Thanks to 2005 Board member Autobot City Comics 2008 we have some in-hand images of the new Gamestop Exclusive Funko Mystery Box Transformers vs G.I. Joe.
This special pack includes: 1 lunch box, 2 random Funko Pop figures, 1 key chain, 1 decal and 1 pin set. You could get any of the following Funko Pop characters: Optimus Prime (with Energon axe), Megatron (with Energon mace), Duke or Cobra Commander. We can share for you images of each of these new Funko Pop figures as well as all the extra content and the lunch box with retro Transformers and G.I Joe art on each side.
See all the images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Board!
Dark Jedi
Does anyone think Funko will make a zombie Prime like Dark Awakening?

I saw the box last summer while I was visiting a friend in Cologne, but at the time I was not really in the mood to get it. Plus I had already spent most of my toy money that month. Also, I only wanted to get the Cobra Commander Funko as well as the box itself – and that 50% chance was kinda annoying for sure. I had hoped I would find him and the box loose on ebay Germany, but I never found one, tough to be fair, I did not look very frequently.
But this week I saw two boxes in the Gamestop of my hometown, Duisburg, and they were reduced in price from 40€ to 30€, and after a lot of thinking (and a quick phone call to a fellow collector) I decided to get both of them. Boy, I am lucky guy! I opened both boxes immediately after I got back home and I had one of each pairs!
Though I only wanted the box and the Cobra Commander Funko, both TF Funkos have started to grow on me, so I decided I will keep them as well. Now I will part ways with one of the boxes, the Duke Funko as well as one set of pins as well as the Joe sticker.

I'm sure this will get much cheaper.

Correct it is a cash grab crapshoot. I can offer that most of those I saw were Megatron / Duke when I popped them open & i went through 5 of them.
Slingshot
Nope. Best bet is to try to trade with someone who has the opposite pair of your box.
Black Convoy
They are selling this by tons in my country. I just want the Cobra Commander. So… no way to identify the content of the box, right?
Butuman
Got 2 megs/duke combos. Would anyone be interested in trading their prime/cobra commander?
Smashs
Got the prime/cc combo. Looking to trade CC for a Megs if anyone is interested.

I usually don't get this kind of stuff, but I decided to grab one for the heck of it.

I have the Amazon metallic Optimus, so getting this one was both a bummer and kind of cool since I wanted Megatron but like having two exclusive versions of Optimus.
*Deathblade
This set was quality for 30 bucks. Only bad thing was I got the Duke megatron set, anyone want to trade optimus cobra commander for them? Pm me if so.
Predarican
Still looking to trade.
stad
That's about what I told him too, 10-12 bucks with the pins. Thanks!

Best is to check what's sold on ebay & make a good average. Remember tho – the whole thing was 30 – 10-15 I would imagine for the box / pops is likely the acceptable pricing with the other pieces 3-5.
stad
My friend is looking to sell off a lunchbox and pins, he just wanted the POPS and I already have my box. What would a fair price be for this?
G1 Cassette Hunter
I perhaps could be persueded to offer a transformers themed box covering all the stuff as I have a friend looking for a gi joe box set. Would this interest anyone?
Also, as a point of interest – anyone getting these shipped should check out Megatron's Mace as I had someone contact me about a broken mace as it free stands within the packaging.

yeah expensive blind bag stuff, especially without a "cheat code" like this, is such an f u to fans. i will never get how anyone thinks "if we trick them into buying a bunch of crap they DONT want to get the stuff they DO want they'll stay long time fans" lol
Gingerchris
Never been a fan of blind-packed stuff. I've skipped so many potentially decent TF products because of it. I mean it's okay to just buy one as it doesn't matter what you get, but two or more could be just a waste of money on duplicates. You'd think they'd sell more if you could see what you were getting. Even with kids surely eventually the parents just say 'No. You've got enough of the same one already'.
Not a G.I. Joe fan anyway, so half of this product would be wasted on me to begin with. A fully Transformers one would've been more tempting.
Venixion
Because it doesn't come with a lunch dammit!

One of my local GameStops had 2 sets on the shelf on Saturday. I bought both and ended up with one of each set.
