Funko has partnered with Warner Bros, Nickelodeon-Viacom, and Sanrio on a collection of Pop figures in support of the It Gets Better Project and the work they do with the LGBTQ+ community. Indeed, Batman, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Hello Kitty Pops have been given a rainbow makeover that looks absolutely fantastic.

In addition to the rainbow coloring, the images of the Pops seems to indicate that they will also be translucent (see the close-up of SpongeBob below), though Funko hasn’t confirmed this. Needless to say, the effect would be stunning. If you’re interested in adding them to your collection, pre-orders are live now via the following links with shipping slated for July:
- Funko Pride 2020 Batman – See at Entertainment Earth
- Funko Pride 2020 SpongeBob SquarePants – See at Entertainment Earth
- Funko Pride 2020 Hello Kitty – See at Entertainment Earth
