I think they are kinda done with sub boxes? The only one left is Marvel right? The others were all cancelled.

They still do one offs, like Halloween Toy Story box... so maybe an anime one sold directly from Funko. But no commitment.

One thing I always wondered is why more stores don’t do the box thing like GameStop. I figure with the chance of chase they sold quite a few of them. The DC ones at Target didn’t do so well since they were always on clearance. Hot Topic did at least one Anime box, right?

I agree I think they are slowing done on the boxes and moving forward with the soda/game line. A Amine box would be hit if they ever decide to roll them out and I would love to see a Attack on Titan or Castlevania. :freddy3:

Is that considered a subscription though? Or just a collection box?

But there definitely have been one offs before. Hot Topic and Crunchyroll paired up for an “Ani-May” box a few years ago with a pop from “The Ancient Magus’ Wife,” but again not really a sub box. I think we are talking about two different things. A sub box is one that you literally subscribe to.

I would for sure sign up with something like an anime box. It would be dope having like attack on titan, my hero academia, and even some smaller ones like mob psycho 100.

This would probably have to go through Crunchyroll or something like that. I’m not sure that Funko owns enough anime licenses to keep it interesting. Though I would for sure join if this becomes a thing.

Postby **Sarcasticguy** » Fri May 20, 2022 3:11 pm

Funko got out of the sub box game themselves awhile ago. I think you can still get like marvel or dc through Amazon, but you'd probably need Crunchyroll or some other company to be the primary for the boxes.

Anime box would be such a huge hit! Make there be a chance at chase! I need more anime products lol

Buying multiple boxes when the distribution is not consistent... so I would hope no chases.

The chase is fun when you have a chance to catch or effort nets you a chance at the prize - not throwing money at poor infrastructure, or jumping through invisible hoops built to seemingly trip you up.

I have a mighty need for this but like someone else said above, I think Funko is done with sub boxes unfortunately. An anime one would be fire tho.

Yeah everyone would really go nuts for that.

Postby **Jmagic** » Fri Apr 07, 2023 5:04 pm

I remember subscribing to Loot crate for the Goku exclusives. Wish Funko would bring back something similar.

Postby **Jchillin92** » Sun Nov 19, 2023 9:48 pm

YESSSS!!! MORE ANIME!!!!!! I'd love to see some more hunter x hunter

Postby **TepPope** » Tue Dec 05, 2023 11:50 am

I would love something with Castlevania

Black light anime box ??

Postby **hailmary25** » Wed Apr 03, 2024 12:31 pm

I would subscribe to an anime box. Just so long as not every box is DBZ

This would be great!!!

I actually think this would break the internet! They’d sell out so fast!

Wouldn't that be the real problem? The moment it isn't DBZ or a shōnen anime - people will complain. They could have MHA, DBZ and HxH back to back to back, but the moment there is multiple shojo in a row you will see the trashcans and the Jurassic Park s*** showing up everywhere.

I agree, if they can sell those Marvel boxes monthly I certainly think people would pay $25-$30 a month for some fresh new Anime molds. Tbh some of the Marvel ones have been such duds so I don't know why they haven't looked into alternatives like Anime

It would be an easy sell for sure. I am curious to know if there is a licensing issue that is causing the delay. Anime is undoubtedly a highly popular and successful product for Funko.

Happy to see this thread has been resurrected, I would love an anime box. Anime is so popular, I think it would be a good seller, only downside is there are so many anime’s to choose from.

Postby **Turog_j** » Tue Jun 25, 2024 9:17 pm

insane the resurgence of it over the past few years into mainstream pop culture

I've been thinking about that. Do you think it would be better to have a mix of different anime items instead of just sticking to one specific anime? Or will that turn people off to getting it.
I think it might open people to checking new animes

First box - mobile suit gundam wing
Wing zero, death sythe, heavy arms

I think if they did a One Piece anime box it would sell very well. I guess depending on the anime and popularity they could either choose one anime or just do random ones. I think random ones would work better though.

Definitely One Piece is a sell out no question. Maybe just do the popular ones and then a mix down the road or in-between each popular boxes
