What do you guys think of the soda coolers?
absolute ass. they want to "cut down" but create fred? first one was good then the sprite and coke ones? coolers are shit
Aww thank you for the shout out. It was great to have you guys on, it was a lot of fun! Funko really needs to start listening to the customers more in my opinion. I really think they would be a lot more successful if they listened to the buyers more. They really need to do nostalgia more and FINISH a lot more of the lines they have started.
You said it Teresa!
If they made a simpsons one they could make the bag duff themed
I bought a few of the x-men coolers for $30. I love sodas. Love them. I hope Funko does not discontinue the soda line. I think they are awesome. Great video!!
We hope so too Scott! Thanks for watching!
Bro you should work for them. Awesome idea!
I wish! Maybe some day
From now on, if they make 8k of each soda character, then 4k gets sold in a cooler bag and the rest are available for individual sale. That way you can buy the set with the bag, then go back and grab the character you really wanna chase without ending up with extra bags and commons.
Good thinkin!
Great Vid! I agree with you! At this point Funko should take all the coolers, and pull out the soda’s, then sell them individually. That will help eliminate their problem of storing this glut of coolers, and as you pointed out, would make them more money in the long run. For collectors it would give them the chance of possibly getting that chase they need for their collection.
Trying to not stress is not an easy thing to do. But it is good advice to not stress the small things in life. Just let some things go and not worry as much.
Hope you get better soon snd your pain becomes more tolerable.
Thank you... excellent points. And thank you for the well-wishes.
That actually does sound like a good idea at a certain point for when a cooler has been out for a while and is not selling out. I know I would pick up some individual extras but I would still buy the whole cooler at first. I hope we still get coolers in the future. Awesome video!
We hope that we get more coolers in the future as well!
Here in Australia we miss out on so many pops and Sodas I would love to see more come here and I’m sure loads of Aussies would feel the same way. I would LOVE to get the Peanuts Soda Cooler most of all 🥰
As an Australian I 100% agree with your comment. I want the peanuts soda cooler too. We miss out on way too much. Funko needs to allow us to buy directly from their website. Plus we need more Aussie stores selling them too.
yeah we didn't get the peanuts in uk/europe either, strange
Yeah, I think individually selling the sodas and throwing in the bag if you buy six would be cool. Teresa has an awesome collection of sodas. Great supporter of the collecting community. Praying that the pinched nerve gets better!
That would be pretty awesome... and thank you for the well-wishes!
Two chases per six pack.
The soda cooler is a good product for those who really want all six characters or if you just like all six sodas in the cooler. Like me I only have gotten the Ninja Turtle, Petter Pan and Peanuts coolers. There is some chases from those coolers that I would like to get and maybe eventually I will. I wish Funko would had put the Airbender cooler for 50% off. I would had bought one. After watching you and Joana open this cooler line, I fall in love with it. Hoping that it will go on sale in the near future. I would be happy having all commons.❤️🌹🌹🌸💐🪻
Sounds great Evelyn... happy hunting and hope you get it!
Great idea, John! I would for sure try to complete some of the soda cooler chases this way. I would love to get more coolers, but I'm running out of space haha. All i wish is a friends soda cooler, that would be epic
That would be so epic!! Our niece, Emma, would totally rock that to school everyday. She currently uses the Peanuts cooler as her lunchbox!
I like your idea cough funko cough. Also, I'd love to see a resurgence on Funko Sodas to see more IPs made. Also, great motivation, by the way, is so easy to sweat the little things.
Thank you... and yeah, the little things are so not worth it!
I always grab them on discount .... got a lot of cooler packs sodas for like 30 $. I love them im always gonna pick them up at discount
I like some of the coolers and have gotten 4 of the ones they released. The cooler bag itself is a problem, cause lack of space. I think the bags are cool, but they do take up space. I wouldn`t mind a Star Wars cooler of course. And after watching the awesome Avatar show on Netflix, I`m kind of interested in that cooler. However I just might buy Avatar sodas separately. Anyway, thanks for another great video John. 👍🏼😃
Thanks Norway!
Soda coolers are awesome
They are for sure!
I love the coolers
One of my favorite things besides getting a chase is the loungefly cooler bag
I think they’re awesome!
If they can afford to put them on sale they should continue to do that
However going forward, if they want to sell out in the future they need to LOWER THE PIECE COUNT
Thank you jraya91!
Wow, I feel you with the pinched nerve buddy. That sort of thing is not fun, and stress levels cause tension, which will only elevate the pain. 😢
I really like the idea regarding the soda coolers. Your suggestion has amplified the idea I came up with, so I have nothing more to add sadly.
Thank you Anderson! I still appreciate this comment. And yes, I’m very much looking forward to this pain going away. It’s been absolutely awful and I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.
@Slapshotpops I had a motorcycle accident at 19yrs old which required lower back surgery and years of physio to get me to 75% mobility. I have medication and learned how to move etc to minimise the impact. I understand how nerve pain can affect you day to day life, my sciatic nerve was damaged in the accident and that pain can be crippling. I know you have a busy life, but try to rest as much as you can my friend.
I do like your solution. It's hard because I love the idea of the coolers and want more themes, but we just got our first one and there were only a couple chases we wanted. Money wise I'd rather buy that one chase on after market rather than all six for just a chance of that chase. It's a weird one for sure since I love the idea maybe they just need another method of execution.
That’s a good point. It’s definitely cheaper to buy one Chase than to buy another cooler. I think they need to mix things up for sure. Thank you for watching guys 😁
Funko could sell them to the overseas market, because people in Australia, would like to get them without paying a double price tag for them
Exactly!
Absolutely.
Get well man, I have had pinched nerves from sleeping and it may be the worst pain. Shot down to my elbow and fingers. Feel better!
It’s honestly the worst pain I’ve ever experienced in my life. Thank you for well wishes 🙌🏻
Great video. Take care of yourself and Joana. We need kind people like y'all. Take care👊🏾
We’re trying! Thank you Tommie 🙌🏻
I don't like Sodas because the price is WAY too high, they don't display that well, and the mold designs aren't as good as modern pops, most are really off-brand and amateur looking. There's some exceptions, I think Sonic, Peanuts, Yogi Bear, Stitch, Jack Skellington, and some other unique character shapes like that do work well, but most of the figures don't live up to the drawing or their full POP counterparts. I also genuinely think the price is so high because it's meant to prey on gambling addition with all of them being chance of chase... If they had no chases, I bet far fewer people would buy them anywhere near retail, it's that chance of getting lucky and profiting that tricks people into being comfortable with spending so much more as a baseline. I buy most of my pops for 3-8 bucks, add a protector for 60 cents, and I think that's really nice value for how they and the boxes look, how they stack and display without any other case and how they can be enjoyed like that without opening them, etc.
Not sure how the price is WAY too high, when most sodas are $15, and some exclusives $18, which is about the same as a Pop. As far as the molds, they aren’t supposed to be better or worse than Pops, they are smaller and designed to fit in a can and look good in their own way as a different translation of the specific character. Perhaps Funko is trying to “prey” on those with gambling addictions however, Pops have chases as well, which people buy multiples of hoping to pull a chase. Card collectors buy dozens of packs hoping to get rare cards. Content creators in lots of different genres buy mystery boxes hoping to pull valuable items. There’s dozens of things that can be considered gambling, yet are low risk and people buy them because they are exciting. Sodas are a different part of the Funko collecting hobby and I think they’re great because they offer that excitement and thrill. Plus, most of them go on sale for $10-$12 nowadays so you can drastically increase your odds of getting a chase for less money. I bet a lot of anime Pops with chases would be worth much, much less if they didn’t have a chase Pop variant. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I think that Sodas are a great collectible that a lot of people are missing out on.
Personally, I only causally collection and I’m not a fan of the coolers. For the Peter Pan one, I’m not a big fan of the Peter Pan movie but I am a big fan of Tinkerbell from the Disney fairies movies so I wanted her soda. I wasn’t going to pay 100 but I decided to buy with this sale and will hopefully be able to get rid of the rest of them! Definitely agree with your plan tho because also I feel like even at a discounted price people might not want all because they simply don’t have the space
Exactly! It comes down to the space too...
I always miss the sales
I’m really sorry to hear that 😢
The bags always look great, I am surprised that doesn’t draw more people to them and yes the ip is a big thing with a high number of 12000 if not all the characters are as popular. I think yours is a viable solution.
Thanks Barry...
I picked up all the coolers except power rangers on sale! And yes I got the x men for $30!
The only time they really seem worth it tbh, good on you though that’s awesome
@@mr.baripooh7278 yeah I didn’t have any coolers yet or the sodas so seeing that they were that cheap I figured I would get one of each. At least it’s not a total loss and I can resell the bags if I want to
That is AMAZING! Congrats!
This is something that Funko did to themselves and if they were to do what you say, that would be more fanatics pissed off than there already are... people are gonna rant about why they had to get the whole thing to obtain that one character they wanted... which is the same reason why many people have left the hobby because of Funko making decisions like that... for example those pops that Funko forced people to get along a mystery box with unwanted pops and now they sold the pop individually... this Funko downfall began SDCC 2020 with that Bakugo exclusive. So if Funko doesnt start making smarter decisions, well, its gonna get worse.
We hear ya Luis... thank you for watching.
Honestly, in my opinion, I think the issue is how many their dropping at once. There dropping too many and people don’t just have a few hundred dollars lying around.
It is a popular opinion... thanks for watching..
Need broader appeal in soda cooler themes. Make Disney, Funko, Marvel, etc. themed coolers. A Nickelodeon cooler comes to mind. Folks can mix and match sodas from a number of shows/properties. One cooler but not limited to one show or franchise.
I agree, that’s a good idea Les. We would definitely be down for a Nickelodeon cooler 🔥
I would love to see a 3 liter shredder soda with a glow super shredder chase
That would be pretty cool Preston!
A pinch nerve is never good. I live with CRPS so I understand. Take it easy and doing some lego gets your mind off of it and it slowly moves it back. Good luck with everything and take it slow.
Thank you Deanna, I’m sorry to hear that you have some nerve challenges as well. The pain is awful so yes I’ve been doing anything I can think of to take my mind off of it.
i honestly didnt know that they came out with these tbh but im thinking of getting the x men 1 if i had to choose.
The X-men one is great! You should definitely get one next time they’re on sale
I think there to hi😊
Great video John, keep it up!
Thank you Hunter!
I agree send them the your proposal
Thank you Bennetta!
Dc and marvel coolers as well
The only cooler I’ve bought so far is the Scooby Doo one…might consider another one if the right one came out
Thats completely understandable Michele. The Scooby one is awesome
the Peanuts Cooler was NEVER released in Europe ...
Which is a real shame. Funko is missing out on a lot of sales
@@Slapshotpops totally ! I wanted it so badly :(
On coolers. For me 100 on one item is budget killer. Yea on sale thought about but still what else I can get with my money on sale. Of all those sale ones Peanuts would be the one but really only for Linus.. Do not get me wrong I have a cabinet full of sodas My only cooler is Scooby-Doo..
The choice of coolers out there just not up my alley. What hurts Funko was ramming to many soda out. Collectors could not keep up. Then the unnumbered sodas just killed the fun... Then with sale after sale no more rush to buy sodas or most shop items right off at full price.. I am a huge MCU fan not so much Xmen characters. A cooler say original Avengers movie of Hulk,Thor,Cap,Ironman with chase of each. Then Hawkeye and Black Widow with there chases being Fury and Agent Colson.. I buy that right off.. O r a good thought out Star Wars cooler..boom take my money..
I hope sodas keep going. Funko just got do it right. Have great day..
Very good points... thanks so much for watching!
They are not on sell for me
The sale is over unfortunately, but I'm sure they will do it again soon!
Hi, and good morning. Where is can find an avatar soda cooler, in which website?
I need a website that shipping to the state of Israel.
I would have bought a few of each if I actually knew about the sale! Lol
It was only a few days last week, and I don’t think Funko advertised it super well.
I agree and I think you hit it on the head. Collectors know when you buy a cooler your guaranteed a Chase but your also guaranteed 5 commons. I think people would rather have a chance at no chases then knowing your absolutely getting 5 commons.
Like sodas, hate the cooler
Fair enough! What do you hate about it?
@Slapshotpops Don't see the use for it. I wouldn't mind taking another soda in place of it.
I like the scooby-doo cooler
That one was fantastic!
Awesome CZcams video today on your CZcams channel today #slapshotpops.
Thanks Peter!
Does Funko only sell coolers in North America? sounds like they are missing a huge fan base if they dont sell to other country's direct. They are made in china and have distribution overseas
As far as I know, they do sell them over in Australia, but it’s extremely expensive for the collectors to buy. They’re mainly sold here in North America. They should give more opportunities to collectors overseas to get them. Great point 😁
They to do new coolers
New coolers would be great!
Perhaps they can drop them in Europe….
That would be smart!!
Yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaa
Wooohooooo!
I want to see the flinstons cooler jetsons cooler anotjer scoopydoo spondge bob cooler love to see hey aronald rugrats alvin and the chip mucks disney cooler loonie toons
Sodas are trash, once they came out with non piece counted sodas they started going downhill funko in general isn't what it used to be I don't ever think funko will die but they will never be what they once were
Funko may not ever get to the peak that it once was, however I respectfully disagree that sodas are trash. Plenty of people, including myself, really enjoy collecting them. Thanks for the comment.
@@Slapshotpops to clarify, I may have over exaggerated it but I was once you and loved sodas and was a completionist I think them not doing piece counted sodas ruined it for me personally I get other people still love them but with a lot of sodas value isn't there anymore most of the time unless you have the platform that you do, it's hard to get even close to what a soda is worth, it just became a bad investment for me that's all, I do enjoy all your whatnot auctions and CZcams though I think you and Joana are amazing in the community 😊
I’m a fan of the X-Men Cooler! Bought 3 of them during the recent sale at $30 each and got Storm, Cyclops, and Wolverine as chases. The coolers will make for a fun, nice lunch bag ☺️.
That’s awesome Miguel! Glad to hear that you were able to take advantage of the sale 🥳
