The DC Extended Universe continues to bring some of the most beloved characters into live-action. With that comes quite a bit of merchandise – including Funko‘s successful line of Pop! figures.

Quite a few DCEU Pop! figures have been made over the years, with expansive lines for films like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad. But even then, there are quite a few characters that haven’t gotten a Pop! figure yet – but definitely should.

We thought we’d break down some of the DCEU Pop! figures that we’d definitely like to add to our collection. Click through to the next slide to check out our list.

Amanda Waller

Suicide Squad had perhaps the most expansive line of Funkoย products for a DCEU film yet, with plenty of Pop! figures, Mystery Minis, and various other products for the film. But one character was largely missing in action.

Theย Suicide Squad‘s ringleader, Amanda Waller (Viola Davis),ย ended up being a highlight of the divisive film, bringing her no-nonsense attitude to life onscreen. Unfortunately, she did not receive her own Pop! figure or any sort of Funkoย product – something that could easily be changed.

An Amanda Waller Funkoย Pop! would easily be a collectors’ item for DCEUย fans, as well as those who love the character’s countless comic appearances. But who knows, maybe she could eventually get the Funkoย Pop! treatment from Suicide Squad 2 or another future DCEUย appearance.

Lois Lane

Another female character who has countless adaptations, but no Funkoย products, is Lois Lane.

While fans have made their own custom Pop! figures for Lois’ various portrayals – such as Smallvilleย and Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Supermanย – she has yet to earn an officially licensed figure.

With Lois becoming an increasingly significant ‘key’ to the DCEU, a Pop! of her big-screen portrayal would be a pretty good place to start. Amy Adams’ portrayal of the character has won over many, and is set to make a return appearance in November’s Justice League. With the Justice League line already including multiple figures of Diana Prince/Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) and Meraย (Amber Heard), there’s no reason why Lois couldn’t join the line at a later point.

Lex Luthor

Aside from Lois, another significant character was missing from Funko’sย Batman v Supermanย line –ย Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg).

ย Granted, he may have been one of the most divisive aspects of BvS, but he certainly was a pivotal one – essentially pulling the strings of many of the film’s events. Eisenbergย also helped bring to life one of the most visually unique portrayals of Lex, with long hair and a distinct wardrobe.

Like Lois, Funkoย had held off on making a Lexย Pop! figure for quite some time, before including a Mechย Suit version of the character in a recent Legion of Collectors box. Now that Lexย has entered the Funkoย world, there’s no reason why his big-screen counterpart couldn’t join him.

Clark Kent

To the delight of many collectors, Funko has begun to include ‘plain clothes’ Pop! figures for some of the DCEU’s heroes.ย A special Diana Prince Pop! figure was included in Wonder Woman‘s first wave, while a Justice League Bruce Wayne Pop! figure was part of Funko’sย San Diego Comic-Con exclusives.

A perfect way to round out the trio would be for Funkoย to make a DCEU-inspired Clark Kent Pop! figure.ย A comic-inspired version ofย Superman’s alter-ego hit Hot Topic shelves last year, and became a coveted item amongst collectors.

A BvS-inspired version of Clark would also be fairly easy to make, especially with Funkoย already creating a Mystery Mini for the character last year. Or Funkoย could end up basing it off of some sort of ensemble that Clark could wear in the upcoming Justice League. Either way, it would certainly be a hit amongst fans.

Wonder Woman’s Team

And finally, we think a certain Pop! multipack would be a perfect addition to Funko’sย Wonder Woman line. With the film captivating audiences everywhere, many of its characters have gotten the well-deservedย Funkoย Pop! treatment.

Butย a trio of characters – Charlie (Ewenย Bremner), Chief (Eugene Brave Rock), and Sameerย (Saรฏd Taghmaoui) – proved to be significant enough to warrant their own figures. The characters grew on many Wonder Woman fans, and used their storylinesย to depict mental illness and racial diversity.

With that in mind, we can bet that there are quite a few fans who would love a three-pack of these characters. Plus, it would allow those who’ve collected Wonder Woman‘s previous figures to assemble their own Pop! version of the team’s photograph, which we think would be a pretty awesome display.
