Funko Shows Off Westworld POPs
HBO's Westworld was one of the breakout television hits of the past year. With it's impressive production value and compelling storylines - the later of which led to much theorizing amongst fans - made it the most watched freshman show for the history of the network.
While fans will have to wait until 2018 to see the show's second season, they will be able to get their hands on a series of Funko Pop! figurines inspired by the show. TV properties, such as Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, and Stranger Things, are some of the most successful for Funko's brand, so it is a no-brainer that the characters of Westworld would get the Pop! treatment as well.
Funko has not announced an official release date for the pops yet, but given the timing of this announcement, they could hit store shelves within a few months.

Westworld will return for season 2 on HBO in 2018.
Dolores Abernathy
One of the show's central protagonists, Dolores Abernathy (Evan Rachel Wood) spends the first season uncovering the truth about her past as a 'host'. Her Pop! sports her now-iconic blue dress, but here's hoping Funko makes an exclusive version of her wearing her gun-slinging get up that she acquires halfway through the season.
prevnextRobert Ford
One of the two creators of the park, Robert Ford (Anthony Hopkins) sports his usual work clothes, and even carries his black notebook. This isn't the first time that Hopkins has been immortalized in Pop! form, with pops for his characters in Silence of the Lambs and Thor: The Dark World already being made by Funko. Nevertheless, Ford is a must-have item, both for fans of the series and of the iconic actor.
prevnextYoung Robert Ford
One of the most interesting 'hosts' in the park, Robert Ford's replica of his childhood self (played by Robert Bell) brings a whole other element to the show's first season. Giving the way his Pop!'s face is constructed, don't be surprised if there is a chase version of his head split open, recreating perhaps one of the season's weirdest moments.
prevnextBernard Lowe
Does this Pop! look like anything to you?
Without spoiling things, it's a no-brainer that Bernard (Jeffrey Wright) to be included in the show's first wave of figurines. The head of Delos' programming division, Bernard has more than a few secrets up his sleeve. His Pop! captures him in his usual work attire and carrying a grey notebook.
prevnextThe Man in Black
Another character with a heap of spoilers surrounding him, The Man in Black was quickly established as a fan-favorite as the show premiered. The character (played by Ed Harris) is a new twist on the Gunslinger from the original Westworld film, and watching his story unfold across the season is just as captivating. The Pop! shows The Man in Black in his - as you guessed it - all-black attire, and sporting his trusty side-arm.
prevnextMaeve Millay
One of the show's several other badass female characters, Maeve Millay (Thandie Newton) becomes the audience's proxy into uncovering the secrets of Westworld. Her Pop! replica is sporting Maeve's courtesan attire that she wears while managing the Mariposa, and she, of course, has a drink in her hand.
prevnextTeddy Flood
One of the most interesting characters since Westworld's premiere episode, Teddy (James Marsden) is the park's resident leading man with an - albeit artificial - heart of gold. Given his involvement in the events of the season one finale, this Pop! is sure to be a must-have when the second season rolls around.
