NewJeans are back in the headlines, but not for the reasons you may think. The K-pop girl group haven’t released new music since last spring but Hanni, Haerin, Minji, Hyein and Danielle broke news earlier this month after announcing a name change to “NJZ,” following a long-running dispute with their label, ADOR.
Now, the group is in the spotlight once again, thanks to the release of a new Funko Pop collection offering miniaturized versions of the girls. The officially-licensed collaboration features five vinyl figurines inspired by each member’s look from their “New Jeans” era (from their 2023 EP, Get Up).
The mini figures measure approximately four inches tall with realistic outfits, unique hair and makeup looks for each member, and even fun accessories like nail polish and jewelry. Officially released March 11, the NewJeans Funko Pop characters are available to order now on Amazon and could quickly become a collector’s item: the figurines (and display boxes) were created before the group’s name change, which means it could be one of the last releases (music or otherwise) bearing the “NewJeans” moniker.

NewJeans announced in November that they were parting ways with ADOR, a subsidiary of the K-pop management firm HYBE, over allegations that the label violated their contract. ADOR, however, has maintained that their contract with NewJeans “remains in full effect,” and has said they expect the group to continue releasing music under that name.
