Speaking of merch, the first wave of Funko Pop! figures have already hit stores and it gives fans a closer look at the titular hero’s new vibranium-powered suit. Pop N Funko Pops shared photos of the upcoming Black Panther: Wakanda Forever line on social media and it’s already spread like wildfire.While the suit still carries the overall design of the original, the helmet features a design that is seemingly studded with diamond-like stones with gold accents.
