Jimi Hendrix [Black Light Glow]

Released as part of the Funko Pop! Rocks series in 2018, this figure celebrates the iconic American guitarist Jimi Hendrix. The design captures the musician’s signature psychedelic aesthetic, specifically drawing from the black light posters and vivid, trippy visual art that defined the late 1960s counterculture movement. Funko developed this piece to honor Hendrix’s lasting influence on rock music and his status as a fashion and cultural icon of the era.

The figure features stylistic elements characteristic of the Rocks line, prioritizing recognizable silhouettes and attire, such as his military-style jacket and afro. While the sculpt follows standard Funko proportions, the application of vibrant, high-contrast colors intended to react under black light reflects the studio's attempt to replicate the concert posters and album art associated with Hendrix’s legacy. It was generally well-received by collectors for its departure from the standard color palettes typically found in the franchise.
