Popinabox have released their new Funko Pop style figures of Crockett and Tubbs! Different to the "Target" ones. In my opinion I like these better and might actually get them myself.

I think these ones are actual Funko Pop, whereas the Target "Vynl" ones were sort of a copy brand and they have their own style. You can tell by the different styles between them. Normal Funko Pop's have the black button eyes.

That's how official Funko Pop is, button eyes.

Met a couple of folks from Funko while at an event this weekend. I asked them about the figurines. After a couple of minutes I asked about Tubbs holding what appears to be a 90's cell phone.

They appeared to be puzzled as I wondered out loud if Tubbs ever used a hand held cell phone as depicted in his hand on the figure, on the show. I said it appears to be a MicroTac type which came out in the mid/late 1989, and that there were easily 2-3K at the time. They sort of seemed puzzled. I told them that I didn't know for sure, but did say that there is a good possibility you put a prop on Tubbs that he never used.

I just really dislike Funko stuff in general. All their figs look like soulless interpretations. Maybe it's the style? I dunno. I mean I'm glad the characters are still being appreciated. It's just not my thing. Same with the Vnyl one's. There's just something off about them. They look more like characters badly cosplaying the characters from the show.
