Sith Trooper

[nightbodega]

Yeah I'm not holding my breath. Haha

Maybe in 20 years, we can own it.

With these prices? That soon?

Yes, that soon

Yes, that soon

Lol, life goals are a good thing.

Still got some time to organize my life goals.

[Kullekter89]

A lot of you count the Freddy funko ones

As long as it's trooper we should count it

Oof. Thats gonna be a lot

Oh yeah alot

[kappait]

Haha. Well we did save a ton this year with no con's! Could use that loot!

[Nooklin]

Now would be a great time to finally release the Sith Trooper since SDCC was only the Debut. With stores and Funko hurting for cash, there are a few pops that we’ve been waiting for and this is one of them. It would be instant profit for them, especially if they were identical except for the sticker.

[digithor]

Ah just throw the sticker on it also!

[rexflexall]

Still need Sith Trooper at retail!

[AleX-Men]

Yeah, it would seem odd to debut a pop and not make a full release.

[anime23]

I wonder if this is just going to get vaulted like that first to market 13th Doctor from Dr Who that was at SDCC a couple years ago. I was lucky enough to get one though I wish I had one more to take out of the box. Most of my stormtroopers are out of the box. I definitely won't complain though

I hope they re-release Darth Maul. I can go for that one too.

same here! hoping it gets released and more produced! would remind me of the Metallic Children of the Forest pop release in that prices skyrocketed but hoping the release will get them in the hands of more collectors!

Just take it out of the box and put it up on the shelf.

[zaghawk]

I think its safe to assume Common Sith Trooper isn't coming...if there was a time...it would've been ROS DVD Release or May 4th.

[rexflexall]

Yah I guess a delay forever might be for that Sith Trooper!

[zaghawk]

Unless there happens to be a new movie or Mando episode where Sith Trooper (similar to Death Trooper in Mandalorian) makes an entry...then that would be my only thought of it getting its actual full run release. What a bummer.

This is actually a great idea. If ever there was a time for a cash grab that everyone would be happy with, they should release it even as a shop exclusive re-release. Would sell like gangbusters without ever having to create something new.

Without e3 and celebration, I know I'm gonna save a ton right there.

Celebration also just saved me at least 400 dollars.

[rexflexall]

Someday I will attend a SW Celebration!!

With merchandise and food, prolly saved me around a grand.

Well I still have hope that it will, I know a ton of people have and are still waiting.

I think even think of that. I was just thinking of collectibles. So that would bring me closer to $900,

When you take into the account of all the expenses involved for a convention trip, Airfare, Taxi/uber, All the expensive eating out, Tickets to events, Tickets to the con then you finally tab in any $ spent on collectibles. I'd say total money saved on cancelled conventions easily in the thousands if you're there for more than a few days. I think I estimated that an SDCC trip alone put me somewhere like 5k in the hole, yeah sure you could make out if you're someone who's business is selling every collectible you get, but if you're keeping it all (or at least a large majority) then...you're just in the hole.

Up until a few days later and find something else to spend it on. I just did.

Agree. I've stayed in a room by myself, all days and I have paid up to $1,500 for my self.

My best funatic memories, aren't at Fundays. Honestly Funkoween and HQ Grand Opening to me were the best funatic events.

Oh man. I missed out on Funoween. I hope it was a blast. Which I'm sure it was.

Funkoween would have been nice to attend.

[rexflexall]

I wish I coulda gone to Funkoween!

[zaghawk]

Funkoween was great because I feel like a lot of folks who went, truly went to just hang out with others. There wasn't the promise of tons of stuff you'd come to expect from Fundays. I believe the low number of allowed attendees was also a big contributor as truly tickets were limited to funatics, which just ensured a much higher percentage of funatics in the building (IMHO it easily felt like 80% of the crowd were all funatics from the board) vs Fundays I could say is more (1/4 Business Partners, 1/4 Resellers, 1/4 Funatics on the board, 1/4 Funko Collectors who are funatics, but not on the board). I think other great memories for me just comes from local funatic events, if you don't have someone locally throwing smaller get togethers. Well why be a follower when you can be a leader. When the world returns to the new normal, find an event space that's free and invite 20-40 funatics locally and just get to know each other.

Great analysis here, Gavin. Hopefully we get to have more of the more “intimate” events moving forward once everything returns back to the new normal.

hadn't noticed im glad I got one

Agreed. I wasn't able to go to Funkoween but I've been to a few Fundays. I'd love if there was a chance to go to something like what you described again
