Funko has caught on to the mass hysteria that has always surrounded the band Queen. With all of the current excitement of the movie Bohemian Rhapsody, Funko is back to release one of the most iconic music moments ever. Now available for pre-order, the Freddie Mercury Pop! featuring the singer in his iconic yellow jacket and microphone in hand will be available soon.
Although all of the Freddie Mercury Funko pops are important and iconic to fans of the music, this one in particular probably holds the most weight due to the outfit and moment that the pop is depicting. This release is most known for the moment that Queen rocked the world at the Live Aid concert in July 1985. The performance is known as one of the best performances of all time.
This is not to say that the other bandmates and their figures are not important by any means, Freddie just happened to be the lead singer and his flamboyant nature draws a lot of attention. Collectors can (and should) round out the collection with the other vinyls to make the complete set. Inevitably, however, there are many of Freddie in his varying outfits from different performances over time.
Gamestop will be releasing this Freddie Mercury Pop! on 11/27/18 but are currently taking pre-orders. One of the best ways to get on is to go online and reserve one for yourself. Going into a local store as well will work as long as a partial payment is placed on the order. Another good idea too is to consider getting more than one for gifts this year! Surprisingly, many people are huge fans and would love to have a pop of their own even if they aren’t collectors.
