I’m disappointed on this drop. I think I’m not the only one.

yah wish they did something a little more unique with vader/emperor. They look like the ones from the ROTJ Pop Scene that they already did.

The standouts are definitely the Luke and Han. Still tempted to try and get them!

I definitely fall into that 75% category. I was thinking this would get me into the NFT game but these aren’t doing much for me. Maybe Series 2 will be the one.

Technically, more bang for your buck but.... the deluxes tend to go on sale/clearance

I like the Deluxe line, especially OOB. They pair well with Pops and Hikari. Hopefully the demand stays low and we're able to grab these at a decent price.

Same here. I like the fact that they are bigger in size. Just hope they survive shipping... :eek:

What a disappointing drop. Pass on these.

A royalty Freddy Star Wars alone would have easily helped get all the packs sold.

I can't imagine the deluxe pop surviving shipping.

Agree that it's not really the same, but for long time star wars collectors - some might look like just updated molds - which we already have.

Case in point for these scenes:

I was just thinking that. I definitely would’ve been onboard if the royalty was Freddy funko as a Star Wars character rather than leia

Well even as a massive Star Wars fan this one missed the mark for me. All characters we already have. All deluxes which I'm sure will not ship well for us in box collectors. And these rehashes aren't even that inspired. I like the Luke and that's about it. Not doing a Freddy royalty is not only a major bummer but a missed opportunity. You could have done a Jawa or Ewok or something.

I really liked the idea of Star Wars NFTs bc the community was all excited, I was just expecting different characters and not deluxe sized ones. I do appreciate an updated sculpt for most and the royalty is FIREEEEE. I was kinda sad about no Freddy as a SW character but I do have a gut feeling it had something to do with licensing. Wishing the best of luck to all who will try for packs :)

Looks like Disney NFT Pops will never contain a Freddy Funko pop. I mean, this is only the second one... but since both were Droppp Exclusives and both did not have a Freddy Royalty, it leads me to believe it's in the contract Funko made with Disney

They look cool but not for a NFT set. They also ruined the idea of a Grail with this set by changing it from 999 to 1980.

Swing and a miss for me as well. It has to be Disney making these strange decisions like deluxe and no Freddy which is the most disappointing part for me. I’ll probably grab one order’s worth for fun. I do really like that Luke and would probably try to buy him if he wasn’t the grail. I’m sure he won’t be cheap but would look absolutely fantastic next to the deluxe Wampa.

At this point, we can somewhat likely conclude that Disney IP Freddys are just meant for Fundays/Box of Funs.

This was my gutfeel from the get-go, and here we are. Yes, we are just two drops in, but there are telling signs as well that it will be like this (e.g. droppp marketplace exclusive only for Disney IPs). Really think this is due to licensing restrictions (which most of the folks from above are discussing) - from Disney (as they have other NFT sets as outside of Funko).

Curious why they decided on all deluxe Pops. Also disappointed that we’ve seen these characters so many times. It would’ve been nice to get one new debut, one rarely released character, and a Freddy amongst the lot.
Funko Goals:
-Attend Fundays
-Win a prototype
-Collect all Ewok-related Pops!

What does any entity gain by not having a Freddy. I feel like it can only hurt or do nothing to companies involved.
