Book character pops

Postby **monktoast** » Tue Jun 05, 2018 12:36 am

I was thinking..What characters would you like which haven't been done yet?

Here are a few I'd like:

Dragon lance..characters such as raistlin and caramon would be really cool

Drizzt books..drizzt is just awesome

Beverly cleary and judy blume books like ribsy or tales of a fourth grace nothing and superfudge

Velveteen rabbit

Artemis fowl

Jim butcher

Well, my main want for book characters would be from the Goosebumps series but we already have a thread on that, so I would say characters from A Song of Ice and Fire that didn’t make their way to the TV version.

Iron Druid Chronicles

First one to spring to mind, would be Harry Dresden

Paddington Bear! The variant options are vast!

The charters from Beatrix Potter and more charters from Wind and the Willows!

in a nutshell all my fave books from when I was a child. lol

Various folks and creatures from Discworld.

Here is an idea, Pennywise! Oh wait.....

I'd love a flocked Velveteen Rabbit! Or Paddington!

I know there have been a couple of movies, but would love to see a full set of Narnia Pops.

If they did book character pops, they'd have to be very well known to sell, imo. B&N could do an exclusives line with characters from ~classics, even package them with the book.

Curious George and the man with the yellow hat.

While joking you're definitely not wrong. There's many more from the book they could do than the mini-series and movie combined.

Aside from illustrated books or non-movie/show-appearing characters they'd be very non-descript, as much as I'd love Gabrielle Swift and Arabella from The Resurrectionist, however unrecognisable they'd be.
Roald Dahl characters would be incredible though, particularly thanks to the art style of Quentin Blake. While I intend to make some customs for his works, I'd love officials to be made!

Now this is a great idea for a two pack

I agree on The Chronicles of Narnia.

Narnia..Ooohhh yeah! So many possibilities for rides and what not too!

A line of fairy tale characters, Very Hungry Catepillar, If you Give a Mouse a Cookie, Animorphs(Ax the Andalite maybe?), and Sword of Truth pops. I want a Mord Sith pop! It would look badass.

I totally went from children's books to violent fantasy novels lol

Dorian Gray with a variant of him after looking at the painting. Also Basil and Henry.

Postby **Crazykidrev** » Mon Jun 11, 2018 11:59 am

I'd like to see some more Dr. Seuss products and even some Series of Unfortunate Events pops. I remember always dying to go to the book fair at school to pick up the next book in the series!

Postby **dolphinax2** » Mon Jun 11, 2018 12:09 pm

I'm going with Clifford, The Big Red Dog. I would like to also see Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf. Oh, and Wishbone, there are many adaptions he could have.

I'm with you on that one. Book popularity is very hard to judge especially when a movie hasn't been made from the source material. I think classic children books are an easy way to get this to start (selling with the book is a super great idea!)

Yes! I would buy them all.

I remember Wishbone the dog. The Sherlock Holmes one would be great.

I would love if they did the Velveteen Rabbit or Paddington. I’m surprised they haven’t done Paddington yet with the movies being so good!

This is a good idea. Paul and Baron Harkonnen would be cool for sure

I think it would be tough to do any non-animated characters or any character that doesn't already have some sort of artist depiction. Part of the beauty of reading is letting your mind decide what the character looks like and I have a feeling everyone "sees" them a little differently!

And a sandworm Rides!

i wouldn't mind some Song of Ice & Fire figures, mostly just for the characters that the show ignored, mostly just because I want ColdHands on his elk...

Postby **cheekylyssa** » Mon Jun 11, 2018 11:37 pm

Love to see a Nancy Drew - but I really like the ideas about Paddington, Sherlock Holmes and the Velveteen Rabbit. Ooo also the raven from Poe (I’d love to see a whole Poe line, like Fall of the House of Usher, Tomb of Ligeia, but probably too niche by far.)

Or maybe even Leto II as the sandworm god emperor.
