How cool would a Bill Nye, Carl Sagan, or Neil Degrass Tyson POP! be!

Postby x56735x » Thu Aug 10, 2017 1:15 am

I've always loved learning stuff on TV. When I was a kid, I would always come home from school to wait for Carmen Sandiego or Bill Nye to come on.

Since another childhood TV "teacher" Bob Ross was made into a POP! I'm wondering if they would do a Carmen Sandiego, Beakman's World, Zooboomafoo, Bill Nye, Carl Sagan, Neil Degrass Tyson, or even a Mr. Rogers!

What do you guys think?

I would be down for the science bros. Alton Brown would be another good teacher of sorts, who combined science with cooking.

Scientists line sounds great. Just TV personalities to continue the Bob Ross theme seems great. Bill Nye is a must. Could even do old time scientists like Newton, Einstein, Galileo, Copernicus, etc.

A part of my childhood died when my beloved Kratt's Creatures was replaced with Zooboomafoo.

If they make Neil drGrasse Tyson, I would need a Pop! Ride or Deluxe of The Ship of the Imagination.

I would love these but bill bye would be one I would go looking for the day it was released. I can remember watching him in school when I was a kid. As an adult I still love to see his passion for science
