If you spend your days wishing you could be out "saving people" and "hunting things," then you'll love "Supernatural" Funko Pops. Funko Pop is a pop culture company famed for its bobblehead-like action figures. Their line spans almost the entire movie and TV landscape — if there is a fandom for it, then you can bet Funko Pop has you covered.
"Supernatural" is no exception, and there are many great Pops inspired by the show. A top choice is the Funko Pop "Supernatural" Castiel with Wings Action Figure.
"Supernatural" is a behemoth of a show that ran from 2005 to 2020, making it the longest-running science fiction show in the United States. The show follows brothers Dean and Sam Winchester as they traverse the country hunting all manner of supernatural creatures.
Most Funko Pop lines have basic figures of the characters from a show or movie. These appear as they do most often in the show, wearing their regular clothes and perhaps holding a prop their character is known for. In the case of "Supernatural," a common Pop of Dean Winchester has him wearing jeans and a button-down shirt.
The Funko Pops that are rare usually have some sort of special quality — an unusual prop, or being shown in a famous scene or costume. Some also have special coloring, such as being glow-in-the dark. A rare "Supernatural" Funko Pop is Sam or Dean with Baby.
While you should purchase whichever Funko Pop figure delights you the most, if you are going to collect, start by acquiring the main characters from the show. Sam and Dean Winchester appear in each of the show's 320 episodes. Once you've gotten the brothers, the uncontested number three on the show is Castiel the angel. Another main character is Sam and Dean's car, Baby.
"Supernatural" has a huge cast of memorable side characters. Some that recur most often are Bobby, the brothers' stand-in father figure, and Crowley, their wily demon nemesis. Another fan favorite is Charlie, an unsuspecting tech worker who got roped into the hunting world.
The props that come with Funko Pops are a huge part of the fun. Make sure to pay attention to the details of each figure you consider. Funko Pop figures are around 4 inches tall, so these props can be fairly small.
More common "Supernatural" Funko Pops will cost $13-$30. The price for rare Funko Pops is pretty wide — you can pay anywhere from $40-$500.
A. That's up to you. Most collectors leave their Funko Pops inside the boxes because it protects them from dust and other damage. On the other hand, taking them out of the box makes them more fun to display. A good middle ground is to purchase clear cases to both protect and clearly display your figures.
A. Many collectors display their Funko Pop figures on some type of shelf. Floating shelves or clear shelving units are both attractive options. It is also popular to place figures removed from their boxes on bookshelves.
