Agreed! I prefer the glow, but I'm biased towards glows.

I do love that there is SUCH good detail on the normal Anakin freddy

Not sure if we’ll end up with a “Best overall Freddy” or a “Best Fundays Freddy” but I’d equally vote for Glow Anakin Freddy and Megatron Freddy.


I might be in the minority here but I think Best Overall Freddy is the Floaty Freddy from SDCC. I just love it so much.


.. and now we have 2023 Best Freddy Overall... Which one, as there were 2?


I was thinking of the regular one, so you got it right in the pic you posted :)
Please Funko make Taylor Swift Pops!

Most wanted non-Taylor Pops: Carson Teva, Naru from Prey, The Last of Us TV show

Did the Lion King Moment or Rapunzel boat moment come out this year? Love them both! (I know I got them both this year, but wasn't sure if it maybe came out at the end of 2022)

The Fairly Odd Parents is a great Pop. I bet with undercutting on eBay that will be eventually under $60-70 for a shared version. Give if time and strike when the price makes sense. Lowest BIN I see right now is $84.99.


I’ve been watching the price too. Like you mentioned I’m comfortable with the 60.00 price. lol

If you are referring to the Lion King Hakuna Matata then yes! I like that moment as well. Rapunzel and Flynn in the boat was release in March of this year I believe.

First on my list is all the Star Wars Freddy's from Fundays. The new Nightmare Before Christmas pops, the facet pops, and the 25th anniversary Maleficent. I also really like the mega Mickey, Boba Fett, and Darth Vader.

Fun questions being posed to the group, very interested to see the eventual 'winners'. Though really, aren't we the winners, that we get to bring home those cool pops??

The best common pop this year, for me, was King Namor from Black Panther 2. The level of detail they did with his headpiece is insane, and made it an instant classic for me. Definitely always going to stay in the collection!

Yes I totally agree with the level of details on that Namor POP! Thanks for suggesting this one. Again with the numerous releases, it wouldn't have been a POP I thought of if I was asked about POPs of 2023 .
