WINTER WONDERLAND FUNKO POPS!!

Funko Pop just announced a few holiday items coming this winter!

... and I for one can't wait!!

Along with R2-D2 they also announced C-3P0, Boba Fett, Darth Vader, and Stormtrooper for the Star Wars line up. It doesn't appear like any of these are going to be diamond, flocked or chase pops. However, usually when these pops drop it really is just for the holidays and then they disappear! So, make sure you snag these up while you can. Of course, Zero Collectibles will have these available on our stream and through the ROCO subscriptions (small plug, lol).

At first glance these seem kind of like they are just thrown together. From a far they look kind of crappy. Until you actually take a look and see the detail they went into on these pops. It's actually pretty brilliant! take Darth Vader for example. He has coal for his eyes, a carrot going down his mask to represent his nose, sticks for arms (they even have him with the choking hand...YES!) and the face detail is simply awesome! Not to mention the Santa like belt and his amazing cape! Of course, the Star Wars logo is on the bottom of the snow man Vader. Even the detail in the "snow" itself is pretty detailed. It has a crystalized like look to represent the snow, and dimples in the snow to bring the effect to life.

All in all, I would say Funko did an amazing job with these pops! Especially when you consider these are probably just like previous years and will only be available for a short while. Zero Collectibles will have them on their stream and in the ROCO boxes when they become available, hopefully this Christmas.

Although on our wholesale site the release date says 1/30/2023, hopefully we don't have to wait until the new year, but if we do, they will be worth the wait!

The other Pops are also heavily detailed. In an effort to not type out every detail on them Boba has a wooden stick gun, C-3P0 with his helmet of carrots, they actually made the Stormtrooper look angry with sticks and coals. I can't say it enough, the detail they truly put into these is nothing short of amazing. Super excited to collect all 5!

They also have a couple other Winter Wonderland items coming soon!

Winter Funko Soda's, including Holiday Groot (15,000 pieces), Santa Jack from The Nightmare Before Christmas (18,000 pieces), Holiday Stitch with and without Scrump (15,000 pieces), The Grinch with and without Max (12,500 pieces) and the Misfit Elephant from Rudolph (12,500 pieces)

They also have Mariah Carey and the Merry Christmas album Funko Pop. Which would be a nice winter addition to the recent line ups of albums that have surfaced. Which is actually kind of cool considering this was her 4th best-selling album at 5.4 million albums sold. It's also pretty cool that she broke Spotify's single day Spotify record back on Christmas Eve 2020 with 17.223 million streams with 'All I Want for Christmas Is You'. Considering the album came out 26 years before that in 1994, that's pretty amazing. The album definitely ranks in the top charts for Christmas Albums, although, for me the best is still Elvis and his Christmas album. Although I did just watch Elvis on HBO so maybe I'm biased at the moment lol.

Overall, pretty satisfied with the 1st release of winter Funko items coming soon!
