The Sid Vicious, Johnny Rotten and Steve Jones are on their way to the online store of Funko where they can be purchased starting on June 28, 2012. As part of the POP! Rocks brand vinyl collection, the [action figures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-toys-2) are a homage to the British [punk band](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zero-skateboards). As a major part of the initial punk movement in Britain, the Sex Pistols have had a lasting effect on the world of punk and rock. Their cultural legacy, ultimately, gave way to the birth of these memorabilia figurines that are a definite must for any major Sex Pistols fans. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celeb Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebproducts) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Cult Classic Remakes:** Opportunity for creating action figures based on iconic rock bands or movies with a strong fan following. - **Vinyl Collectibles:** Opportunity for producing vinyl figurines that cater to collectors and fans of various music genres or popular culture icons. - **Nostalgic Memorabilia:** Opportunity for capitalizing on nostalgia by creating merchandise that commemorates influential music movements and bands. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Toy Manufacturing:** Opportunity for toy companies to diversify their products and capture the market demand for collectible action figures. - **Music Merchandise:** Opportunity for retailers and manufacturers to expand their product lines and offer branded merchandise related to popular music artists and bands. - **Pop Culture Collectibles:** Opportunity for companies specializing in pop culture memorabilia to include music-inspired figurines as part of their offerings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Exclusive Rock Band Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guns-n-roses-collectible.md) - [Collectible Rapper Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-spice.md) - [Hyperrealistic Musician Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blitzway-kurt-cobain-figurine.md) - [Band-Inspired Collectible Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funko-pop-figures.md) - [Fur-Adorned Celebrity Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doja-cat-1.md) - [Toy-Themed Film Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funko-pop-movies-barbie.md) - [RPG-Inspired Action Figures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baldurs-gate-iii-1.md) - [Punkrock Band Tribute Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garbage-pail-kids-2.md) - [Collectible Historical Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thrilljoy-pix.md)
