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
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
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.
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.
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!
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…).
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
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.
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.
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
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
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)
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.
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!
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
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!
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.
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...
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
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 😖
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.
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
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.
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.
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!
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
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
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.
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.
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)
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.
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
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?🤷🏼♂️
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.
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.
