I don't know? But it would be cool to see. My Trader Grim got her a day or so ago and it's a fantastic piece!

I hope not. I love the Spastik line. Such fun characters that are all unique. I’ve also been loving the fact that the past few have been all Funko shop. It’s so much easier than having to worry about not being able to get them at a con.

I don't think so but the production might slow down a smidge because they are all personal intellectual properties so they dont have a huge following outside of funatics really.

But i don't think they will ever fully do away with em.

Big doubt. It's one of their original lines. A few leaked that look Halloween themed that are coming up.

Doubt Funko is going away with this line. They rely on their licenses as their main source of revenue but they knew creating an OG line like this one will take time.

All great characters! On the plus side, no sell out means easy to pick up if I can’t hit the drop.

It does make you wonder the run counts on these. Are they all the same or no? Who knows?

I doubt it has a high count on them. It has a unique fan-based. Flippers probably don't buy them because it doesn't sell well.

Probably all true statements. Once the room the LE number off of them they have been easier to get online.

I would agree with that statement. I think they were wise to take the number off of the sticker. I think it dissuades some people who aren't really interested from going for them.
