This is Funkoween: Celebrating Must-Have Scary POPs
This is Funkoween. This is Funkoween. Funkoween! Funkoween! Funkoween!
Dust off those Funko POP Vinyls you've been collecting over the years and assemble them - just like the Avengers about to take on Thanos in End Game. Today, we’re celebrating Halloween inspired POPs, from the out-right scary to the absolute must-haves, so you can put together a frightful line-up of your own.
To celebrate what I am calling Funkoween, we’re taking a look at six of my favourite, scary and most relevant POP Vinyls, available to collect.
You'll be able to find some of these figures available at Wayland Games, alongside more of your favourite characters from Funko - the less scary ones. From the Pop Marvel 80th vinyl figures to Dragon Ball Z and Game of Thrones, and more.
How many of these Funkoween POPs will show-up in your line-up? Let's find out.
1. Scary Face Jack Skellington POP! Vinyl
To begin highlighting the frightfully fantastic merchandise from Funko, and probably the most controversial choice to start: A Nightmare Before Christmas.
Why is this controversial? Well, is it considered a Christmas film or a Halloween film? For the purpose of this blog, it's a Halloween film, and it's a classic!
The Scary Face Jack Skellington POP! Vinyl takes an iconic moment from the film (no spoilers around here) and captures it entirely. This is a must-have POP! for fans of A Nightmare Before Christmas, and would look great centre-front of any Halloween collection.
2. Scream Ghostface POP! Vinyl
Moving on with a POP for fans of hardcore horror and the classic horror film Scream. With the new movie in development, what better time than now to touch upon this Ghost Face POP! Vinyl.
Truly capturing the essence of the suspect character, this is the perfect addition for a line-up built on horror film masked killers.
3. Pop Vinyl Horror Carrie
Another horror movie moment, this time encapturing an iconic scene in the film Carrie. This Carrie POP! Vinyl is based on the moment Carrie is humiliated by a prank on her prom night, and finds out she has telekinetic powers.
Another highly collectable POP! for those of you who are looking to build an eerie themed collection.
4. Batman Arkham Knight Scarecrow
Now, one for all of the gamers, rather than film buffs, with an assortment of Funko collectables; the Batman Arkham Knight Scarecrow POP! Vinyl.
This fearful fictional supervillain would fit perfectly headlining any collection, but be careful of his syringes and fear toxin.
5. Rocks Rob Zombie POP! Vinyl
This next POP is a great starting point for new collectors, and those looking to create a Halloween-tasic line-up: the Rob Zombie POP!.
While widely known for being in the band White Zombie, Rob is also known for directing the remake of Halloween (2007) featuring the very well known Michael Myers.
6. Batman Red Rain POP! Vinyl
Finally, based on the Batman & Dracula graphic novel trilogy, the last POP to feature in this Funkoween is the Batman Red Rain POP!.
The perfect collectable to add to your collection, cause well, who doesn't love a vampire bat!
If you’re looking for inspiration for your collection, check out this great collection of Funko POP! Horror / Halloween figures by Haunt Former - it's one of the most impressive displays I could find.
Haunt Formers collection is made up of all the essentials you would expect to see in a Halloween POP! collection. Michael Myers (Halloween), Gizmo (Gremlins), Jason Voorhees (Friday 13th) and even a 6 inch Stay Puft Marshmallow Man(Ghostbusters).
