Star Wars Mystery Minis?

[AshleyWilbanks]

This question may have been answered before, but is there a reason we didn't get mystery minis for the Force Awakens? It seems like these would have been a no-brainer.

Licensing ability and/or costs would be my guess. I think the only way Funko can use the SW license is with bobbles so if they did a minis set it would be the bobble variety. And that's if they were granted the license to do so and the costs of said license made sense from a production/profitability standpoint. Throw in all the other licenses and sets they are releasing currently and they may already have their hands full. These are all best guesses from a fan, maybe an insider/employee can shed better light on your question.

thanks for the reply oblong. I wouldn't care if they were of the bobblehead variety. I have some of the Age of Ultron mystery minis that are bobbleheads as well, and that doesn't bother me at all.

It's got to be a licensing issue rather than a bobble head issue. If Funko could make them, they would in a heartbeat as they'd make a fortune off them.

Would be awesome if they could do a Star wars mystery mini line, I could imagine at least a box for each episode 1-7 and maybe sets for the tv shows as well. I think the line would transition well. Which style would you guys prefer it in? I think they would look good in the Avengers/civil war style.
