With Vinyl Vixens, Funko Finally Makes Figures That Look…Kinda Hot
 |
Funko’s Vinyl Sugar brand, in which they’re branching out into new styles of vinyl figures, is feeling more and more like the answer to a cry for help that the dead black eye dots of their previous “type” were starting to get creepy and limiting.
They just Tweeted out the image above, but it says a lot – they’re about to actively pursue collectors who like sexy cartoons. And as long as they’re significantly cheaper than DC Bombshells statues (not hard to do), this seems like a solid plan to me.
