I wonder...

Postby Mr. Chandler » Fri Aug 21, 2015 12:08 pm

I was watching Fraggle Rock the other day and wondered why there aren't any POP!s of the characters. They'd probably translate to POP! form pretty well, especially the Doozers

If Sesame Street does well maybe they will do other Jim Henson IPs as well. Though I would expect the Muppets before Fraggle Rock

Yes Fraggle Rock would make for some great pops! I used to love that show.

Fortunately, we already got a slick wave of Muppets Pops! So with Muppets leading the pack, and Sesame Street doing as well as they are, I don't think it's too far fetched to wish for Fraggle Pops.

This was an inquiry/request I made earlier this year. I loved that show and would absolutely love Fraggle Rock Pops!!! A triple pack of the Gorgs (mom, dad & son), the Fraggles, Doozers, Doc and maybe a flocked Sprocket the dog :)

OH my gosh this would be so awesome!! PLEASE PLEASE FUNKO!!! :)

I completely forgot about those, it makes sense that there are out there and came before Sesame Street. Honestly, I just don't see them around much and since they are their own line I don't bump into them when searching PPG.

I would buy Fraggle Rock. I remember watching it on HBO when I small in the early 80's.

I'd seriously just hand Funko my wallet if they made Fraggle Rock Pop!s. Probably the only ones I'd buy three of each from. One to display oob. One in box. And one as a back-up just in case something happens to the first two.

Fraggle Rock was, is, and always will be my favorite show.

Sadly, I think the Fraggle ship has sailed as far as Pop!s go. There was talk of a movie, but that's been "in pre-production" for about ten years now. The brought the show back by airing the episodes on The Hub for a year or so, but they're gone now because very little people watched them on there. There was a new wave of comic books that lasted a couple series, but I believe those have been cancelled now (not 100% on that). And a Doozers show and mobile game was released briefly, but nothing major came of it. Basically, I just don't see there being enough interest in Fraggles for Funko to invest money in completely new sculpts and molds. Really hope we do see them someday, just doesn't seem very likely.
