That's what I thought too when I saw Funko tweet it! They made a wobbler so it may be pop time!

I was so confused earlier, but RIP Mr. Peanut. I cannot wait to see a pop be made of this iconic Ad Icon.

I’m pretty sure we’ll get a variant, at least I hope so because he’ll be a great addition to the ad icon line.

When I heard the news, my mind immediately went to the Ad Icons line and hopefully we'll get a version of Mr. Peanut immortalized forever in POP form.

I'm pretty sure the marketing campaign will end with a new "Mr. Peanut" and there's probably already merchandise in the works. I wouldn't be too surprised if there's a Pop for whatever the new version is. Should be interesting to see what Planters does.

One week out from the Super Bowl, bet this is part of the hype for a commercial that introduces a new Mr. Peanut.

I think he will becoming immortalized in the pop way here soon. Did they ever say why they were getting rid of him? I also believe he will “ die” during the super bowl then suddenly come back to life again. Seems like a nice publicity gimmick.

...and here we are talking about it...1 week before the Super Bowl (as you mentioned above). I bet you're right; this is all part of a bigger plan.

Let's see if Funko makes a drop on Monday after the big game (or better yet immediately after said commercial during the Super Bowl) with the 'new' Planters Ad ICon…?
