DC - POP Convention N° 574 - Brainiac (Metallic)

This collectable vinyl figure depicts the terrifying android and world-collector Brainiac, released by Funko as part of its Pop! Heroes collection dedicated to the greatest characters from DC Comics. Made entirely from PVC, this exclusive piece stands out thanks to a superb ‘Metallic’ finish that brilliantly highlights the creature’s technological and cybernetic appearance. Part of the prestigious range of exclusives from the autumn conventions (such as New York Comic Con), this figurine is a must-have to enhance your collection of superheroes and supervillains. 

Brainiac (whose real name is Vril Dox) is one of Superman’s most formidable, cold and ancient enemies, first appearing in the Action Comics series in 1958. A genius scientist of extraterrestrial origin or artificial intelligence, depending on the version, this cybernetic being travels the cosmos aboard his skull-shaped spaceship to absorb the entirety of the knowledge of various civilisations. His modus operandi is as fascinating as it is terrifying: after extracting all the knowledge from a planet, he uses advanced technology to shrink and miniaturise its finest cities under a dome (such as the famous Kryptonian city of Kandor) before destroying the rest of the planet to ensure he is the sole holder of that knowledge. This exclusive metal model is inspired by its modern and relentless look, ready to amass a veritable mechanical army within your collection.
