In a world where many toy companies are showing off figures six months to a year (sometimes more) before those toys go up for sale, I’m always taken by surprise when Funko will pull something out of their hat and officially announce a new toy a couple of days before it’s supposed to be released. Generally these tend to be upcoming Marvel Funko POP! Vinyls, but this time the new Marvel figure comes from a less popular line: Wacky Wobblers Bobble-Heads. But hey, who better to get folks talking about a line than a Marvel character who won’t shut up: the Funko Deadpool Wacky Wobblers figure has now been released!
Now, I am definitely not a bobble-head kind of guy (I consider the Funko POP! Vinyls to be figures and not bobble-heads), but I am a Deadpool kind of guy. So despite the fact that I’ve already got close to a dozen Funko Deadpool POP! Vinyls in my collection, I figure that this more realistically-proportioned Deadpool is well worth adding to my collection.
The Funko Wacky Wobblers Deadpool is now in-stock and available for ordering online, and should (theoretically) hit retail stores soon. Wacky Wobblers don’t get nearly the distribution that the vastly more popular Funko POP Vinyl line does, so I’m genuinely not sure what chain stores to even check to find this Deadpool Wacky Wobbler at a brick-and-mortar location.
What do you think of the Funko Wacky Wobbler Deadpool, Marvel collectors? Do you have a spot for this style of Deadpool figure in your collection, or is this full-on Bobble-Head aesthetic just not for you?
Previews has an exclusive XForce version. I just ordered him on Amazon.
