An Exclusive Battle Damaged Wolverine Funko Pop! Is Being Released Today

PlayStation followed up on the success of 2023's Game of the Year contender Spider-Man 2 by turning some of its main characters into Funko Pops.

Miles, Kraven, Venom, and a Funko Pop recreation of Peter in his Symbiote suit will all drop on Funko's official site at 12:30 pm EST today (May 17, 2024).

Marvel has spent the last 16 years bringing some of its most iconic comic book characters to life, introducing them to millions more people than ever knew of them in the comics through the MCU's movies and TV shows. Odds are you'd not heard much, if anything, about characters like Ant-Man, Captain Marvel, and Drax before the MCU. Particularly Drax and the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy who shot to stardom thanks to their first movie. Fast forward a decade and Groot is now well-loved enough to have an entire range of his own Funko Pops drop all at the same time.

Pokemon sidestepped its regularly scheduled slate of Funko Pops to release a Cresselia figure at C2E2 this year. It now looks set to do something similar during this year's San Diego Comic-Con, taking place at the end of July, as another rare Pokemon will seemingly be getting the Funko Pop treatment at the event. Cresselia and the many other Pokemon to have already been turned into Pops will be joined by Arceus, and a first look at the figure has already been shared online.

Barbie has been around for 65 years, but you wouldn't know by looking at her. One of the few advantages of plastic taking a very long time to deteriorate is Barbie looks as shiny and new now as she did when first introduced to the masses in 1959. Even more so actually since new dolls have replaced the old ones continuously ever since. Particularly now following on from the success of 2023's Barbie movie. Barbie's reach has extended beyond dolls alone in the toy world too as Funko has revealed three new 65th anniversary figures.

Happy Saturday, and happy new day. Another collection of words for fans to group together in random ways. Today's categories aren't too hard to get through, but we definitely had a few of the misdirections fool us.
