But when I went to Wondercon 2 years ago it didn't stop people for lining up for the Funko booth in the very early hours of the morning which why i think they went back to lottery.
Yeah exactly. If people want something bad enough they will wait. I used to wait 5-6 hours for funko at Sdcc before the lottery (I dislike the lottery but I get it). Disney had absolutely crazy lines during the pandemic for their popcorn buckets. Last year at SDCC the lines were crazy long at every outside exhibit. Funko is also very hit or miss at Disney for some reason.
Yeah I’ve waited a few times at Disney for the releases and you are right the lines are insane. I’ve only bought one bucket so far, yeah, can you imagine I have self control, but spending $40+ dollars for a popcorn bucket, I’m not ready to go down that rabbit hole.
