Shook seeing Jinx in starfire's spot in the five pack.

Ohhh I haven't seen that one. Do you have a pic or link? I checked my store but they didn't have them yet so I could see them in person.

Marvel would have to be bobblehead so doubtful we will see that in this design.

Ahh you're right, totally didn't think about that.

Hmmm. I need to find it...not sure where I saw it....but the 5 pack set is Robin/Raven/Beast Boy/Cyborg and Jinx who is hurling a hex. It's very cute.

The real issue with these is where will they go? I'm out of room!!!! ](*,)

Not to mention if they did Marvel or Star Wars HeroWorld the designs would be treading dangerously close into the Disney Infinity/Toy Box art style and they might ruffle a few feathers...

Oh I found it! I googled it yesterday and found nothing, but today I see it. They do look great, but yeah, it's super weird that Jinx is there instead of Starfire. I wonder if it's a mistake? Or maybe just a way for people to buy more so they can complete the set...I see through their tactics, but I still fall for them!

I think Jinx was used because there is a two pack of Starfire with silky and Blackfire....it seems like it was a decision to sell more product.

Yeah i can see that. Oh well, one less line to buy into i suppose lol

I just remembered about these cool Breaking Bad figure designs I saw years ago. They totally remind me of Hero World figures, and now I really badly want Breaking Bad hero world figures haha!.

Some Glams :freddy3:

Postby **Deaf Funko** » Sun Jan 07, 2018 1:09 am

Awesome! Would like to grab some of them for my boy birthday this March before going ECCC

Aghhhhhhhhhhh! Please tell me that Hawkman's missing pants are a simple paint error......I love that they did a set of these two but I will be bummed out if this is the actual product.

Thanks for the glams! =D>

I’m definitely going to be picking up the Scooby Doo set-especially since Funko hasn’t made a lot of villains! I think one Pop! Villain and 2 in Dorbz.

Postby **schmeebel** » Sun Jan 07, 2018 11:46 am

The Scooby-Doo figures are cool.
In fact, there all cool

Postby **schmeebel** » Sun Jan 07, 2018 11:47 am

The package layout is nice too.

Postby **Marnie** » Sun Jan 07, 2018 9:35 pm

They are starting to hit Targets in my area. The Scooby Doo villains are pretty cool. Although the press releases describe these as meant to introduce kids to Funko fun....I think the collectors in my area are going to be grabbing these.

Postby **gyrofx** » Sun Jan 07, 2018 9:42 pm

Hopefully they'll move into horrors with Hero world... I'll get on the wagon when that happens

Postby **ghostrye** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 1:34 am

Hoping some more DC pairs are in the works:

Green Arrow and Black Canary
Zatanna and Martian Manhunter
Mera and Black Manta
Red Tornado and Firestorm.
Green Lantern and Sinestro.

Postby **JohnnyPOP** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 11:11 am

Well, I think I can safely say I'll at least be adding the Justice League + the Hawks to my collection lol

and maybe that MMPR five pack too. They look interesting. I like the super over-stylized look they have.

Postby **Valde** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 11:20 am

These look heavily inspired by Disney Infinity and that’s great because those were some of the best figures out there. My buy less in 2018 is already out the window.

Postby **Jezter** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 11:42 am

Kind of bummed Superman is only in the 5 pack, which means I won't be getting him. They are neat, but not something I'd want to collect a lot of.

Hopefully they stay away from Doctor Who, lol

Hawkman with pants is the chase variant... lol

It's 2018 we don't wear pants anymore it's all about the booty shorts

Postby **bakivali** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 12:21 pm

I'm interested to see these in person. Some of the glams look good, others look a bit odd in this style. I wonder if other stores will get exclusives after this first release, or if this will continue to be a Target partnership.

Postby **Angology** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 12:25 pm

I saw the TTG two-packs at my Target, but am waiting on the bigger pack and will pick up all at once. I hadn't seen the Justice League ones. I will be getting those, too! I love the Dragonzord two-pack. Will have to pick that one up too.

Postby **Tynett** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 12:43 pm

The Power Ranger figures are just lovely! I have no more room to add a new obsession!!!! I think I'll just have to see if there is one I cannot resist and then I'll fall down the rabbit hole, haha!

Postby **mactds** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 12:45 pm

Spread your wings Funko! Hit an all new market with these, can definitely see the appeal.

Who is this "we" you are referring to? lol

Postby **treswright** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 1:41 pm

I think they are nicely rendered, but they don't appeal to me at all. They look very juvenile/ toylike, and as others have said very similar to other toy lines by other manufacturers. Kudos to Funko for continuing to branch out though. Maybe these will appeal to kids more than their current lines do.

Postby **volsspongebob** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 1:55 pm

I think I will put my Funko spending money in other lines. Good for the little ones market though

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 2:08 pm

These look good for introducing a younger audience to Funko but I'll personally pass.

Postby **stacyinil** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 2:13 pm

Question for those who have found them, is Target putting these in toy aisles or the collectors area with all the other Funko stuff? I didn't get a chance to check the action figure aisles when I was in the local store this past weekend, so I feel like I could have missed them.

My target doesn't have these in stock yet

hopefully they show up soon.

Postby **slimpicks** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 3:09 pm

cool line. not my cup of tea tho

Postby **FunkoPhoenix** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 5:14 pm

These are cool, but will they ever make an anime line up? One Piece please

Postby **AnyGivenFunko** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 7:01 pm

I saw the end cap display at target for these. They look cool, but I don't have any more room.

I am relived to report that a listing for the Hawkman/Hawkgirl set on eBay shows Hawkman with color corrected legs! He is no longer wearing a Speedo.

I, personally, am disappointed. I want the short shorts version.

There is a possibility that I too have pangs of regret. ....
