It is entirely possible. I think the price point is an issue. The fact they were just a heavier mold I think wasn't worth the price point for many. They did say they were going to cut down the number of lines. I wouldn't be surprised if these weren't a casualty.


You could be right but I hope not. I really liked this line but that has happened to me before. I’m one of those that like Dorbz, maybe it’s me. I curse things.

I really like them also. They are more sturdy. I like the idea of them only making a few characters vs being mass-produced so a higher price point probably helps that. And makes them seem special. Was finally able to track down the Indy Chase which made me happy! Would love a Chewie, Maleficent, Bigfoot or a Disney Princess!

This!
It will be almost like the centerpiece for my collection. Feel like we haven't been presented with a new die cast in a while so I'm curious if they are abandoning it.

Imagine they release 10k, but there are 10 Chase variants. Each variant is a different “Freddy as” character. Common LE 8k, 2 LE 500, 2 LE 250, 2 LE 125, 2 LE 75, and 2 LE 50. Instant sell out like how it was back in the day.

Even though I’m sad that Funko won’t be at Wondercon, I’m happy for those attending C2E2 that they will have the fun of having Funko there, although I doubt there will be any die cast, that would be heavy to carry around

I think if they had put more effort into the chases these would have been a lot more popular. Different colorways etc, wouldve made more sense than just the plain chase. Freddy is always popular so Id buy him.
