More Star Wars Phantom Menace Pop!s?

Postby **popmad2016** » Fri Nov 25, 2016 9:15 am

OK! Now that I have bought Anakin, Darth Maul, Holographic Emperor and Plo Koon I'm hungry for more Episode 1 Phantom Menace Pop!s...

I may be a little biased as to date, this is the only Star Wars movie I've actually seen at the cinema (don't get me wrong LOVE the original trilogy just never got around to seeing any others on the big screen...yet), but upon evaluation I do personally feel it is the highlight of the prequel trilogy (I do feel that Hayden Christensen was the worst thing to ever happen to Star Wars) and feels the most like an authentic Star Wars movie (even with the over-use of CGI)...

My top 10 wants now (aside from vault re:issues or variants of JarJar, Qui Gon Jinn and Queen Amidala) are:
- Mace Windu (actually borderline NEED this guy!)
- Nute Gunray
- Boss Nass
- Watto
- Ki-Adi-Mundi
- Saesee Tiin
- Sebulba
- Fode and Beed (two-headed Podrace announcers)
- Obi-Wan Kenobi
- Twi'lek Slave

Anyone else want more Phantom Menace Pop!s? And what characters would you like to see released from the film?

Personally I'm not a huge fan of TPM but i would love more Prequel Trilogy POPs.

A new Padmé, Young Obi-Wan and Mace Windu would be great additions to the line

TPM is my least favorite Star Wars movie, so there isn't a whole lot I would want from it, but Mace Windu needs to be made. I've always liked the design of Gasgano, but I don't think he would work as a Pop. I'm actually very fond of Eps. 2 and 3, so there are a lot more Pops I'd like to see for those movies. Hayden had his problems, but I wouldn't call him the worst thing to happen to Star Wars. My top 2 prequel wants would probably be Padmé in her Geonosis outfit, and Aayla Secura. I'd also like to see RotS Obi-Wan and Anakin.

Im down for middle aged Kenobi with the beard. <3

For Phantom Menace, I want reissues/variants of Qui-Gon and Jar-Jar. We need Padme in her Tatooine costume, Padawan Obi-Wan, Watto, Sebulba, C-3PO with his parts showing, Boss Nass, a Battle Droid, and as many of Amidala's costumes and the other podracers as they feel like giving us.

Save Mace Windu & the other Jedi for an Attack of the Clones or Clone Wars series so they actually get to do something. :-)

I would like to see a Young Anakin variant with pod racer helmet, young obi-wan kenobi, hooded darth maul variant, Meditation Qui-Gon, droidekas, shielded droideka variant and many other droid variants, maybe even a droid tank ride! Oooo the possibilities gives me goosebumps, i really hope Funko pursues some of these ideas.

Postby **racheva** » Fri Nov 25, 2016 7:51 pm

Just please, no more Jar Jar. It hurt to have to spend 50 bucks on that awful character to be a completist.

I'd like younger Obi-Wan and of course Mace Windu. I'm kinda surprised Sam Jackson hasn't insisted on it by now.

I like the way you think!

I would love to see a young Obiwan, droideka, Mace Windu, Viceroy Gunray, Senator Palpatine,or a sliced in half Darthmaul with magnets :cheers:

just....no

Postby **JoshChaos** » Sat Nov 26, 2016 1:36 am

Mace Windu MUST happen.

Postby **bryan_sato54** » Sat Nov 26, 2016 3:43 am

i would love to have a mace windu, revenge of the sith anakin pop or attack of the clones anakin with a dual lightsaber

Postby **JBiz** » Sat Nov 26, 2016 4:51 pm

Nope. I avoid prequel pops, except for Darth Maul. He's just cool looking so I bent on that.

Nah nah on jar jar

I know I'm late to the party but it's a good thing they seem to be focusing on Prequel ones lately. I'm sure it won't be long before Mace is released.

Yeah i can't wait for Mace and young Obi Wan. I would also love a mid flight Jango Fett. Oh and by the way awesome GIF!

Thanks mate very kind! Good point on Jango Fett too. I think it's stupid how they've made beloved characters so hard to get. General Greivous. Qui Gon. Jango Fett. It's insane!

Young Obi Wan will be an instant best seller. I know multiple people who aren't even pop fans regularly who have told me they want one! It's pretty crazy that we have 2 original trilogy pops of him, but none from the prequels.

And the fact that there's no Mace Windu pop is still a mystery to me. I would think Sam Jackson would have demanded one by now

Postby **HarryG5O** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 12:33 pm

I know many fans like to think the Prequels don't exist, but the amount of awesome looking characters there could be means that we need some! Even a Battle Droid or something....although I don't know how they'd do that.

Personally I have a major disliking for the prequels for far too many reasons to list. That being said I would like Mace Windu and an Ewan McGregor Obi-Wan. Anything else... Well let's just say there are plenty of classic Star Wars figures I'd rather see made first.

They just make it look like a battle droid. The Doctor Who Dalek, is well, just a Dalek, no Pop Vinylness to it at all.

I'd be so down for any new Maul Variant. Maybe one similar to the well walker if you know what Im saying...... :compress:

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 6:14 pm

A Mace Windu is definitely needed.

Postby **Malion** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 7:08 pm

I think Nute Gunray would make a good pop.

Postby **ThePhantomFunko** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 7:15 pm

I'm all for PT Star Wars POP's, especially of characters such as Mace Windu, Count Dooku, bearded Obi-Wan, and some of the lesser known characters and random Jedi.But what I really want an attainable, and affordable, Qui-Gon and it angers me that the one they made is an impossible to get rare POP that fetches ridiculous collectors prices online. I don't mind shelling out $50-$70 on a rare POP, but some of these figures going for hundreds of dollars is just insane. Especially for a character that should be readily available due to being a core character in The Phantom Menace. Hopefully they'll re-release Qui-Gon someday or give us an alternate sculpt or color scheme, but yeah.....Funko really needs to get this done. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing a Darth Maul with his hood/robes on, that would be pretty badass if you ask me.

These are the two I want! I could see maybe a few others, but I generally have to agree that the movies suck too much to care about most of the characters. If Funko makes me buy a Hayden Christensen Anakin...

...you know they will ](*,)

A young Jedi Anakin would be awesome! Don't know what you guys mean! XD

Actually, I'm hoping for a Hayden Christensen, hooded Darth Vader or a Obi-Wan vs Darth Vader battle on Mustafar 2-pack.

Ugh but Hayden tho. If the make a full grown Anakin, he has to be hooded or scarred up. None of that adolescent teen beat nonsense from episode 2.

Agreed.

Postby **ThePhantomFunko** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 3:48 pm

Agreed on wanting an Episode III Anakin Skywalker POP. If they could give him the hood and make his eye gleam red than all the better.

I have the young Anakin from Episode I and would absolutely adore an Episode III Anakin, but I would be lying to say that I wouldn't buy an Episode II Anakin weilding two lightsabers.

Postby **HarryG5O** » Wed Jan 04, 2017 4:30 pm

To be honest I don't get why they did an Episode 1 Ani before a Jedi Knight Ani....makes 0 sense to me. lol

I still stand by, it was more the bad writing than it was Hayden. The love story between him and Padme should have contained a lot less "cheese".

There are so many more Star Wars pops that I would love to see. I just hope my wallet can handle everything I would want to buy lol

Postby **ScarletFunko** » Fri Jan 06, 2017 7:46 pm

I'd love Apprentice and Jedi Ani. Same goes for obi! Would have loved QG but.......seriously though, more PT pops would be awesome

Postby **pop_jumper** » Sat Jan 07, 2017 4:20 pm

Being part of the generation that grew up with the prequel trilogy, I'd gobble up any and all prequel and Clone Wars pops.

Especially Phantom Menace, since it was the first Star Wars movie I'd ever seen when I was 3 years old. I love everybody's ideas so far.

Postby **HarryG5O** » Sat Jan 07, 2017 6:40 pm

How about a one armed Anakin from the Dooku fight?

Who is online
