Gambit does look amazing. I always thought he'd look cool as a pop but they outdid themselves with his power


Gambit being as amazing as he is really makes me dream of what they could do with Nightcrawler & Jubilee! Obviously Jubilee needs to be GITD as well...and for Nighcrawler, I keep thinking translucent smoke cloud? I dunno, but I do know it would be amazing!


They need to do some type of smoke cloud for Nightcrawler while still making his tail visible. Very important.

I was thinking the same for Jubilee, also something similar to how they did Gambit's. Maybe the pose she does for the opening credits with her hands out, palms up (but with her powers closer to her hands)


Agreed, if his tail isn't visible, then he's just wrong!

That would totally work for Jubilee. Lots of colors for her, and yes, GITD preferred!

No big deal, we'll bring her home when she comes out no matter what! There have been a lot of great announcements lately, it's no wonder you can't keep them straight!


I may end up going to GS tomorrow if I have time, if I do I'll let you know the release date


Much appreciated - good luck at GS! Try not to buy all the cool things!

Comics Age of Apocalypse line would be an insta-buy instantly for me. I loved that event! Blink was awesome!


What movie? lol

Apocalypse and his 4 horsemen from the comics, would be awesome, especially if one of those horsemen was Wolverine. :D


:-" I didn't actually bother seeing the movie. I've been mad at the movies since they (in my opinion!) got Rogue completely wrong.

Apocalypse and his horsemen would be great! I have faith they could do them justice, too - so another insta-buy!

I have to tell you if we got movie Rogue before comic Rogue I was going to have an adult temper tantrum that would rival that of a 2-year-old. That is the great part about Funko though, they all know the industry. lol

With Apocalypse having so many horsemen over the years, it could be an entire line by itself LOL



He had a ton over the years that would be a really cool line. Wasn't Hulk a horseman at one point? War I think..

Same... MCU reboot will solve that. I know it will. X-men has anyways been a bigger name than the C list Avengers. They can do 20 years of xmen movies alone.

Oh no, there's only 1 movie - the first one treated her okay. Mostly there's just the 90's cartoon! And the comics. Bah to the movies! They failed us...!

I wouldn't even look twice at movie Rogue, sadly. Funko knows the industry, and they know US! And thank goodness they do - we may have a wait at times, but look what they come through with for us when we're patient! :cheers:

Goodness I hope so! I was a major X-men fan back in the 90s, had no idea who the Avengers even were! Full credit to the MCU for expanding my marvel universe. Hoping that when/if they reboot the X-men universe, they go in a very different direction. Really hoping they don't start completely over where they have to lay everything out for us. Do what they did with Tom Holland's Spiderman - just jump right in with the X-men, we know what's going on!

That is why I said I hate how she's been treated in most of the movies, it's literally just the first movie I liked. I did like the parts of Days of Future Past the Rogue Cut, but am also mad they needed to make a Rogue Cut at all, she should have been in the original movie.

I actually have been wanting to cosplay as Rogue, but I was unsure which outfit until recently. Now I just need to find someone to make it for me because I can't sew. But I want to cosplay as her from the Messiah Complex comic storyline, her green and white outfit with the cloak. I loved her in the 90s cartoon when I was growing up

Man I really hope so. There's solo much potential here, I'd hate to see it go in the wrong direction. But if anyone can do it justice, it'll be the MCU. And hopefully do Rogue justice this time.

I reaaaaallllllly hope Funko makes a couple more waves of 90s version X-Men before we start getting into the movies.
90s comics X-Men are the ones I love, and are the Pops I will buy.
Heck, even other characters outside of X-Men I'll go crazy for, like Namor, still need him, but a must have.

Nightcrawler, Bishop, Havok, Polaris, Omega Red, Blob, Toad, Pyro, Forge, Jubilee, Silver Fox, Maverick, Sunspot, Cannonball, Boom Boom, Firestar, Stryfe, Apocalypse, Spiral, Silver Samurai, Blink, Yukio, Warpath, Thunderbird, Banshee, Siryn, Dazzler, Multiple Man, A Sentinel, Morph, Captain Britain, Alpha Flight, Mojo, Shatterstar, Longshot, Sebastian Shaw, Willian Stryker, Mister Sinister, Darwin, Masque, so many many more...lol
Hey I'm John! :joker:

Pops!- 860ish
Dorbz: 35
Mystery Minis: 34
Sodas: 7
Vinyl Idolz: 2
Hikari: 1
Mini-Hikari: 1

This Is Where A Really Neat Signature Is Going To Go....Eventually...Maybe.

I don't know what happened but about 2 years ago they started pumping out quality molds. Look at the effects they use for comic and anime pops

90s comics X-Men are the ones I love, and are the Pops I will buy.
Heck, even other characters outside of X-Men I'll go crazy for, like Namor, still need him, but a must have.

Nightcrawler, Bishop, Havok, Polaris, Omega Red, Blob, Toad, Pyro, Forge, Jubilee, Silver Fox, Maverick, Sunspot, Cannonball, Boom Boom, Firestar, Stryfe, Apocalypse, Spiral, Silver Samurai, Blink, Yukio, Warpath, Thunderbird, Banshee, Siryn, Dazzler, Multiple Man, A Sentinel, Morph, Captain Britain, Alpha Flight, Mojo, Shatterstar, Longshot, Sebastian Shaw, Willian Stryker, Mister Sinister, Darwin, Masque, so many many more...lol



I want a remold of all the ones they released already. Theyre pretty dated

Same... MCU reboot will solve that. I know it will. X-men has anyways been a bigger name than the C list Avengers. They can do 20 years of xmen movies alone.


Goodness I hope so! I was a major X-men fan back in the 90s, had no idea who the Avengers even were! Full credit to the MCU for expanding my marvel universe. Hoping that when/if they reboot the X-men universe, they go in a very different direction. Really hoping they don't start completely over where they have to lay everything out for us. Do what they did with Tom Holland's Spiderman - just jump right in with the X-men, we know what's going on!

Very true. If your an x-men fan you are up to date on the mumbo jumbo so get to the good stuff.


Exactly. Go ahead and have Wolvie crush on Jean, but don't drag it out! Don't redo Dark Phoenix...(well, maybe since apparently it was terrible?)...give us new stuff that we've been waiting years for! Bring in the characters we've been asking for, and hit the ground running!

Rogue is my favorite! I hate how she's been treated in most of the movies


Oh no, there's only 1 movie - the first one treated her okay. Mostly there's just the 90's cartoon! And the comics. Bah to the movies! They failed us...!


That is why I said I hate how she's been treated in most of the movies, it's literally just the first movie I liked. I did like the parts of Days of Future Past the Rogue Cut, but am also mad they needed to make a Rogue Cut at all, she should have been in the original movie.

I actually have been wanting to cosplay as Rogue, but I was unsure which outfit until recently. Now I just need to find someone to make it for me because I can't sew. But I want to cosplay as her from the Messiah Complex comic storyline, her green and white outfit with the cloak. I loved her in the 90s cartoon when I was growing up


I haven't watched the Rogue cut yet - is it worth it? I was worried it would just disappoint me!

I would really love it if we got variants of Rogue in her different outfits. The green and white one is a favorite! Grateful they didn't do a chase with the different outfits, I'd rather they just give me a lineup of Rogue's for my Rogue army! If/when you cosplay, we'll need pictures! Just to brainstorm for our future pops, of course!

I have to tell you if we got movie Rogue before comic Rogue I was going to have an adult temper tantrum that would rival that of a 2-year-old. That is the great part about Funko though, they all know the industry. lol


I wouldn't even look twice at movie Rogue, sadly. Funko knows the industry, and they know US! And thank goodness they do - we may have a wait at times, but look what they come through with for us when we're patient! :cheers:



I don't know what happened but about 2 years ago they started pumping out quality molds. Look at the effects they use for comic and anime pops


I'll take your word on the timeline, it's all kind of a blur for me! All I know is that they are nailing it lately! Hope they keep up the great work!

I liked the scenes Rogue was in, but it was still very minimal compared to the movie. Even though her scenes weren't numerous, she did play a vital role (how did they do this storyline without her?!) I had to see it because it had Rogue in it, even though I knew it wouldn't be anywhere near what I was hoping for. Honestly, it's been years since I've seen it, but that's what I remember from it.

A Rogue army, yes! We're off to a good start with 2! Hopefully I can find someone to make the outfit for me. I'll be sure to post pics! I currently cosplay as Jessica Jones mostly.

He had a ton over the years that would be a really cool line. Wasn't Hulk a horseman at one point? War I think..


Yes you are correct. He was indeed War at one point.


Well Funko feel free to make that :)

They can do movies more to the x-men time line. I would just leave the dark Phoenix alone. They have a long line of villains they could go up against like Mr. Sinister would be good.

I would not be against an action pose or two of Wolverine, as long as his footing is solid and he doesn't fall over. \:D/
