One of my absolute favorite sets is the Labyrinth set. There is a ton of detail, bit the just sat around for a long time.

It's got a really cool retro look to it, the orange helmet looks great and the rest of the pop is metallic paint. I thought that pop would get a bit more love than it seemed to

This pop is really cool, wasn't expecting it to be so unpopular. It's still up on Target.com too

the banner and hulk collector corp two pack is underappreciated and awesome in my opinion.

Absolutely love the jack-o-latern bucket she's carrying in her hand! This pop is just all around awesome. I feel like max gets underappreciated because there are so many stranger things exclusive pops that maybe overshadow her. But, this is easily my favorite stranger things pop.

Couldn't agree more! Always thought this and Vampire Bob flew too low under the radar! Both pops go well together, especially this month! :laughing6:

I think Powerline is a little under rated. Growing up in the 90s I must've watched, 'A Goofy Movie' 100 times. Easily one of my favorite childhood movies. I remember thinking Powerline was so cool, and wanting to be him. So when I saw the pop was finally getting made I couldn't wait to have it. Doesn't seem like as many people in the community felt the same way, haha. It's ok though, I have mine high on my shelf and he'll be a grail to me.

The value is in the eyes of the beholder! Keep collecting what ya love ;-)

I dont have very many TWD Pops on my wish list but this is one. Great pop!

Not sure if there's some recency bias, but I feel that the Venomized Marvel Pops need more love. These are AMAZING designs!

I agree, I think this one is really great as well. Although, I may be bias as I'm a fan of both Halloween and Stranger Things

Also D.Va with her mech suit and LOC Aquaman with wave. I don't even collect those lines but grabbed the pops because they look so cool.

Completely agree with you. I love hoggle and the detail they have done. That’s my favourite part of the pops. Trying to find every little detail like Luna lovegood having the pumpkin earrings in the pop with glasses. Little details make all the difference

So much yes! Love twisted metal. They need to do the other characters and make sweet tooth’s ice cream truck!

Audrey ll is amazingly detailed for a POP!

The Jafar Dorbz I think is very detailed and overlooked as well.

Mcc spider man. Just love the action pose.

I think a few fantastic beasts pops, so much detail on the creatures

That line is great. I just did an Occamy drawing and took the Occamy out of the box for a picture, so much detail throughout the entire Pop.

I wish they'd do an updated Michael Myers using the mask they have on this one! It's so much more accurate and spooky than the OG Michael!

A new and improved Michael Myers would be amazing. I'm definitely cool with that idea

Maybe we'll get one with the success of the new movie? That would certainly be cool!

Star Lord is extremely underappreciated!

Postby **LakerSpartan117** » Sat Oct 13, 2018 1:25 pm

This is an easy one for me. One of the POPs that I see no on ever talk about other than say that it's eerie because of its design is from one of my favorite shows, Twin Peaks, and that's Laura Palmer in the Body Bag. The fact that it's so accurate of what transpired in the intro of the show makes it such a treasure. Not to mention the release of this POP was "controversial" because it depicted a sensitive moment in the show and when you know what had happened to her character before she ended up in that bag, you begin to feel worse. But despite that I still feel that is an under appreciated POP because of how it showed that Funko's artists aren't afraid to go that extra mile in detail, and I appreciate that!

The killer croc and scarecrow impopsters. Both have awesome detail and the concept is cool.

Definitely, I like that line...it's fun.

I think they may have done better though if they weren't just repaints of Batman. If they had done "what if" versions for Joker, Scarecrow, Croc, etc...unique sculpts of what they would look like if they were to somehow take up the mantle of the Bat. I think those would have been really popular (like the Venomized Pops).

Agreed! I really like the idea of unique sculpts to go along with each of the impopsters! You could totally give the Batman Scarecrow a Scythe or the Penguin Batman an Umbrella to just bring it the extra mile!

100% agree. This is one of, if not my favorite Funko sculpts eve. I think I have like 5-6 in my house just because I get so excited when I see them pop up for sale. lol

I just can’t help myself.

Postby **MrSmileyFace** » Wed Nov 14, 2018 7:04 am

A lot of great answers. I think an unappreciated pop is the suicide squad’s Deadshot.

Here’s why.
This is basically a Will Smith pop and he’s a top class actor and celebrity. Deadshot was the main character in the movie. But among the pops from that line, Harley Quinn and the Joker dominated. And the Joker with Jared Leto had a smaller role in the film.
Suicide squad 2 will once again have Deadshot as the lead character but still won’t have Love if another pop is made
