Oscar-Nominated Film The Shape of Water and Guillermo del Toro Get Funko Pops!
The Shape of Water is the most-nominated film in the 2017 awards season, and the aquatic love story has hit a chord with fans the world over. The gothic beauty of a girl-meets-monster story was perfectly brought to the screen by del Toro via FOX Searchlight, and now to your shelf and desk by Funko.
That's right — Funko has released a set of POP! vinyls featuring Guillermo, Eliza (played by Oscar nominated actress Sally Hawkins), and the Amphibian Man (played by the should-have-been-nominated Doug Jones).
Del Toro's figure sports glasses, his facial hair (with a tiny soul patch of grey), his signature golden ring, and a book. The Eliza has the custodian with her trusty broom, and green uniform dress. The Amphibian Man is raised on one leg, as though floating in water, with an outstretched finger.
