About this deal

Luca: My favorite of the collection is Luca in his sea monster form. I love the optimistic look on his face and pose. The way he spreads his arms and curls his tail behind him makes it feel like he’s floating in the water, setting his pose apart from other Funko Pops. I also enjoy the light green and blue color scheme. It’s very pleasing and reminds me of beautiful pictures of a clear ocean. Following hot on the heels of the successful Game of Thrones range, the Funko Pop! Stranger Things dolls are a nice tribute to the pop culture of the '80s, revived in the famous Netflix series, which despite being ostensibly for adults, has started to develop a range of toys based on the show. You can even find LEGO Sets based on the Byres house and the Upside Down world beneath. Funko's Signature Design These collectable figures are a clear reflection of the enormous success this series has and how its protagonists became the visible faces of eighties nostalgia. As well as recording the interest that the 1980s raised in the general public, the fever unleashed by Stranger Things itself shows where creative recycling can lead to mass television.

For those unfamiliar with this relatively new phenomenon, the dolls from the collection are approximately 10 cm high and come in an attractive box with a window. Their huge heads have a peculiar rectangle shape with rounded edges and their size is equal to or greater than the rest of the body, so not very anatomical at all. Despite having almost geometric silhouettes, their facial features are very tender and manage to convey a great sweetness, regardless of whether it's chubby Dustin or a Demogorgon. However, you need to bear in mind that the use of these dolls is not recommended for children under 3 years. The Gang's All Here Pixar has become well-known for its exaggerated designs paired with beautiful visuals and heartfelt storytelling. Luca is no different. The character design showcases large, round heads, bean-shaped mouths, bouncy hair, and highly expressive eyes. The overall roundness of the characters gives them an almost toy-like quality that’s perfect for translating into vinyl figures. So it makes sense that Funko took advantage of that when designing their figures. The most apparent unique element of the Luca collection is, of course, the fact that two of the figures are sea monsters. Rather than being regular humans standing, they have larger feet, long tails, and fins.It’s hard to decide on the best figures in a collection when there are so few to choose from. Each has its own good qualities and depicts fun characters. Ultimately I decided on two that I preferred. I based my preferences on the pose, general appearance, and expression. My favorite part of this collection is the poses. Guilia and the human forms of Luca and Alberto are all on their feet in poses that express their personality. What really shines, though, are the poses of the sea monster forms. Rather than being on the ground, they hover on clear stands in poses that invoke the idea of floating in the water. It’s very striking and gives the figures a lot of character. While it’s clear they are from the same species, they aren’t just slightly different versions of one base character. Every element of their design has their personality and story put into it. As someone who fears breaking the rules yet wants to explore the unknown, I relate to Luca. He wants to do the right thing and struggles when he isn’t sure what the right thing is, or worse yet, what he is told is the right thing isn’t what he wants. The Pop of his human form shows his personality’s anxious yet hopeful side. Unlike his friends with broad stances, taking up as much room as they please, and wide grins, Luca holds his hands in front of him with a subtle smile. As Funko Pops have rapidly increased in popularity, their figures have gone from limited to one base body silhouette to a growing variety of poses, props, and effects. The Luca collection is an excellent example as they break the traditional Funko Pop head shape to emulate the movie’s animation style.

It was clear a lot of work went into the movie and gave Pixar and Funko confidence in its success. A month before the film’s release, they announced the Luca Funko Pop collection, which would be available soon after the movie premiere. It’s a small collection focusing on the three main characters, but I wouldn’t be surprised if more figures are in the works.Alongside the head’s shape, the faces are also altered to mirror the film. With how large the character’s mouth and teeth are in the movie, it would feel wrong to go the traditional Funko route of removing the mouth. So, instead, they all have mouths, and all but one open their mouth in a big, toothy grin. Rather than the standard square head, each character has a head shape similar to the film. Giulia and Luca both have taller, trapezoid-like heads, with Luca having rounder cheeks. Alberto has the most apparent silhouette change, with his head being more of a bottom-heavy eight shape. These unique silhouettes make the Luca figures stand out against other Funko Pops. Boo- Monsters Inc : Do you like the Luca set for their spunky, childish personalities and appearances? Boo, in her monster costume, conveys an even more innocent and adorable kid. Much like the Luca set, she is given a mouth to convey her naive friendliness, and her monster costume gives her a unique silhouette. Funko certainly has a long list of players in their lineup. Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Virgil van Dijk, Neymar, Kylian Mbappé, Sergio Agüero, Paul Pogba, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Romelu Lukaku, David de Gea, Gary Cahill, David Luiz, Eden Hazard and Andy Robertson are some of the players that are available in various retailers and more players are constantly being added to the list by the manufacturer themselves.
