Today, I check out a few of a small number of Rock Candy vinyl figures by Funko that were based on male pop culture characters. When it debuted, the Rock Candy line was exclusively featuring female characters. Some thought that Funko would keep it that way. However, when the Harry Potter line was announced, we saw that Harry, Ron, and others would make their Rock Candy debut. Let’s take a look at three from the 2018 wave: Harry Potter (with Prophecy Orb), Albus Dumbledore, and Lord Voldemort.
Harry Potter
This version of Harry is from the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix film. He carries his wand and the Prophecy Orb that he finds in the Department of Mysteries, part of the Ministry of Magic.
Albus Dumbledore
This version of Dumbledore is fashioned after the second actor to play the role, Michael Gambon, and he carries his wand, revealed to be the Elder Wand, one of the Deathly Hallows.
Lord Voldemort
He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named stands ready to duel, and brandishing his wand, which shares “twin cores” with Harry’s wand.
I found these Rock Candy pieces on clearance at Barnes and Noble around the holiday season. However, if you would like to add one or more of these pieces to your collection, you can order them from our friends at Entertainment Earth.
