Funko's Star Wars POP Re-Release Continues With Slave Leia

Calling all fans of Slave Leia! Funko continues their release of vaulted Star Wars Pop Vinyl. In celebration of the new movie, they will be re-releasing previously vaulted Star Wars Pop!'s until the film's release. This is an excellent opportunity for people who missed out on the original release of these fantastic collectibles. Most of the time when you go into stores that carry the original ones, they can be insanely overpriced. So this is a nice gesture on Funko's part. Just so you know, these re-releases will come in special edition packaging, so you won't have a hard time distinguishing them from the originals.

Slave Leia is one of the most memorable costumes from the Star Wars series, and has long been the fantasy of countless amounts of fans. Seeing this Pop also reminds me of the episode of Friends where Ross confesses to having the Slave Leia fantasy. Anyone else remember that classic scene? No? Well, I've posted that below, along with a compilation of scenes from Return of the Jedi.

Slave Leia is the second Pop! to be re-released and will be available this April.
