Were Slipknot Planning New Funko Pops Featuring Jay Weinberg?

Were Slipknot planning to issue a new series of Funko Pop! figures bearing the band’s likenesses and featuring a figure of drummer Jay Weinberg?

That may have been the case, but Weinberg’s November 2023 departure from the band has cast doubt over what appears to be official Funko images of the proposed Slipknot dolls.

And while those images do appear to be official — they leaked last year — they don’t seem to align with anything currently announced by Funko. Regardless, the Funko fan page @FunkoPOPsNews on X (Twitter) posted the images of the six new rumored Slipknot Pops on Monday (Jan. 8).

But has the launch been canceled? See the Slipknot figures down near the bottom of this page.

Late last year, a Reddit thread on /r/Slipknot suggested the series had been “canceled in light of recent events.” Following the post Monday, which was then shared by other fan sites, some on Reddit theorized they will be released.

Yet it seems a bit difficult to to imagine that Slipknot would authorize the release of the new Funko Pop! figures featuring Weinberg after his exit.

In 2020, Pop! figures of Slipknot members Corey Taylor, Sid Wilson and now-former member Craig Jones were announced for release in 2021. They were part of Funko’s “Pop! Rocks” line.

Subsequently, there was also a metallic Corey Taylor Slipknot Funko Pop! doll.

Loudwire has reached out to Funko for comment on the rumored series with Weinberg.
