Included with each SODA can is a 4.25” vinyl figure and a collectible disc both with a 1 in 6 chase variant!

I don't miss Sodas, their form factor wasn't for me, and the cans were a great gimmick, but trying to display or store them was a nightmare. And the way you'd find them opened and checked at retail stores was really annoying. I appreciate that you like them. Personally I miss Pint Size Heroes. Loved those, some people didn't. I was waiting for a Teen Titans Go line of pint size heroes my friend showed me on his Toys R Us upcoming product listings. But they never happened. :(

You mention the pokemon in sodas. That IS happening, just not from Funko. I just got back from a trip to Taiwan, and at a Don Quijote, I snapped a pic of these:

Yes, dorbz was one of the best lines, sadly here in Mexico you could only find a few of them at the time

No they shouldn't come back. While I enjoyed the chase aspect of them they never did great and right now funko needs to focus on the things that are working best.

I enjoyed them, but they were a Brian/Becker thing - I can't see them going on without that backing, and I wouldn't feel the same collecting them.

if I am honest....going forward without either of them here feels wrong. I wish one of them were still in charge.

I second this and I am totally fine with sodas not coming back. It was FUN while it lasted. ;-)

I wouldn't mind sodas again but limited edition low piece count ones only and if 3 liters come with it only ones that make sense

Big fan and I still pick them up on the secondary market. I know I'd buy them again if they were produced.

Towards the end I started to fall in love with AP sodas. Sooner rather than later I’m going to hunt them down. :smt117

The only plus side about Sodas is that they were great space savers! :-D

Unfortunately I think they didn't work as well in regular stores because people would open them trying to find the chase :( but I do like the Freddy ones that are included in the Boxes of Fun!

I'd recommend checking out 7BAP's weekly auctions. They usually have APs in the mix and it changes from week to week.
