I need some help here on this one Funko. I'm not greedy, I am just asking for one Bengals Pop!


Icky woods? Munoz?


I could see Munoz first since he is in the hall of fame. :freddy3:


Yes! Both of these should be made into Pops!

I would love an OchoCinco pop with sombrero. lol


I know the pain with Kansas City until we finally got Travis Kelce. I'm hoping for a Patrick Mahomes Funko Pop next year. Good luck.


Yes, They need to make an Ocho Cinco with a sombrero! lol He was always the best showman on the field when it came to excessive celebrations!

Same over here with Detroit sports. The Lions aren't that bad lol


I hear ya, I have a friend who she is also a Detroit Lions fan and I loved going t watch a game at Ford field and it's not like they have an entirely bad team. They have some really star quality athletes. I should know since you guys got Marvin Jones from my team the Bengals.

I miss the days of AJ Green, Mohammad Sanu and Marvin Jones together. They were a force to be reckoned with!

They could pretty much do this with the entire list of Bust from the Cleveland Browns Roster of QB's for the past 10 years.

I don't own a single NFL Pop! I've been waiting for what seems like a lifetime to get just one simple Cincinnati Bengals Pop! Apparently FUNKO doesn't think they are worthy enough of being made into Pop Fandom but I suppose that Johnny "Money" Manzile was good enough to make it. SMH [-(

I might start collecting NFL Pops if they were to start making NFL Mascots. The Mascots seem like they could be timeless pieces.

Players come and go, Unless they are Hall of Fame quality players I am not very interested in buying other team players.

I like your concept Freddy's in your signature line. I think you might be onto something with a few of those but others like the Lion-O might be a stretch along with the Zen-OH. I think the Moneybags and the Hellboy Freddy look the best out of the bunch you designed.

I agree. I can't wait for 49ers to strike gold and get back to their winning ways and get a super bowl. I was sad to see the undefeated super bowl record be gone a few years ago.

We all were, but missing 4 consecutive pass interference calls is atrocious. People are mad about the refs this year, they have cost plenty of other teams super bowls, saints fans can get in line.

I got 3 Jerry Rice pops, made customs in black jersey, and white. Go Niners.

On the pop side, less enthused.

Remaking vaulted pops? Not a good sign for the hobby. Didnt even change the mold. Got mine the 1st time, but this is a real bad sign. Wonder what they will unvault next?

Funko says they dont unvault, but these have been gone for over a year. An official announcement would help.

So I wonder if it was vaulted do to some licensing issues. I doubt this was vaulted because of demand. I remember they never really officially announced this, but it showed up on some stores or they announced it as a common but never mass release. I don't think Funko is going to unvault pops that go to the vault due to lack of sales.

The original Montana figure was never Vaulted it was recalled due to likeness issues. Looks like they fixed it and Joe approved...so this was not “unvaulted”. The older one will still hold some value.

From what I remember was due to the shoes, and it is the same mold, unless I am missing something. Dont see any difference between them. New jersey sure, that's okay. But sure seems like a rerelease, and many paid a ton for this as was pulled from stores a long time ago. But will see how many stores get them currently saw 2, and both quick sell outs. Maybe the magic warehouse stock?

Maybe the magic warehouse stock?



hoping its a full re-release, I wanted to pre-order at gamestop


We won’t find out until Funko makes an official announcement (if they even do so) or until orders are received by retailers. Either way, I’m glad this one is being mass released.

From what I remember was due to the shoes, and it is the same mold, unless I am missing something. Dont see any difference between them. New jersey sure, that's okay. But sure seems like a rerelease, and many paid a ton for this as was pulled from stores a long time ago. But will see how many stores get them currently saw 2, and both quick sell outs. Maybe the magic warehouse stock?

It already was mass released, and vaulted. This came out in October 2017, and I got mine at Gamestop. Wonder if they will start unvaulting other pops, I need a same mold Phoenix, the Thing, 480 PC comic con sets, etc. Not good sign for hobby, as dilutes the items status as a collectible.

So I doubt they will unvault other pops. I am pretty sure this was vaulted for some sort of other reason unrelated to sales. They never made and official announcement then people like yourself were getting it, and then it was just out of the blue not showing up anywhere. It wasn't an exclusive, and didn't show up on big retailers such as entertainment earth. Most of the pops that are vaulted are either due to sales or limited production run. I don't think this falls in either category, so I think this is a special case.

The original Joe Montana was not mass released, it was recalled due to likeness reasons. Yeah a few made it's way to some retailers but not all went out. So I'm pretty sure this isn't an un-vaulting...and it's pretty safe to say that those older figures and the 480 pc count con exclusives that you mentioned aren't coming back. Why would they rerelease the old mold Phoenix when there's a brand new one coming out in a few months.

It was sent out to all retailers, and they recalled them, many before they arrived. The ones that were sold were mostly pre orders. Instead of scrapping, and going with a new mold, it appears they unvaulted, and made a bunch of new ones. We will know for sure by the factory date on bottom of these. If isnt Oct 2017 or before, it's an unvaulting as a new production line.

If they remake these, why not remake all old molds for more sales? It just seems strange to remake a pop over a year after released and had vanished from stores. Again I got mine at retail, but sucks that instead of this remaining a rare item, they are rereleasing to everyone. Sucks for collectors, great for the masses. Slippery slope with this stuff. Why not make the away jersey instead, would have sold just as well, while maintaining the allure of the original.

Just a strange move and I'm sure will anger many who bought on secondary market once Funko vaulted it over a year ago. Time will tell if they keep unvaulting.

It was on EE, and Toy Wars, I preordered at Gamestop, and they cancelled. Then drove an hour to get the former GOAT from another GS. This was vaulted/cancelled, same as Jim Brown, and Nick Morton. Will depend on production date on box. If is pre Oct 17, than this the rest of the stock. If after, it's an unvault and rerelease. Just a slippery slope with this stuff as once one is unvaulted, many more to come. I say keep items vaulted and make a new mold instead. Would have been easy to make black jersey, or away instead.

Good call to check production date on the box.. I could see it both ways (stock already made then recalled..then working out license approval to re-release vs straight up unvaulting and remaking more). I have one of those Jim Browns and my friend has an original Joe Montana...we hope to compare once the new ones are released. I want to acquire a Joe!
