The pre-order pages on Amazon for the new Aladdin pops disappeared for a while. Thankfully the pages for Prince Ali + the Moment came back up and I was able to order them at the normal prices. I lucked up with all the KH pops because the Pre-Order Guarantee saved about $2 per pop; that rarely happens for me with pop pre-orders, so I’m grateful. Hopefully Genie comes up again (at a normal price), since he’s the other one I don’t want to take chances on selling out. I don’t think the new Jasmine or Iago will sell out by any means. I might get them this time next year if there’s another $4 sale somewhere.
I’m pretty hopeful we’ll get a complete TLM line for its 30th anniversary--for once. I’d guess a Kiss the Girl Moment pop is very likely, a new version of Ariel as a mermaid without the flower in her hair (holding a fork or her collecting bag is what I’d like), possibly a new Ursula (one of her holding the scroll?), a Flotsam and Jetsam 2-pack, King Triton, Eric in his sailor outfit, Ariel in the glittering purple dress from when Triton gives her legs, Scuttle, Chef Louie, maybe/finally Vanessa? I’d still like to have a tiny polyp of Triton included with Ursula like Frog Naveen with Tiana, for example; maybe the seahorse announcer could be with the Triton pop, too. The other variants of Eric (black and blue clothes + the Statue) and Ariel (in Scuttle’s dress made from sails) are long shots I’ll keep hoping for.
Since SB's 60th is next year, possibly the three fairies, Briar Rose, and maybe *crosses fingers* Phillip. And Aurora in her blue dress with her original hair and not the ugly princess makeover would be nice, too. Maybe we'll finally get adult Simba and Nala with TLK getting attention next year? The animal pops have mostly been a fail for me though, so who knows if they'd even look good. Tarzan's 20th is next year, but I don't expect the film to get any Funko love, unfortunately. :/ Unlikely TP&TF's 10th will get too much fanfare either.
