Out of the Box: The X-Files Alien (Funko Pop)

One of these days I'll be getting back to articulated figures and dolls, but before I do, I have yet another Funko figure to talk about.  This time it's the X-files alien.

I've mentioned a few times that I'm a huge X-files fan, and with the new miniseries and season 11 of the comics in the pipeline, it just seemed like the perfect time to pick up a new collectible.  Unfortunately more the main characters in the franchise just aren't physically unique enough to make for interesting Pop! figures, so this is the only one I'll be picking up, but it's still a cool addition to my X-files shelf.

The Pop! figures are all quite similar, so this one isn't distinct enough for a full review, so it's all photos from here:

    1. I'm eagerly waiting for it too! :)

      And thanks. He's one of the simplest Pop figures I've seen (aside from the eyes, he's unpainted), but I think it works for him.

  2. You're a cute alien, but what a big head you have! Do you think it means you have more brain power?

    JS You never cease to amaze me. Have a great weekend!

    1. Heh, I'm sure he thinks it gives him more brain power than all the puny humans! ;)

  3. I like how his half-lidded eyes, bent knees, and hand position looks like he's chill-dancing across the floor. Mellow XFA. Boogy down, baby.

    1. LOL. Now that I've seen it, I don't think I'll be able to unsee it - he'll be the dancing alien forever now! ;)

  4. Aliens always seem to have big heads, so this totally fits and looks natural on him.
