So who's ready for season three of Orange is the New Black? Funko certainly is and recently celebrated the upcoming premiere of the new season on Netflix by releasing a series of new Pop! figures featuring all our favorite characters from the show.
Not only do the new Pop! figures feature Piper Chapman, but there's also a figure for Piper's on-and-off-again girlfriend Alex Vause, as well as Red, Crazy Eyes and even George "Pornstache" Mendez.
If you're wanting to get your hands on these collectibles, though, you still have to wait another month to grab them: the figures are set to go on sale at select retail establishments (as well as at various geek culture cons) in July.
In the meantime, you can check out the announcement about the figures over on Funko's website.
Orange is the New Black tells the often-hilarious tale of Piper Chapman, a suburban woman who manages to get herself thrown in a minimum security prison for her involvement in a drug smuggling ring when she was younger. Her prison adventures follow not just her, but also her fellow inmates, who all have stories of their own to tell (some not so hilarious, but always entertaining).
The series has been a hit for Netflix, with high anticipation awaiting the third season, which will premiere on June 12. So mark your calendars, because that's sure to become a great weekend for some serious television binge-watching.
If you happen to live in New York, there is also OrangeCon, probably the first convention where everyone gets encouraged to wear orange jumpsuits.
So what do we know so far about season 3? So far, we've been teased that a new inmate could come between Piper and Alex, and that Vee might return (which spells bad news for a lot of inmates). Beyond that, though, as always, is anyone's guess. Expect surprises, drama, heartbreak and a whole lot of laughter. To quote Piper, there's more to prison than "strip searches and naked cat fights in the shower."
