Star Wars Celebration Chicago is just a few days away and if you're a Funko Pop collector then you know that there are many new collectibles that are debuting at the event. Some of them are exclusive to Celebration and others will be shared with retail stores. There's a lot to cover in this post so let's get started!
The Blue Chrome Funko Pops are exclusive to Star Wars Celebration Chicago at the Funko booth (#4819) meaning that THEY CAN ONLY BE PURCHASED AT THE EVENT. They are also considered limited edition as there are only 2,500 of each of them made. For a chance at shopping the Funko Booth you must enter the Exhibitor Exclusive Lottery by 11:59pm Central Time on Monday, April 8th.
The Gold Chrome Funkos are shared exclusives which means those who are not attending the event will be able to purchase these figures at specific retail stores. Each one of these will be released on Friday, April 12th. Scroll down below to find where the figures will be sold.
In Celebration of The Phantom Menace, Funko will also be releasing Darth Maul and Watto Funko Pops! These are part of the shared exclusives and will also be available to purchase on Friday, April 12th. Scroll down below to find where each of these figures will be sold.
If you live outside of the U.S. you're in luck because Popcultcha offers worldwide shipping! They will have all or some of the new Funko Pops mentioned above. Unfortunately, they aren't allowed to say at this time. They will be available to purchase on Friday, April 12th at 9am (no time zone was specified in their announcement so I'm assuming this is Australian time) online and in-store. Please be sure to read their Funko Convention Exclusive Releases Memo before ordering.
