01 Rides Batmobile

BATMAN & BATMOBILE

This figure and the car is based on the 1960s live action television series. Batman is well known for its campness of the possibly (closeted homosexual) duo batman and robin.

The front of the box

 The back of the box.

In the box you get a classic looking television series Batman and the Batmobile.

 

Here we see the steel looking pipes.

 

The bonet and front grill look awesome and kind of bat like. 

 

Got to love the bat-rims.

 

Rocket exhaust!

 

The interior is spare, there is a steering wheel. The peg is for Batmans foot.

 

Batmans foot has a hole, other figures can sit in the car but do not have a hole in their foot.

 

Batman can leave the car and he looks just as good standing beside it as he does driving. 

 

The figure is unmistakably Batman.

 

The paint and detail is good.

 

Cool bat-cape.

 Unfortunately the god bat-symbol on the bat-buckle of the bat-utility belt is off center.

OPINION:

I think the rides line is going to be cool, i can think of a few id like to see, The Time Machine, and Herbie would be great. What vehicles would you like to see in the Pop  Rides line?  

 

Arya Stark cant reach the breaks!

 

Captain Jack doesn't need the Black Pearl, but a Pop Black Peal would be cool.

 

Shelden cooper parked in the Batmobile, id like to see a Time Machine for the gang to sit in, and a Morlok.

 Its the zombie apocolipse as if you wouldn't go for a drive in the Batmobile!

A video review:

01 Jason Voorhees

Friday the 13th Jason Voorhees

 

Friday the 13th was first released in 1980 and has gone on to create one of the largest slasher/horror franchises. The movie has spawned some 12 other movies, and gone to television, documentaries, comics and has become a part of the horror movie mindset. 

 Jason Vorhees is the star and villain of Friday the 13th. He is usually killed at the end of the movies by a strong female character, but is resurrected, often by electricity, at the start of the next movie.

 Jason is the first Funko pop figure in the Movies line.

Um what? Why is this on the back of the box? Am i missing some lore from the movie? I think "get him, before he gets you" or "they'll thrill you!" might have made more sense...

Jason looks adorable. He may be cute as a bloody button but remember he is a supernatural killer hell bent of revenge.

 Jason wears suitably tattered clothing. You could say he was dressed to kill, but that would be a lame joke.

Jason wears his trademark hockey mask.

The back of his head is nice and lumpy, he did get killed a lot and his head reflects this.

He holds his signature weapon, the machete, which is metallic coloured and bloody.

Don't look too hard or he will give you his crazy eye stare!

For size comparison we have got some likely suspects in a line up. From left to right; Michael Myers (Halloween), Jason Voorhees (Friday the 13th) and Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare on Elm Street), all from the Funko pop Movies line.

How embarrassing! I'm sure it happens more than you would imagine.

01 Zombie

"Braaainnnsss"

Zombie

Zombie is the star of the computer game Plants Vs Zombies. He is an ordinary zombie, one of many who are simply attempting to cross the lawn in order to get into the house and eat the occupants brains. On his way he must deal with the tower defense like garden plants. Its a hard life being a hungry zombie.

 01 Zombie

Zombie is the first in the Plants Vs Zombies line of Funko pop vinyl figures.

Zombie is looking pretty accurate to his computer rendered design. He has greyish green skin and a torn up suit and tie. He is quite a well dressed zombie.

His amount of detail is rather good. I particularly like the leg visible due to the torn pants. The hands are nice and add to his cute zombie goodness.

 

Here zombie smiles for the camera. His mouth is very well done with broken teeth and that cheesy smile. His eyes are white and even have pupils, in a departure from Funko tradition. He also has both a nose and a mouth making him a very lucky zombie pop indeed.

Zombie will be the prized possession of any fan of Plants Vs Zombies or zombies in general for that matter. He is going to look dashing when combined with the walking dead zombies and the upcoming Army of Darkness deadites.

Here Zombie is causing more consternation for our poor White Walker. The White Walker is from the Game of Thrones line.
