BTS Music Group

Postby kenjidm » Fri May 25, 2018 2:28 am

Just curious and not sure if there are even fans on this forum of theirs but does anyone think Funko would consider making a BTS group pop? Not only since the craze is here in the states but also could market themselves globally in Korea and other Asia countries where they are a big hit.. just curious

I haven't listened to K*Pop since early college but I did notice them getting popular recently. I'm not a fan but I know who they are. I think they could consider it. I mean they made Miku pop and the other vocaloids under the Pop Rocks line. Whether they make it would have to do with who is in charge of their merchandise/licensing.

There's a K-pop thread already in this section. There's definitely interest in BTS. I'd get a Jin and V.

I’m really excited for these!!! Unfortunately, I had trouble recognizing 5 out of 7 of the members (´∀`*) hopefully they’ll release them singly, cause I only really wanted Jungkook (red hair, blue jacket)

I listen to K-Pop irregularly, but BTS is one of the groups I'll play. Cannot tell you a title of any song but I enjoy the music. Seeing these makes me want BigBang and 2NE1 Pops though.

Ah, I get that. If I can recommend some groups: Got7 and seventeen. Seems like you got a decent pool already if you know bigbang and 2NE1

I'll throw them in there! lol I'd also really like Black Pink to get the Pop treatment too but I honestly don't know how well any of them would do. I like a lot of different groups though. EXO (give me a PCY Pop!), VIXX, SHINee, Girl's Generation, Red Velvet (another fun group for Pops!) I like VROMANCE and EXID. ANDA. 2PM. Winner. I guess I know more than I thought.

I actually recognize most of these groups! But thanks lol I love listening to K-Pop.

They're super popular here too. Maybe not to the same degree, but at both of my bookstore jobs, people asked for BTS books the most in the last year or two. I see merch for them everywhere.

I think they are popular world wide. In the States they were just on the Grammy's, America's music awards.

Thanks! I kinda like the way it looks with 3 on top. I may like that better than the 6 pack look.

I have heard the name before but I have never listened to them. I am sure it will be a hit in Asia but don't count the states out. Their movie here in Houston sells out still in the theaters.
Would you believe I just found the signature block? My name is Kimberly check out my foodagram @imonehungrynerd or nerdy stuff @thenerdelement

So this is looking like it'll cost $70? Somehow, I don't think they will have a hard time selling, even at that price point.

I'm trying not to want this set since I only really learned more about them earlier this month when Mattel announced they were making dolls and I'm waiting to see how those look. I do like the poses Funko created as it makes me think of what I've seen in BTS music videos.

Yep. All of the B&N’s around me have a BTS endcap, all the Hot Topics have a section devoted to the toy merch line, and Target has exclusive album sets. They are pretty mainstream in the US at this point.
