I'm still amazed these haven't been done considering what has been done in the Sports line.

yeah stanford mascot and band are borderline offensive to other schools who take it seriously. the band really rubs me the wrong way because ohio state (cousin went there not me but born and raised ohio) and a lot of other bands across the country take it very seriously. including scholarships. they always say the band never loses. :cheers:

It would be the first tree pop that looks like a child designed it but would be extremely spot on

The Big Ten in general takes the marching band to a different level, with OSU being one of the best.

No, this is a grade school art project made out of felt, being used as a mascot at a prestigious University.....

Well, they did a Bucky mascot in the past, so we can still hold out hope for these college mascots. The problem is greedy NCAA licensing.

okay so I had to google this lol

.."It is a rich and vivid metaphor for the very pulse of life." The Mascot: There is no official mascot at Stanford University. The "Tree," which is a member of the Stanford Band, is representative of El Palo Alto, the Redwood tree which is the logo of the city of Palo Alto"

Kind of makes more sense....and the way to make a tree more lovable is to give it childish characteristics

True. Crappy thing is, along with the Bucky wobbler you're referring to, there actually was an unreleased Brutus Wobbler of which I've only seen pictures in others collections. I'd kill for it or the proto of it I've seen maybe once.

Mascots have been on my mind a lot lately. Don't think NCAA mascots are my cup of tea, but I'd def love to see more MLB mascots in the future if possible. Maybe even some NBA mascots

I wouldn't be mad at NBA mascot. Especially if they had my beloved Lucky spinning the basketball.

I am just purely guessing. There are a TON of licensed products of mascots out there. I think POPS might infringe on another licensee's territory.

This i a legit item if being on a legit fanatics.com website. and its a lego knockoff.

so who knows.

i dont know which way it goes. did star wars get the ncaa license or did ncaa get the star wars license lol

Is this an area Funko has interest in exploring? It seems that college mascot Pops could probably sell well. Licensing hurdles aside, I think the following would be a good lineup:

Rameses - North Carolina
Tommy Trojan - Southern California
Oregon Duck - Oregon
Big Al - Alabama
Albert - Florida

Any others?

Duke Blue Devil for me.

I would LOVE a Buzz (from Georgia Tech) Funko Pop! I would buy fifty in a heartbeat!!

Postby **mactds** » Thu Mar 08, 2018 3:36 pm

With March Madness coming up, I can't help but think of all of the mascots on the sidelines, and how many would look great as pops. Sold at campus bookstores.

Postby **Lexi** » Thu Mar 08, 2018 3:39 pm

This is a great idea, I hope that they would do this. Originally from Southern Calif, so would love to support my hometown teams.

Postby **BulletproofMarsh** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 1:35 pm

I'd definitely buy a few...
Mountaineer Man
Wolverine
Fighting Irish
Florida Gator
Just a few off the top of my head that I'd buy most definitely.
