The Marvel slate is looking a little barren in 2024 when compared to other years as of late, and that's probably a good thing. Between TV shows on Disney Plus and MCU blockbusters not making as much as they used to, a year in which there isn't as much Marvel content may well make more casual fans hungry for what's still to come. That said, there will still be some new Marvel stuff in 2024, and two of its biggest upcoming projects already have their own Funko Pops.
Comfortably the biggest thing Marvel has got going on in 2024 is Deadpool 3. If anything is capable of kickstarting the MCU's box office numbers, a movie in which the merc with a mouth is incorporated into its multiverse is what's going to do it. Not to mention Hugh Jackman returning as Wolverine. No word yet on whether the iconic blue and yellow look Jackman will sport in the movie will be Funko-fied, but the star of the threequel is getting seven new Pops.
Since Deadpool 3 won't be here until the summer, there's no way of knowing if these new looks will be ones we see in the movie. Whether we do or not, they're all pretty amusing, and now I need a shelf in my house dedicated to Deadpool figures. You can grab the one that puts the anti-hero in lederhosen, have him dressed as a park ranger, or my personal favorite, bowling Deadpool complete with a ball modeled after his own head.
Deadpool does it all, and that includes bowling. Proving he also looks good in just about anything, this Pop! has him in brightly-colored bowling shoes and a ball modeled after his own head.
Not a part of the MCU but still generating a lot of excitement is X-Men '97. A reboot of the animated series from the 1990s coming to Disney Plus in 2024, and it's also getting its own Funko Pops. Four of them so far, all of them iconic mutants that will return in animated form this year sporting the same looks that they did 25 years ago, and will again in the rebooted show. Gambit, Cyclops, Magneto, and Bishop, all available now for $15 each through the official Funko store.
Marvel is going all in on X-Men '97 toys, also launching a Lego X-Jet earlier this year that comes with mutant Minifigures.
While Marvel's immediate Funko focus might be on the two big projects it has coming our way in 2024, it has also taken some time to create a couple of new figures for Valentine's Day. We might not see Spider-Man and Scarlet Witch in new MCU projects until at least 2025, but the two of them have new love-themed Pops you can buy right now at Funko.
Overwatch 2 Season 9 is titled Champions, and with it comes some really cool-looking things.
Publisher Bandai Namco and developer Spike Chunsoft Co., Ltd. have revealed 24 fighters for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero, and they're all Goku and Vegeta. Unsurprisingly, considering Goku and Vegeta are the two main characters in the Dragon Ball Z saga (amongst others like Gohan, for example), Spike Chunsoft is giving players the chance to fight using their various forms. This includes Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2, Majin Vegeta, and more.
Fallout 76 detailed a new update coming on January 30 that will implement bug fixes and launch the Burning Love event. Additionally, Fallout 76 PC players can now try out the Atlantic City: America's Playground expansion on the game's Public Test Servers.
The latest Minecraft YouTube video has revealed the Vault block and how it can be unlocked using Trial Keys. Minecraft Trial Chambers are a fresh addition to the game, but Mojang seemingly intends to expand on the feature based on these new additions.
Bungie has revealed a new Destiny 2 community event inspired by The Witcher. This new community event follows a crossover with CD Projekt Red’s hit franchise, which introduced several new cosmetics inspired by Geralt of Rivia that came with Season of the Wish. Crossovers are nothing new in Destiny 2, with Bungie introducing cosmetics based on other popular Sony titles like God of War and Horizon Forbidden West into the game, but this is the first time that one has resulted in a community event.
Honkai: Star Rail has revealed Gallagher as a new Fire Abundance character coming to the game with the launch of the Version 2.1 update, currently expected to debut in March. With the release of Honkai: Star Rail's newest playable world right around the corner, HoYoverse has given fans plenty of reasons to be excited about the new world. Penacony's release is expected to bring three new playable characters to Star Rail, more areas to explore, and even new gameplay mechanics. Now, players are being teased with even more characters to come.
Playing almost any game you want on a screen you can hold in the palm of your hand is now possible between devices like the PlayStation Portal, Steam Deck, and Nintendo Switch. You can also include the Backbone One in the group, a device you can attach to your phone and play mobile games with ease, or stream games from another device or Game Pass. Already available in a handful of different designs, Backbone has teamed up with Kojima Productions to create a special edition Death Stranding controller.
Gran Turismo players! Update 1.42* for Gran Turismo 7 arrives Wednesday, January 24th at 11:00pm PST / January 25th at 6:00am GMT / 3:00pm JST. Let’s take a look at what’s included.
Xbox and Obsidian Entertainment have revealed extended gameplay footage of Avowed, spilling new details about the aquatic Shatterscarp region as well as other key combat features. After its debut gameplay trailer went live as part of Xbox's summer showcase last June, Avowed appeared again at Xbox's recent Developer Direct alongside other big Xbox games like MachineGames' Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and Ninja Theory's Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2.
Tracking down and buying the Funko Pops you want is really only half the battle. Whether you're trying to find room for five or 50, figuring out ways to properly display your Pops can be a bit of a headache. Sure, you could put them on a shelf or decorate your desk with them, but is that really what you want for your precious Pops? If so, that's fine. Good for you. If you want something more, and I'm assuming you do since you're reading this, Funko has shown off two new Bitty Pop! displays officially created for showing off your miniature figures.
Obsidian Entertainment’s Avowed was one of five games to receive a lengthy gameplay showcase at the recent Xbox Developer_Direct presentation, with details being revealed on the action RPG’s world, combat, and more. Hot on the heels of that showing, the developer has shown off more of the game and revealed yet new details with an extended gameplay breakdown game director Carrie Patel and gameplay director Gabe Paramo.
Sometimes, expansive universes and vast worlds collide; in this case, X-Men and Konami’s Metal Gear Solid Series collide to reveal an intriguing connection that few are aware of. Legendary voice actor and scriptwriter David Hayter is the bridge connecting these two worlds.
