Yesterday, I took a look at Astronaut Snoopy, one of the Summer Convention Exclusives shared between San Diego Comic Con and Barnes and Noble. Today, I take a look at another one of those such collectibles. Adding some mischievousness to the Doctor Who line of Funko Pop! Vinyls, here is Pting.
Appearing in the first season of the Thirteenth Doctor (played by Jodie Whittaker), the Pting is virtually impossible to destroy, and deadly to touch. This species of creature does not eat meat, but rather in organic items, including metals and circuitry. This made it a very dangerous creature when the Doctor encountered in on a spaceship.
While there are very few Funko releases each year for Doctor Who recently, I am still happy that they are continuing the line. It is one of the few lines I am still striving to be a completionist of, as I love the series. The fact that they can still add to the line, mainly utilizing Convention Exclusives, is a great thing.
If you are looking to add this little bundle of trouble to your own collection, he should be able to still be found at some Barnes and Noble stores. I also saw him available online at their store the last time I checked.
