1. The Mandalorian (Final)

Read Reviews

Pleasing faithful fans of a franchise again and again can be something of a delicate balancing act. A fact which makes any series that gets on their good side deserving of a spot in the series hall of fame.

The Mandalorian which happens to be one of Disney's latest attempts to woo acolytes and adepts of the Star Wars universe, revolving around a mysterious taciturn protagonist, happens to be one such example.

As a fan of the series, you would have gotten to watch as the bounty hunter set out on a quest which involved the usual and very essential ingredients of adventure, danger, and discovery.

And while wondering just when he'd get to take his helmet off, you'd have found he was multilayered and capable of affection and kindness, and also irrational behavior.

And in the grand finale you'd have discovered the reasons for the complexity behind the mask — and watch him let go of a certain phobia.

This figure embodies that 8-episode journey in spectacular style. There's that helmet that separated the enigma known as Din Djarin (quite capably played by Pedro Pascal of Game of Thrones' fame) from faithful viewers.

There's also that trusty rifle, that trademark weapons belt, and those endearingly dusty boots and cloak (albeit a lot more pristine on this Funko Pop doll).

And there's a nice little base displaying what is arguably the world's most loved emblem announcing just what it is to everyone else on the globe who isn't a fan.

And these features in our opinion combine wonderfully to make this doll an excellent representation of a delightful hit series.

The Mandalorian (Final)

Whether you are a DC fan who was sorely disappointed by the original release that made it to the big screen or a viewer who loved both that release and the Snyder Cut, you're likely to love the opportunity to relive Supes' appearance and his subsequent crushing of Steppenwolf with this figure.

Reminiscent of the man of steel in dark mode, it eschews the blue costume, red boots, cape, and emblem, and those yellow accents for a somber gray and black.

And each time you take a look at this most unusual representation of the world's most loved hero you'll get to remember those moments of waiting and hoping against hope along with Diana Prince, Arthur Curry and the rest of the team as they attempted to bring their fallen leader back to life. You'll also get to recall their subsequent struggles to rein him in following his return to the world of the living.

One remarkable quality about this figure is the fact that Superman seems about to take flight rather than merely standing still. That dark cloak too seems to unfurl just like it does right before take-off further enhancing the appeal of this stylized toy.

This combo of unusual colors and the detail this figure comes with works remarkably well imbuing it with the magic of the Snyder Cut making it a must-have for every fan of the DC cinematic universe.

  • Transparent stand to give the impression of flight

Justice League The Snyder Cut - Black Suit Superman

He didn't quite show up in Sneddon's release. But thankfully, the Synder Cut rectified that. After all it was only fitting since Marvel fans got to see the purple annihilator, Thanos proclaim his inevitability — until he fell on its receiving end, that is.

And when the ruler of Apokolips emerged in living color, we were all suitably awed. And with good reason too.

Even Steppenwolf fell to his knees before the being once named Uxas.

And why not? Any being which has reduced a hundred thousand worlds to dust is truly the stuff of nightmares.

And all because of an avid desire for anti-life and a touch of vengeance for deprived glory. A desire which of course happened to place our blue-green sphere in his sights.

With this figure you'll get to reimagine Darkseid making that awesome leap to earth and setting it aflame and men and heroes rushing forward to save the day.

Especially since he actually happens to be wielding that same multi-edged, begemmed weapon and wearing a menacing grin capable of convincing earthlings that he has every intention of reducing their planet to a pile of rubble.

Such artful accuracy is the very thing which we've come to love and expect from Funko Pop which makes the Darkseid Snyder Cut toy the perfect gift for yourself or any other DC fan.

Key Features
  • 3.75 inches in height
  • Black armor, helmet, and boots

Justice League The Snyder Cut - Darkseid

He's to Marvel what Supes is to DC. And even though he's been through quite a few incarnations like Krypton's most famous son, this is his latest.

And if you have watched End Game, you'd remember the world-weary hero burdened by the utter havoc wreaked by Thanos in Infinity War.

You'll also remember his valiant stand as the Avengers' HQ was reduced to rubble with the return of the purple terror, not to mention that moment when Thanos took him on shattering his seemingly indestructible shield.

And that's how he appears here, that trusty weapon of defense broken. Yet his stance shows an unbeaten hero, prepared to stand against the hordes of evil and destruction.

He's also wielding Mjolnir, Thor's legendary hammer which he got to heft during the battle for earth and for mankind, too.

Funko Pop has also provided him with those rather somber movie colors rather than the lighter blue we often see him wearing in comics.

And that lighting at his feet and by his hammer simply elevates this collector's item, of the best Funko Pop heroes and villains items, which deserves pride of place on the shelf of every viewer who loved the movie.

Key Features
  • Blue lighting around weapon and boots 
  • Thor's legendary hammer
  • Shield as broken by Thanos in movie

Funko Pop! Marvel: Avengers Endgame - Captain America with Broken Shield & Mjolnir

In End Game, the Mad Titan staged a return five years after halving the earth's population with a mere snap of those purple digits.

A truly frightening prospect all things considered. Especially in light of the fact that this immortal being with superhuman strength and near invincibility showed up with a dread legion led by his henchmen.

Or the fact that standing between mankind and that chasm of oblivion was a severely reduced team of rather demoralized Avengers whose comfy digs had just been leveled by the arrival of their purple nemesis.

Using overwhelming force against Earth's finest he seemed set to win the day until the tables turned marvelously and the heroes he banished in Infinity War showed up to reinforce the Avengers.

This was one film which fans and detractors of Marvel alike had only praise for.

Which is what makes this Funko Pop doll so perfect.

Arrayed in its golden armor complete with giant blade and toting that ill-famed glove, it's proof in 3D of the manufacturer's ability to perfectly crystallize the very essence of this movie in a collectible item.

And we're certain it's one which is likely to become a much-loved part of your collection of the best Funko Pop hereos and villains — or become a source of delight for a fellow fan.

Key Features
  • Golden armor as in film
  • 3.75 inches in height

Avengers Endgame - Thanos

He's the boss of The Client, the shadowy character who hired the Mandalorian in the first place.

Which means he's the main driving force which influenced — albeit indirectly — the series' hero in taking a rather unlikely charge with surprising powers under his wing.

At the end of the series fans discovered that this roving warlord was once a high-ranking officer in the now fragmented Galactic Empire. They also got to know of the role Moff Gideon played in dealing the Mandalorian's 'kin' a rather heavy hand — resulting in their dispersal across the Galaxy — as well as his interest in a tiny green alien and Din Djarin (which was all revealed amid an elaborate setup).

Also on full display was his rather ruthless streak and his ability to literally rise from the ashes.

This Funko Pop doll suitably embodies that air of menace which is part and parcel of the character — bobble headed cuteness notwithstanding. From those eyes to that black costume and that dark cloak with a scarlet lining, it's clear that he is certainly not one of the good guys.

Funko Pop has also done an awesome job of including that saber which is a cool spin on the franchise's most emblematic weapon, the lightsaber, a touch which makes this representation as complete as can be — and makes this figure one of the best Funko Pop heroes and villains pieces out there right now.

Moff Gideon with DarkSaber

The relationship between one of the most famous Jedi mentors and his powerful apprentice turned to the dark side is one of Star Wars' pivotal themes.

It is also one which has been explored several times over and is now taking its place in the spotlight once more.

This time however, it's through a fresh lens — those of Obi Wan Kenobi himself.

At the debut of the series in May this year, fans were introduced to their fave hiding from foes and caring for the son of his defected apprentice.

They also got to watch such a comfy confinement come to an end when his adversaries abducted the daughter of said ex-apprentice in an attempt to lure him into a trap and the plot naturally thicken as Darth Vader decided to get those dark gauntlets on his former teacher.

This adorable bobble headed figure appears in the exact incarnation of the long-suffering, stoic, and thankfully supremely capable Jedi.

Much of Obi Wan Kenobi's contemplative expression is captured here in that unsmiling bearded face, and those downturned eyebrows.

He's also dressed in his trademark Jedi gear — a light brown tunic, a darker flowing coat, a girdle, brown leggings, and boots.

There's that lightsaber too. It would have been wonderful if it was combat-ready. Especially since he's regained his ability to use the force.

And yet, it must be admitted it does make a nice addition to the figure and actually elevates it to one of the best Funko Pop heroes and villains items for avid fans of the franchise and the show.

Star Wars - OBI-Wan Kenobi

They have all the tenacity and tracking prowess for which bounty hunters are renowned.

And their sole purpose — clone or human — is tracking down skillful wielders of the force i.e. Jedis.

Other than the dread Darth Vader who is a key antagonist, they too are a source of danger to our renowned Jedi protagonist Obi Wan Kenobi in his very own series.

As a matter of fact, they appeared in the Inquisitors' underwater fortress on the moon Nur leading stormtroopers leaving the Jedi Master no choice but to flood the passage to avoid capture.

This bobble-headed representation of a purge trooper is no less menacing thanks to Funko Pop's ability to capture the unique essence of each franchise and each character, making it a necessary additon to our list of the best Funko Pop heroes and villains out there right now.

Here, cute button black eyes are replaced by a scarlet visor set in a helmet in the unique stormtrooper design but which is black instead of white. The armor is also the same black with crimson accents as is the firearm.

This figure also comes perched on the same circular platform bearing the Star Wars logo in bold lettering as is the case for several other characters from the franchise.

If you are a fan of the series or of the franchise as a whole, or simply of the world's most famous Jedi Master, you'd love this suitably menacing foe which he and other Jedis have had to face.

  • Dark helmet with red accents
  • Dark armor, firearms and boots

OBI-Wan Kenobi- Purge Trooper

Ever since his introduction to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Dr Strange has been rather busy.

He got to fight off Kaecilius and his cronies in Dr Strange. And in Infinity War fans watched as Iron Man and Spider Man swung in to rescue him from the hands of Thanos' minions.

Only for the Doctor to unfortunately vanish as a result of the Mad Titan's snap.

Following his return in End Game where Thanos was defeated, he went on to aid an unmasked Peter Parker who desperately needed the world to forget just who he was.

And in his very own sequel Dr Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, he teamed up with America Chavez to undo the machinations of the Scarlet Witch who had taken control of Darkhold.

And it is in this latest incarnation that Funko Pop has presented him here, holding a fiery golden disk, a sign he's drawing power from alternate realities.

There's that very recognizable red cape (held with a golden clasp), blue tunic, dark leather bracers and girdle, and black boots.

Funko has even managed to give the doll a serious look, thanks to those dark brows drawn slightly downwards, making this a must for any collecetion of the very best Funko Pop heroes and villains.

Such attention to detail is simply the icing on the cake and makes this one figure worthy of occupying pride of place on the mantelpiece of every viewer intrigued by Marvel's main master of the mystic arts.

Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness

We're used to seeing Wanda Maximoff on the side of good fighting the bad guys for the most part. So having to watch her wreaking havoc on innocent individuals was never going to be easy for her fans to handle.

But in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness everyone had to do just that.

Her aim this time around was to recover a part of her idyllic existence in Westview before it was destroyed by Agatha Harkness and it was multiverse-crossing teen America Chavez who needed protecting since the Scarlet Witch was very aware of just what powers she had and intended to use them for herself.

All that magicking did cause a few disruptions elsewhere and after his tribulations caused by Wanda herself, Strange had to head off to see to them.

And it is in honor of this most unusual conflict that Funko Pop has presented the Scarlet Witch in all her vermilion glory.

There's that headband and that stylish cutaway tunic for starters which will instantly alert any viewer to who she really is.

And this time even her hands are covered in crimson energy too — all the better to announce the prelude to an attack.

There's even a hint of scarlet eyeshadow complementing long lashes which somehow combine to make her resemble the fearsome adversary she is in the movie.

Completing the ensemble are black leggings and black boots too as well as those trademark tresses which stop just above her shoulder since Funko is none too fond of long hair.

The last point notwithstanding, it is an impressive stylized likeness reminiscent of one Marvel's most powerful and formidable characters.

Scarlet Witch: Multiverse of Madness

Of Antagonists and Protagonists: A Tale of Eternal Conflict

Behind every hit comic, movie, or series are well-executed conflicts and moments which have the ability to take fans on an emotional rollercoaster ride.

They include the oldest you can think of such as the beef between Superman and the formidable General Zod, Batman and Arkham's slew of villains, or Shazam and Black Adam.

They also include more recent clashes (especially on the silver screen) such as those between the Avengers vs Thanos, the Justice League vs Darkseid, or even Dr Strange vs the Scarlet Witch.

Who can forget Thanos wiping the floor with the Avengers in spite of heavy-duty backup from Wakandan forces?

Or just how disheartening it felt when he halved the earth's population by a mere snap of his fingers?

Or that moment of triumph when Captain America was nearly beaten and the vanished heroes showed up to save the day?

That is just what we're talking about.

And regardless of whether the setting is Wakanda or the utterly destroyed Avengers HQ, the nail-biting and waiting with bated breath is always the same.

And thanks to this list spanning some of the most popular movies and series to ever grace your screen, you'll be able to relive those moments of excitement, pure fright, and delirious joy again and again as you gaze on these stylized dolls once they are part of your collection.
