I made a disturbing discovery lately. None of the younger generation of my family know who Elvira is. Nine Nieces and Nephews ranging from 5 to 19 have had no exposure. After appropriately shaming my siblings for this educational neglect, I immediately set to correcting the problem. And I think I successfully created a small legion of fans. Elvira was an absolute staple of my childhood. She made me realize the campy nature of spooky movies at an age when I would have run away in fear. As I became an adult toy collector, I have always had a portion of my collection dedicated to vampy women. This can span from Disney witches to Vampirella and everyone in-between. Needless to say, Elvira has always has a place of prominence among the group, and I'm always super excited to add a new representation of her. This Toony Terrors figure is amazing. I think she will quickly be overshadowed by the upcoming Neca figure, but she really looks great and deserves a purchase. Let's check out Elvira below!
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here are my Elviras all together. From Left to Right: Funko Pop, Amok Time, Tiny Terrors, Funko Rock Candy, and Funko Pint Size Hero. I forgot my Mystery Mini.
And here she is with the only other Tiny Terrors figure I own, the Grady Twins.
Happy Halloween!
Awesome Elvira collection.
ReplyDeleteLove this figure and I've always been a big fan as well. I also grew up during that era and loved. Great review and I really enjoy seeing the excellent photos.
