I’ll be sharing my theory on why the Child’s Play 2 Funko Pop shows Chucky with scars.

There’s actually 3 versions of this particular Funko Pop that I found.

Only one of the versions has this inaccurate look to the killer doll (Funko Pop #56) but we’re gonna look into why that could be the case.

Here it is.

Why does the Child’s Play 2 Funko Pop show Chucky with scars

My theory as to why this is the case is because it’s an artistic spin on the horror icon. They’re known for making a few products that are less accurate from the art they’re trying to imitate. Since anybody can make a Funko Pop it’s really easy to end up with a pop that’s less accurate than the character you’re looking to own.

Why does Chucky bleed?

Chucky bleeds because he spent too long in his doll body to the point of him actually becoming human.

The process of aging speeds up rather quickly and it was proven in the first Child’s Play film.

When detective Norris shot him he noticed that it actually hurt him.

It was from there he caught back up with his witch doctor John.

Before killing him Chucky learns that his doll body turns into one that’s anatomically correct.

Unless he transfers his soul again into the first person he revealed his secret to.

Artistic spin

It’s safe enough to compare this item to a reboot (same as you would a movie) since Funko is a company separate from the creators of Child’s Play.

With that starting point it’s the same problem that movies face where most reboots end up looking worse every time they’re done.

In this case the company pays for the licensing rights to the Chucky character to make this item and it’s just inaccurate.

And according to an article written by the Northern Iowan reboot culture is bad for the entertainment industry.

I kind of agree with that claim because too many of them can take away from the sparkle of the original pieces.

In this case Funko recreated a Child’s Play character and had a visually inaccurate representation of him.

If you’re a real fan then you’ll realize that Chucky didn’t get his stitches until Bride of Chucky.

But when you pay for the license you technically have the right to do what you want with the character.

It’s almost close to getting a sample clearance for a song that ends up turning out bad (or good depending on how it’s done).

Funk Pop FAQs

Can I make a Funko that looks like me?

Yeah, you can actually make your own fully customizable Funko Pop online.

So yes, that means you can even make a pop that looks exactly like yourself.

The feature that I like most about this is after you design a personal Funko, you can also add accessories and such that resemble licensed characters as well.

For example, you can make yourself with a Black Panther suit.

Actually, as I reflect it actually would be a bad one because the suit’s fully covered but the exact pop I saw was with a captain America suit.

That’s what I mean by doing a custom pop!

There’s really levels to making a Funko Pop your own with how they’re designed.
