Well, this is pretty groovy. Funko has unveiled the first figures in its popular Pop! vinyl line based on “Ash vs. the Evil Dead” and the beloved anime “Cowboy Bebop.”

The “Ash vs. Evil Dead” line will feature the four main characters from Starz’s comedy horror series: Ash, Pablo, Kelly and Ruby. If you were worried that Ash would have a simple prosthetic, fear not — he comes with his chainsaw hand and his boomstick. His monster-hunting crew is also armed, Ruby with a bloody knife, Kelly with an ax and Pablo with his weapon of choice, a tiny bottle. Considering none of the figures has a mouth, the likenesses are so strangely on point, it’s uncanny.
The “Cowboy Bebop” line will also bring the four main characters, in this case the crew of the bounty-hunting ship Bebop. Spike Spiegel leads the way in his classic blue suit, with cigarette in hand. He’s accompanied by the ship’s grizzled captain Jet, as well as Faye, wearing an outfit that could only come from an anime. Last, but certainly not least, is the ship’s diminutive hacker Ed. No word yet whether Ed’s canine pal Ein is planned for a subsequent wave, but you have to imagine if these figures do well enough, one may be further down the line.
The “Ash vs. Evil Dead” figures are targeted for release in November, followed by “Cowboy Bebop” in December.
