Richard "Thy God" Simmons POP!

Postby TonyFunkoFreakHead » Wed Sep 16, 2020 3:42 pm

Not only are we blessed with 1 Richard Simmon pop, we are getting 3!! WOOT WOOT. The target one is sweet, but I am secretly waiting for a Funko Shop drop of a Flocked Richard Simmons Pop w/ Glitter..........to dream :)

Anyone else excited?

This came out of nowhere, but definitely a way back throwback. They do seem to have captured the odd, bigger-than-life persona though

They def know how to hit that nostalgia just right sometimes...Will prolly get the target one since its got some extra zazz to it, fingers crossed for a more LE piece off funko shop with the flocked hair and glitter outfit.

I actually like these pops, kind of surprise that we’re getting him. Think I’ll go after the target exclusive one.

Congratulations to Richard for being immortalized in a pop. He’s help lots of people but I’m going to take a pass on this pop.
