Do Vinyl Idolz warrant a Dream List?

Postby Jezter » Thu May 05, 2016 10:48 am

I don't know a lot about Vinyl Idolz yet, does Funko plan on coming out with a lot more, or is it a very slow process with these? I ask, because there are obviously a ton of different ones I'd love to own. Not knowing the speed at which new licenses will be released, I was wondering if it would be fun to have a Dream list for these?

If not, then I'd just like to say if any of these were released, I would get them, especially if they stay under $30.
Ghost Rider, Wolverine, Predator, The Flash, William Wallace, Freddy Krueger, The Crow, the 10th Doctor, Sam, Dean, Crowley and Castiel, classic Superman, Spock and many many more, lol.

Thoughts?

Funko announced Vinyl Idolz around the same time they announced Dorbz and Vinyl Vixens, and I was really rooting for the Idolz to be the ones that took off the most. The size, quality, unique style, and phenomenal price tag made them my most anticipated new line of Funko figures.

Unfortunately, they definitely seem to be coming out at a snail's pace. I honestly think this has something to do with the franchises they chose to focus on at launch, specifically Seinfeld without three of the four big stars. If they want this line (which is filled to the brim with potential) to really take off, they need to release a lot more, and give two or three a "chase" variant to keep interest piqued. Basically, give the Idolz the tender loving care that they're giving Dorbz.

There are countless characters I'd love to see given the Idolz treatment! A Series of Unfortunate Events is one that comes to mind, and I'm not-so-patiently awaiting Young Frankenstein, Breaking Bad, and Scott Pilgrim!

I'd definitely love to see more Idolz, specifically Marvel and Ninja Turtles. I'm a big fan of the unique look and for the price, I'd love to add a few more to the collection.

I've seen the artists other mock-ups and they're amazing. The ones I totally love (but will never happen) variations on David Bowie (Jareth and a few Ziggy variations) and the one they did of Nick Cave. Won't happen but I can dream.

I've kinda been wondering if they're even still making these. I know I just saw Stan Lee at my LCS, and I know they were supposed to be releasing Dawn of Justice and American Psycho...but is that it? They released a ton of them all at once, and then I haven't seen any other new releases in what seems like forever.

That being said, Ferris Bueller...all day...every day!

Ain't nothing wrong with a dream list. Characters really work well in this vinyl style. Along with the Star Wars one, I would like to see Jack Sparrow in this style!

I'm getting nervous we won't see more of these soon, and Funko seems to be pretty quiet about them. Someone needs to bug them on Twitter and see if more are getting made, lol.

So far I only have Stan Lee and only want Superman of those that exist in stores or online, but there are so many more I'd happily budget in if they made them.
