Earlier today we reviewed Funko's line of Kingdom Hearts POPs and Keychains, and now we're going to give the set away to you! In this week's challenge one lucky winner will win the entire set of Kingodom Hearts Funko POPs AND the Keychains, while one runner-up will also win their own set of POPs.*
In our Design Your Own Kingdom Hearts POPs Challenge, users submit their own custom design for a Funko POP based on one of the characters in the Kingdom Hearts series. The winner with the most creative concept will win the entire set shown above, while the runner-up will win the set without the keychains.
Remember, we are judging based on concepts and creativity, not artistic merit. So your designs can be intricate:
Or rough:
But as long as they're great ideas, they all have an equal chance.
Before you get started, here are some important rules:
Deadline for this Challenge is 11:59 PM, PST, on August 11th 2017. You have one week to enter.
- We will not ship the sets internationally. You don't have to be a resident of the US or its domestic neighbors to enter, technically, but if you enter you must have a domestic address that we can ship these to, otherwise you will be disqualified. We are not responsible for what happens to the POPs once they leave our care.
- If you are underage, you must have the consent of a parent or guardian to enter, as we will be in need of your shipping address should you win.
- To enter you must post your design or concept in this thread before the deadline. You may post more than one design, or have multiple POPs in your entry, but you cannot resubmit the same piece again and again. Winners will be chosen based on concept opposed to amount of entries.
- You may submit a character who already exists as a Funko POP (IE: Maleficent, Beast, Minnie Mouse) as long as your entry reflects their unique appearance in the Kingdom Hearts Series.
- You may submit any character that's appeared in any of the games.
- You may make a composit photomanipulation based on previously existing POPs so long as the end result is a new character, you may also paint or sculpt a new POP.
- You may use the Funko POP youself website to generate your entry.
- Once we have decided, we will contact you privately before publically announcing winners. If we do not hear back from you within three days, we will pick new winners.
Thank you, and happy POPping! Special thanks to Funko, once again, for supplying us with these collectables!
*The sets provided to us by Funko did not include Carrier-Exclusive Variants.

Mh. :/ Wanted to enter, but this prevents me from doing so. Good luck to everyone else though!
Also, great contest, guys! So cool you're doing this.
I just realized something.... Wouldn't the examples Dandelion used be basically off the table? If someone decides to do them it'd essentially be copying instead of thinking of our own concepts...
I hope it's okay that I divided my 'set' into two images. Not enough room on the pages. I have dubbed them: "Terra and the Norts". Let it be known: Ansem and Master Xehanort were very difficult (their outfits belong in the same category as FFXII's wardrobe).
Note: Yes I know that POP figures have black eyes, I took a creative twist here because the colors ARE important! This was fun and I cannot wait to see the other entries pour in overt this week!
Part 1/2 ( I had to divide the set TwT)
Part 2/2
To All Who Participate: May your Heart be your Guiding Key!
Figured since Atlantica is a popularly disliked world no one would do the same pop I made. Personally I liked the world so here is Dolphin form Sora!
You gotta host the image somewhere like imgur, the picture you attached didn't show up
Sorry, I made an account just for this contest so I am new. I put the imgur, the link is below. I might put some more out there, so I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, good luck to all!

Made a set of seven. I was originally going to leave them uncolored, but this was a great time for practicing digital coloring.

Good luck to everyone entering and have fun!
Here's my entry. Hope everyone has fun making these pops!
Here's a Roxas for the contest!
I don't think the other link worked, so here's a newer version of my submission just in case
These were actually fun to make x3

Man, everyone in here is so talented. This really makes me wish there were pops of the OCs
In our Design Your Own Kingdom Hearts POPs Challenge, users submit their own custom design for a Funko POP based on one of the characters in the Kingdom Hearts series.
You may submit any character that's appeared in any of the games.
You may make a composit photomanipulation based on previously existing POPs so long as the end result is a new character, you may also paint or sculpt a new POP.
Ok, I don't know if I quoted this correctly but I have a question:
So can we make a new character as long as it's based on the appearance of an already existing character in Kingdom Hearts or does it have to be an already existing character?
I've already started drawing based on either of these things, but I just gotta make sure >_<

That was a little difficult to read. I meant you could use an existing pop as the base to create a new pop based on an existing character. Canon characters only, but in the future I think an OC contest could be fun.

Okay, thanks for answering so fast!

I'm sorry, the link didn't work. Be sure you're pasting the url they give you once it's hosted
Question! May I enter, but if I win give the prize to another KHI member? You see, I live in Europe so I understand I can't be eligible to the win, but is it possible for me to enter and then to gift the eventual prize to a KHI user from the States? [spoi]cuz I'd like to participate and give this as a gift to our beloved Chuman =3= [/spoi]
Yeah, I think that's fine. Of course, we'd have to get the person's address if you won, but I don't see why not.

Okay, well here are all my entries:
I tried to post some of these yesterday but they didn't post for some reason >.<
Well, I thought I would throw my own idea for a set into the ring. Even though less talented art is allowed, I'm sorry it is not to good. Anyways, about the drawing, after the previous KH3 trailer I really found myself liking the giant robots called Gigas, and in Pop figures, i really like the Dva pop with her mech, so I liked the idea of something similar with Gigas. With the riders, I did not want to resort to just having toy Sora along side with Powerform and Guardform toy Sora, so I thought it was a more interesting Idea to use one of the Toy heartless in the new trailer, and have Donald and Goofy work together to pilot a Gigas. the riders themselves unfortunately do to have a accessory like a keyblade, or the heartless's gun since they need to have their arms up and holding the joysticks to the Gigas. Anyways though, thank you for allowing even less talented people, when it comes to art, enter the contest, good luck to everyone.

This contest was a bad idea because now I want everyone's designs to be actual Pop figures ;~;
So many great and talented entries! And then here I come with this joke, oh well... Here I go embarrassing myself ...

I should have said something in the first post but if you're a new user your posts don't show up immediately because of a spam filter to make sure you're not a bot. We see them, don't freak out! Thanks to everyone who entered, we'll let you know who won ASAP
I feel like Dandelion is practically being like Axel here since it's a day and half later and we (or at least I) don't know who won (I'm not trying to come off as impatient, but I really want to know!):

A day and a half isn't that bad of a wait time. I say that having waited several months for KHII volume 4 to be translated and distributed legally. I am sure that the admins are just trying to get their thoughts gathered. Remember, they likely have busy lives. Though the comparison to Axel is priceless.

Yeah, you're right, it's not really that long of a time to wait...
And about your designs, I really liked the way you drew those! They were so cute and adorable!
Yeah, it's not just me judging and we have staff from all over with different schedules, it will take a few days.

I'm sure that contestants can be patient enough to wait as long as needed for you guys to decide. I'm just looking forward to seeing the verdict. I think the most fun part isn't the winning (granted that is always a nice feeling). I think the most fun I've had was seeing the different entrants ideas and designs shared where all can see.
My best to you and the rest of the KHI staff.
