The new and official line of Fortnite Funko Pops is finally here and cleverly incorporates in-game skins into Funko's traditionally whimsical style. This release should come as no surprise, as Funko is often on the forefront of pop culture and Fortnite is currently the biggest video game in the world.
The first run of Fortnite Funko Pops will feature 14 figurines. Each figure takes inspiration from iconic Fortnite skins and includes designs for Brite Bomber, Omega (in full armor), Tower Recon Specialist, Black Knight, Raptor, Cuddle Team Leader and more.
This initial run of Fornite Funko Pops will most likely be followed by later releases, as it isn't hard to delve deeper into the various skins within the game.
