Why do you always take me down when I want to say what's on my mine. I'm tire of you doing this to me. The reason I said when is because I know they will do them but don't know when. And the way how this movie has done I wouldn't be to surprise to see more then from Frozen out.

Are you certain of this? Did I miss the concept art or discussion? :-/

And the figures are usually made before the release date for movies to promote the movie. They also release figures before DVD/Blu-Ray releases as a promotion as well. If the concept art hasn't even been drawn up yet, I think it would take too long from conception to production to actually make these anytime soon.

I think Tangled would be cool. I really liked it and pascal is so adorable

they could do Rapunzel, Flynn, Maximus and Pascal

ok, so Brian just announced Tron and a new wave of Muppets when Muppets Most Wanted comes out that will include Sam the Eagle and the Swedish Chef

Seeing that the numbering on the Nemo set is getting close to 100 is crazy! LOL. SO MANY POPS!!!

Postby **wraithkelso** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 12:51 am

Brian just said that Frozen will be made!!

Postby **witcheemon** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 1:03 am

The second wave of beauty and the beast was announced in the Christmas thread. Lumiere, cogsworth, mrs Potts and belle in her peasant dress were all confirmed.

Thanks. I didn't see that. Hurray! :cheers:

Additionally, I do think they will go back and release other Disney products. I can't imagine Mulan, Lion King, Pocahontas, and a few other Disney movies not having any characters turned into POP. As popular as they were... they probably will just slowly release these alongside new movie releases

Postby **MadderhattersAladdin** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:32 pm

I believe tron will be a big hit! cant wait for them hoping for sam, clu, tron, kevin flynn, and Quorra

Postby **MadderhattersAladdin** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:39 pm

And where was tron officially announced?

Postby **Geescube** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:43 pm

Nope ^ the pops are not for Tron Legacy. They are Tron Originals. No sam no quorra.

Read Brians announcement here. First post near the end:

Postby **MadderhattersAladdin** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:47 pm

Postby **MadderhattersAladdin** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:53 pm

And how do you know its not tron legacy most people refer to tron legacy as just tron. And even if they are the original tron i think tron legacy would look much cooler.

Postby **MadderhattersAladdin** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:56 pm

Oh never mind forget that last post i didn't see Brian's announcement it didn't show up right away on my screen thanks!!

Postby **Geescube** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 7:56 pm

Because Tron Legacy has certainly never been referred to as Tron "Classic." I havent even seen the first Tron so like you I would much prefer the Tron legacy characters BUT that is not what is happening here.

Postby **MadderhattersAladdin** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 8:07 pm

All i was saying is that some people refer to tron legacy as just tron since sometimes tron classic is overlooked. And i have seen the first tron costumes are definitely not as cool.

Postby **wraithkelso** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 8:36 pm

hey guys, so I decided to pull a Brian announcement type of tracker with this on the first post... I updated the first post with what I know about. Do you guys think I should also include updates about Muppets, Marvel, and Star Wars since they are all part of the Disney family?? I'd need some help finding those announcements so that part of why I left them out for now

Postby **wraithkelso** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 10:40 pm

Beauty and the Beast: Peasant Belle, Lumierre, Cogsworth, an Mrs Potts

^

I think you've got everything there now. (I didn't even know about the Bambi ones, so that's new for me!)

Postby **SuperDanOfSteel** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 2:00 am

The hipster Belle and Jasmine aren't on the list, although Hipster Belle has been seen so that might technically be out already and not technically to come.

Postby **Chubbyninja** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 3:21 am

I'm all over the Who framed Roger RabbiT. I need a funko to release a Jessica Rabbit with metallic dress. And maybe the taxi...I can only dream!!!

Postby **TheLastDude** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 5:17 am

Oooooh! Benny in the Rides line? I'm totally sold. That would be awesome!

Postby **gkredhead** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 6:14 am

Finding Nemo has also been released now, so no longer to come!

Postby **Poncho Pete** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 6:46 am

So many awesome Disney pieces coming. Super excited.

according to amazon not until 2/1... I figure once I see a figure at a physical store, not just the big pop stores then I'll take it off the "coming soon" list

Postby **doctony** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 6:51 am

Postby **gkredhead** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 6:54 am

oh ok, they're in the physical store now at Popcultcha in Geelong so I figured that meant they were out

Postby **wraithkelso** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 7:02 am

I have an email out to a few of the local stores here... I always find it odd that I live 5-10 miles from their main office and yet we usually don't see the new figures as soon as other areas

Postby **tinkerbell055** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 11:14 am

Pretty sure there are going to be more characters in the GotG line.

Is Robin Hood def. going to be the only one for his movie? I was hoping they'd do Prince John, too. :P

As far as Guardians goes, I really hope they also do Gamora and Rocket Racoon, who I'd honestly rather have then Drax or Groot.

As to Robin Hood, Brian didn't specify either way and mentioned him when he mentioned Aladdin, Aurora, and a few others...

To all, I could swear I saw Bambi and Robin Hood listed in the 12 days of christmas thread, but now they aren't listed... Am I missing something? Or incorrectly remembering which thread it was in?

Postby **wraithkelso** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 11:29 am

Mods, would we be able to make this thread a sticky since it encompasses a lot of the Pop lines??

Postby **jambes** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 11:56 am

Oh man I missed Flower??? Cant wait to see him!

I think the Groot one looks awesome myself, but I could live without Drax. I'm 95% sure I saw someone say that Rocket had been confirmed. He was my most hoped-for. Ronan is my 2nd most hoped-for.

The fact that GotG is getting its own line of mystery minis makes me think that the Pop wave will be pretty big for some reason. :P

I'll keep my fingers crossed for more RH characters, but the fact that he was mentioned with Aladdin and Aurora... well, there aren't many more characters that could be done from those movies. Maybe Abu and Dragon Maleficent (I would KILL for the dragon version of her; I'd buy a Prince Philip Pop, too, tbh.).

I don't remember seeing Bambi until I read this thread. I could be remembering wrong though.

Postby **moonfire-23** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 1:49 pm

I have the Aurora mini POP! but I would love to have a regular sized one.

Postby **tinkerbell055** » Thu Jan 16, 2014 1:55 pm

Same here!
