Soon hopefully meaning, sometime in this month of August. I kinda would prefer a release not on Wednesday, since there are so many people attempting the Wednesday morning release.

People are still gonna jump on this because it's attached to Disney/Pixar. Hopefully some people will hesitate those few minutes because they didn't see the short movie attached to Incredibles II

I have a feeling these will be one of the rare non-pops to go very quickly on the Funko shop. Be ready everyone!

You think so? It seems that anything not pop gets overlooked. Makes me think it isn't just for the collector and people are buying just to sell.... Ok too obvious?

Demand will be less than Ad Icons but the question is how much lower will demand be.

I agree with this. It won't fly like a typical Ad Icon pop but it should sell out quick. I could be wrong. Just my gut feeling.

Hoping for a drop tomorrow and that I'm fast enough to get one. Have a feeling this one will be popular based on all the chatter I've seen about it on social media.

I hope they make this many of the Funko Shop item more often. That would ease a lot of the stress for people. I have a feeling they made a lot to test out how people feel about this style of figure with the idea they could make similar style figures down the road for different characters.
