I also hope we get a flying Bugsy variant. Glad to see this line doing so well and look forward to more to come.

I saw this as well and honestly not sure how I feel about the subtle change of color for fall. I mean I do have all the monsters and part of me thinks I should just get the new ones, but I kinda wish funko did something a little more spectacular with the first wave. If they did a different color glow for each of the first wave monsters, now that would have been spectacular. Tumblebee- yellow glow, butterhorn- orange glow, snuggle-tooth- blue glow, bugsy wingnut- purple glow, Chester mcfreckle- red glow, pickelz- green glow
You are free to dislike the new wave of pop monsters, but when Funko announced them back in ECCC 2017, one of the very first things they told us about these guys was that their variants would be seasonal based, and they’ve stuck to their word, so I don’t know if you should really be disappointed in them.

What did you think of the two new characters found in the new Wetmore area? I like the Axolotl one.

I haven't seen a picture of the second one, but the axolotl guy is super cute!

I never said I was "disappointed" or "disliked" the new wave of monsters. I just simply said I wasn't sure how to feel about the subtle changes in the color. Yes, you are right funko did mention they would be seasonal based and they have stuck to their word. I mean don't get my wrong I love funko and I personal love the wetmore forest monsters, so no need to take it out of context. I just thought it would be pretty cool to have gitd monsters, after all funko loves adding glow to many pops as well as making lots of pops in chrome, so why not this line. That's all I was saying, just personal opinion

I agree about preferring GITD or some other feature. I just really like the original colors of the monsters so color variations aren't needed for my collection. But I love the line as well so I like seeing whatever they plan on doing with it.

Just need these now. Tumblebee is still my favorite, even in a different color. And this palette might end up being my favorite.
If the original was summer, winter was snow flocked, and fall are these colors, I wonder what spring would be?
Probably pastel/Easter colors, that’s what I’d be guessing.

I would also like to see GITD monsters. I personally think the GITD would be better than the regular colors. Definitely not chrome! Time will tell! Will probably end up with every possible combination and 10 more we don't even know.
Wish I could have been there today. Can’t wait to see it all!
. Happy hunting and collect what you love Funatics!

Oh my. I love him! He's like a little shaggy dog. Can't tell what his body shape is, but he reminds me of like Benji..if Benji were a monster.
(those are mushrooms on the sides not floppy ears)

They did such an amazing job, I really didn't want to leave. I only picked up a shirt and some buttons, but I'm definitely going to get more on my next visit!
. I hope its sometime this year seeing as they showed some announced monsters in the new section. I also can't wait for the Axolotl looking pop.

Obviously, their looking to develop an IP into their very own Paw Patrol (from Spin Master) or GI Joe/Transformers (from Hasbro) but I'm not sure how that will work without more vocal engagement for kids. The animation is beautiful no doubt and the idea looks beautiful, so hopefully they join with a network and launch a proper show at some point to really expand this universe.
Now I keep thinking of how each character would sound...

I saw pics of that Goat monsters and I instantly fell in love. I can't wait for them to reveal the next wave

Me too! I feel really greedy because as soon as they reveal one monster, I just want more! Lol They also had some SUPER size plushies in place of the statues in the original wetmore section. I wonder if they're going to sell those one day too.

My wife and I have the full set of Jumbo Plushies (first wave, regular colors) and I would love to see even bigger versions of them!

There are a few shows on Netflix(Shark and Ziggo or something) where the characters don’t speak, they just use grunts, gasps and screams to express they way they feel. I’m sure it would work well with these guys.

Good to know, thanks for the info - I wouldn't be surprised if Wetmore Forest becomes a show on cable/streaming platform within the next 365 days

They look so good OOB! Butterhorn or Chester have to be my favorite from the Fall line.

I know we would watch it! Even if it didnt have words haha, and we dont even have kids

Also saw the plush keychains in some toy fair pics. I love the wetmore line!
