I was never a fan of the Titan minis. Just couldnt bring myself to displaying them with my Funko POPs. I think it was the faces.


Much like Pops they aren't everyone's cup of tea. I have a lot of them, they started coming out before Funko had made any Doctor Who pops. The Kawaii style ones are my favorite. I need to finish that set.

If rumors can be believed, the Doctor Who line is not dead after all. Maybe I can finally get my Seventh Doctor…
Please Funko make Taylor Swift Pops!

Rumors about about a new pop, however I reaaaallly think we need AT LEAST all of the doctors.
2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, Fugitive. And then we'll need the one after the rumored one, of course.

Still hoping for more companions as well of course, and more aliens/creatures. I'd love to expand my DW pop collection!!

Donna Noble won’t happen unless Catherine Tate has changed her stance on merchandise. I remember in the days when I collected Doctor Who action figures, she would only approve one figure and it was Donna in a giant coat. I think she just doesn’t like the idea.

But I also hold out hope that we will complete the Doctors at least. If we count the Fugitive Doctor, we still need eight!

Ah man, I didn't know that about Catherine, that said I still want others before her anyway, like Martha, Strax, Jenny, Madame Vastra, Wilf, Amy in her future sword wielding version, Rory in regular clothes and more. Would have loved a Donna with the bug on her back, one of my favorite episodes of her, since overall the first run I didn't care for her much, although I've come to really appreciate her after a second viewing and these specials.

I'd LOVE for all of the Doctors, even if it were just one version of each, instead of the multiple variants. We still need 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, Fugitive, 14 and now 15. Still bummed I was never able to get 13 in her long coat and 12 in his space suit...so I'll likely always be incomplete, sadly.

Wouldn't mind some more creatures too, but I won't list all of those, :D

I also want to add I'm pretty disappointed in the 3 specials being the 60th anniversary deal, since there really wasn't anything that special about it except David and Donna coming back. Was great to see Wilf, albeit too briefly for sad reasons, Donna's mom and Kate from UNIT. I didn't know Mel because I haven't been able to watch the old shows, but at least someone from the past was there I guess, just overall quite as exciting as the 50th anniversary.


More pops please, Funko, we love you! :D

I adore the new wave already, especially 12 with the guitar and 11/Mr. Clever... however, I'm still disappointed that there isn't Amy. Rory and most of all Clara.

Turns out the second wave did so poorly that the line may end.

I feel like that It's not that Doctor Who isn't a popular line..

*EDIT. FUNKO HAS GIVEN US EXCLUSIVES: Roman Rory, 8th Season Clara, Kissagram Amy....(THEY HAVE ALL SOLD OUT)

NOW PLEASE MORE COMPANIONS AND OTHER CHARACTERS [-o< [-o< [-o<

1. DONNA NOBLE!**
2. CLARA (WAITRESS OUTFIT!!!) PLEASE!!!!**
3. Regular clothes Amy/Rory 2 pack
4. Ood
5. Velvet Coat/ Burgundy Coat 12th Doctor

PLEASE MAKE ANOTHER WAVE FUNKO!!!!!!


I feel like Doctor Who is a cool comic con line, if they released 1 every convention or so would be awesome.

One a con would kill me. We need a new wave of old Doctors we don't have yet, then some newer characters like Fugitive, 14 and 15(with pants). Still need other companions and creatures too. Dangit.

I remember when the Scott Pilgrim line had limited Pops for every single con. I wanted to collect the line but was priced out immediately. For DW, if the con drops aren't limited and we did get one per show, it would still be four a year so we would be ok.

I also still really want Freddy Funko as the 12th Doctor with his guitar. The Freddy as the 4th Doctor is my personal grail, but I will never be able to afford it.
Please Funko make Taylor Swift Pops!

I just recently found out about the Freddy as the 4th Doctor. Having Freddy portray each of the Doctors would be so cool!

I would hope with the new season and all the Funko Dr Who fans, there would be a new wave soon. Specially with their deal with Disney carrying it. If that is not enough, time to campaign to Funko to release more, lol.

Is there an official venue we are able to send feed to funko? I remember back in the day most companies had a customer feed line. Not customer service but q line soley for request and suggestions.

Heard that before. Specially with all the classic seasons being hard to see. Wacthing them now on Tubi. So fingers crossed with Disney+ and licensing.

You can't. The show runners destroyed it by prioritizing political agenda and messages over quality writing.

I've seen it all to often the last 3-5 years. Netflix took the Witcher...whose source material is as progressive as it can be, and made it insufferable by ignoring the source material. So dumb.

Now I know all the Witcher Funko lines will die out because they basically destroyed the series and IP. :(

If I’m not mistaken, there was supposed to be a 14th Dr for NYCC 23, but for some reason it never materialized.

Here’s hoping there is a return of the line
