New GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Funko Pop Groot Variants Will Leave You Reaching For Your Credit Card
Funko has revealed two new Groot POPS, but one of them contains some pretty big spoilers for the sequel's after-credits scenes. Regardless, you're definitely going to want to get your hands on these...
Two Amazon exclusive Groot Funko Pops from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 have been revealed and you're going to want to place your order pretty damn quickly if you fell in love with the adorable CGI character this weekend. As you can see below, the first is the adolescent version of Groot we meet in one of the sequel's mid-credits scenes, and despite his lack of screentime, this is sure to be a hot item.
Merchandise for the movie has understandably revolved around Baby Groot, but Marvel clearly didn't want to make the same mistake they did in 2014 by not releasing content based on the second version of the character. However, another figure offers up a different version of Baby Groot in his Ravager uniform. Sadly, there's no sign of someone's severed toe, but he is carrying around Yondu's badge.
Talking of Yondu, he still doesn't have his own figure, but that will hopefully change sooner rather than later. What do you guys think of these Pops? Let us know in the comments section down below...
