Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? This is a topic that’s been up for debate for many years, although Bruce Willis himself says that it isn’t. Holiday film or not, however, action figures featuring the likenesses of characters from the film will still make for perfect Christmas presents. With this in mind, Funko has us covered!

Unveiled online by the famous toy company are five new Funko Pop! figures based on characters from the original Die Hard. It’s one of those sets that’s going to make you want every single one after taking just one look at the complete line. It includes a barefoot and bloodied John McClane (Bruce Willis), gun-toting villain Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman), a bloody Tony Vreski (Andreas Wisniewski) in a Santa hat, and, most amazing of all, Sergeant Al Powell (Reginald VelJohnson). In addition, an alternate version of Hans will be exclusively sold at Target stores.

Take a look at the full lineup below to see how amazing it is for yourself.

Pre-orders for these figures are now live, meaning you can place your order in right now. You can do so over at Entertainment Earth. The Pop! figures should be arriving sometime in November, just in time for the Christmas season.

While there Family Matters may have had a Pop! released for Steve Urkel, there wasn’t any for family patriarch Carl Winslow. This means that, to date, there haven’t been any Reginald VelJohnson action figures. This Al Powell figure will be his first, and it’s one of those Pop! figures we never knew we wanted until we saw it.

You can watch the trailer for Die Hard below.

Synopsis: New York City policeman John McClane (Bruce Willis) is visiting his estranged wife (Bonnie Bedelia) and two daughters on Christmas Eve. He joins her at a holiday party in the headquarters of the Japanese-owned business she works for. But the festivities are interrupted by a group of terrorists who take over the exclusive high-rise, and everyone in it. Very soon McClane realizes that there’s no one to save the hostages — but him.
