These are all amazing and I am probably going to get everyone of them. Well...maybe not the lame Hades. I already pre-ordered the Amazon Dragon Maleficent. Mystery Minis were announced too. I hope there will be Exclusives that weren't shown.

Also, did Frollo kill somebody's mom at Funko or something?

re:colors--Even the Maleficent pop looks more accurate than past pops on that point. The purples are much brighter and even the orb is a different shade that her skin. I wish they'd just go ahead and make a variant of the throne pop where they add the staff. They have to have read comments online by now to realize they forgot it; they've made variants of--and for--less.

A fun variant of Hades instead would've been him exploding red fire with the squiggly lines around his eyes. Or perhaps him holding the little sucker he tries to give baby Hercules. Now they officially have a mold of Ursula's cauldron, I'm sure a Pop Moment of the end of "PUS" with the ghost hands isn't far off from becoming reality now. I wouldn't be surprised if they did variants where they replace the true love's kiss image with her "crystal" bubble or lighting variants, since there were so many colors in that scene--green, blue, orange, etc. That would be easy money for minimal effort for them. I personally like the 6 inch Dragon Maleficent they made a while back better. I imagine at some point they will make a Pop Moment of Dragon Maleficent v. Phillip on the cliff in that final shot of them before she dies. Maleficent is just so popular.

Well, I pre-ordered all of them with the exceptions of the Funko Shop Cruella (lol, won't be getting that one without paying eBay scalper prices), the Box Lunch Facilier (as he is sold out), and the Target Hades (which I don't really care for)

I am starting to wonder if DISNEY are the ones preventing any Frollo merchandise... Are they scared after #metoo with Frollo being a sexual assaulter/abuser to showcase him? Because at least Shan Yu got a Mystery Mini...

Also: this is my 666th post

Congrats for your milestone post!

When was the last Frollo merch released? That's a super-good point about Frollo and #metoo....

The last Frollo figure/merch I remember was the Vinylmation Disney released all the way back in 2012...

So they've already had the BoxLunch Facilier exclusive up? I must've missed Tiana, because I still have never seen any link for it. Weird. Usually, even when the things are out-of-stock, page links will still appear on Google. :/

FunkoShop Cruella is already up, too?? I thought most of these weren't going to appear until Halloween or something. I had got the throne pops pre-ordered, but not anything else. I don't think Disney's holding up Frollo for any particular reason. I just think this line of the villains is aligned with the Ultimate Princess release--the circle stands under all the pops make them similar--which means they probably picked mostly villains from the "princess" films. The only one that doesn't match in that way is Hades, but I'm not sure if it's the same as the others. Where he's faced forward, it's hard for me to tell if he has that little circle stand underneath it like the others or not? It may that they made an exception for him because he already had a mold they could easily re-work, whereas Frollo hasn't had one made yet? *shrug*

EDIT: Where I was talking about what they could have done with Hades in my last post, I think they could've went further. On top of him being all red and in a rage, he could have been holding mini versions of Pain and Panic in each hand by their skulls (sort of like the mini F&J, Diablo, Lucifer, etc.--the way he does after Hercules beats the Hydra.

She has not yet. As far as I'm aware. Facilier did, though. But I'm not too stressed, he'll be back up closer to release, I'm sure.

Now THAT is a great idea. I would have wanted him then! (Especially since the Pain and Panic 2-Pack, another "Funko Shop" exclusive, are RIDICULOUSLY overpriced on eBay. It's like...c'mon. Nobody likes Pain and Panic that much...)

Oh wow if I didn't already have the 2nd version Mal dragon pop I would so get this new one!

I think that's possible, same reason they wont make any Hans merch for the Frozen line. OTOH it doesn't explain all the Gaston merch, though in his case it could be b/c his exaggerated masculinity is seen more as a joke/meme these days.

To me, Funko is just a waiting game. If you miss something, eventually they'll make another version someday (and it probably will be even better than the old version, since they want people to have incentive to buy it again). That's what happened with Chernabog (which I had passed on because he looked freaky with legs) and Sorcerer Mickey (which I didn't decide I wanted until it was too late). Same with Dragon Maleficent--I missed the Treasures Box and then they made a much better version of her later, with green fire all around her. I knew they'd eventually make a 10 inch for her like the Giant Ursula pop (I have a feeling they will for Genie Jafar, too, eventually). Pain & Panic will come out again, it just might be a couple of years. I'm waiting on Shere Khan and Prince John to get pops again, too--they're the only villains I missed. What's funny is I was able to get Kaa and Sir Hiss though! Part of the reason I hesitated is because PJ didn't look too great. Maybe when he's made again, he'll look better than that first pop?

Genie Jafar is the only other Disney pop I feel certain will get a 10 inch except perhaps Mickey Mouse (maybe he already has?). Well, no--now I think of it, there's Chernabog! I'd love if they made 10 inch pop versions of the Titans, the Cyclops, and the Hydra even though I know that may never happen (Hercules not being one of their biggest films). I never bought the original Te Ka pop. Perhaps they might at least make a 6 inch of her (and Te Fiti) in the future that I'll buy. I'd love them to do Monstro or the Cave of Wonders, but I know making Monstro look right will be quite a task for them. I feel like they actually could make Grandmother Willow if they called it a Moment or made it a 6 inch. As popular as Alice is, you'd think they'd make a 10 inch of her. She does turn into a giant at one point.

Ariel was available for pre-order on Amazon again today. I don't think they'll be hard to get after the initial craziness dies down, but I guess I don't want to take any chances either, so I went ahead and pre-ordered her today. Things typically don't sell out fast and stay out-of-stock like they used to in the early days of Funko, aside from exclusives, but who knows.

I'm still curious why the pages for the Alice line haven't reappeared yet?? My only guess is they wanted to wait to time it with the Queen of Hearts Throne pop maybe is why they took them down temporarily? And I saw Stitch has a 10 inch himself while I was browsing. Not surprised considering how many variants he has.

The final wave of the Princesses:

I'd love for Mulan to be her in front of the statues that show her reflection. Or at least with a cherry blossom. If she was in the outfit she wears at the beginning of the movie (the green / blue one), I might get it since that outfit hasn't been turned into a pop yet. I don't know. While I like these, I don't really like that they have these stands that make them set apart from the others I have. I like to have all the pops the same way if they're sitting beside one another. Kudos to those who this will be the first time they're buying the princesses though.

I got the Maleficent throne pop in the mail a couple of days ago. It's so cute. I'm grateful that I have it after all. Can't wait for the others!

I saw it at a Facebook group where they usually post leaks from reliable sources.

I'm surprised they're making Ultimate Pops for Elsa and Anna. I figured maybe they'd hold off on new pops for the film until the 10th anniversary. Its not like they have a lot of options for new figures left other than the rest of the cast that haven't had pops(Hans,Duke, Oaken) and maybe Anna and Kristoff in the outfits at the end of the film.

The majority of these Ultimate Princess pops are just new models of outfits that have already been made before though.

The Alice pops have finally reappeared on Amazon. At least I think I understand now the reason they disappeared is because they were combining the set so that you could click on any of the pops no matter which pop from the set you're looking at. Neat. The King of Hearts, the Cheshire Cat, and the White Rabbit are must's for me. The March Hare is really cute, but I don't like the Mad Hatter and why get one without the other? Besides, I'm sure they'll eventually make a Pop Moment of Alice with them at the table in the huge pink chair she sits in.

Aside from that, I'll get Lilo w/ Scrump as my Lilo pop. I can wait to buy Stitch because I'm sure there'll be a thousand more variants down the line. I'll wait for the right one to go with Lilo. I imagine the Tiana exclusive link will appear soon since all the Ultimate Princess pops start to come out on 6/15... Since the Tremaine pop says she won't release until December, I'm guessing the Cruella exclusive won't come out until around that time as well.

Are the Ultimate Princess pops supposed to be coming in waves of four or no? At least that's what I thought, but then the Ariel pop was just delayed to the end of next month on Amazon. :/ That's how I know I haven't missed the Tiana exclusive pop either, since it could show up any time during all the different waves or after.

Was the Captain Hook - ride tied Pop meant to be an exclusive?

I ask before in Spain wasn´t released neither seems like it at this point.

Although I don´t mind since they´re going to sell the Villains with bases and that´s how I´m going to get him and Lady Tremaine. I don´t mind having them all by themselves and some with bases as long as I have them.

Kronk's so cute. I wouldn't get the Walrus anyway, but the carpenter is a bit too small. I know that's the size buddy pops have to be at though. I hope the Alice line is a sign they'll include more buddy pops in the future.
