During the major toy fair that took place this past weekend, Funko announced that they will be releasing brand new Planeswalker figures. For those of you who aren’t already in with the new Funko craze, these figures are short vinyl models that represent all sorts of stuff. Seriously, they have Funko figures for just about anything you can imagine: comic books, The Walking Dead, Doctor Who, video games, and now Planeswalkers.
The first series of these Pop! Vinyl Figures will be releasing in April, and it will contain Jace Beleren, Garruk Wildspeaker, Chandra Nalaar, Liliana Vess, Ajani Goldmane, and Nissa Revane. The figures are about 4 inches tall, and sport giant heads atop smaller bodies. They’re quite the collector’s item, so fans can get in on this line as soon as it releases.
Another announcement from Funko and Wizards of the Coast is that the previous has teamed up with sculptors from Gentle Giant to release a brand new Legacy Collection of 6 inch, deluxe action figures. This set will also be of the previously-mentioned Planeswalkers and show them in blazing detail. The Legacy Collection will be releasing in August of this year, just in time for Gen Con. If you’re looking to get collecting in an all-new line of Magic: the Gathering memorabilia, now’s the time.
