The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’s streaming debut was apparently the most-watched Disney Plus premiere so far, a hardly shocking feat considering the company's growing subscriber base. Much in the same way, it isn’t too surprising to find out Funko Pop will soon be rolling out their Falcon and the Winter Soldier lineup.
While nowadays it’s pretty much a given that any Marvel production will get its own set of Funko Pops, it’s not usually expected that those will come in hand with plot spoilers, as was the case with WandaVision’s Fietro Maximoff and White Vision. More recently, Funko Pop figures for the Mortal Kombat movie included a subtle gear reveal for newcomer character Cole Young.

However, fans can rest assured that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’s Funko Pop set is absolutely 100% spoiler-free. The characters getting the bobblehead honor for this occasion are series protagonists Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes, each in their respective Falcon and Winter Soldier attire; while a John Walker suited up as Captain America and masked Baron Zemo complete the set for now.
The Falcon actually gets two Funkos, one with his not so trusty redwing and another with his wings fully spread out ready for take-off. It’s also worth noting that John Walker’s figurine is named “John F. Walker” as opposed to Captain America, so those who can’t even handle the thought of him temporarily usurping Steve Rogers’ identity can take consolation in the fact that even Funko Pop refuses to acknowledge him as their Captain America.
One notable absentee here is Karli Morgenthau, considering the gender-swapped Flag-Smasher actually represents the kind of MCU oddity that would make for an interesting collectible. Perhaps this is a sign that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier has different plans for the Flag-Smashers over the next few episodes, as could also be the case for the still unseen Power Broker, who could definitely shake up the plot very soon.
It’s definitely possible Funko will add more pieces to their Falcon and the Winter Soldier collection, let just hope it doesn’t spoil any plot twists that may reveal who the real villain is or if Walker eventually transforms into the Super Patriot or U.S. Agent. So be on the lookout for potential Funkos featuring the Power Broker, Battlestar, Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross, Isaiah Bradley, and just about anyone who's been rumored to show up in this MCU entry.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is now available on Disney Plus.
