A Christmas Carol Pop Funko review

This is a fantastic set of figures. Scrooge is my favourite of the set by a country mile.


The ghost of Christmas present is perfect too, as is Jacob Marley, which has a fantastic texture to its glow in the dark surface. Tiny Tim was captured well with some amazing detail on the pop. 



The ghost of Chrismas yet to come had an amazing soft feel to its trailing rags. A nice feature, which would have made the figure more striking, but is sadly missing, would have been to have have included the faces if Ignorance and Want peeking through the rags.



The only real disappointing figure for me in the set was the ghost of Christmas past, which was too yellow, the candles were a too blocky and, without its box labling might not have been recognised as A Chrismas Carol Figure. This latter fault is perhaps also present in the Ghost of Christas yet to come. All in all though, it is a great set. Each figure comes with a great snowy London street stand that can interlock to present the collection nicely. And making three of the ghosts glow in the dark is also a cool feature. 


As for my photography, I think I will do better on a second attempt.
