Not sure who he is. Space Funko

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got a spring. Come inside and chat about Funko Wacky Wobblers (bobble heads, for the less sophisticated).

Not sure who he is. Space Funko

Postby Rexus » Tue May 07, 2013 6:00 pm

So I found this guy at a local rundown bookshop. They have all kinds of cool stuff. I'm not really sure who he is, but I liked his look and he was Funko.
Can anyone help me out and let me know.

It's Space Ace! One of the earliest Funko wobblers. Not particularly valuable, but one of my favorites!

Oh cool :)
I bought him for five bucks so I don't really care. I like his little retro suit so I'm happy with him.

While we're on the subject, I saw this at a antique toy store and they wanted $50 for him. What's up with that?!

Value, schmalue.............this is original Funko at its best! No licensing fee, character CREATED by Funko....you cannot get more original than that!

No movie, no TV show, no comic book, no toy, no cartoon, no nothing to follow but sheer imagination.......my favorite Funko toys! :D

That's even better! Now I'm even happier that I got him. I almost didn't, but that little retro suit just couldn't help myself.

This is one of my favorite 'old school' pieces. Brings you right back to the early space tv shows some of us older--well, more seasoned--Funatics used to watch in the '60s.

This guy had a box variant, which for other pieces doesn't mean much to me, but for this guy, had to have both.

Great find Alexis!

Bottom right) - Travel to 2005, stick a Freddy head on it, stick in a couple of antennas, paint, box and there you have it - one of my favorite Freddy wobblers from the Funko Booth at the San Diego ComicCon. My first Con and the first thing I saw (after Greggo) at the Funko booth.

Congrats on your Space Ace!!!!!!

COOL!! Just learned something new. Thanks Craig. First time I've seen that the Alien Freddy and Space Ace share the same body. Is it sad that my day is somehow brighter for learning that little detail? :D

Yes, Scott. It IS sad. But it's also sad that I dug up this pic and took the time to post it. But it's the good type of sad..... it's what Funatics do. :D

I think Tasty has one for $15-$20.

Lemme know if you'd like me to pick it up for you.

Viva!
