It's shared with Gamestop as an exclusive, if you can't get one during the con he shouldn't be hard to order from the website later. Gamestop usually stocks funko exclusives for awhile

Thank you

I think Funko Pops are basically the "collectible" of the fake nerd – that person who thinks the characters on Big Bang Theory are an accurate representation of a nerd and they want to be like that.
I have never seen any serious action figure collector touch these with a 10-foot pole.

I have every single Masterpiece Transformer ever released, as well as dozens of 3P MP figures, and have been collecting figures since the mid 90s across various lines. I also happen to think some Funko Pops are cheap, cute representations of characters who may not otherwise get merch.

I’m sorry I’m not a serious action figure collector, but if you could teach me how to gatekeep plastic dolls that may help me get there!

weird, it seems to be based directly on Haslab unicron. look at the fake layered panels on the sides of the legs, the half-blue circles covered by the silver panels on the chest, the way the hinges are stationed on the wing arcs, the ab shape, the shoulder detail and the blue strips on the forearms, its 100% styled after the haslab unicron. wacky.

Well that would make sense since Funko have the rights to make Transformer Pops based off the toys and not the animation.

Well, they stuck Devastator in that ridiculous NFT limited draw bullshit thing, so even if they issued all the others most people would miss out.

I'm still pissed I've got 10 different characters (I don't see the point in getting variants or huge OP, etc.) and can get a huge Unicron, but can never have a complete cast list of the ones they do issue.

Your correct there and that is annoying. However I thought that Devy was only regular sized? They could always re-release as a jumbo? Not sure about the other ones we're going to miss out on.

Are you a serious action figure collector, or are you a serious Transformers collector? I suppose there would be a difference.

Is it just me or has anyone else never cared for these, like at all. No me, funko pops have always seemed like off brand knockoffs and I that I would actually like a good realistic figure of said character.

And yet when someone releases a good realistic figure, people find some other reason not to buy… too expensive, or DoES nOt tRaNSfoRM!!

Honestly the only Pops I’ve ever touched or let into my house are the three main characters from Super Troopers (Ramathorn, Mac, and Farva). And a lot of that is that they’re not bad likenesses and the fact they were like $6 each at Fred Meyers.

I dislike Mighty Mugs. Pops are a scourge. Cheap plastic don't belong. Not in my house!

I must have this. I only collect certain POPs and this will be one of them.
