybe that is it. Now that I think about it, Fruit Brute is Frankenberry colors which means..... the Boo Berry Soda is Yummy Mummy colors!!!!!!!!

Oh snap that would be a great color combo for Booberry!

I wonder when Freddy will drop. I saw it in Becker’s soda video and can’t wait to get one. It’s the best designed one so far imo

0/4 on the ECCC chases but I really dig the standard versions of all of these, Scott's Astroboy shirt in particular, so totally cool with that.

Awesome!!! I agree, the Astro Boy Scott as the standard version is really cool. I also really like the Green Huckleberry!

So far no batman chase, but only have bought 2 cans. Sooner or later we will get one
