Funko Soda Figures!

Postby **YeetGrimes** » Thu Oct 03, 2019 7:05 pm

These are absolutely amazing! It reminded me of when they made actual soda that one SDCC. Those were too cool. I really love these too! So far it looks like they're doing a lot of classic characters (Brian's choice, most likely lol

And a great choice he made!). I wonder if they aim to do more modern ones in the future. I'd love to see my favorite clown :clown:

Yeah interesting design. Can’t wait to see more pics of it. lol

I need one of each of these ASAP. So cool

Oh man another line to collect.. $\:D/$

I really didn’t want to collect another line of figures but these soda figures look amazing. I am definitely going to have to pick some of these up.

Exactly Nick! (I should have read the replies before I excitedly rushed to rave about them )

The slim bodies is what reminds me of them. The one piece sculpt for blow molding. Doubt these will be holo or even blow molded like the Spastiks but they sure remind me of them, and I LOVE it!

I'm with you, buddy......this is exactly what I needed from Funko to get me out of the pop lull, love it

That's what I've been wondering for years. At least give me a Funko credit card program

I’d sign up for that. I’m sure it would make my life so much easier.

It would be awesome! Rewards program and being able to choose from some characters to feature on your card like the business cards employees get.

After I read your message that was exactly what I was thinking.

I love these, which I am sorry all but based in past experiences (Hikari, Vynl, Invaders...) that means they are doomed.

Seriously though, I dig them. The can packaging idea is fun but from a marketing and point of sale perspective, I fear the name and can may hurt the line and it's potential for success. Just my 2 cents...

i'm also somewhat in a 'defensive' mindset with these...while i'm excited about them, i don't want to get overly attached too fast just like i did with hikari

Thanks for linking that, with all the excitement of releases I forgot all about the actual spot he did on tv for it.

Interesting looking figures. I can't wait!

Postby **Geescube** » Fri Oct 04, 2019 3:17 pm

at first glance I am not feeling them tbh, BUT they may grow on me. AND if you really get to pop the top like a soda can... I like that.

No! Don't you mention that! We cannot speak it into existence.

In all seriousness, I was just thinking about this like 10 minutes ago. I probably thought of it because I was eating Boo Berry cereal lol

Funko better not skip out on Boo Berry again. Still bummed we haven't seen him as a Vynl. because the set just looks off without him there.

Ooooo, I got to see some more angles of them from this video. Looks like there is a cyan/ blue Big Boy I haven't seen pictures of yet. The Skeletor looks awesome

Postby **MorbidGee** » Sun Oct 06, 2019 1:05 pm

I absolutely love these and think they would be great for me to display at work

All are awesome!!!!!! <3 <3 <3

Really digging these. I hope the line continues and expends to different lines (DBZ / MHA please)

When I saw it, I thought it was separate as well. But since these are inside the can, they will never see the light of day lol

I figured they've already got cereal and this was just another step in their quest for supermarket domination! :devil:

I do love these, they are fun and could be cute as gifts for friends too! Very accessible!

That's exactly why I thought there was soda inside lol

Definitely a Fantastik Plastik vibes to these for sure! I love that they kind of upgraded it and brought it back!

It makes me wonders if Funko will find a way to package the cans so they are not sealed. Like have the cans, unsealed, in a box. If not I guess I’ll have to be an ‘in-can’ collector too

I wonder what 6-pack we will get first. lol

With surprise variants inside the can, I guess I will not be an in can collector.

LOL I love this lol

The can will look nice beside the figure!

Postby **YeetGrimes** » Mon Oct 07, 2019 9:42 am

When I first saw these, I totally thought Funko was making soda again (the first time being at SDCC - dang, I wish I was there for that). Both what I though and what Funko actually has are awesome lol

Nice that would work. But I believe they would seal it. Only time will tell ](*,)
