First, let’s talk about the tiny little characters included with new Funko POPs for Deadpool and Wolverine. Joining a naughty-looking Deadpool, we’ve got a deteriorating Deadpool head known as Headpool. Coming from the stranger side Deadpool’s ever-peculiar run of Marvel Comics, this is what remains of a zombie version of Deadpool, after losing the rest of his body. As you can see, his mask is tattered and skull exposed, and he’s wearing one of those old school helicopter hats. It’s quite an oddball inclusion from the comics, but the real fun will be hearing who may be voicing Headpool (unless it’s just Ryan Reynolds). In a similarly weird fashion, Wolverine comes with Babypool, which is exactly what it sounds like: a baby version of Deadpool with a cute little pacifier.
Moving up to slightly bigger characters, we’ve got Dogpool, who can be seen in the trailer slurping on Deadpool’s mask in slow motion. But more interesting is Kidpool, who is an alternate version of Wade Wilson, where he was a troubled boy at Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. Marvel says, “Wilson appeared to suffer from ‘conduct disorder,’ evidenced by his great difficulty in following rules and behaving in a socially acceptable way,” and while waiting for punishment after inciting a riot at the spring dance, Deadpool appeared and told Kidpool that he was needed to help save the multiverse. Perhaps that’s exactly what will happen in “Deadpool & Wolverine.”
What are the odds Kidpool is played by Walker Scobell, the kid actor who played a young version of Ryan Reynolds in “The Adam Project,” which was also directed by Shawn Levy? For now, we know that Kidpool has a homemade suit, as evidenced by the stitch down the middle of the head and sneakers. And of course, he’s only wielding squirt guns.
