As Funko gains popularity, their convention booth procedures continue to evolve. Last year, they introduced wristbands and this year, Funko has gone one step further by eliminating the need to line up for a wristband.
For New York Comic Con 2016, Funko has moved to an online raffle system that anyone interested must enter before September 26 at 12:01 AM. Winners will be notified by October 1 of the date and time of their entry into the Funko booth. Announcements for NYCC Exclusives began today and participation in this process is required in order to have a chance to visit the Funko booth at NYCC!
Rules
This random drawing is for a chance to get a ticket to purchase items at the Funko booth.
- Attendee & professional badges only. No exhibitors.
- One application per person only.
- Winning a ticket does not guarantee you any specific item at the Funko booth. Items may sell out by the time you reach the front of the line.
- You must have a valid NYCC 2016 pass for any days you select. No exceptions. They will be checking your Fan Verification profiles to ensure that if you win the lottery for a specific day, you have a badge for that corresponding day.
- Tickets are awarded randomly for a specific date and time and must be redeemed for that specific session only. No exceptions.
- Tickets are not transferrable and ID will be checked.
- You must bring your ticket to the Funko booth to be scanned at the time of your session.
- There will be a strict limit of one of each item per ticket.
- You will not be able to line up at the Funko booth before your session begins.
- Every person in line will require a ticket. No exceptions.
ADA attendees must also go through the same process as noted above.
Sucks we only get a random chance at being able to purchase Funkos. Pretty upset I was going mainly for that only to find out that I can’t even buy any because I “randomly” wasn’t chosen. I rather just wait in a long line…
