I'm actually saving my popcorn for the official announcement from Funko ;D Things are never official until Funko says so, but don't shoot the messenger because he's not saying a source. The same conversation was had at multiple FDO's around the country.

Everybody thought the girl who said a second Fundays was coming in 2016 was absolutely crazy, but she was actually right with Fright Night happening a few months later. There were also rumors this past fall that Funko would be throwing a New Years Eve party at Funko HQ, but that ended up being false.
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed

And you know that notion just crossed my mind

I did; I think I was posting those while you were posting yours.  I apologize for my goofy humor and will bail from the shenanigans

OK, what is "FDO?"

Is it the popcorn we got at Fundays last year?  That was insanely good popcorn!
I actually ordered more of that popcorn with the coupon inside the box. So good!
If Funko does do the offsite, I am excited to see the exclusives. Even if I will never be in the same room with some of them.

Funatics Day Out - just a big gathering of Funko fans at different locations around the world. Just a way for people to get out and hang out with other collectors.

I have a hunch Funko will be changing the procedure for the Pop up shop this year.  The neighborhood was getting quite upset about us campers.

I am not sure how they could not change how it was done in some way or form.  If it stays the same basically it requires getting to SDCC days before SDCC even starts.

Are there any displays in the pop up shop?  Like prototypes or picture opportunities?  I don't have much interest in scoring any exclusives but I figured if the store has something cool to check out, I might wander over after everything has been bought up.  Or is it strictly a store just like the booth in the convention center?

Just a store, from what I understand they close up once sold out.

Just hanging out here on the sidelines with my popcorn ;D

i came here to take a break from the dumpster fire on funatics and i run into this? 

casey you put too much butter in the popcorn.  go back and get another bucket.  and get ready for the day of the general sale.  take a day off so you can watch it burn !

I'm hearing from reliable sources and from several people who attended FDO's that it is common knowledge the shop is not happening this year.  Of course we never know until it's official but I think [member=5189]everlastingwhy[/member] was correct when she said there isn't going to be one.   I won't be giving the reliable sources of course, I do trust them though.

I feel like it's the same group of people spreading this.  Like Rev over on Funatics had a rumor attributed to him that he never even said.  Not to be a knock on Funatics; but they're a jumpy bunch.
