Funko’s Skeletor Vinyl Invader Robot Toy!
I heard about this at New York Toy Fair a few weeks ago, and now I see the toy is up for pre-order at Fantastic Plastic Toys with a summer release date. Awesome! This Skeletor Vinyl Invader is going to be mine; the KISS Vinyl Invader (review here) and Batman Vinyl Invader toys (standard edition review here, Funko exclusive review here) were too incredible for me to miss out on Skeletor.
I hope there’s a metallic exclusive version of this toy at SDCC!

This will own me.
The Gene Simmons figure reminded me of danguard ace and the shape of batman’s ears evoked mazinger z. I don’t see a lot of robot reference in this design. I guess his samurai shoes is a shogun reference. It’s ok since hopefully there will be lots of invaders. And the price point makes this an easy pick up too.
@Openchallenge – I overheard mention of a Michael Jackson Vinyl Invader. That will make me very happy.
@Phillip Reed I’m not sure if Funko relizes they have to include an actual spring loaded rocket punch with real glitter on the glove. You cannot make the single jumbo machinder MJ we’re ever going to see and let that slide.
I would have picked a few characters before MJ. Maybe Sark from tron.
