Let's start with my older ones because I got these around the same time when I first started collecting Funko Pops- which was a little before The Force Awakens Came Out.
So the two I have here are the older Han Solo... I don't have a box for any of them except for the 2 I just got in the mail today... which I'll talk about in a bit... but this is the Vault Edition I think... they came out in a blue box and then they were rereleased in a black box, this one was in a black box I think but it doesn't really matter because I don't have the box. I'm sure it wasn't the valuable one though lol. Anyway Han Solo is my favorite character so I really liked this one.
The Rey one... I kind of regretted getting the Hot Topic Exclusive one because it didn't look like Rey really... but now that I have the Rey from Rise of Skywalker- I'm glad this is the one that I got because it looks so different than that one and I think it's really cool. Also the sculpt of the body looks totally different too- so that's really kind of cool.
Okay so lets start with the ones I have on the bottom shelf because... I have closer looks at the pops on the top shelf and I think you can see the ones on the middle shelf pretty well.
So the Rise of Skywalker ones. so from Left to right... Jannah, Finn, Po, BB8, Rey and Lieutenant Connix and on the top shelf kind of blocked by Spider Man I have D-0. So I knew I wanted all the main characters in Rise of Skywalker because this might be the last time they make pops of them. Even though I already have a Rey pop, like I said she doesn't really look like Rey and this one is very cool. Rey has her lightsaber which is awesome and it just looks really great. Finn is one of my favorite characters too so I had to get him and I wanted Po and BB8 too... so I got those. D-0... I don't remember when I got- but I really love the droid pops because they don't look like pops at all... BB-8 kind of does... but D-0 really looks NOTHING like a pop! Jannah and Connix are both characters I like but they weren't like "MAN I NEED THESE POPS" because idk. They're just people pops, they don't look that cool. I do think the Zuri pop looks cool... but I didn't get her and I'm not sure I want her anymore because I have too many pops! Lol. Connix isn't really a character I knew- that is Billie Lorde's character- so that's why she looks SO MUCH like the Princess Leia pops- Billie Lorde is Carrie Fisher's daughter in real life... so they look alike to begin with and their pops look almost identical lol. I'm a big fan of Billie Lorde also- I loved her in Scream Queens and on American Horror Story. I think it was cool that they made her character a pop. I might switch her with D-0.
Also I should tell the story of when I got Connix and Jannah from Boxlunch because... this is really funny. So I was just going to get Connix and then when I got up to the counter and I said "Ohh all clearance pops are buy 1 get 2 free!" So I went over to the clearance shelf and they were all pops that were good... but not anything that would be anyone's top picks probably... but I feel like we were there at kind of there at a good time and they had some that we kind of liked. There was a Jason Blum pop, there were also a few James Bond ones that were kind of cool. Ultimately I ended up with Jannah, Connix and Kristoff from Frozen... and since it was on clearance and 2 of them were free it should have been like $5ish I think... but it ended up being $20ish... and when I got home I was like "Wait a minute- that wasn't buy one get two free because it was expensive..." And then I realized at the check out counter I saw they had Baby Yoda pop Sockets and I had wanted a new Pop Socket and wanted to get the Baby Yoda one before they sold out... so the Baby Yoda Pop Socket was like $15... so I don't think that's worth it... but it's been cute to have Baby Yoda as a pop socket right now. I'm happy with it.
And I don't have a Kylo Ren because I wanted the 10 inch one and I never ended up getting it... ohh well!
Okay so now the top shelf ones! Not top shelf as in these are the best ones... but they're on the top shelf lol.
I don't really have a good look at D-0... sorry! Lol. But here I have the Incinerator Trooper from The Mandalorian and I have Han Solo frozen in Carbonite. The Stormtrooper was one of my favorite parts of The Mandalorian- I think he looks really cool.
And the Han Solo in Carbonite is something I'm surprised didn't exist already... but I think they did a good job of it. That scene broke my heart as a kid because I loved Han Solo and I thought he died... but luckily he didn't and now I'm okay having a figure of this!
And then next to it I have Luke Skywalker with Yoda on his back. I loved this moment in the movie and I think it looks really good in a pop. I also love that now they seem to be embracing the fact that all Star Wars pops need to have a stand... and they have really cool themed stands in some of the newer pop lines. It just looks so great!
Anyway that is everything! I hope you guys like this! Let me know what your favorite Star Wars character is! Mine is Han Solo.
Bye!
