Nebula & Mantis [Blacklight]

Released as part of the Marvel Studios Pop! Movies line, this blacklight-themed two-pack featuring Nebula and Mantis was created to celebrate the aesthetic of the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise. These figures utilize specialized reactive paint formulations designed to fluoresce under ultraviolet light, a design choice intended to capture the vibrant, psychedelic color palettes often associated with the cosmic side of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The figures were conceptualized by the design team at Funko to offer a stylized departure from the standard paint applications found in the broader Pop! collection. By shifting the visual focus toward high-contrast, neon-inflected palettes, the design sought to emphasize the unique character silhouettes of Nebula and Mantis. Upon release, the set was noted by collectors for its departure from traditional character accuracy in favor of a distinct, artistic presentation that leans into the vibrant visual language of comic book pop art.
