Re: Youtuber Pops
Aren’t there other toys out there called YouTube heroes? I kind of remember seeing them sit on shelves in target until they eventually wound up on clearance. I would see the pops with similar issues. As a parent with a kid who loves YouTube if she tried to convince me to buy her a YouTube celebrity toy my answer would be heck no.

Re: Youtuber Pops
I could see these having a small appeal, especially with younger collectors who tend to be the YouTube generation. Not sure a wide release would do very well though.

Oh no we must!!! Just like he gets upset when people want to spell his name the traditional way, Aaron, so too must this be done. I'm all about stirring that pot and pouring gasoline on that fire!!! Plus a Dan Pop with big flowing hair would be phenomenal!!!

Re: Youtuber Pops
The wife would probably like Markiplier, who does weird game reviews.
I'd maybe get Tradechat/Panser, because she's cute as hell and does WoW reviews.
Besides those, nah.

Yeah they did exist
I remember a majority of the characters being Minecraft YouTubers which I guess would appeal more to kids but they really didn't since they ended up in the clearance bin.

It would make sense for Funko to make a run of 1,000 to 2,000 of these "celebrities" and push them at VidCon. They would have no problem cleaning out inventory.

Re: Streamer/Youtuber wishlist
Unfortunately, this is a very niche genre for Funko to make Pops or other products for. Many Funatics may enjoy one streamer and buy Pops of them, but a larger number of Funko customers probably never heard of the same so-called "popular" streamer. Funko would more than likely avoid this market due to its unpredictability.
...Still, I wouldn't mind seeing a Markiplier or Jacksepticeye Pop on the shelves of Game Stop.

Re: Streamer/Youtuber wishlist
I'm still amazed that Youtubers is a thing. My niece loves watching Cookie Squirrel (?) play with toys. Maybe I'm getting old, but when I was a kid we used to love playing with this and watching someone else play when you couldn't was torture.

YouTuber Pops?
Have any of you ever wondered if there will be pops based on big internet celebrities? To start, what if they had a Pewdiepie line of pops? Or a Markiplier line. Who would you pick if you got the opportunity to?

Pewdiepie has over 100 million subs on YT. Not my thing but I’m sure there would be a market for them especially if it was limited.

Re: Internet Celebrity Pops?
I could see specific ones being popular but they’d have to be recognizable. A lot of normal people Pops can be hard to recognize and I don’t think those do well.
I personally wouldn’t pick them up, celebrities in general aren’t really my thing. However, there may be a market for them.

Pewdiepie would definitely sell. Especially if he had an exclusive for his web shop. I don’t know of anyone I’d personally buy but I think he’d sell plenty.
