Any non 8bit Mario and a 6" Bowser woudl be enough for me. MK rides would be cool!

I'd buy the Mario kart rides.


What about off-brand Diddy Kong Racing pops?

I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again. An entire set of Mario Kart Rides would be expensive but amazing to see.

Define "entire set" are we talking Mario Kart SNES original line up? Or crazy Mario Kart Tour? One seems more reasonable...

Doing the OGs first only seems right but I could definitely see it expanding. I know they'd be popular so the amount of expansion would probably be wild. Lots of possibilities.

Mario and Luigi are a no-brainer. So is Samus Aran with an unmasked or zero suit variant. Also wouldn't mind seeing some of their other characters eventually, Captain Olimar would translate well to pop form so would all the Animal Crossing characters. Child Link and Skull Kid with a Majora's Mask variant as well and possibly a Ganondorf. Captain Falcon and Fox McCloud pop rides could work too.

There's a lot they can do and we already got five of the starter Pokemon, so that's a start. lol

Still, Nintendo seems pretty stiff on giving up the licensing on these. Let's hope. I think a set of original racers in 8 bit would be rad

It's pretty niche, but Earthbound pops would be an incredible line from Nintendo's retro days

At this point I dont even care what Nintendo pops were made if Funko could actually make this happen! And I do think it could eventually happen. I mean we all thought Pokemon would never happen and now look at what's happening!
I'm a Funko collector from Chicago. I'll travel just about anywhere for the love of Funko! Looking forward to in person meet-ups with Funatics once again at cons, Fundays, where ever! :freddy2:

I know Brian M. Has hammered Nintendo to obtain their licenses but they are stubborn about who they release their licenses too. I've even written a letter myself to Nintendo on behalf of Funko asking them if they would please reconsider releasing a few of their classic characters.

Nintendo Pops highly desired would be:
Mario & Luigi
Toad
Princess Peach
Yoshi
Bowser
Samus
Zelda/Link
Hulk Smash!
