Here Comes the Kool-Aid Man Funko POP! Figure!

A while back we found out that Funko was readying a new POP! figure based on the iconic Kool-Aid Man, but all we had was a terrible placeholder illustration of the character. Now, the actual figure is starting to turn up, and it looks awesome.

The rotund kids’ drink mascot is perfect in Funko POP! form, his pitcher body filled up with fruity red drink and ice cubes brimming over the top of his head. He looks all ready to bust down the wall bring a cool treat to your other POP! figures and exclaim his classic “OH YEAH!” catchphrase.

You can pre-order the Kool-Aid Man Funko POP! figure from Amazon or Entertainment Earth for $10.99. It’s supposed to ship any day now.

Don’t Bury This Pet Sematary POP! Figure

Stephen King’s Pet Sematary was a scary book as were both of the movies it inspired. Whatever you bury in that that dark place comes back, but what comes back isn’t what you want. Now, Funko has immortalized the evil, resurrected Gage in POP form.

The vinyl action figure comes complete with his very sharp knife all covered in blood to hunt you down and cut you up. He also comes with his undead cat Church. Since cats are already pretty evil, a resurrected cat can’t be any more evil than a cat already is. We’re just going to assume the fangs, yellow eyes, and bloody head are normal for Church.

Entertainment Earth sells both figures in one box for $10.99.

Jon Snow Rides This Game of Thrones Rhaegal POP! Figure

One of the more exciting parts the final season of Game of Thrones so far has been Jon Snow riding on a dragon. Before you get mad about spoilers just realize, the name of this toy itself is a spoiler, so don’t blame me. You literally have to stay off the internet if you aren’t caught up.

The Funko POP! figure has Snow mounted up on Rhaegal, complete with a frowny face. I assume the frown is because the dragon has lots of stabby bits, and is really hard to hang onto. Though death from falling off a dragon might be better than joining the zombie army.

The figure is up for preorder at Entertainment Earth right now for $29.99. It will ship starting this November.

Kool-Aid Man POP! Figure Coming Soon: OHHH YEAH!

Growing up, at least every other time someone in my circle of friends drank Kool-Aid, they would run face first into the wall yelling “OH YEAH!” We were never able to bust through any walls, but that didn’t stop us from trying and incurring mom wrath on the regular. Funko has a new Kool-Aid man POP! vinyl figure in the works that you can toss at your wall all you want. I don’t see it busting through either.

The toy will launch in July and will sell for $10.99. You can pre-order yours now on Entertainment Earth. Thinking about this also made me nostalgic for some of those vintage commercials, so check out a compilation below.

Freddie Mercury Wembley 1986 POP! Figure Will Rock You

I can remember back in the day, one of the older kids that rode the bus home played a Queen album constantly on his little tape player and the song of choice was “Another One Bites the Dust,” only we all sang it “Another One Rides the Bus” each time someone got on. One of the best Queen performances ever, if you ask some folks, was back in 1986 when Queen and Freddie Mercury climbed on stage at Wembley and rocked out.

Mercury had his famous stache, white shirt, white pants with red stripe, and that gold drum major jacket, and he sang THE SHIT out of some famous Queen tracks. Fans of Queen and/or Funko POP! figures will want to shell out the cash on this version of Mercury decked out in that Wembley outfit.

Entertainment Earth has the Pop! figure up for pre-order for $10.99 with deliveries starting later this month, and you can check out the full set of Queen POP! figures here.

Funko Twinkie the Kid POP! Figure Isn’t the Last Twinkie on Earth

One of my all-time favorite movies is Zombieland. It taught me that in a zombie apocalypse, cardio will be very important and Twinkies will be used as currency. Growing up I ate my share of Twinkies. And while I was more of a Ding Dong sort, I do remember Hostess’ lasso-twirling Twinkie the Kid, the snack cake’s anthropomorphic mascot.

If you want to relive a bit of your youth and have a spot on your shelf for another Funko POP! collectible, Twinkie the Kid is the ticket.

Depending on your luck, you’ll either get Twinkie the Kid with a brown hat, brown gloves, a Hostess blue bandana, and brown boots, or a rare chase edition with white hat, white gloves, polkadot bandana, and star-embellished red boots.

Each Twinkie will set you back $10.99 and they’ll be shipping starting this October. You can pre-order the Twinkie the Kid POP! figure from Entertainment Earth now.

Rugrats Chuckie Pop! Figure Will Break Everything

I used to watch Rugrats way back in the day before I had kids, and thought there was no way kids can actually get into that much trouble. I was so wrong. When my son was barely walking he managed to get spaghetti sauce and paint the walls with it. You couldn’t turn your back on that kid for a second, he was like a little Houdini who would escape anything you trapped him in.

Chuckie and his pals from Rugrats were the same way. They were always getting into something. I’ve often thought Nickelodeon’s red-headed Chuckie was based at least in part on the knife-wielding maniac Chuckie.

If you are a Rugrats fan, you will want this Funko POP! Vinyl figure of Chuckie. It’s guaranteed not to mess up your house (or kill you in your sleep.) You can pre-order the figure on Amazon for $10.99, and it’s expected to start shipping around June 12.

Game of Thrones Night King Figure Glows, Won’t Raise the Dead

We haven’t seen much of the Night King in Game of Thrones, but he’s definitely one of the coolest villains that the series has featured. I liked the way he raised all the dead Wildlings to add to his army, as Jon and crew stood on their boat in shock.

ThinkGeek has an exclusive glowing Night King figure that is cute, but creepy too. He’s blue when the lights are on, but when you turn the lights off he glows green.

It measures 3.75″ tall, so he’ll look perfect alongside your Funko Pop GoT toys too. You can add the Night King to your collection for $9.99 (USD).

Funko Futurama POP Vinyl Figures: Bite My Shiny Plastic Ass

Futurama fans can now get their hands on a set of Funko POP vinyl figures of characters from the show. You can’t buy up the whole crew, but a few of the main characters are here.

You can get Bender, complete with a bottle of beer and his shiny metal ass, Fry, Leela, and the Robot Devil. Bender was always my favorite character.

Each of the characters stands about 3.75-inches tall and have the beady black eyes (or eye) that you expect from a Funko POP action figure. ThinkGeek has each of the four characters for $9.99 each. Hopefully, we’ll get more of the characters soon. The world needs a Funko POP Zoidberg.

Big Trouble in Little China Pop Vinyl Figures: The Check is in the Mail

Kurt Russell has been on some of my favorite ’80s flicks. He played Snake Plissken in Escape from New York. He also played in one of my favorite ’80s action flicks, Big Trouble in Little China. I love that movie and have seen it a zillion times.

Funko has just launched some sweet Pop vinyl figures of the main characters from John Carpenter’s cult classic. You have Jack Burton, Lo Pan, Thunder, Gracie Law, Rain, and Lightning. Jack comes with his machine gun.

Each of the action figures is 3.75-inches tall and is officially licensed. You can pick up all of them at ThinkGeek for $9.99 each. I have to watch this movie again tonight after seeing these. I live by Jack Burton’s creed: “I never drive faster than I can see. Besides that,it’s all in the reflexes.”
