Now, Funko has issued a statement explaining what's going on, and it's good news and bad news. In an ꦰemail to those who placed pre-orders, shared by DisTrackers, Funko writes tha💖t turning Astro Bot into a Pop has been "trickier than expected", comparing the process to a surprise boss battle.

Funko Has An Update For Those Of You Waiting For Its Astro Bot Pop

Seems Turning Astro Into A Funko Pop Is Harder Than It Looks

Unfortunately, the update isn't finally here because your Astro Bot Funko Pops are now winging their way to you. Their overdue release date has been pushed back, and now the Pops aren't expected to be with the customers who ordered them last December until November 12, 2025. That'll mean almost a year will have passed between pre-order and delivery, and by the time you 🦩have them, we♍'ll be arguing over 2025's GOTY nominees.

There's also no extra stock, which means if you missed out, you st🀅ill can't buy one. Annoying, but probably for the best that Funko doesn't add more orders before it has dealಞt with the original ones.

Funko has acknowledged that's not okay, particularly after waiting a month beyond the announced release date to provide an update, and has thrown in something to try and soften the blow. Those who placed an Astro Bot Funko Pop pre-order should have been sent a $5 voucher to spend on their next Pop. Yes, that does technically mean giving Fu💯nko even more money, but if youꦐ planned on buying another Pop, you can now get it for less.

On the bright side, Astro Bot's Funko Pop release being pushed to the end of the year means the game's continued wave of momentum will hopefully continue throughout 2025. Free bonus levels have kept people going back to the GOTY, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:and more levels are coming on July 10. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Astro⭕ 💃Bot's Nendoroid was also restocked in May, but if you're only🎃 just learning about that now, you're almost certainly too late.
