Early Listing Unveils SUICIDE SQUAD Funko POP! Figures (And May Reveal Who Lives & Who Dies)
An early listing of Funko! POP's upcoming line of Suicide Squad figures has been leaked and showcases a handful of your soon-to-be favorite crazies including the Joker, Harley Quinn, Deadshot, & more!
Even though 2016 will likely be remembered for the release of three of the biggest comic book movies ever - Captain America: Civil War, X-Men: Apocalypse, & Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice - it will also most likely be looked back on as the year studios started taking bigger risks with more experimental, non-traditional, comic book affairs such as Deadpool, Suicide Squad, and Doctor Strange.
The riskiest of the bunch is probably Warner Bros.' third DC Extended Universe adventure Suicide Squad, which is an ensemble piece directed by David Ayer and features a character roster full of supervillains, save for the Batman cameo. It's led by a cast featuring Academy Award-winner Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club), two-time Academy Award-nominee Will Smith (Concussion), Margot Robbie (The Wolf Of Wall Street), two-time Academy Award-nominee Viola Davis (How To Get Away With Murder), Joel Kinnaman (RoboCop), and Jai Courtney (Jack Reacher).
An early listing for Funko POP! figures has been leaked (via Twitter) and has unveiled Funko's upcoming line of Suicide Squad POP! figures. The characters we'll see, excluding unannounced variants, are the Joker, Harley Quinn, Deadshot, El Diablo, Katana, Rick Flagg, Captain Boomerang, and Killer Croc. Check them out below:
Curiously missing are Amanda Waller, Enchantress, and Slipknot, the latter of which has been rumored to perish early-on in the film. Does this listing spell the end for him and maybe one of the ladies? Maybe, but probably not. It's still likely all three and maybe a couple more characters receive the Funko POP! treatment by year's end, but for right now, enjoy these pieces and sound off with your thoughts below!
