As a long-time admirer of Tim Burton’s unique and eccentric style, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgic excitement with the return of Mars Attacks! Funko Pops in 2024. Growing up, I remember the thrill of collecting those iconic trading cards, and now, these figures are a delightful homage to Burton’s cinematic masterpiece.

This is about 12 years after Funko introduced Mars Attacks Pops based on the original Topp’s trading card series. The latest release is inspired by Tim Burton’s movie and features a Martian Ambassador, a Martian Soldier, and a Martian Spy Girl with a human-like appearance until her face starts peeling off. Entertainment Earth offers an exclusive Mars Attacks Martian Soldier Specialty Series Funko Pop that could potentially include a glow-in-the-dark Chase variant. Each figure is currently retailing for $11.99 at Entertainment Earth and $12.99 on Amazon, with an expected delivery in February 2025. You can view the figures below for more details.
The influence of the classic film “Mars Attacks!” remains strong even after nearly 30 years. This past year, Spirit Halloween introduced an impressive replica of a ray gun from the movie, which has kept the enthusiasm for the film burning bright among Halloween enthusiasts by offering eye-catching decorations.
It seems a Mars Attacks! sequel might be on the horizon, given Tim Burton’s success with Beetlejuice this year. Some fans even suggest that his upcoming project, Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, could be seen as a spiritual successor to Mars Attacks!. Currently, Burton is set to team up with Gillian Flynn, writer of Gone Girl and Sharp Objects, to remake the 1958 film. The original story follows a wealthy heiress whose growth into a giant after an alien encounter adds complexity to her troubled marriage due to her unfaithful husband. It remains to be seen what fresh concepts Flynn and Burton will bring to the table, but we’re eagerly awaiting developments!
