However, it looks like some new Fall Out Boy Funko Pop! figures may officially be on the way. Although Funko has not confirmed the release just yet, a photo of the reported FOB figures leaked earlier this week.
According to the leak, Funko plans to release three new Fall Out Boy Pop! figures during the 2021 Funko Fair. The new vinyl figures are of Patrick Stump and Pete Wentz with their guitars in hand. Wentz is even rocking the guyliner in one of the reported releases.

So far, Funko has not confirmed exactly when these reported Pop! figures may arrive. However, the leak is already causing quite the stir. Although many Fall Out Boy fans are looking forward to getting their hands on these new Pop! figures, others are asking an obvious question. Why does Pete Wentz have two figures and Joe Trohman and Andy Hurley have none?

It’s possible that the leaked Funko image is only showing a few of the Fall Out Boy figures reportedly on the way. For now, we will just have to wait and see if, and when, the 2021 Funko Fair officially releases these new Pop! figures.
Over the weekend, Fall Out Boy performed for the first time publicly since 2019. To help celebrate Joe Biden‘s upcoming inauguration, the band performed their hit “Centuries” for the special pre-inauguration We The People event. As it turns out, Fall Out Boy have a surprising connection to the next President of the United States that goes back decades.
