Oh man...I definitely didn't want this box. "Droids?" I said, aghast. "Psh, Funko has already Popified the most memorable droids in the franchise. What could they POSSIBLY do to make an entire themed box of droids fun?"
But jeez...THIS looks fun.

WOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!! I am in on a yearly sub anyway, but even if I wasn't that would be a must-have! Funko continues to deliver in a huge way on this sub!

Those were pretty much my feelings about this box as well! Kudos to Funko for surprising me again

Re: Smugglers Bounty - Droids!
Is it wrong of me to hope there is a chase version with the eyes dimmed? Because that would be awesome

Is there a canon-story behind this or is he supposed to be the unfinished version from ep 1?

Re: Smugglers Bounty - Droids!
I'm surprised by the choice for the droid. One that I never thought of. There are very few that would cause me to skip this box, but that is one of them. At least it means more money for SDCC.

Re: Smugglers Bounty - Droids!
Hmmm...I was patiently waiting for the reveal so I could cancel. Now I'm leaning toward getting it. Like others said I hope we get a shirt. I already have 3PO, R2 and BB-8 socks so while I'm a fan of getting socks, hopefully not this box.

Sure is interesting. Not sure if I love it, but I do agree it's unique and I appreciate the effort of something new.
Still fingers crossed for a shirt!

Really like that pop! Hoping we get two pops in this one, perhaps even a pop chase. Please no, wearables!

Re: Smugglers Bounty - Droids!
I've totally changed my mind and I actually LOVE the spoiled item. It took me a bit to think about it, but I am sold. I just love that it's creative and a bit outside the box, pun not intended!

It might not be for everyone, but I LOVE this! This may be my second favorite Pop! of this sub box after the Taun Taun! Big kudos to Funko on this one!

Canceled my sub because I'm not a huge droid fan, but that is fantastic! It's definitely a clever sculpt and really glad they went with that. Well done Funko!

Ditto! All pops and shirts would make me very happy.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Yes, shirts and pops is all I want. hahah Maybe also less dark shirts. I have too many dark ones.

Re: Smugglers Bounty - Droids!
I saw on another thread someone asking about a white Death Star droid that they thought they saw on the back of the SDCC Bodhi Rook box. Some of the speculation was that it might be a second Pop for this box. Figured I'd bring that discussion here!

I've never noticed or paid attention, but do SB exclusives ever appear on the backs of non SB Pop boxes?

Yes they do. Orson Krennic (a Rogue One common) shows the two Rogue One SB figures on the back

Hmm, so there is a precedent. I'm passing on this box anyway, but I hope for the sake of subscribers that it's something more interesting than that.

Re: Smugglers Bounty - Droids!
Yes, although it doesn't appear that it says "Smuggler's Bounty exclusive" underneath the picture. Not that their numbering or box backs need to be that descriptive (or accurate)

It's almost impossible to not get spoiled when they release it so far in advance, but I will say I'm happy they seem to have (at least for this box) made it so that you could be fully surprised, unlike the last few boxes where you would see ads for what the main figures were all over Facebook.
