Millennials, wake up! It’s time for us to feel old again because The Spice Girls’ ‘Wannabe’ is turning 30. One of the many songs that was the soundtrack of our childhoods is now well into adulthood. But beyond listening to it on repeat and reliving the utter joy it brings about, there are other ways to celebrate three decades of Spice Girls.

Funko Pop just announced that you can now get Spice Girls Funko Pops to add to your collection (or as your very first figurines). All five “girls” are available, and they are outfitted in the clothes they wore in that iconic music video.

This means Baby Spice in her white mini dress, Posh Spice in her classic little black dress, Sporty in her orange and blue set, Scary in her green tank and checkered pants, and Ginger Spice in her fishnets and yellow and red bodysuit. I’m hoping they come out with ones in different outfits soon. I need Ginger Spice in her legendary Union Jack dress.

Currently, if you want to buy just one or two, the individual Funkos are $14.99 each, and the full bundle is $67.45. As I was a HUGE Spice Girls fan, it is taking every ounce of willpower I have not to buy all of these. We will see how long that willpower lasts. I do have the Lego set that came out a few years ago.

But this isn’t the only Spice Girl news that has just come out. It was also revealed that Spice World (one of the few movies I have seen on opening day) will be headed to streaming soon.

It seems like the rights to the film were all over the place, but according to Mel C, the girl group now fully owns the rights, and it will be streaming in the “not-so-distant future.” Mel C said this on the Louis Theroux podcast and it was reported in Deadline.

I cannot wait to rewatch this movie again. From what I remember, it’s a wild ride (there are aliens involved), and I can’t wait to get nostalgic.
