When I heard that a Funko POP! Rides Deadpool Chimichanga Truck set was in the works earlier this winter, I would have written it off as a ridiculous rumor if it hadn’t come from the president of Funko himself. Even so, my mind was still having a hard time grasping the concept of this vehicle–right up until I walked into the New York Comic Con 2015 Funko booth, where I was finally able to grasp the hilarity of this new Funko Deadpool toy…
UPDATE 2/17/2015: The Funko Deadpool Chimichanga Truck is now up for order!
Of all the vehicles in the Marvel universe that I thought we’d be seeing in Funko form, I can honestly say that I didn’t even have a Deadpool Chimichanga Truck on the list at all. That said, this bright yellow truck with “Chimichanga” deco on it is bright, funny, and a perfect gift to give to your Deadpool loving friends (or Deadpool hating enemies).
The Funko Deadpool POP Vinyls figure included with the set is actually a new Deadpool mold, as the figure is Deadpool holding a chimichanga (which is sort of a necessity, given the nature of this set and all).
Unfortunately, the Funko POP! Rides Agent Coulson with Lola was not on display at the 2015 New York Toy Fair, but hopefully we’ll be seeing that set in prototype form by the summer.
The Funko POP Rides Deadpool Chimichanga Truck is now up for order, and retails for $24.99 like the rest of the Funko POP Vinyls Rides sets (although these prices do tend to vary by indvidual retailer). The set is scheduled for release in May 2015, although I expect this particular Funko set to be pretty hard to find in retail stores for its first few months of release.
How do you like the Deadpool Chimichanga Truck Funko POP! Vinyls set, Marvel collectors? Will this be a fun addition to your collection, or do you think this set is an unnecessary waste of space?
Digging this. Looks fun.
Cool idea. Who doesnt love mexican food?
