While it's great to see Funko getting more desired licenses for actual action figures I also wish NECA got this license instead. NECA would have crammed a lot more detail into them I'm sure. Funko had decent sculpts, but the sculpts themselves were a little soft. Also while I like Fury abroad I have a hard time believing that these will do remarkably well.

While Mad Max is a beloved franchise, like Planet of the Apes I don't think this will have strong figure support from a wide audience, not to mention that it's been over two years since fury road was released. I don't think anybody is really talking about or clamoring for more Mad Max. Call me crazy, but I don't think we'll see too much from this.

The good news is that typically Funko releases a bunch of different figures at once from the get go so we'll probably get st least three or four main characters when the line launches.
