Unboxing the DC Legion of Collectors Green Lantern Funko Box
Always leave them wanting more. For what may in fact be the final DC Legion of Collectors Funko box, they gave us the best one that they have done. The Green Lantern-themed box is one that fans and subscribers wanted almost from the start, and anyone who picked this one should be more than happy with its contents. There were a lot of possibilities with a Lantern box — which Corps would be represented? Which characters? Which Corps leaders? Would we get a fidget spinner?! Thankfully no on that last one. Let’s take a look at what we got.
The box, of course, is just like the others. I will say that I have always enjoyed the silhouette artwork they used for these the most of any of the boxes. I will miss that.
Once opened, you see that the only Corps really represented is the Green Lanterns. Nothing wrong with that at all; this is a Green Lantern box after all. The Lantern stress ball is okay — nothing too exciting there. I do like the shirt, even though John Stewart is not looking his best here. I wish it had been a Pop shirt.
Anyone who has ever read any of my Funko articles on here knows how much I love the Pint Size heroes. And these became two of my favorites as soon as I laid eyes on them. Sinestro looks incredible, and the Hal Jordan is adorable. They even have little rings on their hands. Even the packaging is great. I only wish we got more exclusive Pint Size in other boxes.
Which brings us to maybe the best Pop exclusive in any of their boxes. This Pop three-pack Ch’p, Guy Gardner, and Kilowog are three of the best-sculpted, best-looking Pops I have ever seen. Each one has very distinct looks — Ch’p with his tail, Guy with the lapels, and the entirety of his figure. Kilowog is one of my favorite Pops in my collection already. He was always one of my favorite Lanterns, but man, does he make a great Pop.
If this is the last DC box, then it is by far the best one just on the Pop alone. While I have not always liked every DC box, there were more hits than misses. Let us hope that the DC Legion of Collectors box is not gone forever and does in fact come to be a retailer exclusive.

Oscar-Nominated Film The Shape of Water and Guillermo del Toro Get Funko Pops!
The Shape of Water is the most-nominated film in the 2017 awards season, and the aquatic love story has hit a chord with fans the world over. The gothic beauty of a girl-meets-monster story was perfectly brought to the screen by del Toro via FOX Searchlight, and now to your shelf and desk by Funko.
That’s right — Funko has released a set of POP! vinyls featuring Guillermo, Eliza (played by Oscar nominated actress Sally Hawkins), and the Amphibian Man (played by the should-have-been-nominated Doug Jones).
Del Toro’s figure sports glasses, his facial hair (with a tiny soul patch of grey), his signature golden ring, and a book. The Eliza has the custodian with her trusty broom, and green uniform dress. The Amphibian Man is raised on one leg, as though floating in water, with an outstretched finger.
Check them out:
One of the most talented directors in the film industry – our friend
Guillermo del Toro – will now be memorialized as a Pop!,
alongside characters from his Oscar-nominated film The Shape of Water!The unique relationship between Amphibian Man
and Elisa is dramatized in one of the stand out films of 2017.
Now you can collect Amphibian Man and Elisa who is shown with a broom!
No release date has been set for these figures, but we’ll keep you updated.
Don’t forget to see how many Oscars The Shape of Water takes home when the 90th Annual Academy Awards air on Sunday March 4th.

Weird Al, M. Night, Ronda Rousey, and More: The Weekly Static s01e29
I know you wanna leave me, but I refuse to let you go. If I have to beg and plead for your sympathy, I don’t mind cause you mean that much to… The Weekly Static!
A plague of locusts upon your homes if you didn’t know that was The Temptations – and I would’ve gotten away with it, too, if it wasn’t for you meddling…
The Weekly Static is our look at the past week in the land of the networks, cable, streaming, smoke signals, cloud formations, and shadow puppets from an interesting and entertaining perspective. So The Weekly Static (myself, Rocky, Trejo, Bat-Murr and Margot Staten) makes you three promises…free of charge (minus postage & handling)!
● Offer blunt, honest perspectives on five TV topics from the past week covered by Bleeding Cool’s team of news-thirsty writers. Just to be clear? My views are my views and don’t reflect on the writers. We own what we say 110%.
● Spotlight a news item that we missed when it first hit, but we’re pretty sure you’ll want to know about.
● Feed my insatiable-yet-fragile ego with buckets of praise, adulation, social media shares, pizza, Superman Funkos, Eisner Awards, write-in votes for the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election (…damn right…) and a chicken parm hero.
But before we get to our “Top 5,” I think it’s time for a…

Jennifer Carpenter & Morris Chestnut To Star In NBC Pilot ‘The Enemy Within’
“Written and executive produced by Woodruff and directed by Mark Pellington, The Enemy Within is a character-driven investigative thriller set in the world of counterintelligence. It focuses on former CIA agent Erica Wolfe (Carpenter), the most notorious traitor in modern history and most hated woman in America, who is brought out of a federal supermax prison by the FBI to help stop some of the most dangerous acts of espionage threatening the United States today.
Carpenter’s Wolfe is a highly intelligent codebreaker who learned her craft from her father and disclosed highly sensitive information to a former Russian intelligence agent. Chestnut will play Will Keaton, an FBI counter-intelligence agent who had brought down the traitor Erica Wolfe and whose fiancee had been murdered as a result of Wolfe’s activities.”
