Asajj Ventress Finally Gets a Star Wars Funko Pop

This new wave of Funko Pops includes figures of Count Dooku, Kanan Jarrus, ARC Trooper Jesse (with a rare Chase variant featuring a mask), and a cute two-pack of Hondo Ohnaka with his Kowakian monkey-lizard, Pikk. The Ventress figure is particularly noteworthy, as it’s the first Funko Pop ever made of that character and is a really impressive design. The Hondo Pop is also special, since the only previous version was available exclusively at Disney Parks back in 2019.
