He-Man television Masters of the Universe

He-Man



 He-Man is the main character from the Masters of the Universe story, encompassing comics, cartoons and movies.


 

 He-Man is the 17th Funko vinyl pop figure in the Masters of the Universe Television line.




 He-Man is a good representation of both the original toy and the cartoon character. He is very nicely detailed and seems to be shorter and wider than most pops, this may more be an illusion due to the figures "squat" appearance.



 He-Man is very nicely detailed and his sword looks awesome.



He has a nice scabbard on his back.





His loin cloth and boots are nicely textured,



He-Man stands shoulder to shoulder with other shirtless warriors, Leonidas and Kahl Drogo.



He-Man faces off against his arch enemy Skeletor.




One interesting thing about He-Man is that he has no nipples, which is very bizarre. Leonidas, and Khal Drogo also have missing nipples but oddly Skips does have nipples.




Batman and Robin investigate the mystery of the missing nipples.

Beetlejuice Movies Funko Pop figure.

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!



 The star of Beetlejuice a 1996 movie that is truly awesome.



 Beetlejuice is the 5th in the Funko Pop vinyl Movies line of figures.



 He looks like he does in the movie.



 He has a big grin and green ectoplasm on his face.


His green hair is spiked and very cool.


He wears the striped suit to show he is a professional bio-exorcist and not some fly-by-night operator. 


 He fits in well with the other movie pop figures, here we have Jason and Hannibal.




Note that the eyes on the packaging are different to the eyes on my figure. This is common as most Beetlejuice figures have the black eyes. 





A "chase" figure is out there with box accurate eyes and is being sold for a ridiculous amount by evil ebay flippers. Unless you find one in the wild (for a standard pop price), i would pass on this variant.
The chances of me, in rural Australia finding a pop in the wild let alone a chase are extremely small, the one store that has just got pop figures in has a very small selection and i am sure any stickered pops would be off the shelves quite quickly.
