Are you a fan of Guy Fieri and want to show your support? Besides watching his shows and buying his cookbooks, you can now buy the Guy Fieri Funko Pop!
If you’re a fan of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives or just love Guy Fieri in general, you can now get the chef in toy form. The Food Network personality is getting his very own Funko Pop.
But the question is: will anyone buy this? Also, how did Funko Pop think to make a Guy Fieri Funko Pop? Was there a call from his fandom? Was there a petition?!
Whatever the reason, it’s available to pre-order now and comes out in May and it kind of, sort of looks like him. Although, the blonde of his beard could be mistaken for cheese falling out of his mouth. Honestly, it works either way.

The toy-version of Guy also features his signature flame shirt, black sunglasses, and bleach blonde spikey hair. He’s also holding a cheeseburger just in case anyone accidentally mistakes him for someone else (not likely).
I love a Funko Pop as much as the next fan. I have over twenty of them. But is this going too far? How big is the market for Guy Fieri merchandise? Will there be a Rachel Ray or Bobby Flay one next? (I hope not.)
While Funko Pops have been created for just about every pop culture icon, do Food Network stars really qualify? Guy Fieri is very polarizing. You either love him or hate him. But is that enough to make him into a toy? He did get his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame so maybe a Funko Pop is the next step.
