Funko Pop
I figured this would make for a good thread.
Do any of you guys own Funko Pop figurines? I'm planning on buying a Kylo Ren Funko. What about you guys? |
I think they are kind of creepy figures. But I do own an 11th doctor Pop

I have one of Leo that I only display because it was a gift (& my favorite turtle), but I kinda hate these things. Funko makes some other cool stuff, I support the company in general, just not Pop! I find the aesthetic to be unspired & lacking, the huge head gimmick is tiresome, I don't feel that the black eyes work to the benefit of characters who don't otherwise have them. The only thing that's really cool is how many licenses they've got, obscure & foreign ones, to boot. But that only makes me more frustrated that some of those series' only or 'quality' merch will be these pieces...

They are cute. I have Batman and Joker as Mez-itz. Not really something I imagine myself spending too much money on.

TMNT: All 4 turtles (several varients of Splinter and Raph), Rocksteady, and Bebop Doctor Who: 5th, 8th, 13th, Tardis, Dalek Star Wars: BB8, Chewbacca, R2D2, C3PO Star Trek: Picard MLP: The mane 6, the CMC (pre-cutie mark), Doctor Whooves (several varients), and many more DC: Batman (several varients) and Joker Marvel: The Avengers and GOTG Disney: Ariel, Ursula Sherlock: Sherlock Holmes |

I have way too many of these things. Collecting them is as addicting as crack.
I take them to work but now I have too many for my cube. Here is an old pic of my cube at work. http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/...psuedwzekp.jpg |
That looks good Zak. I could imagine collecting them to create a display like that.
|
I have:
Mahna Mahna Michaelangelo Tenth Doctor Twelfth Doctor in Spacesuit Dumbledore Commander Riker Conan O'Brien Timon |
Ive been collecting these now for just about two year. Most of my collection is in storage right now while I'm stationed in Korea but this is the small amount that I do have with me here.

Not really into it, but I do purchase ones that I really like.
I have:Batman and Robin -giant sized colossal Titan from Attack on Titan -Finn from Adventure Time Planning to get: -Deluxe Kyuubi/Kurama from Naruto, and Naruto -Bebop and Rocksteady -glow in the dark Jack Skellington |
I'm always on the fence about these. I can't decide if I truly like them or not. I'm more of a bobble head guy I guess.
|
They're ok. I've got a Superman and unless I find a Deathstroke or something, I probably won't ever buy another.
|
The only ones I have were given to me as gifts.
.TMNT Mikey .GOTG Groot .Deadpool |
I have over 80 of these figures as of right now, I'm a huge fan! Most of my collection is made up of Disney and Marvel characters.
|
I don't see whats the draw on these...

Got myself a Mega Man. They're neat little things, but I doubt I'll be a serious collector.

I wish they'd expand on the TMNT line. Give us the 2003 Turtles, give us movie turtles from the first couple of movies etc.

I like how they seem to have lots of different licenses. From Astérix to Street Fighter Funko Pops. Hell I've even seen a Darkwing Duck Funko Pop before. Speaking of Street Fighter, why is there a yellow and a green Blanka? I know swap palettes are a thing in fighting games in order to avoid confusion, but was that really needed? Seems like a clever way to get more collector's money.
That being said, never got any of their figures. I don't even think they look bad overall despite the big heads and round pitch black eyes. Thing is, I was never the type of person to collect things just for the sake of it. Buying a figure just to stand there and never touching it other than when I have to clean the dust off of it just seems pointless and a waste of money to me. I also stopped buying action figures once I outgrew playing with toys. I'd just buy a few Funko Pops... and then forget their existence or not even notice them any more after a few days. |
I'm not interested in collecting many, I have 2 and am thinking of getting Shredder, but not sure if to get the funko pop or bobble head.
|
I'd go for a bobble head, myself. Anything "normal" looking is better than those marshmallow headed black eyed... things... :tlol:
|
I ended up getting a bunch in a row as a birthday gifts
Ceres sent a Dalek Sec figure, knowing I like Daleks (and not realizing that Sec is the Best Dalek), then only a little while later did my boyfriend give me the whole BoJack Horseman set. So of course things look a little weird when they're all together :lol: I wouldn't collect any others past that, unless maybe I found another Dalek or two. |
I'm hoping the He-Man pops hit my area soon, I believe they're already out.
|
I've got a She-Hulk POP (the only one I've ever owned); I might get those TMNT figures in February to keep my display shelf green :tsmile:
|
Sorry to revive a thread.. (which also seems to have a few banned members in it)
Those of you who buy these, has anyone bought them from Pop in a box? Just saw it come up while I was searching for something and wondered if anyone had used it before. |

I don't know where you are, but for me in the US, they take a while they're mailed from the UK, so patience is a key. My ex and I subbed, the funny part is most of the time it was Pops she wanted, based on Disney princess stuff. I did score a Pac-Man pop and a 60's Catwoman pop though. |
