NCAA Mascot Pops

I would love to see Big Al become a pop.

Any official announcement yet?

Would love to see a University of Washington Husky that looks like their real life mascot, Dubs II

So Lou Seal could only be purchased at Giants games and the Pirate Parrot could only be purchased at Pirates games and so forth. it would lead to a lot of people connecting to trade to try to get the whole set and it'd be a lot of fun while also not being mega limited so price could stay low. I would love to get a Pirate Parrot as I am a MASSIVE pirates fan!

I actually think this is a really cool idea. Even though I’m no where near any of my teams, it would be cool to talk to a Funko Fan who liked the same sports team as me and get help!

Is this an area Funko has interest in exploring? It seems that college mascot Pops could probably sell well. Licensing hurdles aside, I think the following would be a good lineup:

Rameses - North Carolina
Tommy Trojan - Southern California
Oregon Duck - Oregon
Big Al - Alabama
Albert - Florida

Any others?

i think all major colleges would be a nice move if they can lock it. students, alumnis and staff on top of the actual local sports fans i could see buying them up

Being in the medical field. The phrase "bear down" is quite interesting.

Lol I love that last choice. To add on to the Texas Rivalry, Texas-Texas A&M. Though they rarely play each other now, that would be an amazing one.

I’m assuming it would be a Bevo and Reveille 2-pack?

The U! University of Miami. Sebastian the Ibis.

When are they releasing!?!?

Really loving the rivalry two pack idea, Maybe even VYNL for this set.

Yes! Good to see a collector from Tucson!

This would be pretty cool to do

I know this for NCAA pops, but I hope they do a NBA mascot line

i hadn't even thought about NBA mascots tbh...funko would have alot of solid characters to play with...like the ncaa mascots, they could do area/stadium exclusives!

Seems like EA is reconsidering the NCAA video game franchise. It would only make sense to have a Pop go along with purchase, right? lol

I think it'd be a great match and collaboration.

Running Reb UNLV, Devil From ASU, Wild Cat from UofA

I really hope these come out soon, maybe around the college football season.

I really believe college mascot Pops would be bigger sellers than any major league sport team mascot

They did recently release a lot of them, that was neat but I haven't been able to find the ones I want on the east coast.

It wouldn't take much for a university to order them in their bookstore. I would easily think they would blow through them. Also, I can guarantee that most Division I schools would sell through them.

Sometimes the smaller schools can be even more passionate about their teams. I think this is a huge untapped market Funko is most likely desperately working on this. Couldn’t see how they wouldn’t be

love mascot pops cause each team mascot have distinguish details

Postby **capnchulo** » Tue Jul 02, 2019 9:37 am

I thought I saw a leaked inventory screen shot with 6 or 7 NCAA mascots coming soon.

Where might I go to see this???
Would love to know if one is my team lol

I have mixed feelings about the NCAA & the way they make their money, how they treat their athletes etc...love some of the schools & teams the organization not so much...
