New production runs of old pops

Postby OldDirtyBot » Tue Oct 16, 2018 4:01 am

I don't really know exactly how it works since I've only been collecting a few months now but I take it older non-vaulted pops get produced randomly. Like the Robin chase I found at Target a couple of weeks ago (blew my mind) and I'm guessing with the Wonder Woman (haven't seen the chase) I'm seeing on shelves now. I also see online sellers listed restocks of newer sold out pops like the Deku Battle coming soon. Is there anyway tracking for what pops are getting reproduced when by Funko? I am guessing stores get order forms so there must be some information out there. Thx for any info.

Robin is definitely not vaulted and I don't believe Wonder Woman is either. A lot of sites will say a pop is vaulted without Funko ever saying it is. If you check The Funko Vault I think those are the only verified vaulted pops.

Deku Battle is a weird case as it was originally thought to be a limited run and usually those don't come back but I think the demand and growing popularity of the show forced some hands.

DC pops are still produced, even the older ones. Possibly because they are highly recognizable hero figures, and easy to get new collectors on board.

I recently saw Tenya was vaulted so I emailed EE regarding my pre-order. They said that the pop is indeed no longer available for purchase but they believe Funko will fulfill the previously placed orders. Crossing my finger here...

Did they send you a cancellation email? When did you place the order? My order was placed Augusts 2nd, 2018 and I just got the cancellation email today.

That is because the Flash chase is a 1 in 36. The majority of the newer chases are 1 in 6, and so, since they are easier to find their value is pretty low.

I wish I could find a Robin chase or any DC chase for that matter. I've been lucky and was able to get the batman and wonder woman chase for a good price.
