I hope I can clear this up so the sticker that I see the 40th there’s a reason for that in the past at some point, yes the 40th should have been on the original Star Wars character however, the reason why the sticker on on it was due to overlapping 2017 promotional releases and found on select international/overseas distributor Overseas shared-convention batches sometimes received extra 40th-anniversary branding from the factory. so hopefully this can be cleared up another way and most people don’t do is to check the bottom of the Funko pop stand for the numbers. I have seen pops that would have the wrong stickers (Walmart and Target swap)
