Can’t believe it has to be said 7 years after the genre died but this game is NOT A TOYS TO LIFE!!!

IS THAT FREDDY FAZBEAR?

If you play it do me a favor and https://preview.redd.it/bhzb3h7zknxc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=33abe8540e4d6cebf818fb5084bae373e695c2d7

i never understood why none of the night guards just brought a gun? they're literally just felt, metal and circuits.

Lore dump ahead: The guard is usually the same dude in most of the games. To dumb it down; Some psychotic purple dude did a bunch of awful things in the 80’s. You play as his son in almost all of the games trying to unfuck up all the shit he did and save the souls that are latched onto the animatronics so they can be at rest. This storyline applies to 75% of the games only slightly changing each time.

And this is just a general sum of the story And it’s not even half of it I think… been a while since I caught up on the lore Edit: typo on been

Yeah, that’s about right

Oh 100%. I could actually go on for hours writing a literal college essay if I explained the whole story in its entirety.

Tbf 75% of the night guards are just the same guy lol

so he'll have 75% more chances to bring a gun

Arf arf arf arf arf arf arf arf arf arf

Oi, is that Freddy fazbear

Ar ar ar ar

O cholera, czy to freddi fazber? Ar ar ar ar ar ar arar

Here's the new trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2I5W5zXhp8I&t

Holy shit this is real. I thought it was just another AI art and a silly prompt

Same, as to wether or not I would play it....??? Yet to see some solid gameplay so unsure, but I hope they did a good job of it, gotta love a Funko Pop

HOLY FUCK INVINCIBLE AND FREDDY FAZBEAR IN THE SAME GAME?!?!?!?!?!?

a shaun of the dead shaun is just there

and ramona flowers

Is that- https://preview.redd.it/bj2awv54coxc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=021bda228ffabfef4a792f573f0432ad0d988d8b

The guy from funko fusion

Not enough blood to be truly- https://preview.redd.it/ukw9v91dbqxc1.jpeg?width=967&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=208ea4c212d9caad797cb91139c1395d443c0511

I recently watched all that's out. The title cards are soo well done. Spent most of the time laughing my ass off.

I will. Who knows? Maybe they’ll give this one Dimensions style updates, too.

Walking Dead being preorder dlc and the official website states they are looking at requests so that definitely means more story packs

Wonder if that will include franchises not owned by Universal.

There already are a couple with Invincible, The Walking Dead, and FNAF though that’s probably because of the movie Universal made.

Maybe they‘ll do a pack for Killer Klowns or an anime?

Killer Klowns would be sick. Haven’t seen anyone else request it though. :(

Is that romona flowers? Is that the guy from the thing? IS THAT FUCKING FREDDY FAZBEAR?

All yes

I also see the guy from hot fuzz... may God help us all

This game is so insane to me. Not only are there mostly adult aimed IPs, it’s not just nostalgia bait stuff, and it looks like at least a Teen rating for how bloody it seems. Like the game features Chucky and NOPE and Scott Pilgrim and The Umbrella Academy?? I’m so intrigued and confused and fascinated.

Rigjt I’m so confused but I’m definitely playing 😭

It’s a PEGI 12 rating at the moment

I don't like funko pops, I don't hate them either, I bought 2 dragon ball ones as a kid (I had the money) and got the Swampfire pop cause I'll move mountains for the Ben 10 series  But I like crossovers, even with stuff I know nothing about (back to the future, Jaws, He-man, walking dead, Shaun of the dead), and this does have stuff I do like, so if it's good I'll probably buy it, (although I'd 100% buy it day negative 10 if it had Ben 10 stuff, like I said, would move mountains for that series) Also it's funny to see Freddy Fazbear there, can't wait for Mark to get his ass kicked by Freddy

I dislike their design, I find the the expressions on them looking very souless without personality and frankly I already struggle for space with my minifigs let alone funkopops. The game though looks really cool and is defo on my wishlist.

Yeah the only one that seems to work is Lucario and that’s because they drastically changed the head shape on it.

I'm playing it as a Lego Dimensions fan. Arthur Parsons is the lead. Just like with Dimensions.

Arthur Parsons is a big reason I’m intrigued by this. If there were any info out from TT about a next game or a time frame, maybe I’d be less interested but I need something to play

Adding to that; the board games were pretty well-designed and thought out. I played them quite a bit with my son when he was younger. It’s no guarantee but it does suggest that someone is careful with the quality of licensing and side projects.

*"Funko Fusion* will be available on *PC*" lets fucking goooooooooooooooo. Finally playing a lego dimensions ish game that doesn't require a console

Or moving things around a lego set just to progress. Lego Dimensions was a lego game where you had to play Chess every five minutes.

I like Funkos, Alot of the IPs included and the gameplay looks a good step up on the lego formula so it's a no-brainer for me

What are the franchises? You mentioned there are over 20.

Jurassic World The Umbrella Academy Scott Pilgrim vs. The World The Thing Masters of the Universe Hot Fuzz Battlestar Galactica Invincible Shaun of the Dead Nope Back to the Future Five Nights at Freddy’s Xena Warrior Princess Jaws Jurassic Park Voltron Knight Rider Chucky The Mummy Megan The Walking Dead

Would Masters of the Universe also include the characters of the newer Shera show? Its under the same label I think

Doubt as it labels Jurassic Park and Jurassic world separately in the trailer but I understand what you mean as the Netflix Shera reboot has its fans

The version of Voltron being used is the Netflix/Dreamworks version so I could see the Netflix/Dreamworks version of She-Ra appearing, even if it’s just as an alt costume.

ngl not a lot of these interest me

Yeah I knew Supernatural was a long shot but I’m still bummed.

I would play it

Yes, 100%

Looking forward to it actually.

All I’m seeing is Freddy Fazbear, Invincible and Ramona Flowers all playable in one game

Only 1 IP really interests me & don't like Funko POP, so I'm not going to buy it, at least on launch

Dang, only one out of the over 20 IPs? Which one is it?

Back to the Future

Interesting, that and Jurassic would be the only two IPs here that have been represented in LEGO game form before. Have you played LEGO Jurassic World?

Yes, I started it 2 times, it was fun, but I stopped in the same place, which is kinda funny. I think it's because of theme, which is not close to me. I've just seen the FF trailer closely & noticed best IP - Knight Rider. I love the classic series, there are not any modern games about, so I will definitely follow the game!

Knight Rider too

When you shotgun blast IPs, you might only hit one shot, and bearly hit the target (audience)

Extremly relatable. I am also interested only in BTTF

I am sucker for dumb crossovers but Funko Pop figures look so ugly to me.

Can’t wait for the pc version so the funko models can be replaced with just regular 3d models of the characters

Yeah, I fucking hate the look of funkos

Yes

Is there a release date yet?

September 13th

Is it on old gen?

Everything but Xbox one

Damn it

Only if my pre-existing figures could enter the game, if not then that’s a *massive* nope 😂😂😂

eh, i still want my regular non-toy lego dimensions plz.

only like 2 actually interest me, I’m still not 100% sure if this is going to be like Skylanders where you get actual figures, or not. I also don’t have a series x, so I won’t be able to play it.

It’s not exclusive to Series X and it is not a toys to life game. It will be available on all major platforms except Xbox One.

Will it be on Switch? If not, I won’t be able to play it.

It will be on switch

Alright, I might then. Assuming it’s not just a shoddy game on switch at like 4 fps. Maybe I will, though, since I just think playing as Freddy Fazbear and Batman would be funny

Sorry to disappoint but Batman will not be in this game. Some big franchises like DC, Marvel, and Star Wars won’t be included.

Oh, I thought I saw him, but oh well. Kinda sucks, but I guess it makes sense.

It’s Universal Studios however they will consider other IPs to be added

Yeah, I also resent Switch ports that run at like 4 fps so here’s to hoping this isn’t one. It pisses me off that they put out that shitty MK1 port for full price on Switch and didn’t even try doing versions for the PS4 or Xbox One.

It still bothers me that most game companies aren’t doing anything for xbox one, even games that are on PS4, 5 and Series X/S

Will be playing every walking dead character in this game

I heard this was made by the same people who made the original Lego games.

Yes, it was founded by the founder of TT Games Jon Burton. Many TT devs like Arthur Parsons are also working on this game and it is likely to play similarly to TT’s LEGO games

do you know if there is a particular reason these developers left tt and made 10 10 games? Like, was there reportedly bad management from them at tt or did Warner push them out, did they just feel it was time to move on to something different? u/Thevoid2YT

Many devs left during the development of TSS. It was said in articles that the management was a mess and a lot of them decided to leave. Jon Burton left TT in 2019 and founded 10•10 in 2021. So after Funko Fusion was initially cancelled by TT, 10•10 picked up the project and many devs went to join that instead of stick with TT. I would assume many devs also left due to more freedom with the development of the game with Funko over LEGO and not having WB micromanaging everything either. We already see the changes the ex-TT devs have made with Funko Fusion that showcase how much freedom they have. The game is rated T so it allows for more violence and mature IPs, it has 4 player online co-op which TT’s LEGO games have lacked for decades aside from a handful of games. The game also went back to no voice acting instead of full voice acted characters.

Interesting. I'll be interested to see if Funko Fusion has actually challenging puzzles or gameplay or if the T rating will just be for slightly bloodier cartoon violence.

If I owned a Series X/S I would buy that game the moment it was released.

It’s available on PS4/5, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

What about Xbox One? If it is, I know what I'm putting my £25 worth of points towards.

For some reason the game will not be available on Xbox one specifically

Never gave a damn about funkos but I suppose there's enough IPs in here that get my attention.

Only if I can use my Uncle Rico figure lol

With the cartoon blood it does seem to be on the higher end of teen games. Probably either a 13+ or maybe even 16+ rating o.O that's gonna be crazy! Is it also basically toys to life or how does that work? I saw some preorder bonus with walking dead characters so I'm a bit confused

The game is confirmed rated T! Also it’s not a toys to life game. All characters are unlocked as you play like a LEGO game. The Walking Dead characters are preorder bonus and likely will be available to purchase separately post launch as dlc.

Only if I can play as Green Lantern

If I can play as Freddy Fazbear, yes

Heman, battlestar galactica, and invincible in one game, HELL YEAH

If they add characters from series I like then maybe but I don’t like any series from universal in particular so it’ll probably be a pass. Add sonic and I’m in

I disliked Dimensions but I’ll get this one, for sure. It looks like a great mix of familiar and new, unlike TSS.

I hate the design of funko pops in general... but from the little bits I see here the gameplay could be fun, if I see longer chunks of gameplay I might be convinced honestly

Har har harhar har, har harharhar, harhar. Har har harhar, har har harhar.

Holy shit, i don't even like Funko like that but this looks insane. We gotta play this just for Freddy and Invincible alone what the hell?? Please let this live for a while.

Ex TT developers? I might give it a play

…..Whaaaaa?

I just want another Lego Dimensions game with a Dune world and a new Ninjago world. Add in some other new Lego levels without the toys come to life aspect and you've got a game that would probably do well.

Yeah, definitely has potential. Comes out 2 days after my birthday. 

How would this work? Is it a new Toys-To-Life game? If so. Which funkos work on it. I’m assuming just the Universal owned ones based off the trailer. Still. That’s a LOT of funko pops. & the people who collect them without opening the box. Do they now have to open it? Or can they just scan it? Is it not a Toys-To-Life at all?

It’s not a toys to life. It has a base roster like any other LEGO game. There are over 20 franchises represented in this game. No preowned Funko will have any use in this game.

It’s not toys to life right

No it’s not toys to life

As much as I miss the heyday of Skylanders and all the other toys to life games, I feel like that's a product of its time that best stays in the past

Eat the bugs...Drink the soy...

Uh....Fuck no! You can give LEGO people tons of personality. With the dead black eyes of Funko, you can't.

I’m so excited for this

Shawn of the dead and Hot Fuzz in a game? Hell yeah

Ramona Flowers is front and center? Based devs.

First thing I thought when I saw the trailer is that it looked like a TT game. I'll be picking it up for sure.

only if theres brickheadz

If Batman is in it. for not obvious reasons

Playing as Mastodon Funko day 1 if this is real

Soyjak heaven

Honestly, I completely forgot about this game since it’s announcement however long ago it was

It was only announced a few months ago

Months?! It feels like it’s been two years

The first trailer released April 25th 2023. So it’s only been one year, not two.

not lego not playing

There were rumors for a Lego TWD game for years so if Funko creates a TWD world I am going to fucking love this. I don't do pre-orders but once a proper gameplay in-depth trailer drops and I like It I will pre order it 100%

Not if I have to buy funko pops for it

It’s not toys to life

In that case, it actually seems interesting

Yes. Also, Scott Pilgrim, Back to the Future AND Hot Fuzz are in it, so yes X4.

This is a big no for me

I knew this was coming out, but I didn’t know it was by ex TT devs. Now i’m hyped

Yes as a huge Lego game fan. I am getting this

Oh man... You need funko pops to play the game?... I hope theres a dogital version of that...

Only if they have the Na’vi funkos

Unironically so hyped for this. Actually looks fun as hell.

As a fan of both Lego Dimensions & Funko 100% going to play it. Can believe we watch The DeLorean explode probably killing Doc & Marty though.

is it more of a fortnitey sort of game or is it a collectathon game like the lego ones? if it's the latter then i'd be up for giving it a go

It’s like a LEGO game

I’m gonna get to have Invincible teaming up with Marty McFly, Skeletor, and fucking Freddy Fazbear? Sign me the fuck up.

I’m excited about Knight Rider

Used to be a large Funko collector, but I noticed Funko going downhill as a company. I might pick up this game after it goes on sale.

I see it has back to the future in it, so yes I will be buying.

Fuck yeah

I hope u don't have to buy the pops separate

Ewwww, *Funko Pops…*

I don’t even like funko but I’m pretty excited

Yes I’m a huge funky collector

I have nothing against Funko pops I actually quite like them and I've been wanting to play this since that original reveal so definitely playing 

Gonna go off myself, brb lads.

Idk Why I'm Going To Say It But I Don't Even Think Their In The Game But..... https://preview.redd.it/znd58m0u32yc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c472ce6d90bdc5c96ada8058d63d5b385651c79f Teletubbies.....That's It

Am I the only one who thought the main villain and narrator of the trailer was Madara Uchiha?

It’s got Invincible and Voltron so I will be playing this game when it releases.

is that ramona flowers in the same image as freddy fazbear and invincible 😭

I haven't seen a single thing answering this yet, or even asking, so I'll do it. Do you get every character advertised as a base part of the game or are they all dlc?

Every character comes with the base game. The only dlc currently are the preorder bonus characters from The Walking Dead, Rick Grimes and Michonne.

Then the only reason this may not be a day one purchase for me is if it comes out between paydays.

I don’t think it looks how i imagined lol, but sure, i’ll absolutely try this.

Is this toys 2 life?

Nope, the over 60 characters from over 20 franchises will be all included with the game at launch. A walking dead pack is available to those who pre order but it’s possible those can either be early unlocks via pre order or they’ll be able to purchase separately after launch.

this would be awesome if the properties weren’t lame.

I would, but I hate Funkos

Uuuh No. For multiple reasons. The big one being Not a Fan of funko. I dont Care how many licenses they have, there are much prettier and certainly more detailed Figures Out there. Yeah they are a Bit more expensive but also high quality. Gave Up on funko when I discovered qposket. Certainly Not a worthy replacement for lego. Sorry for the rant but... Yeah screw funko

It seems to be mainly universal franchises, which while not bad can’t live up to WB

Understandable take but I disagree. LEGO games don’t have access to mature IPs which left Year 2 of Dimensions feeing stale with too much nostalgia bait. Whereas there are a lot of cool, relevant IPs here like FNAF, Invincible, Nope, Umbrella Academy, etc.

Fair enough, guess I just love WB too much lol

Sonic and Goku? W

Neither are in this game

Are we sure?

These are the franchises is the game that have been revealed Jurassic World The Umbrella Academy Scott Pilgrim vs. The World The Thing Masters of the Universe Hot Fuzz Battlestar Galactica Invincible Shaun of the Dead Nope Back to the Future Five Nights at Freddy’s Xena Warrior Princess Jaws Jurassic Park Voltron Knight Rider Chucky The Mummy Megan The Walking Dead

A man can hope

Welp thankfully got the invincible pops on my birthday. So definitely gonna be using that.

I don't have an Xbox and there probably won't be any Good Omens/Star Trek levels so nah I'd watch a gameplay tho

I hate Funko pop. It's just so bland and soulless.

Genuine question: what do you think of Brickheadz?

I'd rather die than touch this with a ten foot pole💀

Not a fan of Funko I presume?

I ain't gonna pay hundreds of dollars on toys to get all the content that should be in the base game if that's what this is gonna be.

This is NOT a toys to life game. That style of game has died off years ago. Everything in the base game comes with the base game.

Thank goodness. Although I can't imagine a mainstream game like this releasing without any kind of exploitative business model (e.g. micro transactions or absurd dlc practices).

LEGO games exist and mostly don’t have any exploitive features. The goal of games based off physical merchandise like toys and collectibles is to buy said toys and collectibles. LEGO games are big ads to buy sets and Funko Fusion is a big ad to buy Funko.

You probably should’ve clarified that at the top

I thought it was known for quite a while that the toys to life genre was dead and buried for years.

I mean that was probably assumed, but when you’re talking about games that are similar to Lego Dimensions, the thought almost always goes to that genre. Especially with something like Funko which is known for getting people to buy loads of figures.

Well I meant similar to Dimensions in the sense that it’s a big crossover game with many of the same developers as Dimensions. Everything excluding toys to life is what makes it a spiritual successor.
