Why are there 2 #248?
I just realized that the Mudtrooper (Pop Shop exclusive) and the Han Solo (Target exclusive) are both #248. Why is this?

Re: Why are there 2 #248?
Funko has a long history of numbering snafu's including numbers used twice and gaps in the numbering sequence. Has happened on both Pops and Dorbz numerous times.

Yeah, something along these lines. The universe we know of, Han Solo joined the Rebels and became a hero, but in the other universe he joined the Empire and is now a lowly Mudtrooper.

There is more than one numbering error in the SW collection. There are 2 90s and 2 91s. I'm not sure why they continue to make these mistakes, but they do.

Very true. However for the OCD it probably drives them crazy.

Very true. However for the OCD it probably drives them crazy.
It used to drive me crazy when I was lining them up in order, but I've liberated myself from that by organizing them by movie and chronologically. It still gets me when I see the boxes or look at my google doc, but now it's more of a, "oh Funko, you're so silly," kinda reaction.

the numbering mishap happens more often than it should, but it isn't the end of the world when they do. it's human error and an oversight happened.

Exactly. Some ppl get all hot and bothered by it... usually OCD ppl. I'm not making fun of their condition, but nothing in mass production is ever 100% perfect and flawless every single time
