NOT DEAD POPS!

Postby rowden » Fri Sep 15, 2017 2:06 pm

So often we see POPS! made of famous people after they are dead.
Who wants to see some POPS! made of living people and who do you wanna see?
I would like to see Henry Rollins among others.

Bob Ross, Bruce Lee, and bunch of Rock Pops. I can't think of any others who aren't still with us.

Meanwhile, Conan O'Brien, John Oliver, a TON of athletes, Paul Feig, Stan Lee, all three Rock the Vote Pops, Bryan Fuller, Elvira (she kinda counts), a bunch of OTHER Rock Pops, a bunch of wrestlers, and...I know we hate to include them, but the Duck Dynasty people count...and the Comic Book Men are ALL alive.

Just saying lol

Personally, I'm still on board with the Directors idea. Stephen Spielberg, at least, deserves a Pop.

I agree with you on this.. i don't think funko pick people that pass to make pops of them.. theres why more people that are alive .

Yes to Trent. Dunno how theyd make him look like him and he'd probably never agree. But I would love it. :D

If they still have to be alive, as per the OP's question, you'd only have five options, with two of them not very memorable and perhaps forgotten (Carter and Bush Sr.), two more controversial ones (Clinton and Bush Jr.) and that leaves us with Obama.
It would, however, make for a kickass historical range of figures, and I'd applaud that for sure.

I personally am on board with the movie directors, and perhaps some contemporary authors, too?
Hey there! I'm Corneel, but currently there's nothing of interest in this signature.

Daft Punk
MC Hammer

FDR & Teddy are my two favorite presidents, but in all honestly I would by them all if all 44 presidents. Except trump because he's already got a candidate pop but I don't own one and probably won't lol
