Postby **rdgmjv11** » Tue Nov 15, 2016 7:59 am

Yes please.

Hopefully soon! Probably after the movie comes out and I'm sure after the movie there will be a whole second wave of pops

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Tue Nov 15, 2016 2:23 pm

I hope this still releases! It was my favorite Rogue One pop announced besides Bistan. (And given the way Bistan screwed me over it'd be nice if this didn't)

I'm patiently waiting for this guy. The Death Trooper is probably my favorite Star Wars character so I'm trying to buy every single one they make in all forms lol

I mean they rushed out the first wave and those are all sold out at my local wal marts. Must be making a wave 2 when the movie hits!

It totally makes sense that there will be a wave 2, but wave 1 was so big, my brain and wallet hurt thinking about it! Note to self- build more shelves.

Totally forgot absolutely about this one! Hope to see it get released, maybe when the movie comes out

Postby **Krazydave2000** » Thu Nov 17, 2016 11:07 pm

Still waiting

Postby **Mikey8815** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 3:26 pm

Star wars always releases things in bulk. I'm assuming this will be released right before the movie with the battlefront DLC. Possibly a street date (which I prefer).

Can't wait to see this one on shelves, but in the mean time everyone's still waiting for the movie tickets to go on sale lol

Right? I want to buy these so badly! I heard mid November, but here were are on the 19th and no news! I know it's not the same as TFA, but those went on sale over 2 months before.

ETA I just heard November 28th is the current rumored date. We shall see!

Yeah it's strange how they're handling the ticket sales different than last year, but hopefully soon :cheers:

Some people are saying they got an email from wal mart saying it is for sale on their website, but apparently it is still not available. Must be coming soon.

Postby **Pmisley** » Mon Nov 28, 2016 3:49 pm

Sooooo Funko posted this on Facebook. Anyone have any NEW information on when this thing is actually supposed to come out!?

Postby **valorandvellum** » Tue Nov 29, 2016 1:51 pm

If they're giving one away, that means it has to be soon... right?

I hope so! I feel like we've been waiting a really long time for this guy. Love the pic though - he's so shiny and pretty.

I need this and the Wobbler in my life :love10:

Postby **The Head** » Tue Nov 29, 2016 4:21 pm

Good news on the giveaway. I've good luck online with walmart exclusives lately so hoping this guy is the same. The smugglers bounty trooper just didn't scratch that itch enough.

Yeah, Walmart online has been good, but I've been noticing that about a third of what I order from them comes with a badly beaten up box. Hopefully it's ok for everyone else and it's just my Walmart that likes to literally sit on shipments. lol

I love this one and I think this will have to be another I display out of box....or get 2!

Postby **CaseyJones14** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 11:34 am

I need this in my life :eek:

Postby **Zae05** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 11:52 am

I was on Denver for Thanksgiving and my friend lives real close to a Walmart which typically has nothing. For the heck of it I thought I'd see if I could score the DC "mystery" box. After a lot of confusion on the part of one employee, and the help of two others, they found it they had them all in the back and had never even put them out on the floor! So I got one. :bounce:

They also told me they had the Deathtrooper in stock but couldn't actually find him.The weird thing is that the second guy who had their device to look things up? He said they have to have a bar code to look something up, they can't punch in a upc. But why would the average non-collector ever walk in with the barcode?? Seems like a catch 22.

Pffff! I did that and a lot of good it did. I went into mine with a barcode for the mystery box. It must have taken the poor woman 10 minutes to figure out how to set her machine to scan a barcode. Then she happily reported that there were 16 in stock. Did she know where? Of course not. I looked through the store 3 times and never found them. Asked another person if they might be in back and got a definite "maybe". WM = frustration!

Postby **DefNotBlitz** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 4:36 pm

It looks freaking fantastic. Time to find the mythical Wal-Mart that will have these in stock.

Postby **Pmisley** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 4:37 pm

I like it! Not quite as chrome black as I had originally hoped for, but it still looks damn good.

Aww man, they brought out a whole big box from the box, I could have grabbed you one! Though I was also watching my 6-year-old nephew at the time, and love him, but that kid is a maniac. lol

Postby **Mikey8815** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 6:57 pm

I saw a picture listing upcoming wal mart releases and it said the deathtrooper is coming tomorrow, December 1st. Hopefully it is a street date so it will be in every store for sure. Anybody know around what time in the day they put out street dated items at 24 hour stores?
