POP Jesse Pinkman (Breaking Bad)

Jesse Pinkman, according to his former physics teacher - now his partner in crime - was not good at science. Not for science or anything else as he was a consistently failing problem student. Nor was he a brilliant cook of methamphetamine, as the purity of his product left much to be desired. However, with the help of Walter White, his methamphetamine partner, Jesse Pinkman will become a chemistry virtuoso. At least, when it comes to making drugs!

In truth, Jesse Pinkman was not only Walter White's student when he was hanging out at school, he was also a student of meth making. Despite all their disagreements and their multiple - sometimes heated - fights, Jesse Pinkman always secretly valued his partner and mentor. By following his path, he allowed himself to be influenced to the point of becoming his double. Although very underestimated by the criminal world he frequents, Jesse Pinkman would be the only possible replacement for Walter White if the latter were to die. But Walter, because of his ego, keeps on becoming a target of the cartel and even of his employer Gustavo Fring...

A strong head, relatively stupid, Jesse Pinkman is no less loyal in friendship and will never betray his mentor even though he will find himself in the center of multiple conspiracies aimed at eliminating Walter White. At first overexcited and undisciplined, Jesse Pinkman, in the course of the dramas that surround him, will eventually let himself go. He will become a dull and dispassionate zombie, performing the same mechanical gestures to design methamphetamine, a little more desperate with each passing day.

The Funko POP figure of Jesse Pinkman depicts him in his chemist's suit, at a pivotal point in his character development. After losing a loved one - without knowing who is really responsible - he will end up pursuing his career as a criminal chemist apprentice without conviction or ambition.

You can tell by Jesse Pinkman's facial expression in this POP with half-lidded eyes, he is completely jaded with his existence at this time. As for his mentor, Funko chose to represent Jesse Pinkman with his yellow latex suit used to protect him from the chemical fumes of his confections. In this sense, this figurine will fit perfectly with the one of Walter wearing the same suit.

Jesse's POP is very faithful to the character, with his clean-shaven goatee, his jaded features and the gas mask that he has pulled up on his head since he only puts it on his face when he needs to protect himself from the toxic gases at a given stage of the methamphetamine manufacturing process.

Finally, with his arms thus spread out, Jesse Pinkman's POP resituates the grotesque and nonchalant posture of an undisciplined character who has been brought down by the events that are imposed upon him. Events for which he is finally the first responsible...
