Personally I don't see the point. The Iron Thrones is a bit daft, as is the rose from BatB - and I'm saying that having every other BatB Pop. I'd, personally, feel differently if it was a different line altogether. Like Funko Props or something. But then again, the charm of Funko products is the style of the figures. Personally I wouldn't see it becoming a thing as I don't think they'd sell well. The only one that has is the Iron Throne and that's only really since the last season finished.

I'd love to see the eye of Sauron as a Pop figure. I did enjoy getting the rose from B&tB; scale notwithstanding, it was just the right thing to round out that collection.

I don't know how I feel about non Character Pops. I feel like these should just stay in the realm of action figures. I feel like the Funko Pop relates to certain Pop culture characters.

At the same time they have made a few non character molds such as the Tardis phone booth from Doctor Who and Train Engines for the Harry Potter set.

So I guess it's up in the air but if I had to make a decision to make more non character Pops I would vote against it and stick to characters.

Would the Death Star be considered a ride though? :)


Hey now, let’s not get technical here. ;-) even though I do think you are right in that LOL!


Haha it would be pretty hard to have a pop sit inside the Death Star to make it a legit ride

You’re right. They would literally have to be “in” the death star on this one. What if they made the Pop be the death star and the figure be a mini? Combine to lines into one?

I think it'd look a little weird, but funny, if they had the Emperor, Vader, or Tarkin popping out of the top of the Death Star (no pun intended). It'd also be really cute as a Dorbz Ridez!

I say we just make it the first ten inch pop ride and have all three of them popping out like you suggested.

There's definitely some good stuff out there that would make for cool Pop!s.

Now you might be onto something there sir!!! Cuz the mini would fit so much better inside the Death Star.

Even if they made a 10" Death Star, normal sized Pop would still be too big to fit in there. I think your idea of having a mystery mini would be the best.

I like the mini idea better as well. It would flow better and just look better overall.

Because Funko never made a disproportionate Pop to Ride...cough cough....Slave 1

My original thought was for items to compliment your pop display not really for existing lines like rides, they are already a thing (and yes, I am aware that the Death Star is a space ship/station but that was only a suggestion).

For example, i really liked the idea of the Infinity Gauntlet. Think of how cool that set would look if they all surrounded the Gauntlet with the new Thanos pop behind it.

Ahh ok I see your point now, that would be a whole new line that Funko would have to design a new model to fit into their style. Who knows maybe they will see this and run with your idea somehow :)

If I was a Star Wars fan I would probably look into it. Thankfully I am not and don’t have to worry about this lol!

It's getting so hard to have every single Star Wars stuff since I'm running out of room at home :(
