Funko has released images of a series of upcoming Science Fiction Mystery Minis. The blind boxed series looks to collect some of the most iconic characters from sci-fi movies throughout history. Included are:
- Metaluna Mutant
- Robocop
- Spock
- Classic Predator – Standard, Bloody and Translucent
- ET
- The Rocketeer
- Alien Xenomorph – Standard and Metallic
- Captain Malcolm Reynolds
- Judge Dredd
- Robby The Robot
- Tron – Standard and Glow-In-The-Dark
- Jayne Cobb
- Mars Attacks Martian
The Rocketeer and the Martian are the hardest figures to get, coming in at 1/72 chance, while Jayne Cobb is next in line at 1/36 chance. Ah, the joy and frustration of blind boxed items. Look for the figures to hit in September. See the images, including a full rarity breakdown, after the jump.
Funko Reveals Science Fiction Mystery Minis



The article says that's "Robot B9," which is the robot from Lost in Space. But the robot pictured is actually Robby the Robot from Forbidden Planet (and other things).
A METALUNA MUTANT!!!! I don't know why but I have a soft spot for that guy. Maybe because he is the bastard child of the Universal Monsters. Or maybe it is because of MST3K :-)
These are neat, the only one I don't understand is the metallic Alien. In the movie the Alien was slick and slimy not really metallic, but that's not my main problem, my main problem is that the metallic version is easier to find than the regular. That just kinda bothers me.
I'd say make mine a Robby the Robot, but after I saw the Spock with that ceremonial weapon he used to fight Kirk in that crazy Vulcan mating ritual episode....well, it was a wrap! Love/hormone crazed Spock for the win! (I can actually hear the nutso Star Trek battle-theme in my head right now!)
I'll grab the Tron on second hand. As one of the easiest ones to get, I'm sure people are going to be dumping them online. Not enough Tron stuff out there, so I'm happy to grab this.
The Robocop and Predators are must grabs for me, as is the Dredd. For the price point though, I'll more than likely be scouring ebay for them like I did for the horror series. Five or six dollars for a blind bag is really just too much these days.
Mal, Jayne, and the Rocketeer. Even though I like some of the other characters, I don't like the figures quite as much. But I need me that Rocketeer.
For people looking at the rare ones, like The Rocketeer, it might be easiest to buy a case, open them all and then sell what you don't want. People are going to be hunting those 1/72 ones.
