“Mad Men” Gets Funko Pops! & Don Draper Has Arrived [Review]

Mad Men was one of AMC’s He claims the television shows. It is nice to see that we will be getting some recognition for such an amazing show. Funko has announced madman Funko’s a while back but we finally see them hit stores. These collectibles are for the faint of heart as a show wasn’t that kid-friendly. This Funko Pop is here to take the edge off. 

After seeing Don Draper in stores he instantly was just a must-have. Being a fan of the Mad Men show it was nice to see a modernize collectible for such an iconic character. The box is just like every other Funko Pop box. It’s time though the red colors really pop here just like the iconic Mad Men television logo. The back shows the other five characters that are released in the set. The other ones to collect are Betty, Roger, Joanne, and Peggy. And with such an amazing cast of characters, hopefully, we will see more of these characters come out in the near future.

Now on to Don Draper himself, the figure unlike most Funko Pop’s he has a cigarette in mouth. We also see him with a scotch glass in hand. The glass is a pretty cool little detail too, as it has a silver rim a translucent middle and then the scotch coloring at the bottom. We have seen Horror Funko‘s that are a little more grown-up but this one kind of takes the cake as it is more adult then usually seen. 

I really dig the business suit and the pose they decided to place him for this Funko Pop figure. Mad Men is all about business and making strategic moves, so it is nice to see the collectible figure give that essence. I do enjoy the hand in the pocket too as it gives the character a little more emotion and vibe to the Don Draper we all know and love. 

I’m glad we’re starting to see a nice variety come out of Funko. Their pops are something any collector can get behind and find something they enjoy. Especially with the licenses, we are seeing lately I’m sure we can see a wide variety of new and upcoming at Funko collectibles that will surprise us. I will be on the lookout for the other cast of characters in the series, and if you’d like to own your own Don Draper or any other character from madmen look for them in stores or buy or pre-order them here.

To Me, My X-Men, With Marvel 80 Years Funko Pops! [Review]

Funko has been releasing a lot of Marvel 80th-Anniversary Funko Pop! figures. These figures have been paying tribute to the past 80 years of Marvel with new sleek boxing as well as first appearance, pictures on the back. We have already seen X-Men members Iceman and Beast but this time we were able to get our hands on Cyclops, Marvel Girl, and Angel.

The boxes this time are the same as the other Marvel 80th-Anniversary Funko Pop! figures. It’s a basic silver trim with the Marvel 80 years logo as well as the first appearance of the characters comic on the back. Being that this is the X-Men they all share the same comic.

Now into the Funko Pop! figures themselves. The Cyclops has already had a Funko Pop! release but features his classic style outfit. This one features his first appearance outfit recently recognized from the All-New X-Men series. The figures are very dynamic as it shows Cyclops posed. He did not come with the stand, and I kinda wish she did and he was very top-heavy. But based on appearances it’s a really nice figure the red visor really stands out to the yellow and blue outfit.

Next up we have Marvel Girl who is getting her first Funko Pop! debut. We have seen other Jean Grey figures, as well as Phoenix and Dark Phoenix Funko Pops! Marvel Girl it’s time to shine is now and it really does. Like Cyclops, she also is posed, and ready for action. I do you like the dynamic style of her hair as you can see the layers and its movement. Nothing else really specifically stands out for this figure but it definitely goes perfect with the set.

Lastly, we have the X-Men of flight and beauty, Angel. He has had a release before, and the X-Men Marvel Collector Corp Subscription box. I love this figure and it really stands out compared to the rest. With an included base, Angel flies high with his wings spread. It’s like the other X-Men he has a yellow and blue outfit but this time his white rings really stand out.

 

Nothing is specifically special about each one of these Funko’s but when you get the set together it’s really something to behold. Getting all the X-Men together it’s definitely an accomplishment in the zone in the hunt to find all these figures only adds to it. It is nice to see more dynamic and posed Funko Pop! figures compared to their old stiff counterparts. These Marvel 80th-Anniversary X-Men Funko Pops! are perfect for any fan of all classic comic books, Marvel, or fans of the X-Men. You can find these in stores now or you can walk down an online order or pre-order here.
