Fun with Funko......

My first one was Slash from Guns 'n Roses......followed by Jerry Garcia. I met a couple at one of the toy shows that they customize Pops characters by putting small lights in them powered by a watch battery (their best one was of course Uncle Fester with the light bulb in his mouth). I got playing on the web and found some interesting customs so I started doing it for my own amusement. These are a a few of them as I'm about a dozen in but some of the them are more than a tad on the dark side to post here.......

Pics 1 and 2.....Funko included good detail but it's not painted accordingly (see the skin above the gloves). Repainted to match her pink Chanel dress. This is one of them I took to the dark side.

Pic 3 thru 5.....SAMAURI!!! I'm a huge fan of John Belushi. Funko did two of his character John "Bluto" Blutarsky from Animal House (one in a toga and one with the COLLEGE sweatshirt). I took the head and put it on some warrior body.....found a sword in the hand of another Pops character. Beard is burnt cork rubbed on (intentionally left spotty). Yes he has the man bun on top.

Pic 6.....Don't recall why I had the Joker, but looking closely at it, the colors said 'pimp'. Don't recall who the head was from. The hat was from some other Pop of an older lady with a shield. The zebra print is all quick swipes with toothpick
