Pop Icons

Postby KingoftheHolt » Tue Nov 03, 2015 9:20 am

I had this idea last night and I think its too good to not share. A line of Pops of Famous actors and the like. Call it POP Icons. People like James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin, People who are very face reconignizable

I like the idea. But they would need to do some from other era's as well.

I could go for a Maryilin Monroe pop tho without hesitation. Also will need Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder.. without them this series is severely lacking. :)

I LOVE THIS!!!!! It would allow them to do so many different people under one tittle.
Some I would buy:
The Three Stooges
Marilyn Monroe (although i cringe at the amount of exclusives they could do)
James Dean
Bob Hope
Richard Pryor
Abbott and Costello
The Marx Brothers
Walt Disney
Thomas Edison
Tesla

Could it be expanded to Political Figures? With an election year coming up they could add JFK, MLK, Regan, Obama, Ike, Bill Clinton, Lincoln
Okay, if you want to add glitter to that glue you're sniffing, that's fine, but don't dump your whackadoo all over us. We'd rather not step in it.

Oh, man, if this line were expanded to include historical figures and artists I'd be all over that. I mean, how cool would it be to have figures of Carl Marx or Martin Luther King Jr., or any of the US Presidents? How many famous painters, writers, and filmmakers could be included? The possibilities are endless!! And what if this started to include Rides as well? Wilbur and Orville Wright with their Wright Flyer? YEEESSS

I was hoping someone already started this topic! With all the Pops they do of actors and celebrities it about time for some classic movie stars and celebrities. I would love to see a Marx Brothers wave or even a Three pack!
