I've got stray pops here and there from Funko from franchises I love, but don't seem like a strong collection. I never considered myself a serious collector, but that moment changed My favorite video game started getting the Funko treatment. Somewhere between the first wave of companion reveals and subsequent waves, I realized that my shelf was less “Funko display” and more “Baldur's Gate 3 Temple.”
There's just something about seeing the characters I love so much distilled into Funko form that hits in a different way. Maybe it's because the game is so character-driven, or maybe it's because I've spent hours staring at their faces in dialogue close-ups. Either way, this lineup has produced some truly standout figures, and perhaps one or two that feel a little more cursed than iconic. Wave three expands the roster, ranking the best and weakest Baldur's Gate 3 Funkos feel less like consumer commentary and more like a personal, moral obligation.

Pop! Astarion (shirtless)
I'm a huge Astarion fan with fan edits and TikTok memes to prove it. Without a doubt, he is my favorite character Baldur's Gate 3So anyone who really knows me might be surprised to see Astarian Pop Grace at the bottom of this list. Alas, I'm an Astarion fan, but I'm also a pragmatist. All of the Astarion Funko Pops capture the character's swagger to perfection, but this one stands out in the lineup because of its awkwardness.

I love the fact that his eyebrows are softened for this portrait, and his hand is occupied by a glass that probably isn't full of alcohol. However, everything else is a stark contrast to what could be a great addition to the Funko collection. It's just Astarion, but with sexuality as the odd punchline. We can start with the head being a bit too cute for the hyper-realistic muscles. But my biggest issue with this Funko is that it is completely inconsistent with the character it depicts. Astarion is cheeky, funny, polite, and openly sexual, yet his central plot centers on his resistance to the idea that he can be reduced to an object or his body. This pop, therefore, feels a little dull. The bare-chested Funko may be a must-have for die-hard Astarion fans, but it might be the weakest in an otherwise stellar lineup.

Pop! Astarion (blood)
This bloody version of the pale elf is probably the best of the Astarion pop variations. The figure is dressed in an elaborate costume that she wears BG3Epilogue of if the player chooses the Ascended path of Astarion. It boasts a sophisticated look, with ornate red and black coats, fine slacks, and elegant shoes. However, this regal appearance is starkly contrasted by the pool of blood on his face and devilish grin.
This is a specialty of Funko Baldur's Gate 3The most prestigious weapon. This is my favorite version of Astarion Pops so far, and it features one of the coolest costumes in the game. So, why is it so low on the list? Unfortunately, we've seen four variations of Astarion Pops between waves one and three. Many other characters deserve the same love that Astarion gets in the trade, and although this figure is at the top of my wish list, I think it's fair to give way to other fantastic collectibles in this wave.

Pop! advertisement
This is a dream come true for longtime fans of Jaheira Pop BG suffrage Companion from Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2 Comes with a defiant pose, two scimitars, and his iconic outfit. What's most amazing about this pop is the attention to detail, with pops of rich color giving this four-inch figure a dignified look – worthy of the legends he inspired.
Through and through, this pop idol is awesome. It sits comfortably in the middle of the third wave Baldur's Gate 3 Only collectibles because he's totally in between the two above BG3 The line is most impressive.

Pop! the emperor
There is no universe where a Mind Flayer Funko doesn't stand out. Emperor may be one of the most visually unique pops in the whole BG3 the lineup. The emperor is positioned mid-levitation at the base of the statue to create the illusion of floating, giving him an advantage over more static figures. It's a small design choice that makes a big difference on the shelf.
Magic: The Gathering's New D&D Drop is actually disappointing for one of Baldur's Gate 3's best characters
Magic: The Gathering's latest D&D Superdrop features Baldur's Gate 3's most iconic characters, but one set in particular falls flat.
This pop is completely committed to biting. Murthy looks really menacing with his stern expression from his tent. It captures the unsettling calm that defines Emperor throughout the game. That said, this is one of those figures that is more believable than Funko-fied. It's great as a representation, but it doesn't have the same playful aura that makes some pop iconic.

Pop! Raphael
The top person in this ranking needs to meet the same criteria that earned the top spot in the Lolth Pop. D&D The Funko lineup. Specifically, it had to embody all the qualities of an iconic pop silhouette while adding unique visual details. And in typical Raphael fashion, Satan pulls no punches.
Raphael is easily one of the hardest bosses Baldur's Gate 3. Funko somehow captured that threat, watered it down, and still preserved the theatrics of the villain. Raphael Popp depicts his Cambian Satanic form in stunning detail: his horns make him nearly five inches tall, while his wings extend just beyond the width of his head. The elegant hand beneath his face is definitely an echo of Andrew Wincott's BAFTA-winning performance—almost as if the figure is looking at you as if to consider making a deal with him. And, in this lineup, it's a deal that's absolutely irresistible.
