Artist’s Drawings Turn the Characters from ‘The Thing’ into a Faux Line of Funko POP! Vinyl Toys
Funko has left very few stones un-turned in their quest to turn ANYONE and EVERYONE into a POP! vinyl toy, and they’ve given a whole lot of love to the horror genre over the years.
But there are still some classic horror films that haven’t yet gotten the POP! vinyl treatment, and one of them (at the time of writing this article) is John Carpenter’s The Thing.
The various characters and monsters from The Thing are all instantly recognizable to horror fans, which would allow Funko to whip up a pretty awesome line of toys. But in the meantime one fan has taken matters into their own hands and whipped up a line of mock-up drawings that give us a good idea of what an actual POP! line based on The Thing might look like.
These drawings come courtesy of @Funko_Maverick over on Instagram, and he’s imagined all the main players as Funko toys. Monsters, at this time, not yet included….
