Name That…Round Head (Replay)
Actually, I think with the proliferation of vinyl deformed figures this one maybe harder now than when originally posted.: I really like this one. It turned out better than I hope. Comment away…
Name That…Ray Gun (Replay)

41st Elite Clone Trooper
The 41st Elite Clone Trooper uses the same basic body mold updated for the Vintage Collection, paired with a Phase II helmet. So far, so good, as the details sculpted onto the armor looks sharp and the articulation is really excellent.

Poor Jon Snow. I always figured he was destined for bigger things. He’s definitely a fan loved character. Following his uncle into the service he goes to serve as a “Watcher on the Wall.” Funko too the Game of Thrones license and ran with it. Legacy 6″ figures, Pop! Vinyls and Mystery Minis. I don’t […]
