I like the odds! Especially since I'd much rather have a proto than a signed pop. I'll be buying... a few of these...

I’m trying to think of what the worst pops for me are and if $20 is worth the gamble. I’m gonna say for sure it is.

Lets do the math -

If 3,000 boxes were produced for this promo, we will only have:

60 boxes with rare Freddys,
10 with protos and
1 with a signed Pop!

In for one. Protos, autos, and Freddies are enough to get the gambling itch going. Hopefully whatever I commons I actually get are cool!

That’s a good way to break it down. The odds seem even more rare when you put it like that. The “so you’re saying I have a chance” mentality still kicked in for me to get one. lol

So 1/43(or so) boxes gets a super prize. We also don’t know what they consider rare Freddy right? I went to a local comic con and bought a Freddy Polka Dot man LE 5000 or something for $15, is that rare?

Are there only 3,000? :0

I feel like the proto and autograph odds should be reversed? I guess it depends who the autograph is from haha

I decided to try for 3 boxes. I figured 3 pops for $20 isn't terrible. I'm going in fully expecting to leave with commons, but it's all good. You gotta know the risks when doing mystery boxes.

Yeah - the rare Freddy is a bit vague. But I think most likely it will the spill-overs from the online box of fun at the very least.

This is what I'm thinking too. Box of Fun Freddys and con Freddys are both safe bets. I'm probbaly gonna try for this, but I'm keeping my expectations grounded.

I mean, I feel like there's so low a chance of getting anything it's not worth it.. but 3 pops for 20 and there are a bunch of FSE that I passed on that I wouldn't mind getting. With SDCC around the corner though I'm not sure if I should spend the money gambling

My mind went to Bella Porch, but any of those could work. Might be signed by Mike, I see him generously sending people cool signed Freddy Pops. I know at our FDO there were a few giveaways of a Peter Pan Freddy signed by Mike, it had green writing on it and it was such a cool signature.

Even if it’s more the odds are the same, one hit in every 43 or so boxes. I’m guessing they will sell as many as they can. Protos really haven’t been handed out en masse since Fright Night 2022 so there’s no shortage there and the online BoF have been at the Buckeye warehouse. I still think $20 for three Pops is a fun little game, but I don’t really expect to get anything I want to keep.

That's how I look at it. (If selected) I'm just paying $20 for 3 random pops. I don't really EXPECT to get any of the big hits. But hey... someone has to!
