There's no end to Funko Pops' ever-expanding march. Pokémon joined the lineup back in 2019, bringing us a set of almost exclusively Gen 1 critters. That includes the three Kanto starters, Pikachu, Mewtwo, and the original Eeveelutions. With Funko Fair 2021 now in full swing, we've just learned which Pokémon are arriving next.
This time around, Meowth and Psyduck have made the cut, marking two new Pokémon to join the Funko Pop range. New variants of Pikachu (Attack Stance) and Bulbasaur with a Metallic Silver coating have also been revealed, and all four are due to launch later this year.
With Pokémon's 25th-anniversary celebrations kicking off, we're hardly surprised that more Funko Pops are coming. They join the line-up of recently announced merchandise, which includes a TCG re-release, shirts, watches, and some tasty looking Pikachu treats.
Additional gaming Funko Pops were also revealed yesterday, but focused on titles which missed the Switch: Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. There's unlikely to be anymore reveals for now at Funko Fair, but we'll keep you informed if that changes.
Do you collect Funko Pops? Will these make a fine addition to your collection? Let us know down below.

metalic silver bulbasaur sounds like the next mario kart character
Ahh yes. Make Bulbasaur better by sucking the colour and life out of his skin. He looks like one of those Paint Your Own animal kits. >.>
@TJWorks And they all have weird dead eyes. Pikachu doesn't look himself at all. I think Amiibo's have much better designs than Funko Pop.
@Clyde_Radcliffe The dead eyes are just an inherently bad design choice for most Funko Pops. These metallic variants are even worse.
Urgh. There is so much better Pokemon merch out there. Especially of gen 1. Especially of Pikachu. Some of it's even made by Funko.
Pops are the worst.
Never understood why these sell like hotcakes, other than the fact that there's one for pretty much every famous character ever.
Can we have other gens please? Munchlax would be ideal, but I’d settle for Tropius, Rowlet or Ducklett
Not a big fan of Pop figures but I do like that grumpy Pikachu.
Funko fails again to give our beloved Pikachu justice, others not so bad
@Dragwhite what about Dr. Metallic Bulbasaur?
Pink Gold Pikachu
While collecting figurines isn't my forte, I prefer Nendoroid over Funko Pop
I got WW Link and WW Zelda to decorate my gaming room
Here come the Funko Pop bashers writing the same old comments on every post with them in.
You don't have to buy them
My dirty amiibo collecting habit is enough, thank you.
I'll stick with amiibo too. Heck I just splurged on the F4F Mario and Yoshi Exclusive Edition which is much more worth it than these junko pops.
But hey, good for the fans of these things.
So bulbasaur got lost in mario 64 and wandered back out after falling on a bunch of metal blocks?
Nice! Now let's start acknowledging the other 7 gens.
Like others, I never saw the appeal of funko pops
I've been getting quite into collecting Tubbz tho, they're kind of similair to funko pops
