Napoleon Dynamite: Vinyl Idolz

I don't really remember when was the first time I saw Napoleon Dynamite, but I'm sure it took me years after it released for me to finally watched it. And when I first watched it I was like "Whaaa....?" and then I tried to watch again to have a better understanding about everything. But hey, I finally found out that this movie was pretty much needed no better understanding. The movie was simply  told us about the life of the quirky and socially-awkward 16 years old student named Napoleon and people around him. Not so much drama happened in the movie. I think that this movie is supposed to be a light, comedic and easy-to-digest type of movie.

One thing that this movie gave us was the character, Napoleon. Despite of the simple story, the character really stood out. Well, actually all the characters here were really stood out. From the way they look, their characteristic in the movie, the costumes they wore, all gave us a really memorable characters. Maybe this is the reason why the movie was a big success.

Since everyone got hooked by the movie, especially the characters, a lot of toy maker and designer out there made some toys or designs based on these. And when I found out that Funko were producing ones too, I don't wanna miss that out - Funko and designer named Kibooki were joining forces to make some of our fave characters in the movie "alive" in the toy line called Vinyl Idolz. So here I am, getting myself a pair of Napoleon Dynamite's characters in Vinyl Idolz, Napoleon and Pedro.
