I can see some features from Vinyl Idolz, but it has a distinct feel to it overall.

I wonder what licences we can see here as well.

Curious to see how they’ll do. Rock Candy did pretty good but Vinyl Idolz/Vixens did not. The small size will probably be nice for displays.
Curious about the packing on them and hope they focus more on the musicians.

Always excited to see new things from Funko.

These are not for me. I like the cute stylization that other lines have. I'm sure these will appeal to some though. If not the design, than the licenses like rap/rock and sports. Those have a lot of fans.

Also L O L at the comments on Facebook. I don’t think these aren’t going to be as popular as pop but like I said in my previous post, it’s good to see some new stuff from Funko.

There is nothing here for me yet, but I like the designs. Make some MLB players and I’ll be on board. Looking forward to seeing the packaging and where Funko takes this!

I always get excited to see Funko try something new, even if it is not my cup of tea. Really strange to see people say Funko needs to stick with what they are good at instead of trying new things because if Funko stuck with that mindset 99% of those people would have no idea what Funko is.

Not interested in these and will stick to Pop! and Soda. We'll see how they do over time, I seem to recall a lot of Wobbler fans didn't like Pop! when that line first came out.

Also, gotta say I'm not a huge fan of the Gold name for these. Makes me think of Kenny Bania in Seinfeld... speaking of which, I'd maybe buy a Gold if they made one of him.lol

Neat designs, not properties I would go after so far but I like the idea. I have a feeling these could reach a new market and get more people into Funko. I would say these could be wanted by people who like limited shoes or sports cards maybe.

I am not sure about this new line. Based on concept art, I don't know if they really grab my attention. I will have to stick with Sodas and pops. For those that love these, I bet you are excited. I feel like there was something Funko did that was similar to these before.

It is always fun to see Funko try something new. It is so true as a company they have to continue to evolve and come up with new products. So many companies get complacent with what they have and end up going out of business.

For sure. We all know POP is the best selling and most know thing Funko makes but it took a few other lines to get there. If they only stuck to wobblers, who knows where they would be.

From what I've noticed here this seems to be a hypebeast targeted line by focusing on these specific licenses. Which is nothing I would be interested in, but if the hook the right crowd could work

Seeing responses from it I don't know if it's going to stick the way Sodas did for example

It does kind of seem like that target for the line, wonder if they will have exclusives for future conventions of the "hypebeast" groups.

The line already reminded me of Vinyl Idolz, but that packaging reminds me even more of them. To me they're Vinyl Idolz, but a little less animated. These are a little more serious while still being stylized.

Very interested to see how this line does, I was a huge fan of Vinyl Idolz. I'm not personally a sports or music characters collector but I know quite a few people who are excited about this. If it's successful I could totally see it expanding into other licenses.

I do lake the display window. But so far the design might be too big for me. If anything, I’ll probably stick to the smaller variants.

It is exciting to see new products though.

Easy pass. That gold logo is telling nothing, way too big on the box. Figures look wonky and generic cartoony at the same time. I wish Funko would go back to hand sculpting their stuff instead of running everything through ZBrush.
