The summer movie season may have officially left the station, but one of its final hot hitsBullet Trainended the season off on a high note. TheBrad Pitt-starring action comedy has made over $175 million at the worldwide box office and nowFunkohas announced new colorful Pops for this fun high energy train battle royale.
Their newBullet Trainwave includes three figures. There’s Ladybug, The Wolf, and Momomon. Ladybug, who was played by Pitt in the film, can be seen in his green tracksuit, white bucket hat, and black rim glasses. The figure is holding on tight to the briefcase, the macguffin of the film that all the assassins on this ill-fated train are after. Ladybug also comes in a Chase Variant that sees his glasses removed and his face all cut up. This battle damage version more reflects Ladybug’s condition towards the end of the film. Then there’s The Wolf who was played byBad Bunny. His Pop is out for vengeance after his wife was murdered at their wedding. He’s bearing his signature knife and his white suit has blood on it, reminding us of his memorable fight scene with Pitt’s Ladybug.
Finally, there’s Momomon who was the lovable anime-inspired mascot from the film. The character’s pink and white fluffy design fits right at home in a franchise likePokémonand their Pop is also holding the fabled briefcase. This Pop instantly brings to mind the hilarious scene where Ladybug punched Momonon in the face to get the briefcase back.

Bullet Trainfrom beginning to end was this extremely fun and action-packed thrill ride that had a surprising amount of character depth in its two-hour train ride. DirectorDavid Leitchis no stranger to the action genre with great films likeDeadpool 2,Atomic Blond, andJohn Wickunder his belt. However, his latest action comedy was a unique, zany blend of an anime-inspired, neon-soaked tale and the hard-hitting fight scenes found in the filmmaker’s more serious affairs. The action scenes were applaudable, and the train setting offered a lot of variety for its insanely creative set pieces.
In the film, Pitt played against his usual tough guy type and actors likeAaron Taylor-Johnson,Joey King, andBrian Tyree Henryadded a ton of glowing personality to the action film, and these Funko Pops perfectly reflect that glowing feeling. Hopefully, this is only the beginning of Funko’sBullet Traincollaboration as it would be great to see The Twins, The Prince, The Elder, and The White Dragon all get Pops as well. For now, you’re able to find more information on this new speedy Pop line onFunko’s website, and you can pre-order these figures onEntertainment Earth’s websiteas well. Also, if you’re not ready for summer to end,Bullet Trainis the perfect adventure to hold onto this season’s warm blockbuster feeling. The film is in theaters now.
