@MayTheFunkoBeWithYou has posted a great shot revealing the upcoming GameStop Exclusive POP! Rey (with X-wing Pilot Helmet) figure from Funko. Look for this in stores in June.

It’s official, the 6″ Rey (Starkiller Base) figure has hit retail thanks to this tweet from @mtg_player.

By all accounts, this looks to be a simple re-package of the Nerf Luke Skywalker Bladebuilders Lightsaber that hit stores on Force Friday (yes, there was product released that day) but now with Rey taking front and center on the card art – as she should.
Thanks to @thisginger_kt on Twitter for the heads up.
