When Disney’s Frozen hit theaters, people expected it to be good. I’m not sure people expected it to be an unstoppable phenomenon. Disney was caught off guard so much that what little merchandise they had available, sold out in minutes. Store toy shelves looked like this:
Frozen Vinylmations sold out immediately and after that there was a slow period with little to buy. Then Funko announced they were releasing these:
We thought that would be all until we found out about the SDCC Anna and Elsa pieces.
and the EntertainmentEarth.com Glitter Olaf exclusive:
With the popularity of the regular pieces and the exclusives, rest assured we’ll be getting more designs down the road. we decided today to see what new versions of the popular characters and brand new characters we might expect coming soon. Let’s start with Olaf
Olaf
We’ve seen a headless Ned Stark and a headless Hershel. How about a happy headless character? This is a no brainer.Olaf singing with a top hat. It might be one that people might skip normally but I say add a couple mini top hat wearing seagulls and you have a bonafide hit!
This would be a perfect new mold so we can see the carrot stuck through the back of the head. Just make sure Olaf’s arms are reaching up to check it out!
This is my favorite. Summertime Olaf has to have his sunglasses and his drink in his hand!
Anna and Elsa
We’ve already seen rumors of the coronation versions of Anna and Elsa so don’t be surprised if these don’t hit the shelves sooner than later.Disney and Funko will want to take advantage of every opportunity so these young versions of Anna and Elsa would be perfect.
Marshmallow (6″ Pop)
I definitely want an angry Marshmallow with clear finger tips as a 6″ Pop.We also need a happy Marshmallow wearing his crown though!My favorite Marshmallow would be this guy with the spikes though!
Kristoff
One of the details from the original Kristoff that bugged me was his lack of hat. Yeah not a big deal but let’s fix it now. Give him a pick axe as well!I want a very snowy Kristoff. Not a small dusting like on the Jon Snow. Cover this sucker up!
Sven
I couldn’t think of many ways to squeeze more cash out of Sven but a carrot in the mouth could do it.
Hans
I’m not sure why anyone would want to own this smarmy guy but let’s make him anyway!
Oaken
Oaken is a pretty awesome looking character and could easily be a 6′ design but I think a regular pop would sell much better.
Trolls
Trolls could be a dozen designs but I’ll stick with these three. I expect to have a regular version of these three and a “flocked version”. Flocking would work perfectly for the outfits!
So Frozen fans. What would you think about these designs? Would you want any others?
