I like the diecast packaging a lot, but the pop itself is a scam,

I love the die cast box, reminds me of an apple product without having to buy a new phone.

I am ok with the item costing what it costs, because it is metal after all. The hard plastic shell is cool is presentation sense.

Same. Would love to get a chase of this one but I’m not going to track one down and pay a ton of money for it!

Not yet. Seems like it took a couple weeks between when they announced the diecast Boba and the actual sale. Who knows? Maybe it will go up on Funko shop with he SW Celebration exclusives.

Ah ok thanks! Was looking around but didn’t find any info. Would’ve been a cool piece as a con exclusive.

I wouldn't say it's a scam, the common itself is cool. Chase is not as bad as chrome or art series

It would only be a scam if they mislead people from what it is, they didn't do that. Although the price is high, I can justify it while holding one of these in my hand...I mean I can use the pop as a weapon if I wanted to. jk lol

I feel like the fact that Boba did get some restocking and the DC ones are still in stock is a good sign that there will be a few shots. Sure the DC ones do not have chases but there might not be millions of voices crying out.

I feel the same way, plus Boba disappeared from the funko shop a few times, however I really though Batman would be the same way.
