POP Moana & Pua On Boat (Moana)

Moana or Vaiana in French is the heroine of the Disney cartoon inspired by a Polynesian legend. Moana is the daughter of the Tui tribe chief and her destiny is to become a chief when she grows up.

At the beginning of the film, we are told about the creation of the world by the goddess Te Fiti who then takes the form of an island. Since a demigod, Maui, stole the jade stone that symbolizes her heart, the island has become cursed. While she is just a baby, Moana finds a shell that brings her to a green stone that shines: it is the heart of Te Fiti!

The ocean withdraws as if by magic, she moves forward and discovers the landscape and the underwater life through the water. Her father Tui looks for her and the ocean brings Moana back to the beach with the jade stone that she drops in the water. A few years later, when she became a teenager, the island is in danger: there is no more food for the tribe. Encouraged by her grandmother Tala, she decides to take a boat and go in search of the demigod Maui to ask for his help and restore Te Fiti's heart. Once at sea, she discovers that she is not alone in this adventure. Pua, the pink pig, and Hei Hei, the rooster, are also on board the boat.

On this Moana figurine, we find her on the boat she takes to go in search of Te Fiti. It's a rather simple wooden boat with two bases to make it stable. Then there is a platform made of wooden planks with a sort of pantry to store her provisions.

There is also a beige sail with the symbol of his tribe. Moana is represented standing on the boat steering the sail, she is holding the rope that gives the direction of the boat.

On the physical side, she has her long hair at the back of her face with a hair in the wind effect. She wears around her neck the shell-shaped necklace that contains the jade stone that her grandmother gave her before she died. To my left, she holds the paddle with determination. She is wearing a beige skirt with Polynesian patterns with a matching orange top.

Her little pink Pua piglet is sitting in the front. You can recognize her pink muzzle, her big ears and her brown spots on her face. Hei Hei, the slightly silly rooster that ended up on the boat by chance is represented in the pantry in the middle of the food. He can be recognized by his large black eyes, his bright red crest and his barbels. You can also recognize his small yellow beak on this figurine where Funko Pop has added a purple outline around the eyes, this accentuates the silly side of the rooster.
