POP Hei Hei (Moana)

Hei Hei is the colorful little rooster from the cartoon Moana. This cartoon is based on a Polynesian legend that tells the creation of the islands of the archipelago by the goddess Te Fiti thanks to the power of her heart. One day, Maui, demigod of the wind and the sea who covets this heart to offer it to men, leaves to find the goddess Te Fiti who took the shape of an island after the creation of the archipelago. But by stealing this heart, Maui causes misfortune and the destruction of life in the surrounding area. Little by little, the curse spreads to the surrounding islands and a thousand years later, arrives on the island of Motuini on which Moana, the heroine of the cartoon lives: the fish die and the coconuts rot in the trees. It is then that Moana, daughter of chief Tui, leaves in search of Maui to find Te Fiti to restore her heart to restore balance in the archipelago.

When she sets sail on her pirogue, she finds Hei Hei, the rather silly rooster who has embarked without her knowledge. Hei Hei is a pet rooster who will bring the funniest scenes of the cartoon because of this nonsense. For example, when Moana realizes that Hei Hei is hiding in the pantry with a coconut on his head, she releases him from the coconut and he starts screaming very loudly. Then he falls into the ocean and Moana is forced to go and get him. To protect him, she puts him back in the pantry and he goes back and forth in the small square.

Arrived on the island where Maui is, this one uses his beak to sign an autograph for Moana and later, he will try to feed him some seeds so that he takes a little more weight before eating it. Once again Hei Hei shows his stupidity since he pecks next to the seeds, which amazes Maui...

For this Pop! figurine, Funko represents the rooster Hei Hei, a funny and endearing character from the cartoon Moana. Like in the movie, he is very colorful with turquoise and yellow feathers on his body. His tail is covered with green feathers and his head is red with big black eyes with purple outline. Funko has reproduced the details of his legs and feathers that make the figurine very realistic. Finally, his eyes and his small beak accentuate the surprised and a little simple side of the character throughout the film.
