Boxes Not Matching

Postby FunkoJoeSuper » Tue Jan 10, 2017 1:23 pm

Hi everyone,

In light of the new South Park glam, I was thinking... what are some other boxes that don't match the Pop? Obviously, do not include variants that aren't meant to match the box.

Some that I can think of off the top of my head:

Bitten Tyreese (facial expression)
2-Pac (eyebrows)

I know there are others that I'm forgetting.

Grenade Damage Joker. Box promises a heavily singed face half but most of them barely had a minor dusting of soot.

There are probably a lot when there are slight variations. A lot of the Freddy boxes, for example, don't exactly match the Pop.

I know one of the Harley boxes is this way but for the life of me, can't remember which one. I just know when I got it I thought, gosh I like the glam on the box much more.

The recently announced Gwenpool pop has a slightly different cowl shape on the box.

Just remembered another one... Stannis Baratheon. His eyes are different on the box.

I guess the actual POP design undergoes more modifications even after the box has been finalized.

Yes! That's one I was initially thinking of when I made this thread. I wonder if the original intention was to have both the regular and chase with those same swirly eyes and simply have the chase be GITD like the other GITD chases.

Ross Gellar (completely different hair mold)
Box version is definitely better/more accurate!

Some of my Pops have darker skin tones than the box shows: Hatsune Miku, Knivies Chau, & Ramona Flowers.
