Electronic Vader
I'm excited about the electronic Vader announced this morning. Lights *and* sounds! I've liked the lightup Iron Man and Mysterio so far, so it's cool to see the next step with sound added.

Re: Electronic Vader
I made a post about talking pops and the majority of ppl flipped out . Curious to see how this Vader is viewed by everyone, I think it's cool.

Part of what I love about Funko is they're all about trying to capture that feeling we had as kids. Adding a light was awesome, adding some sound effects is the next logical step.

I also think its pretty cool. If it takes off it could really help Funko differentiate pops instead of just chroming everything.

Like any company, if you don't evolve, it's the start of the end. I applaud Funko for this! Same goes for the new products on deck, all new and bold ideas.

They need a talking Jaba with his laugh, so iconic. Definitely love the sound and light Pops over the last year.

Re: Electronic Vader
Wonder what kind of sounds we're talking about! Love how this brings me back to childhood days when having an action figure that could light up or emit sounds was cool!

This sounds absolutely amazing. Have some other non funko darth vader items that do the same thing and I love them. Looking forward to adding this to my collection for sure.

I think this is a great novelty for a few select characters.
I just hope we don’t see too many of this style made.

Re: Electronic Vader
I'm a big fan of this electronic Vader. I think the light and sounds really throws it back to the toys of old. They are having fun with some of these variants and I know it may not be for everyone, but I think the fact that they are willing to try with such a big license is a sign of good things for Funko in general.
That's my secret Cap... I'm always angry

It's a regular Pop so no worries on the price point. Just checked EE, it's at 14.99.

I agree with you that laugh is iconic a jabba movie moment would be awesome, and then I was thinking a talking yoda too

Re: Electronic Vader
I can't believe we're FINALLY getting lightip light sabers! And on top of that, SOUND! This is a breakthrough for sure. I had a feeling licensing was stopping Funko from doing it in the first place.

Re: Electronic Vader
This is a pretty cool step in the next direction for Funko - wonder if the price point will stay the same or go up since it's got more bells and whistles. And hopefully no action figure companies start to get grumpy.

I’m definitely not the target audience for this figure, I did try the light up Batman signal this past weekend, didn’t really feel it.
