Dali would be awesome.

Or maybe some artists done in the style they are known for! A surrealist Dali, impressionist Monet, cubist Picasso.

This is a great idea! Puts a unique spin on these pops and makes them stand out. I think they could do some cool art on the boxes as well, maybe have the box designs done in the artists style as well.

Such amazing ideas! :) If they did super artistic pops like this it would definitely make me want to buy. Making human pops more unique is always a good idea.

I'm not sure if they'd be able to get the post mortem publicity rights on warhol...would probably depend on his family's estate and how willing they are to license his image.

just think of the Mona Lisa or the girl with the pearl earring. I think they would look cool but i can also see there might be some logistical issues with the paintings owners

Some Banksy pieces would translate well to the Pop style. I wonder how he would feel about his art being Pop-ified. I feel like he probably wouldn't license vinyl figures. lol Who knows? Maybe one day we'll see a Banksy piece in the Pop style out in the world. ;-)
