Interesting. I got that email as well. Wondering what happened.


Keep us updated. Hopefully it was an error and not an oversold item.

Fingers crossed we'll see on the 30th


I recommend you reach out before the 30th if you got an email cancellation. If you didn’t receive one, wish you luck .

Hope the cancellations are an error. I won a box but didn't receive a cancellation. Wonder why some orders triggered a cancellation email.


Then I assume you will get one if you didn’t receive an email cancellation. Like I said, hopefully they didn’t oversell and that’s what triggered the emails. Best of luck with the box.

I totally forgot about this and wish I didn’t because I always like to do raffles/gambles like this
Really cool and hope everyone gets something good

I’ll be bummed if Jaylen Brown is included in some boxes because that’s the perfect pop for bundles
Thread of most of my collection I’m selling. Time to say bye bye to SDCC Gus GiTD, SDCC Freddy’s ride, SDCC Whis and 73 other pops.

A friend bought one when we last went to Hollywood. She scored the HQ Harry Potter gargoyle exclusive. Not her thing, so she sold it to me for what it cost her. Best mystery purchase I've made (so far!)...hoping to see something at least that cool when my 3 boxes arrive!


One could hope we will be that lucky. If not, friends and family will be getting surprise POps for their birthday, lol

I can't wait to see what people get. I was really tempted but with all the money I am spending pre-SDCC and SDCC itself, I was like no, you don't need this. I'm sure I'll be kicking myself later. LOL

Mystery boxes are often failures rather than successes for buyers but always successes for the ones providing them. This one's not what I'd consider to be part of that. 3 for $20 is still a win despite not choosing what you want and the reward is high for its value. I hope everyone posts here after they receive it and let us know what they got!

Oh my goodness I've been on a roller coaster this week with these boxes! I also got a cancellation email on Wednesday, and my payment was refunded! I was so bummed! After seeing another post in here, and that they'd contacted Funko, I did the same, and got a similar answer that it was a glitch. So I was hopeful, but still worried about this!

And then this morning, lo and behold, they re-did the payment for the boxes, and it's showing up in my preorders on the Funko site. So I think I'm good? Cautiously optimistic?

So at this point, I'm going to count it as a win when I get a shipment notification, regardless of what I get in the boxes!

Glad this doesn't seem to have been a widespread issue among everyone in here. Hopefully just 3 more days until we start getting shipping notifications!

I think they said it ships out on the 30th, then however things normally take to get from Funko. I’m fairly certain it’s shipping out of the AZ warehouse.
