Funko has revealed the next Pop figure to arrive in its quickly growing Pokémon series. This time, it's the ever-so-adorable fire Pokémon, Charmander.
The figure has been teased in the tweet below, with a blog post also being shared which gives us a little more info. A May release date has been set, along with an image of the product which we've shared below and a brief description:
"Grow your Pokémon team with this famous Pokémon! Charmander’s tail will flare up when it gets angry, but this Pop! Charmander will be happy to join your team! Charmander can typically found in hot, mountainous areas, but this Pop! Charmander should be easy to capture without a trek to your nearest mountainous region."

Charmander isn't a surprising choice, of course, what with Bulbasaur being the last Pokémon to be revealed for the lineup. We'd be pretty willing to bet Squirtle will be next, so keep an eye out for that one.
Do you collect Funko Pop figures? Have you already ordered the Bulbasaur model? Let us know down below.

I need this my starter of choice and I think it looks great, the eyes don’t seem off like the Pikachu.
#455. What's the chance there's someone with a room stacked with all of them?
Thanks, I hate it. Kill it with water.
There is no "my next Funko Pop".
Ever.
Saw the thumbnail and thought it was Sackboy and Little Big Planet was coming to Switch.
You’re drunk, brain. Go home.
Nice! I still need to grab the bulbasaur tho.
Why must I bear this burden
His eyes look like they wanna kill, but cute anyhow!
thanks for the heads up! Got it on Amazon
@RazumikhinPG Damn, I was gonna say that.
Ehh, Amiibos look better than Funko Pops even if they cost a little bit more.
Eww it looks hideous
I know that the black eyes are part of Funko Pop's design but I just can't get behind seeing them on a Pokemon. Besides that though, this is pretty cool!
It looks awesome! The best Pokémon so far
It definitely looks better than Bulbasaur where the eyes are involved IMO. It's kinda...cute?
Who buys this crap anyway?
@Sandro89
Hipsters with zero taste.
These funco pops are the absolute worst. They're ugly minimalistic, souless 'trendy' fadish takes on our favorite characters that already look 1 million times better than these lamo renditions
@Wavey84 Not all the things are bad or worse than other alternatives. For example, the Dennis Nedry POP is much better than the licensed action figure.
Nothing is my next Funko Pop because I absolutely hate those things. Give me Amiibos any day of the week.
@Octane There's probably 455+ people out there who have all of them.

Also that isn't a picture from my collection, no way, no how.
I collect amiibos. I do not collect funko pop figures. Yet, I seriously can’t understand the hate these things get. It’s one thing to say they don’t appeal to me, but some people act like the purity of their favorite fictional franchise has been violated and all of human existence is dragged closer to hell every time a new pop figure gets announced, and I can’t help but roll my eyes at it. I think it’s just one of those things that people say they hate because it’s popular to do so.
I genuinely laughed out loud at twisted fire starter
Frankly, it's terrifying.
>Twisted Firestarter
RIP Keith Flint.
@SheldonRandoms Madness!
Nice to see people here aren't fooled by Funkos. (If you like them, cool. They're a cheap alternative)
Nenderoids is where it is!
(Still, is cool if something get's a funko pop where it didn't had anything beforehand)
Charmander is supposed to be cute... so why is this so creepy?
I don't get these Funko Pop things.
Cute, sure. But where's Squirtle, the one that truly matters?
Who even likes these?
I am for the Pikachu Funko instead collections.
Ewwwwwww. Its staring hungrily at my soul.
Pathetic that this website has finally stopped being dedicated to games and Nintendo culture, and has now decidedly turned into a manipulative, clickbait-quota, corporate billboard, a la Buzzfeed and Kotaku. It was one of the last ones to sell out to such a virus, too.
@AlohaPizzaJack I think it is a bit disingenuous to compare a crappy 90's toy to the kind of stuff we can make now. Manufacturing has improved immeasurably since then.
That thing is creepy. If I was to wake up with this staring at me, I'd go back to sleep assuming it is a nightmare.
Never got these figurines... They look HORRIBLE. I get nightmares.
I had such a pokemon) do not ask what happened to him
