True Blood:
Funko are launching a series of True Blood vinyl pop figures to commemorate the final season of True Blood.
Eric Northman is a bit disappointing, he looks kind of generic. I like the little fangs and the blood. He looks like a cool vampire pop but he should be taller and i don't know somehow hotter.
Alcide is more like it, very nice figure and immediately recognisable.
But oh my gods, where are the poor werewolves nipples? Is that what the last season is all about? Some villain has stolen Alcides nipples and the gang have to get them back!
A wolf Alcide might be cool also.
Pam is such a cool character, i don't know if they nailed it with this figure. I am undecided, i like the teeth and the outfit but i don't know if it screams Pam? Thoughts?
Lafayette is pretty cool, he looks very nice, I don't know what else they could have done to make a pop anymore Lafayette. I also applaud them for making another gay character pop! It can be easy for company's to bow down to bigotry and Funko has done well.
Now we need Jesus and Tara, to go with Lafayette.
Bill is a rather generic bland looking character, i wish Funko luck in making him look unique.
Bill Compton figure will be on sale a few weeks after the initial launch.
Verdict:
I feel these are a bit hit and miss. I really want to like them, but something seems missing somehow with a few of them. Ill reserve judgement until i see them in package. Lafayette is a must by for any non-bigoted collector, i think Sookie and Alcide will find her way onto my shelf as well.Release:
July 2014 (With Bill a little later)
