This line gives me all sorts of ideas...

You could do NBA all time greats too, like Jordan, Magic, Bird, etc... too cool!

What about a MLB set of Pops!

So many starts to choose from that would be great as Pops...

David Ortiz, Derek Jeter, David Wright, Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder and so on and so on...

Always uniforms would have been great chase pieces, but these all look great.

Very awesome to see them finished with a nice production pic. Thanks for the sneak peak Brian! Also, thanks for adding the "No chase pieces" bit of detail.

I'm right there with ya Cliff, love to see superstars of the past.

Also I hope this opens the door for other sports. Basketball just ain't my thing.

yeah, relieved to see no chases, especially given the possibilties of uniform colors and stuff... just hope this doesn't turn into a mcfarlane thing, where certain pops are only available at the NBA All-Star Jam Session. that would be a pain...

I think throwback jerseys would have been a great idea for chases....looking forward to the tentative NBA legends line.

Unmarked chases with the away uniforms would be cool. That way you'd have to know a bit about basketball to catch on....or be a member of a Funko fan page

I of course will be picking these all up (I ordered my case a while ago), even though I wasn't to crazy about these, I am a huge sports fan, and well I love my pop so it just makes sense, I am just not so excited about this series only because they all look so similar, I kinda like the ideas of specific Rock, and super heroes that are very distinct when you look at them. A nice touch would have been a minor size difference, Durant and Gasol being the same size as Lin is just odd to me lol

i agree about the sculpts. they could have had at least a few players in action poses, or something (like a lebron james chalk toss). but i'm hoping these aren't really FINAL final. some guys are missing their tats, and that paint touch could really add some much needed character to the bodies.
