THE ORVILLE Season Two...

[Amaris]

@Dayton Ward and @David Mack were my first thoughts. I know David Mack is known things like Destiny, but he did a comedic story for the New Frontier: No Limits short story anthology and it was hilarious.



I love Funko Pops, they're the one thing I actually collect, and I would be thrilled if they did The Orville.

Oh certainly, they're very talented! That said, I want the author who did Strangers from the Sky, and Dwellers In The Crucible. Is it obvious I'm a big fan? Yes. Yes it is.

I have no doubt that they will. But, I'm the odd one and I prefer toys that are actually toys and fun things.

I do have some limited experience with making comic book style scenes. On the action figure thread in MISC I've posted a few action figure comics. I'll link one here in a spoiler tag as it's my biggest one and It's all one large image.

Spoiler: ST: Operation Escape.

This is all brilliant. It feels like a mix between "Robot Chicken" and a Comic Book. You really need to do a "Orville" story like this with a beginning,middle and end to the story.

Thank you, I was randomly thinking of the brig scene from STV and wanted to do some kind of humorous adventure. I was planning on doing Orville action figure comics too whenever action figures for it get around to being made. I have also used stills for comics.

Spoiler: DS9 Figure Comic.

For me, it is the show Peter David was destined to write novels for.

I hope that the show manages to throw off the "Next Generation" taint in Season 2. Perhaps I would be able to respect it more if it did.

I'm not so sure McFarlane is worried about your respect. God knows I'm not.

 

[Mudd]

Yeah, we soldier on.

 

[BillJ]

Yeah, we soldier on.

I mean, McFarlane has been a show runner for about twenty years now. I'm pretty sure he knows who he has to impress, and it isn't people on message boards who usually don't like his work anyway.

I think I'd be more surprised if Funko didn't do Orville Pops. I mean, they've done pretty much everything.

You have to have thicker skin than that to be in that industry.

Is there a Jesus Funko Pop?

 

[tomalak301]

I understand Funko Pops as much as I understand those fidget spinner things that were popular two years ago. I guess they are a collectors item, but more than that, I just don't get it. It is fun walking through the store and seeing what kind of Funko pops they have though.

 

[Mudd]

I want a Melania Trump Funko Pop.

Don't know why.

They don't have those but they do have Trumpy Bears...https://gettrumpybear.com

(yeah, those are real)

I'd like to see more Orville merchandise than just novels. A soundtrack CD would be nice.

 

[CaptainMurdock]

A soundtrack CD would be nice.

A thousand times yes!

 

[The Wormhole]

That's basically the appeal. Funko has gotten hold of a lot of properties including those that don't typically get merchandising lines, and has given them Pops. In some cases, it's the closest thing you can get to merchandise for a particular movie/show.

They don't have those but they do have Trumpy Bears...https://gettrumpybear.com

Wow. Trumpy Bear is actually really adorable. And the commercial is total win.

There's a Melania bobblehead. Not adequate.

That makes me sad.
