Funko has made so many different POP figures based on 80's pop culture. Does anybody know why they haven't done figures of Maddie Hayes, David Addison, Ms. Dipesto and Herbert Viola? I for one, would be first in line to buy them. We need to make this happen. Anybody out there who knows the decision-makers at Funko, you need to tell them that we need Moonlighting to be represented in their product line. Thanks!!

Hi Judy, thanks for letting me know that Funko's website actually allows you to submit ideas for new figures. In the past I just emailed them thru the "Contact us" method and that went no where I'm sure. I just got done making my suggestions. I did 4 - one for David, one for Maddie, one for Ms. Dipesto, and one for Bert Viola. Please everybody, go to the Funko website and make these product suggestions. It doesn't matter if you're not a toy collector, or if you wouldn't buy them. (But c'mon, seriously, if you saw a David Addison or Maddie Hayes POP figure staring at you from the shelf at Target, you know you'd buy it.)
We want Moonlighting to be recognized for it's place in pop culture, and right now Funko is like THE authority on pop culture. If we all make our suggestions, somebody out there is bound to take notice. Thank you for allowing me to plead my case.

I put in a request too. Did you include a picture?

I was doing it on my phone and I had no idea how to add a picture. Did you?

No I didn't. I'm thinking they can figure it out if they actually take the request seriously.
Did you see on the site that you can design your own virtual characters? They don't have a lot of options but I tried to make a David and Maddie. They came out kind of close. I'll have to figure out how to save them and post them here.

It's interesting that if you read all the way to the end of this article about Funko, the author writes that he is really hoping for a POP figure made of the character Bruce Willis plays in the movie Hudson Hawk.
I say to Funko, make POP figures from everything BW starred in and we'll be thrilled. But, please start at the beginning with Moonlighting.

No, we can never forget Cybill. I'm hoping for a two-pack so Maddie and David can always be together.

It is one of my life's missions to make sure that Maddie and David become Funko POP figures. It is ridiculous to me that a show that was as popular as Moonlighting was back in the 80's is not represented as an important part of pop culture. If you want to see this happen as much as I do, please go to the Funko website where you can make product suggestions. If enough of us do it, then somebody over there will listen.
