Toy OTD: Funko Wacky Wobbler: Velma

Funko just keeps delivering plenty of kidvid love - this time in the form of everyone's favorite bespectacled teen detective, Velma! As usual, the sculpt is nice, and the paint apps, while varying to a degree, are also good.

Rather than give the character a grotesquely oversized head, the designer wisely chose to bobble Velma at the waist, like a hula nodder. It's a nice touch that best preserves the integrity of the source design. There's the usual awkward and unecessary labeling of the base, but all things considered, it's a minor quibble.

You can get a Velma Wobbler for $8.49 + shipping at givemetoys.com.

Cool! That's a great that Velma bobbles at the waist. Although I think there are some great 'bobbles' I was never really a big fan because of the proportions.

I'm not a big fan of the old school big-headed ones (though I do own a couple of those), but I think a lot of the Funko ones are pretty cool!
