Pop! Batwoman is a Funko exclusive. Pop! Hawkgirl is a Target exclusive.
These adorable Breast Cancer Awareness Funko Pops! figures are currently available for preorder. They are expected to ship in October.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This leaves you plenty of time to pick a few up for your collection and support a great cause.
DC Bombshells originated as a series of statuettes that reimagined DC leading ladies in 1940s pin up styles. The line was well received and consequently inspired variant covers of existing comic books. DC Bombshells even got their own comic book series.
Funko’s 2020 Breast Cancer Awareness collection included Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn, Batman, and Superman. The beloved characters are dressed in their traditional costumes in shades of pink. These figures are available for purchase! They deserve a spot on your shelf too.
A Little About Breast Cancer
According to BreastCancer.org, invasive breast cancer affects 1 in 8 U.S. women. Breast cancer can also affect men. It is more rare, about 1 in 833. An estimated 30% of newly diagnosed cancer cases in women will be breast cancer. This makes Funko’s contribution to breast cancer research all the more meaningful.
