I've been buying Funko Pops of characters that made me uncomfortable as a kid, but the well has sort of run dry. It was fun to collect, but I admit that it wasn't as fun to display as I'd hoped.
So I packed most of them away, but kept out second form Cell from Dragon Ball Z. I then ordered the Android 18 Funko to go with him, and I think the two figures do a better job at capturing the level of discomfort I wanted from the larger display.
Did you know that you can twist the heads of Funko Pops? It might seem obvious to those who like them, but I had no idea they were posable until I started buying them.
Even though Dragonball Z is a show that frustrated me to no end, Akira Toriyama was extremely skilled at making characters that were the whole package. So many of them were cute, funny, cool, and menacing all in one.
His characters stand the test of time since so many of them are likable to any audience, and no matter how frustrating the plot could be, you'd stay tuned just to spend more time with your favourite character.
