Five Nights at Freddy's Mystery Minis - Series 1 - Intro.

In August 2014, a game was released which started a franchise that bloomed in popularity. That game was Five Nights at Freddy's. I was a fan of the game since day one, finding it creepy and interesting for what it was. It was a game series that I was anticipating merchandise of for a little while. I didn't have to wait long, nor the many that also were craving merchandise, because Funko jumped on that train when they announced a ton of merchandise in early 2015. Some of that merchandise was a line of Mystery Minis.

In January 2015, a Funko catalog was leaked which contained early promotional images of the Mystery Minis, seen below. Big thanks to Negaduck9 for saving this image. It was really hard to find in this high of quality.

Horror Classics Mystery Minis - Series 2 - Review (Part 2), Conclusion

(if you haven't already, feel free to check out the Horror Classics Series 2 Introduction and Review (Part 1) Posts)

In the last post we covered 10 of the 20 figures in Horror Classics Series 2. This time we'll cover the last 10 and give my final thoughts.

Horror Classics Mystery Minis - Series 2 - Review (Part 1)

(If you haven't already, feel free to check out the Introduction Post)

There are 20 figures in total within Funko's Horror Classic's Series 2 Mystery Mini set. This review will be broken into parts, where Part 1 will cover the first 10. I'll list them in order of date of first appearance. However, Alfred Hitchcock kind of throws a wrench in that plan. To mend this I'll treat Alfred Hitchcock as 'first appearing' in his television show "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" (1955). Likewise, I'll say Cthulhu first appeared in H.P. Lovecraft's story "The Call of Cthulhu" as part of the magazine Weird Tales (1928).
Alrighty then, let's get right on into those figures!

Character: Graf Orlok (Count Orlok)
Appearance: Nosferatu (movie, 1922)
Rarity: 1/24

One of the, if not the, oldest vampire to show up in movie history. This figure is great for several reasons. It captures his creepy vibe, the pose is nice, and the figure is on the taller side too! The small detailed fangs are neat, and how they made his fingers extra long and pointy. A character that can't get any more 'horror classic' than this! Now I'll be waiting for another classic: Dr. Caligari! Those Germans and their cool horror movie monsters!

Horror Classics Mystery Minis - Series 2 - Intro.

The success of Funko's Horror Classics Mystery Minis first series brought another series of little movie monsters. In 2015 Funko revealed Series 2 within their annual catalog. Below is a scan from that catalog:

Godzilla - Chibi SD 2013 Figures

In 2013 at the New York Toy Fair, Bandai America revealed a new line of figures to add to their Godzilla line: 2 inch Chibi SD Figures. Chibi figures of Godzilla characters have had a good following in Japan, but this was something not really seen outside that country. In my opinion the Bandai America line was starting to go stronger around this time with the release of King Caesar and re-releases of previously popular molds. It quickly let me and other fans down as they didn't follow-up on products, and teased but never delivered. They did, although quick lived, deliver well with their small Chibi line.

In my last Post, I went over 10 of the 16 figures in the Horror Classics Series 1. I will now go over the last 6 and also give my final thoughts at the end.

Character: Chucky (Scarred)
Appearance: Bride of Chucky (movie, 1998)
Rarity: 1/144

Another very rare variant, this time of Chucky in his fourth movie. The scar effects blend really well into the figure. I was very impressed with the regular Chucky figure, so these little scars add even more impressive detail!
