42 Robin, Heroes, Classic Batman

Robin

Robin if from Batman which is a live action television series that aired in the 1960s.

Robin is number 42 in the Batman classic series Heroes line of Funko pop vinyl figures.

The figure is easily recognisable as Robin.

He has a black mask, a cute Funko nose and no mouth.

His costume looks accurate to me.

He has the bright colours of the original television series.

Due to the program being so campy and the characters so flamboyant many believe that Batman and Robin were not just partners in crime-fighting.

Batman and Robin, partners?

 Batman and Robin ready for a driving lesson.

Oh no! There is only one seat in the Batmobile, Robin is going to have to sit on Batman's lap, or find another ride.

I believe Robin had a motorbike, but he looks at home in the Batmobile.

More figures grace the Heroes Pop line.

First up we have Batman Beyond, what makes him beyond you may ask, well he is from the future, and has the funky costume to prove it.

The girlfriend of the Joker is a super villain in her own right having immunity to poisons.

We are all doomed, its Darkseid! Darkseid is an alien super villain with rock like skin, eye beams that erase his enemy's from existence,  energy blast shooting hands, multi dimensional -time - space teleportation, super strength, speed, genius, and endurance among other things, he is not to be toyed with.

 Who is this Nightwing? Its Robin, Batmans special friend in disguise.

I love the fact that these are not bobble heads.

Couples 2013

Blessed Lupercalia,  

Happy Valentine's Day, 

Good Darwin Day.

No matter which (if any) day(s) you celebrate, were going to have a look at some of the couples within the Funko pop range. Today its all about love, in one form or another.

The only couples i own at the moment, are Daenerys Targaryen and Khal Drogo from the Game of Thrones line. And a handsome couple they make sword and dragon in hand.

Here we have EVE and WALL-E, from the WALL-E movie. Some may argue but i do believe these robots are a couple.

Next we have probably the most recognised couple on television, do i even need to say it, Marge and Homer Simpson. They have the distinct honor of being 1st and 2nd in the television Funko pop line.

Kermit and Miss Piggy, from the Muppets  are definitely a couple and never got married. I don't know how good of a role model this relationship is, not due to its inter-species nature but due to the fact that Piggy is a psychopath.

Disney s Beauty and the Beast,a couple that show us no matter how different you are, you can be a good person, or that beauty comes from within, or always trim before a first date, im sure it was something along those lines.

Now a controversial one, simply because despite all appearances to the contrary, batman and robin were not officially a couple. The debate still rages to this day, with logical arguments from both sides. At the very least we can see a type of love as the powerful friendship that bound them together in there fight against the evils of Gotham city. The figures shown are from the Heroes line.


 

Despite many believing them a couple, He-Man and She-Ra from the Masters of the Universe line, are in fact brother and sister.  However the care and affection one feels for ones brothers and sisters is also a kind of love.

I always thought Disney s, Micky and Minnie Mouse were brother and sister, but no apparently they are dating. I am unsure of why they have the same last name, perhaps Mouse is more of a description they use in case someone mistook them for an emu?

One for the Darwin fans, the union of Jaime and Cersei Lannister created the horror that is Joffrey. And that is all i will say on the matter of this couple from a Game of Thrones.

  I hope you enjoyed out little stroll down lovers lane. Did i miss anyone? Who is your favorite Pop couple? Is there any couple you wish Funko would make?
