Have been interested for some time but haven’t found high quality figurines of the band...these are too cartoonish for my taste. However, happy they have finally been offered in some form of action figures. Hopefully, someone on this board may know of another option if possible.

i know that they've been released & at least some hit the UK late last year - as when i finally ordered mine on the 27th of December, they had two of the models in stock, & the others on pre-order...
...though, to save multiplying up the postage, it's having to wait for them all to be (back) in; which is listed as being 3-4 weeks.
Ended up having to order from www.squizzas.co.uk, who i've not dealt with before - as Pop in a Box had (& has) them as sold out by that point...
...but, starting from Boxing Day, Squizzas added a post-Xmas 10% off whatever's on the item pages (it shows up in the basket & obviously the checkout), which made it pretty much the same price for a set for me.

Final Preorder prices after adjustments on US Amazon:
Andy $9.99 Simon $9.95 Nick $9.95 Roger $9.92 John $9.22
I have no idea what this means but it is kind of funny that Andy is highest price, and John is the lowest!
I wonder if the same number of units were made for each member.

I wonder if the same number of units were made for each member. i don't think it means anything, as Amazon UK currently have John & Roger as the highest priced ones & Nick as the lowest - www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=Duran+funko&rh=p_89%3AFunko - & when i was looking around in December for an alt supplier then John was notably higher when there wasn't a fixed price for new Pops.
Andy £11.44 Simon £13.47 Nick £10.69 Roger £15.47 John £15.41
(i'm certainly not advising anyone to buy from Amazon at those price as they're expensive for a set vs Squizzas - just commenting)
Tbh, i'd imagine the units to be the same for all 5 - but then clearly the numbers made won't be that high; well Duran aren't a franchise like Star Wars or Frozen or whatever.
Well, at ~$10/£10 they're not exactly expensive collectables - so whilst i would expect a couple of them (i'd guess Andy & Roger, but no knowing) to be discounted to get rid of excess stock in a few months, i'd imagine that most people would be buying sets.

What a joke When i've ordered from the UK site before they've chosen to send things as they've gotten them in at no extra cost - a bit like Amazon UK usually does when there's a mix of publication dates for books or whatever within a single order.
So assuming that it's the same as with the UK site & not a cock up, it's just a way of doing things...
...whereas although Squizzas had stock of a couple of them when i ordered, without making 2 orders & paying far more in postage then i've got to live with waiting until they're all in stock before receiving anything.
