Happy Halloween everyone! I didn't have the foresight this year to do a whole month of Halloween reviews, but I was saving this awesome Lily Munster Pop for the occasion. The Munsters had the ability to bring Halloween to any time of the year and it was glorious. The family of suburban monsters were charming, funny, and delightfully idiosyncratic in a a Donna Reed world. Interesting fact I just learned: The Munsters was cancelled because it couldn't complete with Batman. Can you imagine the TV lineups back then? Add Star Trek, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Girl from U.N.C.L.E., and the Green Hornet and you'll start to realize how wonderfully geeky TV was in the sixties. I wonder if they'll be discussing our TV lineup in 50 years? I somehow doubt that very much. I was very excited to add Lily to my fledgling Funko witch collection. Currently it's heavy in Disney villains and just starting to accrue other members from pop culture. (I need Morticia. Elvira, and Vampira stat!) Let's out Lily below!
Time for a Group Shot!
Happy Halloween!
