A few years ago, Funko released a wave of Pop Vinyl figures for The Flash featuring Barry Allen's Scarlet Speedster, Reverse-Flash, and Captain Cold. Since then, we've also had figures featuring Zoom and Grodd and the latest wave features The Flash, Kid-Flash, Jay Garrick, and Vibe. Unfortunately, there's not a female character in sight and that didn't sit particularly well with star Candice Patton (Iris West).
It would have been great to get a Pop featuring Iris (especially if she was decked out in her superhero costume from season four), while Jesse Quick and Gypsy would have also been cool. I'm not sure how much demand there would be for Cecile and Nora has only just been introduced but the company was quick to reveal that a Killer Frost Pop is on the way and promised more female characters are coming.
Do you agree that this was a missed opportunity or is Patton making a fuss over nothing? Will you be picking any of these figures up? Feel free to weigh in with your thoughts in the comments section.
