More X-MEN Pop!s please!

I’m so happy that Gambit and Rogue are coming out. Now all we need are the rest of the ones. Start with the ones from the 90s cartoons!

Postby **Jezter** » Wed Jan 22, 2020 6:41 am

Now that we have Gambit, and besides needing a ton of others, I hope we get the 90s version of Bishop, so he can get in Gambit's face and accuse of being a traitor. Just sayin'

Now if we could get Jubilee and a 6" or 10" Sentinel!! that would be Great!!
oh and Mr Sinister!!!

So glad Rogue and Gambit are FINALLY getting made! They look so awesome! Now if we could only get Nightcrawler & Jubilee, and Dazzler in her Disco outfit, along with an exclusive of her in her Pryde of the X-Men/X-Men Arcade game outfit with the blue body suit and brown leather jacket with the headband!!! Yaaaassss!

2 down tons to go!

Postby **JohnnyPOP** » Wed Jan 22, 2020 10:28 am

I really hope we get some updated ones soon too. All of the new ones make the others look bad lol

I really want an Astonishing Cyclops because that's one of my favorite suits of his. Plus I'd like to get my hands on a Beast Pop since I missed out on him. Other than that, I want a lot of new characters. My wishlist is long.

Really hope they get some more X-men POP!'s in the works now that Gambit and Rogue have been announced.

But where is Jubilee!!?? Wronged in the movies, let's make up for it by giving her a pop

It is SO GREAT to finally see Gambit and Rogue are coming out! Feels like I've wanted them forever!

Stoked for a Gambit pop! Maybe it'll generate some more hype for the character and that movie will keep getting made <_<;

Gambit & Rogue look amazing. My husband has been wanting those two for YEARS.

yup maybe glow in the dark.

I really have been campaigning for a glow in the dark variant for gambit because it just seems appropriate - I’m sure funko has gambit in the pipeline he is easily one of the most popular mutants

prayers have been answered lol

Damn your wish just came true at London toy fair reveal. He looks so good!

yup I wish we had gotten 2 different gambits just like we have 2 different rogues. one holding cards the other throwing.

I pre-ordered the GitD Gambit, but now I am wondering if the regular one will be better. Funky has really upped their game on translucent parts lately, but it seems like the process of making them GitD is still about covering them in that gritty paint. I really noticed this on the Ben Hargreeves from Umbrella Academy. On the common, his "tentacles" are a crystal clear blue, but on the GitD, they are cloudy. Still not sure which one I like better, even though I bought the GitD exclusive just in case it sold out. I'm worried that this same effect will obscure the cards Gambit is throwing.

That’s for sure. Super happy with the outcome of Gambit and can’t wait to have it in hand.

I feel like the Disney Fox merger had a lot to do with it. Since Disney and Funko have a good relationship, maybe making the Pops made it easier?

Glad that we finally have gambit and rogue !!

I'm glad they didn't do Gambit and Rogue as a two-pack as had been rumored. I won't have to get Gambit to get Rogue.

A lot? It was everything. The lack of FF and X-Men merch was because Marvel was trying to pressure Fox into selling those rights back.

My only fear now is when a new X-Men movie is made, the amount of pops that may come out, like the Avengers pops. Ugh. I just want 90s versions of the pops, but I don't know if I'll be able to resist movie versions if they are good. 8-[

It has nothing to do with the merger as that's Marvel Studios. This is Marvel IP as in the comic books, look and feel.

not true friend, Disney were being giant babies and not only refusing to promote but flat out destroying X-Men, Fantastic Four and the other Fox-Movie franchises within the comic world and all but refusing to allow the majority of the characters to be made in most any form of merch because they "didn't want to promote another studios movies" even if it meant killing some of their most popular and important comic characters. Sadly Deadpool in all his annoying blandness seemed the only character immune to this fate :rolleyes:

it is no coincidence that we didn't get the FF and were getting very little X-Men until after the Fox acquisition.

super excited for these,grabbed multiples, now i just need a jubilee and then they can start on the rest of the 90s series,and now im humming the theme song

It wasn’t even really Disney proper, but Marvel Entertainment under Ike Perlmutter. It’s been restructured recently so that Kevin Feige is in charge of creative and story content at Marvel Entertainment.

So glad to see this announcement today...! Such perfect molds for them, too! Honestly, Gambit had to have a GITD version, and Rogue 100% had to be flying...!

I was actually telling someone else this earlier, now that I've seen the designs, I don't mind having had to wait this long because they're so detailed and so perfect. Comparing some of my earlier pops to my newer versions of them, the newer ones are more detailed. I'm so happy with how these turned out!!

Now that I've got my preorder for Gambit in, I looked more closely at the pop - you're right, the details on this are amazing! Just what they did with his cards alone would've made this pop worth it, but for it also to be GITD? Can't wait for these!

Postby **fbingha** » Fri Jan 24, 2020 2:47 am

I will probably buy Rogue but I have disliked Gambit from the moment he first appeared in Uncanny X-Men #266.

I love how they did his powers, how you can still see the cards through them, and of course the glow is an awesome bonus!

Now we need a release date for flying Rogue so I can be ready! I've been a bit absent minded lately about when certain pops drop and I want to put it in my phone's calendar to remind me this time

There is still a chance. Remember that there is ECCC and SDCC as well as NYCC coming up this year - these all present opportunities for variants

Ugh. I have friends that collected way earlier than me. I get that their fans of the simple molds but you can’t deny that they did justice with these new ones. So much love put into it

The details on the pops just get better and better as we go! I'm glad they've gotten to this point, where we have so many beautifully done figures!

I initially only wanted Rogue as well, but when I saw how cool Gambit was, I caved and bought him too. I'm glad they're separate packaging though, I think a 2-pack wouldn't have been nearly as nice looking!
