No more LE Counts for Sodas?

Included with each SODA can is a 4.25” vinyl figure and a collectible disc both with a 1 in 6 chase variant!

Maybe I missed something, but it doesn't seem like every new soda is no longer LE #d. So far the only ones I recall seeing that aren't numbered are recent Marvel ones (aside from Endgame Cap, but that's an EE exclusive).

The Wondercon Sodas are all numbered
66 Batman
Marty McFly
Front Man (Squid Games)
Ian Malcolm

Just as a few examples. I don't think we're seeing the last of LE #d sodas, just the expansion of certain lines to make them more widely available.

You didnt miss anything, if anything I think some people believed when Funko announced that some sodas at target and Walmart were coming without an LE that it would apply to all sodas, which is not the case. I believe the only non LE sodas will be ones sent to mass market retailers (target, Walmart, best buy) this is because they aren't going to have LE of 100k and so if they sell really well they can just reprint more, like hot topic does with their exclusives.

I hope they stop doing the no le sodas it takes the fun out of sodas and the le makes a soda special against anything else.

Sadly - they won’t be going away - there will be 2 main categories of sodas moving forward - the LE ones and the main-line ones. In fact, they just announced 3 new Marvel’s What If Sodas yesterday (all of them are main-line - so no LE counts).
