Oh boy, the options for these absolute masterpiece films are endless. Some easy mascots to start off with would be liked a flocked Totoro or something. :cat:

So who thinks it would be a good idea to a have Studio Ghibli line of POP! and if so which Studio Ghibli Film do you think they should start with? Any specific characters that you guys would want first?

I would personally love a Totoro pop!

Flocked 10 inch Totoro would be a welcomed addition to my collection. Suprised these aren’t a thing already

Yes a Totoro pop would be amazing.

With the fanbase for that art, I bet it would kill.

I remember I ordered a 6-inch Boxlunch exclusive Maleficent and the box had the code name "xspirited away haku 6 in glo mt". Biggest tease of all time! Make these happen Funko!

It such a work of art.
I can only imagine they are super strict and picky on the licensing.
If it ever does happen. I am so on board and collecting!

Licensing would be tough

Yes, I think getting a licensing would be tough. Especially since the company sells a lot of merchandise at their stores, museum, and theme parks.

But can you guys imagine what a Funko Pop Moment or even a deluxe would look like for this line? Studio Ghibli has such vibrant and memorable character design & there’s so many iconic scenes that I think it would mesh flawlessly with the Funko POP aesthetic

A studio ghibli funko moment itd be amazing.

Man that would be a phenomenal pop ride. I feel like they would have amazing pop rides galore

Howls castle as a pop ride definitely would be a hit

Postby **digithor** » Wed Mar 20, 2024 1:51 am

That could be an interesting one in pop form.

Postby **zonkttc** » Wed Mar 20, 2024 8:04 am

Thinking About it alot of these pops can be gitd or flocked. An exclusive design. Nice to think of.

Oh most definitely. So many different characters that would look exceptional with that Funko aesthetic and with the glow. This line could legit be filled with superior pop moments. There’s just so many different characters that would look awesome as pops

Postby **sxrgio115** » Mon Mar 25, 2024 4:04 pm

We need to collectively show that we want it in order to see if Funko can make it haha

Postby **Grogu** » Mon Mar 25, 2024 5:27 pm

Kiki's Delivery service! That was my first Ghibli film so it has a special place in my heart. Maybe Kiki with Jiji together as a POP.

Kiki's delivery service was my first too! I would be so excited if they got the licensing and made them $\:D/$

Postby **KingKag3** » Tue Mar 26, 2024 9:56 pm

The craziness that will come with this line without a doubt. Flocked Totoro, kiki rides, spirited away, howls moving castle. OMG

Postby **Nooklin** » Thu Mar 28, 2024 5:04 am

Been asking for this for years, but I know there are licensing issues.

That's too logical for Funko. They'll make a metallic Jiji first lol
