Haha. All that corporate greed. It sucks that The Deep is such a tool because that would be the super power I wanted. And someone totally made a custom Pop! of A-Train for the show. =oP

Caught that A Train POP as well! That was DOPE

Watched the first 2 episodes and so far so good. Loved seeing a different take and how corporate greed impacts these heroes. Not any different than working at a large corporation.

At least make the pop in the show, but all would be cool!!

By the way, I love the show and I would love to get a series of these pops. I really hope they make them.

That's so cool! Does the show stay close to the source material?

I just binged watch it and I thought it was excellent. I can definitely see The Seven re created as pops and the boys as pops.

With how much money amazon put into this show it seemed like a missed opportunity to get a quick funko pop that could’ve also been an SDCC exclusive but maybe that’s just me wanting two of my current favorite things to join forces haha

That part made me chuckle. I was like oh cute, someone did a custom. I'm surprised Amazon didn't reach out real quick because I'm sure Funko would have made it - could have been a limited edition exclusive for the offsite or something.

As much as I enjoyed the show I would definitely be pick about what pops I want. I would probably get The Deep, Black Noir (let's be honest, he's the best), Starlight, and Frenchie. I would definitely not get a pop of Homelander or Translucent lol

Postby **Rantt** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 9:57 am

I find it too short! Only 8 episode! But it's nice!

What about a bloody Translucent?

I managed to meet the cast on my plane ride back from SDCC, they were all really cool, and they filmed it locally, so this is DEFINITELY on my watch list !

I wouldn't buy it - I don't really care about the character.

It's gonna be a sweet set if it happens!

100% Agree so many good design options here! Also unless I am remembering wrong I could've swore there was a Pop! figure in Hughies room, so cross marketing seems to already be in place! Love this show and would definitely buy all the Pops!

I'm only 5 episodes in but one of my favorite scenes is when

Spoiler: show

. I would love pops of Starlight, and a chase could be of Annie January, Frenchie, Hughie, Hughie's Dad (we need more Simon Pegg pops) and Mother's Milk.

I’ve seen trailers...you guys think automatically this show already should have Pops? Just curious. I think the characters look super cool but I want to see what you guys think.

I will be watching it this week, just not today, because today sucks, but maybe I'll start tomorrow, looks solid.

Postby **angrynate** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 1:41 pm

Huge fan of the comics and gonna get started on the show this week. Would also love to see some pops made from this series!

Postby **Mario Wario** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 1:53 pm

Homelander and Starlight, that’s all I want.

Or put nothing in the box and just state that the Pop is see-through. Hehe!

Postby **FlpnGino** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 2:33 pm

Bloody Translucent pop?
Light up Starlight pop?
Yes, please!

Hahaha i just saw that episode this weekend, and said I wonder if any of my fellow funatics saw that!

Postby **w00tw00t** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 4:43 pm

I love the first episode and I thought it would be more on the lines of guys getting screwed by heroes and finding ways to kill them. I'm 4 episode in and not feeling it as much as I wanted to. Hope it gets better but based off what my friend tells me I should stop now. ={

Postby **Buffalow32** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 5:50 pm

there was enough blood to give each pop a bloody variant lol

I dunno if it's the color scheme but Homelander looks like all might. Please don't kill me lol

I have mixed feelings about this show - little too much shock factory for me (unnecessary guts) LOL - My husband and a Co worker love it though.

For those of you with little kids..... don't watch this with them in the room LOL

Postby **KidMarvel** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 6:58 pm

Aww man, this thread has got me craving for the weekend to come so I can start on this show!

Postby **MONSTER** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 7:22 pm

3 episodes in now and I definitely want pops now.

The sex and violence shock factor is toned down a lot from the comic.

Great take on super heroes and how it can go south real fast . Definitely down for a pop set . Starlight’s second suit can be the chase. Lol

Postby **pberickp** » Mon Jul 29, 2019 9:21 pm

Need to start watching this. I saw the trailer and it looks really good. The reviews I've seen have all been positive as well. Problem is my wife is not that into it so I need to watch it late after she goes to bed.
