I know what you needed more of in your life, NFT trading cards showing Funko Pop toys based on Mr Potatoe Head dressed up as either Bumblebee or Optimus Prime. Well Funko is there to help with their latest NFT lottery offering (here is a link to their previous one). It was revealed on their site that their next NFT lottery will include Mr Potatoe Head Transformers Funko pops among other Hasbro "retro" toys themed pops. Below is a breakdown of how it works, written by Pcsolyar, along with the NFTs and images of the physical Funko Pops you might win through this.

You buy a digital pack of NFTs (5 NFTs for $9.99 or 15 for $29.99) and have a very small chance of getting a rare one that comes with the physical product redemption. Optimus is the "grail" of the wave, with a 0.28% pull rate. The other 5 physical redemptions, including Bee, have a 1.72% pull rate. Most people just get worthless ones. It's just digital trading cards with the NFT buzzword tacked on and the chance to win a physical Pop! figure. And if you collect the full set, excluding the physical redemption ones, you get a bonus physical Funko of their mascot in a Hasbro t-shirt holding a Simon game.

These were successful enough last time to warrant a second go? That's unfortunate.

Electronic Arts would be so proud of Hasbro giving Funko the go-ahead on this.
Sad to read that this isn't their first rodeo with the NFT scam.

I'm glad to confirm that cranial nerves 3, 4, and 6 are fully functioning on me...because they just got sorely tested as I rolled my eyes so hard that my right eyeball made a popping sound...

Uhm, I thought this was Funko, not the Powerball.

Back in my day toys were made of plastic, not 0s and 1s.

The more I think about it, the more they're like those decorative prizes you can win in any given "free-to-pay" mobile game...

They will keep pushing that NFT garbage as long as people are willing to buy them.
Meh, business as usual.

Business people are simply people who have identified a niche and provided a service for it. In this case, they've identified the super-hipster niche who like digital things and don't have any brain power and believe that something with no physical form will not appreciate in value.

If the Eskimo is willing to buy ice, sell it to them.

Those digital Trump trading cards doubled in value.
NFTs will go up in value as much as people think they will (and buy them accordingly)

I know these were highlighted under the ROTB discussion but i thought i would post this here. At a Target in Springfield, MO I was able to find the Target exclusive ROTB Rhinox. In addition while looking on the shelves were they stock other Funko Pops, my wife found Optimus Prime for me.
Have to say for his size, Optimus Prime is very detailed. Whether I find the rest in a store or order them online, look forward to completing this group.

I found two more at a F.Y.E. store in the local mall. That would be Arcee and Scourge. As you can see from the photos Arcee does include a stand. I wasn't sure if it was connected like the stand for Rhinox. Again, for their sizes, they have a lot of detail.

So, I found the Big 3 at Gamestop, as well as an exclusive I somehow completely missed.

Sweet find D. I haven't found Primal yet. I spotted Mirage but didn't buy him ( i need to). Now that two pack is really cool. The GameStop stores near me don't seem to carry that much in regards to Transformer stuff but need to start looking.
