Nope. Feed me more Freddy's and less other basic bricks. Prefer collecting the Freddy's over most the lines they have coming out.

Agreed, I think this has also gotten a lot of newer fans into collecting Freddys by making them more accessible. I still think they should make limited ones to keep collecting fun and have grail Freddys out there.

I just wish in-person event Freddys can only be exclusive to the events and not show up at the Buckeye Sale.

I noticed that there were more Star Wars Freddy released in the last two Fundays than all the previous Fundays (typically one Star Wars Freddy was released each year at Fundays). Black Light Fundays had a Han Solo, Mando, and Darth Maul Freddy. This year Camp Fundays had Anakin, Chewbecca, Stormtrooper, and Luke with Grogu. I'm guessing there are more Freddys now because Funko has been releasing an online box of fun with higher counts.

I like the new ones and I mainly collect Star Wars Freddy, but it's way too much. =)

I agree, I love Star Wars themed Freddie’s but it’s impossible to keep up now! Especially with the LE pieces

With Ahsoka series, there’s been a lot of followings for Star Wars. However, I can’t think of any more characters they can make Freddy into tho. Mace Windu? Darth Revan?

It would make sense, and they are typically some of the most popular ones so no reason not to make more! There are still plenty of iconic characters left for them to make!

I understand why they are doing what they are doing. I wish they wouldn't release so many because then it makes the Freddy collections less special. Part of the fun when looking at my freddy collection is they are something special in terms of they represent a memory or an event I have. I wish they would keep release low, but I also don't mind it.

Wanting a Freddy collection was my top priority when I first learned about him and Fundays, but now what was once such a special epic thing is starting to feel so mundane, which is sad and kind of how I’ve been feeling about collecting Funko in general. I dunno, maybe it’s the announcement of yet another NFT drop meaning a couple thousand new Freddys are destined for this world, but it just got me thinking , and I know how much you all hate me thinking so I’ll end it there.

I love Freddys but I was just discussing this with a buddy. To be honest I love getting my hands on the Freddys but loved it when they were harder to get. Almost felt like a reward to get one. You used to have to attend Fundays or get lucky at a convention versus being able to buy one every other week.



Yeah I agree with this, freddy should be the reward not a normal pop you get. Like social media freddy still is.
definitely, I do love a Freddy pop but love earning them by getting them at fundays, or through some raffle or convention. They tend to mean more for me. Thats me though, cant speak for everyone.

Spastik Plastik was kind of a niche line!

Yeah I don't think this line sold well, so they moved on. They are beholden to their stock holders now.

I think the Flippers are over doing it trying to make a quick dollar. I see all these pictures of FS/NFT with hundreds of Freddy's and redeemable Pops. They end up under cutting each other and is some cases, good deals are to be had.
