Funko Pop figures have taken the world by storm. What started out as a fun little company that made figures for popular characters has evolved into an empire that takes hold of just about ever✤y license imaginable and makes figures out of them. Love ไor hate them, these little figures are some of the hottest collectors’ items on the market, bringing in an insane revenue for the company. With exclusives and special editions added to the mix, there’s no telling how long Funko Pops will sell well.
The biܫg reason why people seem to love them is because they’re cut♓esy recreations of the biggest names in pop culture. Everyone from Mega Man to Rick Sanchez has received a figure that recaptures their essence while providing an adorable spin on their designs. That said, not all Funko Pops are designed so well.
As a matter of fact, there are quite a few Funko Pop figures that don’t capture their characters as well as theও fans would’ve liked. Many of these figures have gone down in infamy for how inaccurate they were to their source material, 🧔whether it be because of Funko’s design choice or because they were poorly designed. Needless to say, there are many Funko Pops that many refuse to collect simply because of how little they resemble their actual characters.
With that in mind, join us as we count down 25 Funko Pops that look nothing like their characters. Be prepared to look at﷽ some of the most-despised figures from the company.
25 Rigby
Rigby from Regular Show is a beloved character. Everything from his eccentric personality to the way he is designed captivated many fans for the show’s run. Funko decided to immortalize him with his own figure, but people were quick to point out how strange it looked. With how concise the character’s design was in the show, it was surprising to have a figure so devoid of personality. Furthermore, the trademark black eyes huꦚrt the figure’s display more than help it.
24 ꦰ S🅺onic (Original)
Funko has been able to craft decent Sonic the Hedgehog fi🎉gures for a while now, but that wasn’t always the case. When they first tried their hand at creating Sonic himself, the results were less than impressive. Sonic’s body looked all wrong, and the color was too dark to properly represent him. Furthermore, the singular eyes made him look like someone wearing a mask. A big part of Sonic’s physical appearance is that his🐼 eyes connect, so using single circles made him look weird.
23 Goofy (Ori𒉰ginal)
There are a lot of collectors that go after Disney characters in their classic costumes for obvious reasons, but the Goofy Funko Pop is one tha🐬t doesn’t need to be on a display shelf. While he does retain his classic outfit, he suffers from having his face severely altered due to the translation to a Funko Pop. The result is something that looks creepy. The pale white eyes and the droopy look just don’t fit Goofy. It’s a good thing that later versions were fixed.
22 Agent 13
Agent 13 has been in the MCU since The Winter Soldier, but it wasn’t until Civil War that she got her own Funko Pop. Unfortunately, Agent 13’s figure is underwhelming to the point where you wouldn’t even know it was her unless someone told you. What really throws the look off is the two batons she holds. 💞She never used those in the film, so why are they attached to her figure? Was it an attempt to make her cooler?
21 Donald Duck (Original) 🙈
There were m꧑any classic Disney characters who were given Funko Pops that were reminiscent of their original designs in the cartoons, but they didn’t always look good. Take Donald Duck for example. He has the classic sailor outfit, but the features are where things start to go off the rails. Not only are his hands uncharacteristically big for him, but the doofy smile and big, black eyes make him look far off from what fans of the character are used to.
20 Batman Impo𒐪psters
Batman is such a big character than Funko decided to release a line of Pop figures that were labe🏅lled Batman Impopsters. These figures were classic Batman villains that wore their own versions of the batsuit. Not only was this a cheap excuse to have different batsuits, but few of them looked that good. The proportions of some of the villains wouldn’t work for a Batman ripoff, yet they somehow managed to fit🍸 Poison Ivy, Killer Croc, and Penguin in a scaled Batman costume.
19 Mr. Inಞcredible (Original)
When comparing the first version of Mr. Incredible to his re-design for Incredibles 2, it’s clear why the former made this list. This Funko Pop figure looks more like a baby than it does the stalwart, action-loving Mr. Incredible we’re all used to. What really throws off the look is the mask. While it’s not a sin to have the white ey🔯es, it’s the fact that the🌠y’re so far apart that makes the figure fall apart. Couple that with him having the most basic pose in history, and it’s a figure that doesn’t resemble the character.
18 Crush
Crush was well-known in Finding Nemo for having a laidback attitude, and channeling modern surfer bros. When it came to turning him into a Funko Pop, there were some differences that were hard to digest. Not only are his limbs much larger in the front th♌an they have any right to be, but his face lacks the proper details we’re used to. The relaxed eyes and dopey smile just make him seem like he’s tired 🤡rather than someone ready to swim through the EAC.
17 Meg
There aren’t a lot of human-based Funko Pops that have mouths, and it’s for a good reason. It causes the figures to look strange, if not creepy. One great example is Meg from Hercules. While the exaggerated lips were part of her design in the film, they don’t translate w𝓰ell onto a figure with an oversized head. To make matters worse, it probably would’ve resembled the character better if she didn’t have the mouth at all. As it stands, she’s fa🍌r from the best.
16 Doghan Daguis ♒ ⛄
If you don’t recognize Doghan Daguis, that’s because it was an alien from Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. Because Funko grabs the license to anything that has even a chance of becoming꧒ popular, these little guys got a series of Funko Pops. As you might expect, they were weird-looking and creepy. From top to bottom, the figures don’t resemble the character. The coloring is a bit off, and they don’t have the wings either. They’re just weird figures.
