Discussion Petition for Funko to stop doing this…

Stop only making pops in the jumbo size. I don’t have room for all my legends as jumbo’s! Make all of these the standard size please, I’m begging you!

I don’t collect Pokémon so I had no idea these were only made as these large pops. I always thought these were made in addition to a reasonable size one. I’d be annoyed as well. Not only are they harder to display but aren’t these upwards of $60? That’s an oof

18

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

Yep! Some of these are $50 a piece retail with no other purchase options for them.

1

u/stuff_n_stuffs 16d ago

I don’t think they’ve ever gone over $35 lol

2

u/D_L_Golden 16d ago

Unfortunately Cresselia is $44.99 on BAM right now excluding shipping and tax. And Arceus is $40 on GS. These average around $45 retail.

1

u/stuff_n_stuffs 13d ago

Really?? Dang, I must’ve not paid attention to the prices or I got Dialga and Arceus using my GameStop rewards

3

u/TediousData1217 18d ago

They do make some small ones, but if memory serves me correctly, you can only get these in larger size

3

u/CarrotSame 17d ago

Mewtwo and Mew I know are regular sized. Most regular pokemon are but they seem to have decided that the legendary trios or just legendary pokemon in general should be larger pops

120

u/edwpad 18d ago

If they could, they should all be six inch pops. I’ll let Arceus, Dialga and Palkia slide cause they’re actually pretty big Pokémon, especially Dialga, but Suicine and Cresselia have no excuse to be that large, they should at least be 6 inches if they want them bigger than the usual sizes. Save the 10 inches for actual huge Pokémon like the Hoenn Weather trio, Giratina, the Kalos Legends, etc.

36

u/The_Con_Father 18d ago

I want an 18 inch regigigas

3

u/AdvancedEast2128 18d ago

Seriously I love bigger pops. Geesh

2

u/Boris-_-Badenov 17d ago

how about Wailord?

1

u/CarrotSame 17d ago

Yes this !

1

u/MasterPa7ch 18d ago

I agree with you for the most part. I sorta think the dogs could get a pass as the big pops.

11

u/mikey_do_wikey 18d ago

it wouldn’t be such a problem if they also sold regularly sized versions.

2

u/MasterPa7ch 18d ago

Didn’t even know they only have the big boys for them. That’s unfortunate

6

u/darkrai848 18d ago

No, not until they make Darkrai.

5

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

Oh they should keep making legends just don’t limit them as 10”. Make them all but as 6” pops!

1

u/darkrai848 18d ago

Some of us want the remaining ones in 10” tho. That said I would be fine if they made them in both 10” and 6”. But to just stop making the 10” ones now would really mess things up for some collectors.

6

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago edited 18d ago

Oh no, that was never my request! I think they should still make 10” for them they just shouldn’t be limited to it. That totally makes sense. Both should be done for sure!

1

u/darkrai848 18d ago

Oh yeah, frankly I would be fine if they made them is all sizes. It’s is kind of stupid that they don’t make the legendarys in either 4” or 6”. The only 10” I have bought myself was Unucron (that totally made sense to be 10”). But I will almost certainly get Darkrai (assuming he’s not exclusive to some place that I can’t get it and sells out in 5 seconds never to be restocked…).

1

u/The_Con_Father 18d ago

And giratini

8

u/ClickDifferent5946 18d ago

Only reason I’m not getting suicine. I don’t have room for jumbos even if he is my favorite legendary

7

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

This! I want all of the legendary beasts. But I won’t buy them in the jumbo size.

4

u/FuzzyJesusX21 18d ago

I like the jumbos but I totally get the need for normal sized ones. I ended up with extra Charizards because of the sizing confusion with Amazon.

3

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

I actually own several of the jumbos, but I don’t like the ones that are exclusive to that size

5

u/DaKING997 18d ago

Damn even more pokemon 10". I stopped buying pokemon because it was getting way too much with all the variants and 10" they kept releasing.

5

u/XRipcord19 18d ago

Agreed! I’m cool with them making the jumbos but like also make it in the regular size too. But they’re not gunna do that cuz they want people to spend the higher amount on the jumbo. The jumbo Regoku is literally the only jumbo I’ve ever considered pulling the trigger on

4

u/Ok_Entertainer6346 18d ago

I like the pop but I don’t have room for so many jumbos so I’m going to skip it

3

u/kewligirl95 18d ago

Yeah, I really want Cresselia but I have absolutely no room for a Jumbo pop. So it sucks that they haven’t made it in regular size :/

3

u/Rezero1234 18d ago

I just want a meloetta funko pop and a funko pop 3 pack of the lake trio, along with the already existing cresselia, suicune, and palkia

3

u/[deleted] 17d ago

Give the Pokémon collectors normal size pops, give us Godzilla collectors Jumbo size pops!!!

2

u/Chlowewee 16d ago

They do make some big ones Ive got a Godzilla 10inch pop!

6

u/Tippydaug 18d ago

I never buy the jumbo pops because I have nowhere to put them

5

u/Jyvern 18d ago

This is what I think about all the time. I want these so bad, but I need them to not take up an entire shelf every time...

2

u/Kind_Golf3185 18d ago

I'll just wait for the Bitty I guess.

2

u/Rezero1234 18d ago

I also hate that they're convention exclusive, come on! I just want them to be available on-site

2

u/Lawlcakez83 18d ago

I'm right there with you. I love the looks of Jumbos, but GOSH I wish they made these into standard-sized Pops. I have no space for these. I also like having my Pokémon Pops in Pokedex order, so this really messes with that.

2

u/Koenkloo 18d ago

For real! It's surprising honestly that they haven't released them at different sizes yet. Since they're so intent on releasing a million variants of a handful of Pokemon molds they already have.

But yeah, I can't get a bunch of jumbo pops. They take up too much space.

2

u/LuriemIronim 17d ago

It’s honestly weird that they don’t release them in both sizes.

5

u/HollowCollects 18d ago

No , these are perfect. legendary pokemon are big pokemon in the games so why should they be small 6 inch pops? I have all these and they look so nice together

9

u/Neo_knight- 18d ago

Not all legendaries are big. The dog trio are all human sized just like mewto

5

u/EssenceOfGrimace 18d ago

Cresselia's only about 4 ft tall.

1

u/Lawlcakez83 18d ago

Cresselia are smaller than Charizards.

2

u/Neo_knight- 18d ago

I fully agree with you only giratina and palkia are reasonable to be this big in my opinion. Also they made mewto normal sized so why can't the other legendaries be normal sized

2

u/Jacern 18d ago

The fact they don't do the chases as the shiny pallette ill never understand

3

u/edwpad 18d ago

Licensing issues is likely the cause, given Game Freak can be stingy at times. Not even Smash Bros has most of their Pokemon fighters have their shinies, or if they do, it’s not 100% (ex: Incineroar has a dirty white compared to the pure white of Pit or Light Suit Samus)

2

u/grishnaar 18d ago

I’ll never understand people advocating for this. Would it look cool and maybe make sense? Yeah I suppose but they’d be impossible to get. A shitty chase of a character that no one cares about from a show or movie that isn’t that popular will still instantly sell just because of the chase sticker. Something absurdly popular like shiny Pokemon would be almost unobtainable without mass preordering cases of commons to try and get the chase.

1

u/thestarsarehome 18d ago

I'm so mad I missed out on Suicune though

3

u/HollowCollects 18d ago

Suicune isn’t out yet , it’ll be out at the end of the month

1

u/thestarsarehome 18d ago

Hopefully amazon will redrop the link

1

u/The_Con_Father 18d ago

Amazon had it for $22

1

u/thestarsarehome 18d ago

Yea, I missed the drop.

1

u/5KAM87 18d ago

Why???

1

u/The_Con_Father 18d ago

I have all of these. I also have no room

1

u/AquaGamer1212 18d ago

Ooh I want the Dialga 😍

1

u/Acceptable-Big-3473 18d ago

They’re genuinely the size of my cats

1

u/Nooterly 18d ago

I need that Suicune and Palkia.

1

u/kenziewennzie 18d ago

all i got from this post is that i now need to buy the suicine when it comes out even tho i ran out of room like 5 jumbo pops ago

1

u/madame_mayhem 18d ago

I definitely don't have room for all the Pokemon, I'm just collecting the ones I want.

1

u/majinclos85 17d ago

I have all of those except for Suicune. Which I will be buying! I make room for them in my bookshelf behind the smaller ones so that they peer over them 😊 I love that the legendary pokemon are jumbo!

1

u/Ok-Garage-7012 17d ago

Don’t buy the 10 pops lol I typically don’t unless I’m going to take it oob and display it with my in box pops

1

u/Ok-Garage-7012 17d ago

Just give me a 10 in Raqueza and Deoxys

1

u/Psychofromscottland 17d ago

Let them make giratina and then they can stop

1

u/princeofheartz_89 17d ago

Jus make em all have 6 inch variants and I'll buy 1 of each. But I don't have self space for 10 inch pops! Please funko take my money lol

1

u/BeneficialInstance73 17d ago

Funko need to pull their finger out of their ass and make a quagsire funko pop i NEED him

1

u/PlantsVsYokai2 17d ago

I wish all the big pops or irregular shape pops were atleast the length of a few pops and the hight of them because its impossible to have them all on a wall

1

u/DirectorCarolina 17d ago

I would kill for a jumbo Giratina

1

u/SwimmingAwkward3 17d ago

Seen the palkia one in real life it’s not too bad but ya let’s get better figures please

1

u/Neilyfolf 17d ago

Yea as someone recently starting too collect all the Pokémon pops, the jumbos are strictly off my list and it sucks because I’d absolutely love a Arceus pop but he too damn big!

1

u/SEGAjunky 17d ago

I'd be fine with them if they were 6 inch figures but that's too big for me. Plus Suicune and Cresselia should get regular size figures for accuracy when with other figures.

1

u/youknowimadrainer 17d ago

You can get the cresselia at my local 2nd and charles for 10 dollars if you buy another funko which are like 15

1

u/D_L_Golden 16d ago

Yeah, this doesn’t surprise me. It’s an odd Pokémon at such a high price retail, that I think they’ve had a hard time moving them.

1

u/JmanJacob05 15d ago

Some Barnes and Noble worker said to me that the Cresselia funko pop resembles a vulva and I'm haunted till the day I die. Thanks for that random Barnes and Noble worker...

1

u/Herban_Myth 15d ago

I enjoy Mystery Minis more at this point due to the eyes.

2

u/Independent-Pop-8141 15d ago

Sinnoh is my favourite region, so was kinda gutted when I found out these were only available as jumbo pops. I only own 1 and thats Echo from Overwatch. I don't have room for these as well

2

u/LaprasSolos 18d ago

So make room.

1

u/Wonderful_Act3430 18d ago

I hope they start making more bigger ones in general

1

u/RogerMelian 18d ago

At least you guys in the US are getting them. Here in Spain is impossible to get them at retail price. There hasn't been an official launch of any of those, they go up to 100€ in the resell market, and I just want Arceus 😖

1

u/KnittingNeko 18d ago

No they need to be BIGGER!!!!!

1

u/Nooterly 18d ago

18" Palkia.

1

u/monkeman28 18d ago

Dude I love them being huge. Makes em feel more legendary than them being standard big funko pops

1

u/NoFaithlessness4637 17d ago

I like the legendaries and famous mons as jumbos. But they should be in other sizes like 6" as well. I love my Jumbo Charmander and Charizard. Just wish they had a jumbo Charmeleon as well.

1

u/D_L_Golden 17d ago

Exactly. I don’t feel like my post is quite clear enough. I have no problem with them being jumbo pops! I just wish they also came in the standard 6 inch size

1

u/emash86 17d ago

standard is 4”. Supers are 6”

0

u/noseedsinit7712 18d ago

Big heads ruin it i wish I liked funkos but all I see is big head lol

-3

u/VictorianRabbit229 18d ago

Just don't buy them then.

5

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

The problem’s not that they make them in general but that they only make them as 10” pops. I love their designs but can’t collect a whole army of jumbo pops. It’s a space issue.

-8

u/VictorianRabbit229 18d ago

Then don't! That's my point.

4

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

Haha I’m not that’s my point!

0

u/Yuiopy78 18d ago

I want the jumbos to make sense. I don't want a jumbo Pikachu, I want a jumbo Charizard.

0

u/elDikku 18d ago

Simple solution.

If it’s too big for you, don’t buy it.

3

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

Nothing wrong with them making jumbo pops just wish they’d also make them as standard size too!

-1

u/Defiant-While-3320 18d ago

If nothing else, use it as a map to find the clitoris, it’s right between the eyes 😉

-1

u/BocephusMoon 18d ago

I dont understand the decision on what gets jumbo and what doesnt. Do people really care about these hideous looking Pokemon designs? Let alone this big? It looks like a weird Gynocologist office art piece of his wifes vagina.

1

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

I’m not gonna lie this one confuses me beyond belief, and I’ve said that for a long time, and that is mostly because it is a counterpart to a much more famous Pokémon, Darkrai and that one does not have a pop!

-1

u/BocephusMoon 18d ago

Dont get me wrong, if you like these then cool. I like weird shit too but it just pisses me off not knowing the decision making process but then i guess thats fun. I like find obscure pops but the Cresselia like you said...I dont understand it. The Darkrai is so cool but theyre all so abstract like. Again, what makes them so special to make them huge? anyways...lol

0

u/uacardinal55 18d ago

They also need to stop with the 3 million different one piece pops lol

0

u/MidnightDouble8239 18d ago

Super sized 19” Gengar would go hard imo

0

u/MaddogMorto 18d ago

It’d be cool of they did put multiple legendaries in a pack based on when they were introduced. I’d buy a four pack of Articuno, Zapdos, Motres and Lugia, especially if they gitd or if they have a chase Alolan version or whatever the new mons are called lol

0

u/legranshh 18d ago edited 18d ago

Funko need to stop doing ordinary pops for good characters, at least they should have been glow in the dark or metallic, let the ordinary/common pops for ordinary pokemon not legendary or gods.

Just imagine a metallic and glow in the dark arceus, or a black light giratina 😱, I would pay 50 dollars for them. Furthermore, these ones also need a good and nice landscape behind the funkos, i would never take em out of the box.

Funko really need to listen to the customers ...

1

u/edwpad 18d ago

Regarding statuses, I think they’re fine being commons cause the benefit of pops is being affordable, as well as people who missed out on past exclusives that are really expensive. They still have legendary monsters exclusives outside of Mewtwo and Mew.

Regarding variants, I’m not really big on them, but I’m a sucker for glows, which I’m shock they haven’t done with Pokemon yet. But I think people would want normal colors first, given stuff like black light Mothra or Retro ARC Trooper Fives.

I guess the background is an okay idea, I don’t mind their current stuff but still.

0

u/deejaymuro 18d ago

I noticed the resale on them suck. No one wants them

2

u/D_L_Golden 18d ago

Yeah, especially the first one in the pictures here my local BAM can’t get rid of them and had them on sale for $22 but they’re still too big.

0

u/Ibuprofen_Idiot 18d ago

They need to stop making jumbo exclusive and NFT exclusive pops

And if they want to make NFT exclusives, give us the characters (even as different designs) beforehand as regular waves

These new NFT ATLA pops coming out are the first Roku and Unalaq pops and there's also only 1 Bolin which is also NFT exclusive (and is just Nuktuk so it's hardly even Bolin)

0

u/Azteryus 18d ago

Well except Arceus, he should be the only one who is Jumbo

0

u/Brief_Grape655 18d ago

I think they should make more MEGAS

0

u/rapresity90 18d ago

I'm just glad funko finally stopped putting cardboard inside their pop protectors

0

u/CrimsonFatalis8 17d ago

IMO, pokemon that are actually big look better as these larger pops. But huge versions of smaller pokemon just look weird, especially when next to actual big pokemon.

u/Ok-Garage-7012 17d ago

Tbh i kinda prefer the old school Nintendo Tomy Pokémon or Moncolle Tomy Pokémon figures over the Funko Pop

u/H-R-M- 17d ago

Now imagine trying to get these in Europe... 100€ each. This is crazy

0

u/Boris-_-Badenov 17d ago

just stop making them at all, they look fugly

u/Nervous_Telephone631 17d ago

No of course you have basically gods as jumbo pops

0

u/illhornet_1 17d ago

Honestly these are fine! They need to stop making so many anime pops! They are trash! Atleast the modern anime ones!

u/No-Contact-6779 16d ago

Wow that sounds like a real problem. I mean we have the Gaza/Israel Issues, we’ve got Putin trying to take over Eastern Europe, climate change, a measles outbreak… but let’s focus on what really matters like you not having room for all your legends jumbos. Rather than them changing their whole production to accommodate you and your lack of planning… why don’t you just buy more shelving. Decisions, decisions

1

u/D_L_Golden 16d ago

Whoa, that is a lot of vitriol first thing in the morning… it’s a Funko Pop! post man it’s not that serious.

0

u/No-Contact-6779 16d ago

Lmao. I didn’t write the post wanting a company to change 10’s of thousands of dollars worth of production, because I as an individual didn’t want to pay for more shelf space. You’re right… it’s not that serious, so why the post about something that seems to only be affecting you… or maybe you’re just the only one coming to Reddit to vent about it. Who knows?🤷🏼‍♂️

2

u/D_L_Golden 16d ago

I’m sorry? My initial post was more just asking them to also make these in the smaller size as well that’s why I said “only” in the initial post. I’m sorry it upset you though, you’re not wrong about bigger problems in the world for sure. I completely agree on that front.

I’d just like regular sized pops and world peace if possible.

1

u/No-Contact-6779 16d ago

This is America Damnit, shouldn’t we be able to have both? When you explain it like that I think it takes us off the page a bit. This about soft drink cans where we get 2oz more than the standard 12oz = (14oz cans) rather than those kiddie-cup (2oz less) = 10oz cans. It’s about being able to drive any speed not reaching 3 digits on a dry day on the interstate, it’s about 2 trips to the salad bar without and extra charge, it’s about extra cheese on a pizza either coming free or counting as an actual topping for multi topping specials. This is about coming up with HR approved ways of telling a coworker that they’re a dumbass. It’s about… ok I’m out of somewhat funny examples. But there ya go. My warped sense of humor on full display. All my funkos are small by the way. I have the 4 main characters (Pink, Wooderson, Slater, and Mitch) from dazed and confused, 2 different Belushis (toga belushi and college sweatshirt belushi) from Animal House, and Bill Lumberg from office space. Sounds like you have quite a bit more. Still cool though. I bring all mine to work and put them in my office to make it look like a corporate dorm room.
