Funko’s Pop! Yourself figures inspired by 'Deadpool & Wolverine'

Celebrate your fandom with Funko’s ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ collaboration

Funko is launching its Deadpool and Wolverine cosplay options for their customizable figures, Pop! Yourself, at San Deigo Comic-Con.

The excitement around Marvel Studio’s upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine movie has been unreal, essentially beginning the moment star Ryan Reynolds confirmed he convinced Hugh Jackman to don the claws and yellow and black spandex again. And the franchise’s second sequel has only gained momentum in recent months as the film’s release date approaches. So, it’s unsurprising Funko is not only jumping on the hype train with new Pop! figures for the superhero picture, but earning their own car by debuting a Pop! Yourself experience inspired by Deadpool & Wolverine at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC).

This is the first time fans will be able to get licensed accessories with their personalized figures. Each day of the con, fans can line up at the activation station for the chance to create their own cosplay character modeled after either Deadpool or Wolverine, complete with a character body and two additional accessories. They will also receive exclusive Comic-Con packaging, a surprise “buddy” collectible and two exclusive accessory options, including a Deadpool VIP lanyard and a TVA-inspired device. The exclusive Comic-Con experience will cost $50 USD.

“Last year, we introduced our Pop! Yourself program to our fans and the response has been beyond what we could have ever imagined,” said Johanna Gepford, SVP, Revenue. “Celebrating our one-year anniversary by directly engaging with the deep-rooted fandom of our Funko community allows us to immerse our fans in all things Funko at the epicenter of pop culture with our brand-new cosplay experience inspired by Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine.”

Fans who cannot attend SDCC will still have an opportunity to participate from home beginning on Wednesday, July 24, when they can purchase a $20 limited edition ‘attach pack’ alongside the standard Pop! Yourself collectible from Funko’s website.

Con-goers will find the Pop! Yourself station at Funkoville International Airport, Funko’s unique booth experience, located on the SDCC floor, which will also feature dedicated spaces for each of the company’s brands: Funko, Loungefly, Mondo and the soon-to-be released AAA video game, Funko Fusion. SDCC runs from Wednesday, July 24 to Sunday, July 28, 2024.

    The invention of television was considered a major threat to the film industry — why would people go to the theatre to watch a movie when they could be entertained in their own living rooms? But audiences kept going to cinemas because it’s not just about the content, but the experience. The same is true today. In spite of the endless amount of stories available for streaming on any number of devices, people still head to their local theatre to catch the latest big budget spectacle, awards-worthy performance or genre offering.

    The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has been laying the groundwork for this epic crossover for years. First, post-credit sequences included unrelated characters; then they began to interact with individuals from other storylines; and finally, those characters began to appear in each other’s narratives, including a movie featuring unparalleled in-fighting. Now, all of this preparation is culminating in possibly the greatest — and most ambitious — superhero movie to date. A villain that’s lurked on the periphery for some time is ready to make his big move in Avengers: Infinity War and it’s going to take everyone in the MCU to stop him.

  • Film vs. Digital: Can there ever be a winner?

    Anyone can make a movie now. The rise of digital as a legitimate film medium and the availability of affordable, high-quality cameras have democratized the industry. A great story and relatively decent production values is all a picture needs to gain recognition — Sundance indie hit, Tangerine, was shot entirely on an iPhone. The manner by which it was shot has become irrelevant to audiences as the advances in technology have virtually eliminated any perceptible differences between film and digital productions. However the debate in Hollywood wages on with a handful of purists fighting to keep celluloid alive. The reality is the transition was rapid and today the majority of filmmaking no longer actually involves film.

    There is a long line of one-man wrecking machines who are able to takedown entire operations without assistance. Their backgrounds vary from government agents to experienced assassins to angry fathers or all of the above. Yet their female counterparts are almost non-existent. But that’s about to change with Charlize Theron‘s latest picture, Atomic Blonde, in which she portrays an elite MI6 spy.

    There is a general perception that manga comics mostly contain fantastical stories about young people with magical powers who battle evil in colourful costumes or dark tales of brooding teens dealing with the supernatural. Although those comprise a large portion of the narratives available, there is another variety consisting of thoughtful dramas, often historically based, that chronicle the lives of ordinary people. These have served as the source for several celebrated Japanese animated films, the latest of which is titled In This Corner of the World.
