Netflix’s Squid Game Funko POP!

Postby **PopPChulo** » Tue Sep 28, 2021 2:51 am

If you haven’t watched this show - it is a must watch. When I tell you all this show is a banger - it is a BANGER. I think that this show is ripe for chases & would def translate well into the Funko aesthetic. Anyone else watch Squid Game and would like to see POP!?

Never heard of it, just looked it up and that didn’t help lessen my confusion. What would you like to see from it?

I think Front Man would be great and what’s crazy about the show is almost every character is ripe for a chase lol

front man could have a chase and even the basic foot soldiers with the square and triangle

One of the best shows I’ve seen recently hands down. Highly recommended that you take the time out to watch. I rarely recommend shows lol

Man you have to finish the whole thing - when I say it’s compelling that’s a understatement. Absolutely amazing writing. The character designs are really unique but still simplistic. I think they would translate well into pops

I would def take the time out to actually watch it. It’s pretty phenomenal. Front man, the foot soldiers and maybe the head boss. Main character would be awesome but it’s more or less the characters revolving around him that have pretty dope character designs.

I will have to get on this show because I've not heard of it. Any good moments that would make good Pop scenes? :freddy3:

I dont really know about Pops for this , but I did enjoy it!

I think High Rise Invasion also on Netflix might have more unique looking characters but you never know!

Postby **renardchua** » Tue Sep 28, 2021 1:38 pm

Definitely a great series, do check it out if you haven’t!

But so far, haven’t seen any K-Dramas being into Pop! form, but who knows!

Postby **philipali** » Tue Sep 28, 2021 2:23 pm

Loved the series! Hope they do turn them into Pops... but not sure as there are no KDramas that have been turned into Pops as of this time... but who knows... We have BTS so that's a start

Finished it... Want/ NEED more

Love this show, currently half way through. I usually don’t go for pops of normal people. But I would definitely pick up some of the workers with their different masks and shapes.
Also any kind of bloody chase or variant would be awesome!

The workers would be cool

This is all anyone's talking about right now. Guess I should check it out. lol

I def don't normally click on those Netflix links whenever they have a new show in their lineup. But I'm really glad I decided to watch this one. Would love to see some of the main characters and the workers. I do wonder what a Season 2 would look like. After enjoying "Alice in Borderland" almost a year ago, I knew I'd enjoy this one after seeing the first episode.

The workers are definitely ripe for chase variants and I think they would translate really well into the pop aesthetic. As a couple other people mentioned. I would love to see the old man haha he was great & if I think one of the rich guys with the glitter masks would be absolutely amazing. I think the masks look really interesting and really lend themselves to the aesthetics of funko

Tbh I know you’ve probably finished it - so what I think would make the most sense at this moment would be a prequel - you can’t tell me that wouldn’t be a banger

You are right, I finished it LOL (How did you know?)... Would LOVE to see a prequel and learn about the origin story, the first games, how they first recruited people and if anything's changed between then and present day, etc.

Love this show. I don't know if they are going to do a second season but I think it would not have the same effect as this one did.

Postby **Nooklin** » Wed Sep 29, 2021 5:51 pm

I’d be in for a circle, square, and a triangle.

All they would have to do to keep us engaged is do a prequel - if you’ve seen the whole thing then you know why - there’s a whole chunk of story missing

Exactly and there’s a certain relationship that was unresolved I want to be explored ( I won’t go into it but if you think hard you’ll know what I’m talking about ) but seeing how beautiful the writing was on this; I’m sure the next season would be just as compelling especially if they work their way backwards

Know what I'm watching this weekend!

Postby **Universal_ghost** » Sat Oct 02, 2021 6:11 pm

Loved season 1 and can't wait for a season 2! I would definitely get the pops if funko made them from this show!

I hope you got eyes on it. I’m starting to see concept art pop up online so there seems to be a demand for these pops and boy do the concepts look good. I hope funko is considering rolling these out. It was such a great show and I’m sure they will have more seasons

Watched the first 5 episodes and I'm pretty hooked!

Or I could roll with a Red/Green light up Doll from the show as a 6 inch pop. :freddy3:

I binged it last night and I liked it but honestly don't get the huge hype. But it's cool to have more diversity in shows and potential pops.

Postby **CaseyJones14** » Thu Oct 07, 2021 1:27 pm

The hype would probably be gone if Funko decided to make Pops for the show (takes a while to design/produce), but I'd probably buy some. Like some said above the guards would be cool as well as the Front Man. They could also make the players and the creator with his mask.

Postby **thefunkohunko** » Thu Oct 07, 2021 5:49 pm

I've seen them make pops for less popular Netflix shows, so I bet this would do very well! I loved the show, and truly would consider picking up some!

Postby **mongoose12** » Thu Oct 07, 2021 6:01 pm

I’m creeped out by what I’ve seen so far but if the merch is good I’ll definitely get it lol
