Pitch a Mini line!

Great things come in mysterious miniature or pint sized packages, but which great thing will it be? It's all a mystery until you open one. Then the fun begins.

I still deeply believe DBZ could hold its own Mini line. Without question. Or for fun....Freddy Minis! Do a con exclusive case or something.

Banjo-Kazooie! There's tons of possibilities, so they could do a couple of "waves". For example:

-standard pose for both, together and individually
-some comabt/ability poses (Talon Trot, Flight, Wonderwing, etc.)
-main bosses and henchmen (Gruntilda, Klungo, Gruntlings, Uggers, etc.)
-world enemies (Snippets, Topper the Carrot, Billy Bob, etc.)
-world "bosses" or named enemies (Mr. Vile, Bigbutt, Snacker, etc.)
-allies (Mumbo, Tooty, Bottles, Jamjars, Gobi, etc.)
-Jinjos
-Mumbo transformations (Washing Machine, Pumpkin, Walrus, etc.)

Overwatch and League of Legends. I play neither, but I won't deny their awesome character designs.
I bought a Mystery Mini and thought it was cool. Now I have shelves covered in Funko vinyl products. What Happened?

Well we have horror and scifi classics. I think they could do comedy classics...
Charlie Chaplin
Laurel and Hardy
Abbot and Costello
The Marx brothers
The three stooges

That's 12 right there...

I know it's been said before but I would LOVE an action movie set:
John McLain
John Matrix
Tango and Cash
Talon (with 3 bladed sword) - more of a fantasy movie character but it's an action movie as well
Connor McLeod
Kurgan
Cameron Poe

While I'd definitely be in favor of action or comedy classics lines, I suspect the reason we don't see them is because horror and sci-fi tend to house the more visually distinctive personalities, especially when they have to fit into a simple design, and it would turn into a bunch of faceless muscled dudes with guns (action) and a bunch of weirdly mustached faceless dudes in funny hats (comedy).

I just saw Kubo and the two Strings today. What about a Laika set of minis? Kubo itself could produce like 5-6 amazing mini sculpts. Then you've got the Corpse Bride, Coraline, etc, etc. They could be really cool.

(Also I just need a mini of the Monkey and the Samurai Beetle from Kubo pls.)

I know I posted earlier in the year but I thought of a few more lines. XD

Gravity Falls (because this show is so amazing and has so little merch I might cry): Dipper, Mabel, Grunkle Stan, Grunkle Ford, Wendy, Sooz, Waddles!, Bill Cipher, Pacifica Northwest, Gideon, Candy, Greta, the list just goes ON! And this doesn't even include the "monsters of the week" like the Summerween Trickster or the gnomes.

Pacific Rim! With the sequel in the works, I'm crossing my fingers we get some Funko merch. There are so many characters they could sculpt, especially if they included the Kaiju and the Jaegers! I really want figures of Mako, Raleigh, Stacker, Newt, Hermann, Tendo, and the other pilots with their Jaegers and the main Kaiju they've fought/defeated.

Fear the Walking Dead has been great this season, and I think the companion show to The Walking Dead should get it's own Mystery Mini set. Lots of characters to chose from now, and of course, more Infected to stand along side our Walkers.

Also, Z-Nation could make a neat set of Mystery Minis. I would love to have Murphy, Doc, Roberta, and 10K on my shelf. More zombies too, including animals. I need a zombie bear!

That's actually a cool idea. Could be like the Walking Dead line with half of them as random Wesen and others being main or supporting characters such as zombified Nick, Retched Kat, Wu and the Beaver guy from Season 1.

Here's another that could be really good.. Metal Gear Solid

1. Solid Snake
2. Liquid Snake
3. Cyber Ninja
4. Hal Emmerich
5. Vulcan Raven
6. Sniper Wolf
7. Praying Mantis
8. Revolver Ocelot
9. Decoy Octopus
10. Meryl Silverburgh
11. Metal Gear Rex
12. Hideo Kojima (cause why not)

You could easily do a 12 character set for each game... easy variants would be like Invisible for Hal, Cyber Ninja, Solid Snake.. maybe a red bandana Solid Snake (infinite ammo)... Unmasked Psycho Mantis... man so many possibilities! :freddy2:

Rocky Horror Picture Show! Instead of putting these guys in Horror 4 or 5 or whatever, spreading them out, give them their own set. Just do them in the Horror Style so that they can fit it in on the shelf with our other Horror Minis. (Honestly, I just want Frank-N-Furter and Riff-Raff, Columbia, Magenta and Rocky!). Obviously the other characters (Eddie, Dr. Scott, Janet and Brad) would round out the set. But variants! Lab Coat Frank, Transylvanian Garb Riff-Raff and Magenta. Columbia with Mickey ears. I could go on... I honestly think I'd like those more than the POPS!

What Mini line do I want?

Well, I have two requests...

1) Original Funko Characters....Amazing Carlos, Otto, El Guappo, and all the rest.

2) Minis of all the old Freddy Funko Wobblers.

Wow, looking back it seems like we nailed most of them! Wonder if Funko was reading this thread? Haha probably not, but makes you think. :)

Haha yeah. No phantom animatronics yet however. If they do, maybe after Sister Location wanes in 2018.
