Link.

There have been a lot of new video game Funko Pop figures revealed of late--Mass Effect: Andromeda, Gears of War, Tekken, Overwatch--and the company's not stopping. Today, it showed off new Pop figures and keychains based on the Kingdom Hearts series.

Seven new Pop Vinyl figures have been announced, including two each for Pete, Donald, and Goofy, as well as Mickey and Chip and Dale ones.

A few of these will be retailer exclusives: the black-and-white Pete will only be found at Walmart, Kingdom Goofy at GameStop, and Kingdom Donald at Hot Topic. The others will be released more broadly. All of these arrive in April.

Before those hit stores, Funko will also released Pop keychains featuring Mickey, Donald, and Goofy. Those debut in March.

People are theorizing that while Disney owns the rights to the KH characters, Square Enix has some say in merchandize rights, which is why all Kingdom Hearts figures are made by Square and not Disney.

That being said, Goofy is terrifying.

They still have all the rights to the Disney characters and this is all Disney.

Wow really?

How can they not have the main character of the series lol

First off that mickey is awful, second off, how do you not have the main character of the series? 🤔

Funko already has deals with Disney and I think the original characters, such as Sora, are owned by Square.

I think Pete and Goofy look alright, but the others... yeah. The outfits look really good, at least. Maybe they'll look better in person.

What a strange reaction I'm seeing here. People on the Funko sites I visit love them.

I think Mickey is a little off but the rest look fantastic.

Need Sora and the Square characters though.

Sora is owned by Disney, as well as Kairi, Riku, probably everyone.
Still upsets me they never sell any merchandise in their parks.

I never get why people buy Funko pops when they are ugly and strip the most iconic part of the character which is their face.

Actually Sora is owned by Disney and not Square, along with any characters created for the game.

If you ask me, every Funko Pop figure is ugly.

Why do people like these so much...?

Because most people don't think they're ugly. :p

They have a ton of really nice lines. Some don't come out as well as they should but their Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, etc. lines are all great looking.

Wave 2 of the Overwatch Pops is a good example: http://popvinyls.com/2017/01/23/wave-2-overwatch-pop-vinyls-coming-2017/

Those things are adorable. Now if you don't like the style itself, I understand.

Gotta pass on Funko's man. I despise the look and quality to them.

I just know that there'll be Play Arts Kai KH3 figures coming out eventually. Better quality than Funko but more expensive. Unless this style is something you like, then go for it.
