Funko Sci-Fi Mystery Minis

I pre-ordered these months ago, and they finally arrived! I love the Funko mystery minis, they're great little figures.

So this series of mystery minis are all sci-fi themed filled with a plethora of characters. In total there are 17 figures and 13 characters.

The characters available are: Xenomorph (both normal and metallic), Predator (normal, bloody, and "invisible" clear versions), ET, Captain Mal, Jayne, Robby the Robot, Tron (normal and glow in the dark), Spock, Robocop, The Rocketeer, Judge Dredd, Mars Attacks Martian, and Metaluna Mutant.

Out of these figures I really wanted: either of the xenomorphs, any of the predators, Captain Mal, Jayne, Robocop and Judge Dredd. But to be fair, I like these figures so much that any would suffice.

So let's take a look

The figures are a little less glamorous when they're out of the boxes and just left in their blind black bags.

Anyway, I ripped the first one open and found...

Glow in the dark Tron! Great looking mini fig, brilliant colour. Really captures the look of the movie character and even includes the throwing disc.

Second figure I got was probably one of the figures I wanted the least... Look I'm a Wars guy.

But don't get me wrong, this is another great looking figure with really neat paint. And it's fun that Spock comes with the weapon that he fought Kirk with in that one episode... I'm sorry, don't judge me.

And lastly I got one of the figures I really did want!

Murphy!! The real proper Robocop! (Not a fan of the Robocop re-make, I won't get into it) but this guy, is great!

Amazing sculpt, likeness and paint. Just great. Love this guy.

Like all the Funko mystery minis, these don't have any articulation, but when the mini figs look this good, articulation isn't needed.

I'd really recommend these if you're a fan of sci-fi or just the Funko mystery minis in general. Great stuff.

Go Figure!

NECA NES Robocop

Robocop is one of the best, most violent and most visceral action movies the 80's had to offer. This guy had to be mine for a couple of reasons: 1. I don't own a Robocop figure; 2. It's an excellent looking figure; and 3. it's Robocop that matches in with my Jason and Freddy!

Colour wise, he's a really dark and beautiful metallic blue with even lighter blue highlights. He has some black shading on his mouth which gives it some nice highlights.

Robocop is a brilliant likeness to his movie counterpart, he looks fantastic! I really like the look of this figure, great details in the helmet, shoulders and those pistons on his ankles are great. But the real stand out is the spring loaded hip holster that opens with a switch at the back and stores his gun. My figure seems to have a bit of an issue that the holster is a little fragile, but it's not so bad that you can't use it.

Articulation wise, Robocop is pretty good. His head moves side to side and up and down, he has armpit pivots and his arms move up and down, and he has a mid arm swivel (no wrist joint). He can swivel at his diaphragm, on my figure his left leg moves at his hip and moves up and down and his knees bends - this isn't the case on his right leg which his holster is on. His ankle doesn't even really move on his holster leg. His ankle on his left leg though moves his foot up and down, which interacts with the piston which is a really cool little feature.

I really like this guy, the highlights really work and look as though light is bouncing off of his metallic frame. This all makes him look like his videogame appearance. For me though, it's the sculpt that stands out. The feet and hands look so robotic, the pistons are very cool, his holster is a great touch and all the small touches in his armour just make this guy look like his movie counterpart.

Your move, creep! Go Figure!
