Having doubles already in wave 2 is pretty lame. Having 2 Kaepernicks but no Cam Newton or Kuechly? I could name at least 50 more players more deserving than a single Kaepernick.

As someone who pretty much dropped their lifelong love of the 49ers solely due to the asshatness that is Colin Kaepernick.....oh, and in their stupid new black uniforms as well? Colin, you don't deserve to play on the same team as Montana and Young. You cancer.

Very disappointing second wave. Instead of expanding into major markets like Baltimore and the Jets half of New York, they did re-paints of players from series 1. How they keep neglecting the best CB in the league in Darrelle Revis is astounding.

That's how I feel. Patiently waiting for a NYJ POP.

If I were Funko I'd make sure the player I'm making for a certain team has tenured there for at least 4 years or has a big long term contract. I hate that they keep making these high pick unproven rookies.

Man I'd love to see the Bears stuff it down the packers throats later this season. It won't happen, but I'd love it.

Regardless of how anyone feels about the team it's absurd that there hasn't been a Forte pop in either series. Besides the fact that Bears merch sells all over the country, he's one of the few really talented players they've got, he's been on the team forever and, unlike cutler, people actually like him. Makes no sense at all.

Good stuff. I wanted more alternate covers but I was hoping for a few more new players. No Edelman for the Pats yet, for example.

For those who missed it, three new figures not listed in wave 2:

Hopefully they do that for other teams as well: 3-packs sold at their stadium. Patriots, for example, could be Edelman, white jersey Gronk and a third player.

Over the moon that we're getting wave 2 and particularly pleased to get Roethlisberger, Romo, OBJ and I don't mind some of the variants in particular green jersey Rodgers but a little disappointed not to get a few more new players. I would have thought Cam Newton was a lock and even Dalton, Flacco and Revis as well (fingers crossed for wave 3). Obviously the likes of Brady, Rodgers, Peyton, Lynch, Wilson would be big sellers so they would get included again but Kaepernick must have sold real well to get a variant. Obviously the decision on who to include was made months ago, if it was made now I'd like to think we'd see Newton, Dalton, Julio Jones.

Legends of any sport would be unlikely due to licensing but I'll be making a series of NFL Legends customs very soon!

Bumping this thread to express my hatred toward this disappointment of a second wave.
First off, as a Falcons fan, I would like to ask why in the hell there is no Julio Jones (AKA The best receiver in the league)??? Devonta Freeman definitely would not have been a name that came up whenever Funko was discussing which players to make, but seeing how he is leading the league in rushing and rushing TD's, seems like he would make a great choice currently. And let me just throw in Matt Ryan because he is a recognizable player and great QB, unlike Colin Kaepernick or any of the rookies of the first wave.

Second, same players but alternate uniforms should not count as a 'second wave'. If anything, Funko should have made chases in the first series of these players with these uniforms. Granted I am sure the fans of these teams are happy, but there are WAY more unhappy fans of teams that didn't get players made.

Finally, I would just like to list a few big name players that should have been made:
QB: Carson Palmer, Andy Dalton, Cam Newton, Derek Carr, Nick Foles, Joe Flacco
RB: Jamaal Charles, Matt Forte, LeSean McCoy, Todd Gurley
WR/TE: Steve Smith, Antonio Brown, AJ Green, Amari Cooper, Antonio Gates, Jason Witten
Defense: Darrelle Revis, Jason Pierre-Paul, Ndamukong Suh, Josh Norman

While I do like Beckham Jr, Roethlisberger, Winston, Mariota and Romo, there was such a great opportunity to do more and Funko blew it on repaints.
