Talkin’ Comic-Con: A Cup O’ Tea with An Englishman In San Diego
Here are some highlights from the podcast chat:
- They’ll be using a “new SDCC process” for distribution this year. McCann stressed that “it is important to [Funko] to get fans in those lines first”, and that they’ve been meeting with CCI since last year’s event ended to figure out this year’s distribution process. Although they wouldn’t nail down what this year’s process will be, McCann did say that she “expects” it to be a Sails ticket distribution.
- When asked whether they’d be teaming up with Conan again on exclusive Pop! figures when the show returns for the second year, McCann said, “I think everybody involved was very happy with that, and so, who knows?”
- The Funko booth will be getting a giant BB-8 — presumably similar to last year’s photo-op-perfect giant Hulkkbuster.
