Funko partnered with GameStop to offer exclusive Black Friday mystery boxes for $20! So, of course, I had to grab a couple…. As of today, you can still buy them online: http://www.gamestop.com/collectibles/toys/funko-mystery-box-gamestop-exclusive/123889
They had a ton of them left when I came midday, so I’m guessing they didn’t sell as many as they thought they would. If there would have been 2 Funko POPs per box, I think more would have sold.
The Details: “Each box will contain 1 exclusive Black Friday Pop! vinyl figure, 2 ReAction figures, 1 Pocket Pop! Keychain and 1 Pop! Pin all for just $20! On top of everything else, each box also has a 1 in 8 chance of containing a super-rare chase Golden Pop! vinyl figure. The thrill of the Funko chase is on at GameStop this Black Friday!”
Box 1
GameStop Exclusive Blackest Night Superman Funko POP! ($38+ on Amazon) – This was the one I wanted most, so I was thrilled.
Batman POP Pin (Retail $3.99) – Filler. But it’ll be a nice stocking stuffer for my nephew.
Elsa Pocket POP Keychain (Retail $4+) – This will be a great stocking stuffer for my niece who loves my Funko collection and Frozen.
Big Trouble in Little China Gracie Law ReAction Figure (Retail $7.12) – Nice retro figure, but not scifi or fantasy – so I don’t really care for it.
Alien Ripley ReAction Figure (Retail $6.99) – Awesome figure, but I’m not collecting ReAction items – so not a keeper.
Box 2
EB Exclusive Batgirl Funko POP! ($28+ on Amazon)- Batgirl was the other POP I was hoping for, so I really scored!
Batman POP Pin – guessing these were in every box
Jason Voorhees Pocket POP Keychain (Retail $10.95) – Um, no thanks.
Predator (Unmasked) ReAction Figure (Retail $6.99 on Amazon) – Again, this will be finding a new home.
Tomorrowland Young Frank ReAction Figure (Retail $9.61) – Ok, as a huge fan of the movie, I’m actually keeping this one. He even comes with a little jetpack.
Summary: The value certainly surpasses the cost, if you’re into collecting all the figures. But the ReAction figures are a waste for me, as I don’t need something else to collect. I would have rather they had 2 POPs, maybe just 1 exclusive at $20 a piece, and leave out the ReAction figures.
