    Their entire sales tactic has been manufacturing different stickers to make the same pops appear different and create value that isn't really there. Con/shared, store exclusive/special edition. They took it to the next level with this move but it's always been their game. Same dam pops just different boxes and stickers. Their statement for this is basically "we didn't know, hope you guys still had fun at the convention tho"

  • @Site19Series
    @Site19Series11 ай бұрын

    In my opinion. Funko may be doing this to discourage people who just buy the boxes at the convention just to sell the items inside of them for 10x the price. Also I think it is fair for the people who couldn’t go to the convention to have a shot at getting a rare figure. On the other hand though it is kind of a dick move for Funko since people who go to the convention would expect that they would get exclusive figures. Idk though, this is confusing. But I have a feeling Funko fucked up.

Now regular collectors can go to the con. Come on 3k for a $15 pop on a flip. Good for them selling it a 3k but as I said, flipper. I want to go next year but all those people like sardines.

    I’m sure in Funko’s mind they are going to come out and say something like, we did this to make it fair to those who can’t travel long distances, or have the money to travel long distances to SDCC and Fundays. They may even think by doing this they can start getting people who are getting tickets to this event only to resell to stop buying tickets. The problem is that you know when you are able to get tickets and go to that event that you’re going to get special pops that no one else is going to ever get. This year has now destroyed that. I would not be surprised if they continue this trend to try to make it “fair”. Of course it could mean that the craziness of people fighting to get tickets to that event might go down if this trend continues next year. Funko just isn’t the same company they used to be and I think we need to realize they never will be again.

People were jumping into whatever line had boxes left at the end. Also, in my box, I got one of the metallic Megatrons. It makes me wonder if pops got stickered at the event due to them running low and throwing boxes together, then the at home boxes that got purchased and shipped before the Fundays event had the other stickered pops.

    They have said. They have a blog that states the number reflects the TOTAL AMOUNT MADE and the sticker variation reflects the point of purchase. IE a shared sticker or a con sticker for the bag/pop combos, with and le of 1,000 means 1,000 TOTAL were made and the shared/con sticker just reflects where it was sold, but there’s only a total of 1,000 combined.

It all comes down to reselling, people feel hard done by, but as i said con stickered cost more so value of the event pop will also. There are still so many we've not seen in the home box, the full flow anakin, the 2 different versions of vison, people at the event still got some cool stuff and had fun. Piece counts have always been funny, take sodas, there are international versions and US versions. May be piece counts for the event and at home boxes? Funko doesn't clarify these things

    As much as Funko F'd up, IMO, this is the best collective group of Freddy's released. In addition to the F ups you mentioned, I noticed that more Diamond Collection Freddy Waldos were produced than regular Freddy Waldos (5000 vs 850) and more Flocked Freddy Shaggy's were produced than regular Freddy Shaggy's (4500 vs 4000). It would make sense to make the special edition more limited than the regular version.

    Also someone selling a version with no sticker technically now has a version worth at least 25percent less then the at home box sticker as it's automatically classified as a damaged pop. Basically it's up to the buyer to do their research price wise

    What a shame. The energy from Fundays seemed like a refreshing high, and this news feels like a slap in the face. Unfortunately, I can't say I'm too surprised since this is quite similar to what Funko does with International Edition sodas. It feels deceiving, which is basically the opposite of 'fun'. You would think after 25 years Funko would have learned what it means to stay on-brand and cultivate trust with its customers. Ouch.

    I think Funko tried to replicate the con/shared sticker thing with Fundays Freddy's, hoping that the Funko community would be too sticker obsessed to care, or that we'd accept it. The issue is too blatant for it to have been a mistake. Ultimately, I think the collecting community got too sticker obsessed, so Funko got lazy and tried to feed off that.

    I get that this practice is new to the Freddy Funko line. However, it’s nothing new as a whole. I know you say it’s different, but it is the same thing as a Con sticker vs Shared sticker. Same Pop, same box, just different stickers. It’s the same thing. Sure there’s no number on then Con Stickers, but there’s still a lower run then compared to the Shared version. Seems like the same thing to me, but this year they snuck it in on the Freddy Boxes. I get that it sucks for some people that were able to go and had hopes of getting something more limited, but it’s not really any different that normal. Some people value those stickers at a higher value.

Sure, it’s cool to get a con sticker or something that claims to be exclusive, but not so cool if you have to spend 2-3 times the amount of “shared” sticker. I’ve sold and traded my con stickers, if I can get a good trade up out of it. At this point it’s more surprising when Funko does something Good.

Just maybe it wasn't intentional and just poor management. Still sucks for some, but mistakes happen and we all get screwed over from time to time. I tried to order the Wolf or Bear boxes and my Order would never submit. I do think Funko need to step up their QC and Customer Relations and do better, but at this point, it seems awfully common.

    I imagine that those in attendance at Fundays are beyond furious. Imagine the amount of money you spend to attend especially those that required plane tickets, hotels, Airbnb’s. Then to find out you could have stayed home saving thousands to get the same as people at home got. Funko needs to address this like yesterday. They can’t ignore this a second longer. Funko will be the next thing on the boycott list, Funko should take a look around and see what happens to companies that blatantly mock their customers and ignore their cry’s. I imagine Funko would suffer severely if collectors boycotted them even for a short period of time.
