Michael Jordan’s college days with the UNC Basketball program will be turned into the form of a FunkoPop! as the company announced three new versions this week

If you’re a big North Carolina Tar Heels fan, Michael Jordan fan or both and collect things, then you’re going to be pretty excited about this.

Earlier in the year some Jordan POPS! from the company Funko surfaced as collectors scrambled to get their hands on them in a few different varieties. The first wave focused on Jordan’s professional career with the Chicago Bulls, coming in versions featuring the red jersey, black jersey and even white jersey.

But now the latest announcement will pay homage to Jordan’s days back at North Carolina.

Funko announced that new Jordan POPS! will be released sometime in the near future that are designed for his college days. The trio of figures will feature Jordan in a Carolina Blue jersey, white jersey and warmup. Take a look below:

There is no exact release date on the figures but usually it’s a few months before they release after the announcement. The Carolina Blue jersey version will also be a Walmart exclusive for release.

If these are anything like the first wave that was released earlier in 2019, you will want to jump on it and grab them as quick as you can. Several sites online will have them as will stores around the country. Good luck and happy hunting!
