The glowy Pop goodness thread :-)

I don’t have many glowy Pop!s, but I like how the kingdom hearts Tron Pops look.

Postby **KMFH11** » Fri Dec 22, 2017 1:16 pm

The Tron pops look super cool!

Postby **runtodere34** » Fri Dec 22, 2017 1:17 pm

I love the tron ones and so does my boy

I have yet to get a pop where i like the glow but soon maybe

Postby **Kiners_funatic** » Fri Dec 22, 2017 5:25 pm

I put my gitd pops in a bat case too. Currently I'm looking for a bigger case because a ringwraith,a ballrog, and a all
might can't fit in there.

Anyone removed paint from Pops before? I tried Isopropynol and Paint Thinner but neither had an effect.

Yeah neither of those will touch the paint Funko uses. Acetone works better, but man it would be a huge job stripping Balrog with all its nooks and crannies. I stripped a Pop head once for a repaint, even doing just a head took a lot of elbow grease.

Bwhaaahaa! Inside joke there for the proto collectors

I forget who here has the glow proto, if I remember I should bug them for a light-out pic but it looks like it would be pretty amazing as the whole thing (except the wings) is molded in glow vinyl!

The glow on the Cupcake chase is actually really nice. I had no idea it glowed until I had had it for like 3 weeks lol

. And it reacts REALLY well with UV/blacklight

I scored a couple really cool Kidrobot glowing aliens..but don’t think I ended up with any new glowing pieces of Funko for Christmas! Hope Santa was good to you :-)

This was a great week for glow releases, I ordered GITD Kylo, plus Predator & Vader Dorbz!

Postby **Jonny0boy** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 4:19 pm

GITD Bob Ross would be great. I Pre order 2 DIY Bob Ross. I'll do GITD on that pop

Here are the metallic glow chases. Does anyone know how the reg ones glow?

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Mon Jan 08, 2018 5:09 pm

Have you guys seen the glow pics going around of the two Black Panther exclusives?? Need them!

Those are definitely some wicked glows!! Must haves for sure!! :compress:

Postby **fuzzba11** » Tue Jan 09, 2018 11:21 pm

...and don't ever speak to me or my son again!

Got the Toys R Us Predator, and while he's very UV reactive, only the green blood splatter actually glows. (the Pop is custom)

I am not a big black panther fan, but I need the two glowy black panther exclusives.

I got the Target exclusive Holographic Kylo Ren today. The glow is great on him!! No edits and no filters on this pic!

Here are some pics of the glow on the upcoming Agents of Shield Ghost Rider:

Here's a pic in the light:

Postby **treswright** » Wed Jan 10, 2018 2:29 pm

OK OK it's not really upcoming, but man I wish they would make it! I took a Ghost Rider Pop Ride (glow version) and cut it up, adapted the flames to the F&F Charger Pop Ride and stuck the rider in to replace Dom. I also installed LEDs in everything to light it up, I love how it turned out! Funko needs to make it! And make it gloooowwwwwww :-D

Postby **AnaBanana** » Wed Jan 10, 2018 2:30 pm

Cool idea.
They reused the Charger from Fast & Furious Dom Pop Ride.
NEEDS MORE FLAME!

Edit: I would have believed it if it was real. They did that with Darryl's Chopper -> Logan. ;-)

Luckily the Charger in F&F and in Agents of Shield is the exact same model so it made for an easy swap. And both have similar blowers and injector scoops!

Edit: I would have believed it if it was real. They did that with Darryl's Chopper -> Logan.

Thank you, I was going for something that looked like genuine Funko

Well, except all the lights! Yeah Logan's Chopper is the same mold with some minor changes (removed the saddlebags and added a wrap on the back). The same mold was used for the Ghost Rider bike too.

The regular ones are actually very similar but easier to make glow IMO. My boy has both regs and the chase Sark. We have a heck of a time getting the chase Sark to glow but the reg glows super easy.

Never get tired of seeing stunning Funko glows!! Great flowers guys and gals!! :happy2:
