I updated the OP with the news of Hamm and Rex as well as moved Inside Out and Ant-Man from the "Coming Soon" to the "Now Available" sections

ok, just found this image in another thread, it appears as though we are getting a few more Disney Pops that we didn't know about, but I'm not quite sure what to make of this... Obviously the Alice is the live action version of her, but it doesn't specify about Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter, and Queen of Hearts... and while normally I might assume they're all the live action versions, consider this, There are already Mad Hatter and Cheshire Cat pops of the classic animated versions, and while I could maybe see a Johnny Depp Hatter selling well, I don't think that version of Shishire Cat is nearly as popular. Also, Helena Bonham Carter played the Red Queen, and while her version was kind of an amalgamation of both Red Queen and Queen of Hearts, they are 2 separate characters. The huge irony here is that the first live action followed more of the plot points from the Through The Looking Glass book instead of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but the second movie coming out in a year is titled Through The Looking Glass... hmmm curiouser and curiouser... Also worth noting is that we never got the Queen of hearts originally so maybe now we are FINALLY getting her. After all with the Toy Story section it lists 2 characters that we've seen before and 2 new ones. I'm going to cross fingers that this is the animated Queen of Hearts instead of the live action Red Queen, especially considering the odd timing, why release live action Alice pops in October when the new movie doesn't come out until the following May (7 months later)

I'm fairly certain they are all versions of the live action movie. The Mad Hatter was shown on one of the pop shirts when they were first shown, and they all have the same release date, so I would assume it's a set.

Postby **wraithkelso** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 10:30 am

^That would both be unfortunate for fans of the animated classic, and very odd timing (7 months before the movie???)

Postby **wonderful217** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 10:33 am

It could be to create interest for the movie characters so that when the next movie comes out, they can do a second set? I'm not sure, but I'm excited for them either way. I also think the animated Queen of Hearts would be difficult to translate to pop.

I disagree, I actually think it would be easier then the live action version... literally just make a fatter dress with her head

Postby **wonderful217** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 11:00 am

Well either way, at least we're a Queen of Hearts and another Mad Hatter regardless of what their source is.

Postby **wraithkelso** » Tue Jun 30, 2015 4:36 pm

I just think the animated versions are far more easily recognizable from a distance as being Alice in Wonderland. Like if they did the animated Tweedle Dee and Dum I'd get them, but not the live action versions, same for the white rabbit, and Queen of Hearts, ad Caterpillar

Postby **leecifer83** » Wed Jul 01, 2015 8:27 am

Although I'd prefer the animated versions, I still don't mind the live action. I really would like to see more animated figures since I didn't start collecting until about a year ago and missed out on the originals at price point

That's the same for me. I only got into collecting Pops last week (!!!) so have missed out on so many that I would love.

I grew up with the animated films, too, so they have a soft spot with me over the live-action – though I did watch live-action Cinderella last week and loved it.

Anyone found the Cars Pops?? I think they were supposed to be released today thru Gamestop based on their release date product sheet.

Going to go sometime today to check it out.

Blue Dress Ariel is up on Hot Topic! Sorry I don't know how to post the link.

Postby **stroud1492** » Sat Jul 04, 2015 3:12 pm

I found the Blue Dress Ariel today at Hot Topic, they had 4!!! I checked in with Barnes and Noble, and the Rapunzel, and Maximus I preordered should be coming on the 13th. Does anyone have any news about the Blue Dress Aurora?

Postby **Capt Hook** » Sat Jul 04, 2015 5:26 pm

There is no blue dress Aurora as of right now she is only in pink.

Postby **stroud1492** » Sat Jul 04, 2015 6:33 pm

Thought I saw it somewhere. Maybe I was wrong? But still, it could be a possible HT exclusive. I would much rather have Short Hair Rapunzel and Blue Pascal, then the Aurora, but they both could be possibilities!

Here is the glam for the regular release of Regina.

There are quite a few differences between the regular and the exclusive. The regular has a black and purple dress, purple eyeshadow, a collar, gold earrings, and is holding an apple. The SDCC exclusive has a black and silver dress with glitter, a neutral eyeshadow, silver earrings, and is holding a heart.

Postby **ginaf20697** » Wed Jul 08, 2015 3:16 pm

I kind of like the regular one better. Good thing because I probably will not be able to get the other anyway

Postby **wraithkelso** » Wed Jul 08, 2015 3:30 pm

where did you find that glam? I can't find any of the Once images apart from the SDCC one

the rest of the Once Upon a Time glams are now available and I must say they all turned out very well, I can't wait ti have these on the shelf (I made space for them as soon as they were announced lol

) We also now know the number assingments for each. Personally I wish they were either their own line or part of Disney, but I guess I understand why they are in TV.

Emma Swan (267), Regina (268), Snow White (269), Prince Charming (270), Rumplestiltskin (271), Captain Hook (272)

hey, can anyone at SDCC please try to ask the Funko employees if Pocahontas and Mulan are still happening?

Postby **WarriorPrincess** » Fri Jul 10, 2015 9:34 pm

I was wondering about that too. I hope so!

Postby **leecifer83** » Fri Jul 10, 2015 10:27 pm

Oh man I need that Rumple! Definitely looking forward to all the new disney coming out!

Im not 100% sure I want to know the answer to this :-#

I just want to play the ignorance is bliss game,if they never say no they aren't coming then they always can still be coming.

About the new Alice in Wonderland Pops coming up, 2015 is the 150th anniversary of the book being published, so maybe that's why now?

Postby **wraithkelso** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 11:32 am

updated to reflect the new Star Wars series being available and the release time frame for Once Upon a Time

Sorry if this is off topic (don't mean to hijack the thread) but has anyone heard if there will be any D23 Expo 2015 exclusives?

Postby **wraithkelso** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 3:29 pm

haven't hears anything yet, but will try to find out over the next few weeks

Postby **grandpa_stern** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 6:19 pm

Sorry, someone asked earlier but I didn't see a reply. Are there park exclusives or just the same old same old? Thanks!

There are supposedly going to be some park exclusives however I haven't heard much about them in a while. I'll see if I can find anything out while I'm at Disneyland for the next few days!!

Postby **GoldenYellowPup** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 6:05 pm

Don't remember if I posted it already but Inside Out Pops are mostly if not all sold out at the parks. So these are for sure popular.

Looks like there will be a green Ramone Cars variant exclusive to Target.

The info was listed as the description for the Target exclusive pink Ric Flair WWE Pop.

http://www.target.com/p/pop-wwe-rick-flair/-/A-21488337#prodSlot=medium_1_11&term=funko?clkid=zTXXz9XIlQziQqaRWiU-mRrOUkX2-hTEeQ7sSY0&lnm=79373&afid=VigLink&ref=tgt_adv_xasd0002

details

You could say Ramone has a taste for the finer things.
As the resident mechanic in Cars, he's responsible for keeping everyone up to date while expanding his artistic abilities!
Ramone in green finish is exclusive to Target and will race off the shelves!
