Postby **randig** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 11:52 am

I got a SB box!

The Chewy and C-3PO Mug. Pretty Sweet. Thank you Funko.

Nice to come home and see a random box on my doorstep!

Yeah I got that email too, but that's for the regular sub, not the "gift" box. I don't think anyone (including me) that has a gift box on the way got a shipping notice, it just shows up in your order history as "Post Holiday Gift" and it doesn't say what it is that you're getting.

I got an email with that subject line and it's definitely for the gift box. It has the same tracking number as is listed under the Holiday Gift in my SB account. Now I don't necessarily think it's a SB box, it's just coming from that account.

I'm a little confused. I got the email saying I'd be getting a gift box, but I am a subscriber to all 3 boxes. I also checked all 3 accounts and none of them have a gift box in my orders. Not sure what's going on.

Same here but I'm sure they have a lot of boxes to get out so I'm going to stay patient, especially since it is a free gift.

**Update**
Just received 2 tracking emails. One for my LoC box shipping out of NY (as normal) and a second shipping out of TX. Both boxes shipped on different dates.
So my Legacy box and my Funko Gift box will both be arriving soon.

Its for the gift, "Get ready for a great surprise, because your Post Holiday Gift box from subscription #11803 is shipping soon! Your tracking information is below." it should be here on the 5th.

of all the people iv seen receive theirs its been SB boxes so far, maybe it'll be done in waves? SB boxes get sent, then MCC then LoC or LoC then MCC.

Tho sending out the Empire strikes Back box early would be a gift

Aaah, I see now, thank you both for the clarification! I didn't get en email for the gift box, I didn't think anyone did. Interesting. I did get two emails for my regular SB sub like I mentioned before but nothing on the gift. It has shipped though because the tracking info is in my acct.

Maybe so. That'll be strange if I get an SB box because SB is the only sub I've been in since the beginning. Based on their original email I assumed they would be sending people boxes that they didn't have subs to, to try and entice them to join.

thanks Funko! just got the Jabba's Palace SB box. very cool of them to do this. Hope everybody gets something they appreciate.

I totally agree. I would be shocked if I receive a SB Gift Box since that is my Subscription.

Nice that they sent this for international customers too, assuming they follow through with it. Haven't got any tracking info yet, but got the Funko gift e-mail. I've ordered about 6 MCC boxes and 2 SB boxes nothing in either account yet.

I am subbed for all three and the January box for Smuggler's is still processing. I doubt they would ship the mid-January box before the end date. This is why I am assuming I am getting a Smuggler's box. Today, I got the notice for my January DC box.

I just looked at the tracking information on mine, it is on my Smugglers Bounty account and says it should be here on Thursday....we will see what comes.

Postby **angeladominguez** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 7:49 pm

I got a SB box!
It was the Jabba's palace box, so now me and hubbie have matching Jabba pop mugs!!

Postby **jkcohen626** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 8:29 pm

It sounds like most people are not getting shipping emails about this, but I just got one, strange. I know that for a while MCC emails went to my spam, so it might be there for some other people but it sounds like nobody or almost nobody has gotten shipping emails.

It would be super weird if they ended up sending me two SB boxes considering I basically only sub to SB, plus getting MCC twice. I'm assuming it's just coming from my SB account and it'll end up being something else. Otherwise, someone got their wires crossed!

Or conversely, I have a few ~suspended accounts at SB and they think it represents multiple people and they're trying to seduce them back? We shall see! But free swag is free swag

Postby **RedRoo** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 10:00 pm

I'm still trying to find someone outside of the us who's got one XD no luck as of yet

Postby **DefNotBlitz** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 10:14 pm

Got an email saying mine has shipped. I'm expecting either a Resistance or Jabba's Palace. I'm excited for either.

Postby **kitana888** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 3:51 am

I didn't get an email, but I checked my MCC account and there's my tracking number. I checked my junk, trash, promotions foloders, nothing.....weird.

Postby **ginas_place** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 6:36 am

Finally got the tracking email from MCC with a delivery date for 1/7/17. The second gift email... nothing yet

Postby **bwridge** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 10:10 am

No email for me. Have been a CC subscriber since the first box but have turned off the subscription for the occasional box that doesn't interest me. Bummer.

Postby **McScruffy** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 4:41 pm

So my gift just arrived and it was an MCC Antman box! I've only ever subbed to Smugglers so I was truly hoping for a Marvel box! I love the Tee-shirt and the Pop with the smallest bobblehead is great! So glad Funko did this!

Postby **jinxykat** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 5:31 pm

I came home to the Force Awakens box, nice surprise

My tracking number now says my gift box is due tomorrow to arrive at my place. Wow, I can't wait! I am hoping for a DC box.

Postby **CaptainMayhem88** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 6:35 pm

I got the email that I was receiving a free box as a gift from them last Thursday, but I haven't seen any activity yet. Nothing is showing up in my recent orders section on my MCC profile. I'm really hoping I get a SB or older MCC box as I really don't care for anything DC.

Postby **jkcohen626** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 8:30 pm

Did anybody else revive a box the tracking said weighed 2.675 pounds? That's what my box is listed as and I'm just curious.

I didn't see mine in any one of my 3 sub hubs on the orders. I never got a tracking update or number, but just got the past day or so...got a Star Wars box.

Postby **treswright** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 11:31 pm

A buddy of mine got his gift box today and it was Ant Man, so they're not all SB boxes!

Postby **NCDS** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 11:37 pm

I got mine today and it was smugglers bounty, no worries though because they are awesome items that I can give to a lot of Star Wars fans I know.

Spoiler: show

Postby **jaybros82** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 11:48 pm

I received the email but check my marvel and SW and nothing shipped

AWESOME so looks like it is random just a bit skewed to SB at the moment. Ant man was really a great box

Postby **Battastic** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 5:57 am

Still waiting on my gift box but my buddy received his yesterday. He only subs to the SW box....his gift box was Ant Man

Postby **rgr61375** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 10:50 am

Received mine today, it was a Marvel box. I'm a Founder level subscriber at Collector Corps., so I already have it. Very nice gesture none the less. I'd rather they ship out the excess inventory to subscribers than unload with a liquidator or something.

Postby **edmomo** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 11:01 am

I got mine yesterday and it was a TFA w/ flocked chewie and c-3po mug as well. I subscribed to all 3 so a repeat for me but still thrilled they would send a gift. can't complain about free. well you could, but you know...

Postby **GameOfWhooves** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 11:29 am

I got a Jabba Box, which I already had.

Postby **treswright** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 12:01 pm

Mine is due to arrive today.

seriously... must be nice for those that have nothing better to do with their time other than complain. wish I had that much free time.

Postby **hailmary25** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 12:21 pm

As I did not get the message cause I do not keep a current subscription I see both sides. They said you would get something from the other boxes so I would be peeved a little if I got a box I already had from my current sub. However, free is free and FUNKO didnt have to do this at all. They could have just marked them all half off or something and covered their expenses or made some profit.

Postby **ScarletFunko** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 12:49 pm

Still nothing in either of my accounts.

Postby **Thrillofthehunt** » Thu Jan 05, 2017 1:05 pm

I rec'd the Jabba Smuggler Bounty. Thanks Funko! the fan appreciation feels good! Very fun box too, my new coffee mug is getting put to good use
