Archangel was an on and off favorite character of mine in the X-Men/X-Force line up. I do like Warren; he has a good set up, his powers are pretty cool when he was Archangel, he has a smoking hott girlfriend(Psylocke), not to mention, he looked the most badass when he was in the X-Force. But this is his X-Men POP version so let's check him out.
If Funko gets the black version of Archangel, I'd get it. Other than Psylcoke and Storm and maybe Cable, the set is something I won't be completing. Though a Sabretooth isn't bad; Quicksilver is out of the question though.
While I do adore the POP line, it is easy to say that they are stagnant in terms of 'what they can/and are doing'. Sure they come out with big ones here and there. Sure they come out with cool variations and an assortment of characters(Where is my Jessica Drew Spider-Woman, FUNKO?!), sure the molds are posing away from your normal "stand like this" stance, but they are as they are.
But there are times when you get a character that forces Funko to do more. Case example: Archangel. The wings on his back X-Forces(ha!) this POP to have something POP out of him. Okay I'll stop.
He looks pretty neat though considering.
Again, POP is really growing. This month will probably feature the last few that I have left over from last year's collection.
