FULL TOUR 7 Bucks a Pop and Mystery Grail | Signature Series Funko Pop | Pop Shield Protector

[@justinsmith1042]

Thanks! I really liked seeing behind the scenes of 7 bucks a pop. I haven't bought any yet, but I might sometime. They are fun, but I never get anything good, so I started avoiding mystery boxes. I'm really excited about the new pop shield protectors for 6 inch and 2 packs.

[@Gastlecast]

Glad you enjoyed it! Mystery boxes are fun!

Really enjoyed this video. I have pulled out some really good pops from these mystery boxes. I'm going to keep buying. I get that people get a little upset when they lose money, I get it. But, it's easily the cheapest mystery boxes going right now with the possibility of huge grails. Thank you so much for sharing this video. Keep up the great work.

Mystery boxes are certainly not for everyone, and we get that. We really enjoyed the tour and are so glad that most people have said they did, too!😊

Great video really enjoyed this series mystery boxes are a mystery so if you can’t afford to lose money simply don’t buy mystery boxes that’s my opinion on it

I really enjoyed the video, it was nice to see the insides of the company. Regardless of what I feel about mystery boxes, 7bucksapop protectors are top-notch and they need to be praised for it, actually, I'm about to buy some hard protectors for my new grails.

Great video. Although I’ve never bought a mystery grail box (not opposed to it just haven’t lol) I love 7bucksapop and have bought many pops, popshields and pop armors from them!

[@Gastlecast]

We really love their pop shields, and the armors can't be beat, not even by Funko themselves! Listen, even if mystery boxes, or even just Mystery Grail boxes weren't for you, we totally get it. We aren't trying to sway anyone's opinion. Our whole purpose is to do our best to educate!

[@illinipopcollector4533]

@@Gastlecast oh I understand I’ve just not been quick enough to catch any boxes on the couple times I’ve had the extra money lol

[@richardsuplee8137]

Good video. the stuff near the end about the bulk stuff and how things go into the boxes was the best part (and possibly the best part of the series so far for me). Good to see that the decision is made if the pop goes into Mystery Grail or not and not 7 Bucks a Pop or not (at least for the collections boxes that goes to Mystery Grail), I think that is a wise decision there to avoid the perception of an innovatory dump as much as possible. Also side not but are 7 Bucks a Pop and Mystery Grail 2 companies or 1 company? I just see some inconsistency in how they are referred to.

[@Gastlecast]

We were very intrigued about the bulk pops, it's wild how much time, thought, and effort goes into what they have going on. And the fact that they never pack more than 2 of the same pop in one run is honorable and honestly we never would have thought that with how many commons are often in mystery boxes we have seen! That is a good question. We aren't sure of the exact business dynamic, but as a small business owner myself, I would assume they are separated as far as sales and all go, but maybe they are lumped together. We didn't think to ask.

[@richardsuplee8137]

@@Gastlecast yea. Mainly only matters for tax and legal reasons if they are 1 or 2.

Great tour video guys! Looking forward to the hard hitting questions 🤘 Be interesting to see what a 7.5 condition pop looks like as I haven’t seen anyone complain about pop conditioning. Just seems like a 7.5 is kinda low.

[@Gastlecast]

Thank you!

[@richardsuplee8137]

From ordering from 7BAP the pop might have some corner damage on a 7.5 but I don't notice any major tears until you get to a 7. If I'm being picky I look for a 8 or higher on that website

[@poppinpatty2507]

Now this is where I have to call BS! I know for a fact this video was scripted and edited perfectly because I have talked to Lee many times over the years n that dude cannot go more than 4 minutes without talking about his true love, he is constantly finding an excuse to bring up and talk about his electric purple Lamborghini (you guys know exactly what I'm talking about). If I had a nickel for every time I heard him talk about how much it cost to get a Lamborghini worked on I could eat nickel soup for the rest of my life, with a big spoon. I DID enjoy the tour, but it was a little disappointing. I was expecting something more like Lee n The chocolate factory mixed up with Lee in Wonderland (real life is so boring). I like the way he was talking to us through the entire process and being transparent about what goes into his boxes. I find nothing wrong with 15% or even 20 really of those boxes being filler, every other mystery box company does the same thing n most have a higher percent of strikeouts and multiple pops in a run. A great example is the legendary three-way mystery battle between Mr. Snowden's neighborhood, The pop savage,n The champ (otherwise known as the bearded pop hunter) himself. That one was pathetic, all three of them had the same pops, two of them had two out of the three boxes they got the identical pops.If that was what you see in three videos, how many of those multiples were sent out in that run?I Will admit those multiples had decent value but it was a dump no question about it and I know this because they all had special edition stickers. Love the video today! Must've been a ton of fun going to 7BAP headquarters. Can't wait for the big interview in Part 4🏎💜🏎💜

[@Gastlecast]

Thank you! You are hilarious 🤣

[@RABSTRAINS]

Also, why not do some store hunt videos. Change it up to keep the content fluid.

[@ClawrifficTv]

Labor intensive?

We watched the work that goes into these first hand, it all takes a long time. We were there for 4 hours total and they were non stop working the whole time. It's an incredibly well oiled machine but it is certainly not easy.

[@guyanthonygarcia]

What I don't understand is why should Lee have to explain about mystery Grails just because somebody got a little butthurt over not getting an instant Grail I think mystery Grails are good thing it's all about the fun of the mystery that's why it's called mystery boxes

[@Gastlecast]

I know. You'd think people would get it but some don't

[@Philawsofee]

It’s a way for a business owner to educated the ones with lower IQ’s, you know, somebody have to do it. But, I mean it works perfectly, Lee did his job and subscribers as myself can unsubscribe those channels, everyone that applauded that ignorant specimen 🙂

[@richardsuplee8137]

He doesn't have to but he decided to. He wanted his side out there and I respect it. Also I think its pretty clear the complaint went beyond being unhappy with a single pop.

[@guyanthonygarcia]

@@richardsuplee8137 I know he chose to do it but I'm just saying he shouldn't have to because it if if the complaint didn't like what he got then don't buy them no more, and not try to discredit

The company

[@CollectingPlastic]

Why wouldn't you interview Rudolph? The person who actually decides what goes into the mystery boxes? Lee said Rudolph has a system figured out... Why not ask him? Wasn't that supposed to be the point of the vid? Or is that proprietary info?

[@Gastlecast]

"If you want something done right, do it yourself." You had the opportunity to conduct a tour and interview your way and you declined, so we took that opportunity and did it our way. We do things in a professional manner, and putting an employee on the spot and grilling them for doing their job the way the owner hired them to do is not professional. We left the answering of questions to Lee. Stay tuned for the full interview with Lee tomorrow. We hope you gain the answers that you're looking for.

[@CollectingPlastic]

@@Gastlecast Oh it's just that you said you had full access. Thought the point was to figure out how the mystery boxes were put together. Didn't realize it wasn't about that. My bad.

What you watched was a tour video, look at the title. The questions video is tomorrow. Didn't realize we were going to have to spell everything out. When you watch our interview tomorrow, keep in mind we asked you if there were any questions you wanted us to ask Lee specifically, and you declined.

[@CollectingPlastic]

​@@Gastlecast I said my bad! Just seems like Rudolph is the man that would know. But this wasn't that kind of vid, I understand now. It was a vid to show the pops on the racks and the red and yellow boxes and the new pop armors and stuff. I get it now.

[@richardsuplee8137]

You can either take this video at the word or not. If you don't trust Lee (and I don't think people who never met him and only know him from the internet need to) then this video is pretty pointless and comes off as a promotional piece

[@Gastlecast]

I would advise you watch the video that we will post today with Lee answering questions. I think you will get some good info out of it 👍

[@Gastlecast]

And Richard, in our opinion, we think that the way 7 bucks a pop has been conducting business for years and has been a trusted seller is a good start to trusting him without meeting him.

[@richardsuplee8137]

@@Gastlecast I trust him enough to give my money to for pops I order. That's the extent of my relationship with him though. I do give him the benefit of the doubt that he is being truthful here. I can just understand why other people (such as this commenter and collecting plastic) are not trusting Lee. Yes 7 bucks a pop is a great company. But marketing is often built on minor manipulation. Always looking for the best way to describe something that is accurate enough to be truthful but also presents it in a way thats appealing. And no this is not meant to paint Lee as a villain for this. I tend to look at these things in a neutral stance even if the words I use might carry negative connotations.but I also think if you don't trust Lee then watching this video will be pointless
