Clamshell funko pops

[jmosh42]

Do these clamshell Pops have anything keeping them in place? I've been considering buying some of these on the secondary market, and a lot of the pictures I see, the figures have fallen over or are facing the wrong direction inside the shell.

I've seen a lot, loose in the shell. That's crap because you can't open them without breaking the plastic. I'm pretty glad that mine are all mint and the pops stand well in their shell. Don't figured out how to display them yet, But I think I will hang them.

Mine were okay thankfully but a friend had theirs loose in its shell and it was very annoying.

If I had one, I'd definitely opened it. Can't stand a loose figure in a shell

Because they are doing so well at the conventions, I think we will continue to see them at more conventions. I think they will draw more attention once they do more than DC. I think people like them because they are different and like you stated, you can see the whole pop. The only downside is it is oddly shaped. You can't stack it, the sticker tends to peel off quickly because the casing is rounded and encourages the sticker to "pop" off.

Overall, they will continue to draw people to the booth and I'm curious to see which ones they come out with next?

I could definitely see them being some of the LE pops only as con exclusives

And they did for that exact reason

[SweetNSpicy]

yes they will. did they only do dc pops in clamshell?

Yeah only DC for now. Even the Freddy was Batman

I did not even think about that. I have to check mine.

To be honest, I think these are a lot better than the original clamshells. I had one that constantly got loose. It seems like the plastic meant to hold the figures in place are higher on these newer iterations (I bought the employee freddy batman because I didn't have to - I NEEDED to ).

[Jessedtaylor77]

They are difficult to.store. and figures tend to get loose inside clamshell.

[funkomaniac]

I don’t think the clamshell is a bad option, provided it’s used sparingly. It seems unnecessary to have it at more than a few events.

[Jalapenopete]

I think the clamshell is not a bad idea as long as they’re limited. I don’t think that we need them for more than a couple events.

I agree with u, I love them but keep to special events and keep them le

[brooklyn_geek]

Honestly...I like event and LE because it's always felt like it made the acquiring of the Pop at the actual event more special...you tend to remember those lines

[mrodr110]

Like the idea of it being con only. Wouldnt mind if they kept coming out with them.

Definitely con only. If they mass produced them it would take the uniqueness away

I hear you. Want that Freddy also but the price is bit too much for me right now

[FunkoholicsAnonymous]

I like the clamshells but they should only do the ones that they released back then

I agree!

I think we are all fighting with each other for that one! I am also watching for it.

Are clamshell pops exclusively DC characters only?
I'm curious if the hype will be different if it's Marvel, or anime?

Historically, yes. 2010 Batman, Metallic Batman, Glow Green Lantern and (don't quote me on the last one since I'm basing it off memory) Batgirl were the original clamshell pops. These newer iterations include some of the original DC molds that weren't in clamshells previously.

Oh definitely. If I was able to get an art today i probably would've tried to see if I can trade for one

[chester]

i had a couple I took one out of the clamshell to let my nephew play with.OOPs bad mistake. no way to put back in.Maybe if they redesigned it so you could remove it? the other one i fad feet fell out of the plastic holding him in place and could never get him standing again.

Interesting! Thanks for confirmation.
