The Simpsons...

Great to see them coming back to this line, I agree.

Postby **Furnicus** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 3:54 pm

it'll definitely be cool to come back with this line but with the new design team it won't bring back the same nostalgia for me.

Postby **Jtpeter65** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 5:24 pm

I'll keep watching the prices for the first wave and see.

I was able to pre-order some Simpsons pops at EB Games today. Does this mean it's official, no it doesn't. But it's one step closer to a chance of new ones. Hoping for an official announcement during Toy Fair.

I’m praying for NY Toy Fair.

Funko hasn’t been releasing a lot of stuff I’m interested in lately and it kinda leaves me no choice but to fade away and be a fan from the outside looking in.

This would be a line I’d love and it would make me buy a pop again!

I'm gonna wanna be a completionist and get the OG set too!

Excited about the new wave! They could literally make so many! Which ones would you guys like to see get made?

Bartman is coming which is awesome but where the Duff man? :freddy3:

I wonder if there’s going to be an Apu, I would buy that one.

Heard he was supposed to be a 7/11 exclusive this year. Probably won't happen though since he got cut from the show.

Postby **MacKazoo** » Thu Feb 21, 2019 6:05 pm

I don’t think a 7-Eleven exclusive would be a good call, I just want him to be a common.

Yeah ^^^ you right, most likely won’t ever happen

Postby **MacKazoo** » Fri Feb 22, 2019 10:28 am

I could see a common working, but not a 7-Eleven exclusive, that probably raise some controversy.

As much as this is funny and understandable to be tied to 7/11 I think it would shine a negative light on Funko. :freddy3:

I agree, so I was thinking more he should be a common because 7-Eleven exclusives are hard for me to get.

Hopefully the rumors of the starting of treehouse line are true. I really want this line to be as big as dragon ball z with a release every now and then, more sooner than later.
Would love to see

Hans Moleman
Homer with popcorn
Homer holding duff can and remote
Radioactive Homer/Glow in the dark variant also
Evil Homer
Donut head Homer
Bart as Cupcake Kid
Bart holding Slingshot
Lisa as hippie
Duffman
Ralph Wiggum
Matt Groening as a Simpsons character

because people are getting stupider as we age, nobody gave a crap a few years back when actual 7-11's were converted into Kwik-e-marts

Not sure if the Simpsons is still popular enough to produce large enough sales to become as large as the DBZ line.

Postby **rontonsoup** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 5:20 am

I just saw the glams. We need Itchy and Scratchy. Can we also get a 10” Homer or Bart?

Postby **d00dz** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 5:26 am

I would love the treehouse of horror rumors to be true! Those are among my favorite episodes!

Postby **Tusken** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 7:45 am

I can't wait for Bartman. :freddy3:

Eh, I think so. Simpson’s has a bigger cultural impact than the dragon ball z, and we’ve haven’t had Pops of this line since the early days of pops. The potential for this line is huge, we just have to wait till these guys come out.

Postby **rexflexall** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 10:42 am

Gonna be a lot of Pops!

Postby **willy wonka** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 11:23 am

I am still debating if I want these or not. This could turn Ugly...

The cultural impact of the show is much larger than DBZ for sure, but people aren't hyped up for the new line as much as almost every DBZ announcement now.

I'm sure Funko will extend the line in the future, but seeing as how not everyone is tuning to the show like in the past I have doubts that Funko is going to expand the line like crazy. Probably only a select few characters and some variants.

Imo, the age of Simpsons collectibles ended when the World of Springfield line ended (which is the better Simpsons collectibles line since they're more show accurate).

Postby **Bezo33** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 1:01 pm

I'll be stoked if the open this line up!

Postby **Vises35** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 3:33 pm

Just take my money Funko lol

I have avoided big sets like Stranger Things, GoT, Dragon Ball Z,The Walking Dead, etc. but this is my all-time favorite show so I need these to happen, gotta collect them all lol

Postby **pberickp** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 4:22 pm

Getting excited for these to drop. I keep looking at the originals on eBay, but they are a little out of my reach. Maybe grab Homer one day, but it would be amazing (and expensive) to have all four originals to pair with the new ones.

maybe a specialty quik e mart? lol

jk.. if it were an exclusive though, 7-eleven would make the most sense imo

Does Funko have any partnership with Universal Studios? What there was a special Universal Studios release (since they have a mini simpsons land?)

Universal Studios in Florida had an exclusive Deadpool Dorbz so it could be possible.

I'm so happy that they are revisiting the Simpsons - I can't wait to see all the new Simpsons that come out!

Why would I? It's not the giant it used to be anymore. Other shows are more a lot more popular than the current iteration.

The massive legacy of the show still remains, but it's just not that popular anymore unlike DBZ.
