Ad icons wish list

Postby **digithor** » Thu Jun 20, 2019 4:37 pm

They will come out as pops in time like others have said, just wait it out.

I don’t get when you mean when you say this like started out being pops...

They’ve been making Ad Icons since Wacky Wobblers. And guess what the first Wacky Wobbler was... an ad icon.

Just saying that this line is what got me into Funko and I’ve been collecting them since they started making the pop line.

This. I was just about to say that ad icons didn’t start with Pops. Wacky Wobblers, Blox, Funko Force came out long before, so if anything, Pops were just the beginning of a long line of ad icons straying from their original form. In my honest opinion any and all of these characters, not just icons, never should’ve been made in Pop form. Cheapens the history of Funko.

But I’m sure I’ll be called old and curmudgeonly. So be it.

Before that, literally 2017, Ad Icons were either impossible to find (the OG Monster Cereal mascots) or exclusive to the Funko Shop. Remember that.

Now that Funko has tested the waters to see if Ad Icons would be popular on an actual sales floor with average customers (spoilers: they are very popular), they're just expanding the line to their other figures. Remember, Funko isn't just a Pop factory. They want to expand beyond that, and for the time being, Ad Icons might be the safest way to draw other people to their other figures.

I PROMISE you that Quake, Quisp, etc will all come out at Ad Icons Pops one day. These are con exclusives. Maybe Brian knows that the Pop versions will sell well without being limited edition, which the VYNLs might not?

I agree 100%.
Funko has other lines and it makes sense to bring the success of Ad Icons to those lines as well. I loved the Rice Crispy Dorbz collection and I think the VYNLs are a nice change of pace. I can't see them not making Pop versions one day as well.

I'm actually excited to see Funko Expand the Icons to other lines, I ate up the Rice Krispy Dorbz, and already preordered the Mystery Minis! Seeing more Vynl and 5 star is great, as long as the pieces keep selling I see them continuing to track down licenses for more mascots and bringing them to Funko in many different forms!

Definitely! so many flavors they can mess with. Seems like a easy variant and it is but you know Funko is all about that if you look at the Otter Pops, Peeps, Sour Patch, etc...

Nope. Still some not revealed yet.

Red Glow Kool Aid Man would be dope.

Still waiting on the tootsie pop owl (I know they revealed the mystery mini but we need the POP!). Also Charlie the Tuna from the Starkist Tuna adds. They made a wobbler version of Charlie the Tuna so I would assume they could make it into a POP!
