| 5-inch Gold Box |
Funko produced two related lines of figures that look a bit more normal, compared to real humans, than those included in the regular Pop Vinyl line. They call these Vinyl Gold. Why? Because the box is gold...? If that's not the reason, then I dunno.
They come in 5-inch (tall) and 12-inch (taller) varieties, but you won't find the same players in each size. As of this writing, there are 21 of the 5-inch players and just 10 of the 12-inch players. There is a "chase" variant for each, but they don't seem to be very hard to chase down.
There is also a limited edition - 1500 copies - of the 12-inch Russell Wilson figure. It's also worth noting that the 12-inch Tom Brady was available via Walmart.
You can move the arms at the shoulder, head at the neck, and torso/legs at the waist. This can lead to some unusual poses that no NFL player (or any human, for that matter) would ever find himself in.
Funko started producing these in 2021, creating the 5-inch Murray, Lamar Jackson, Mahomes, and Brady (one for the Patriots and one for the Buccaneers), and the 12-inch Mahomes and Wilson figures that year. The rest (so far) were created in 2022.
I have created separate pages for the 5-inch and the 12-inch figures. You can access them using the links just below. (Creating dropdown menus at Blogger requires coding that I could do but choose not to.)
