POP Ben (Glow in the Dark) (Umbrella Academy)

Ben Hargreeves, also known as Number 6 or Horror, is one of the siblings in the Umbrella Academy series produced by Netflix. Like his siblings, Ben was adopted by Sir Reginald Hargreeves when he was just a baby, but in addition to having a super power, Ben has another significant feature: he's dead!

Indeed, Sir Reginald Hargreeves adopted seven children, including Ben, to form a group of superheroes: the Umbrella Academy. Unfortunately, during a mission, Ben was killed. His death led to the explosion of the academy and the hasty departure of all its members except Number 1 (Luther) .

Although he died as a child, Ben remains very present in the series since his brother Klaus has the power to summon and speak with the dead. Ben even seems to have grown up at the same pace as the other members of the Hargreeves family. He is thus very often present, and can even advise Klaus to help him to get out of bad steps...

Ben's power is to contain tentacles that seem extraterrestrial. They escape from his body and become real weapons. It seems that even dead, Ben's ghost can still activate his power! With his tentacles, Ben looks like a rather terrifying creature, and his father was quite impressed by this power.

Funko pays homage to Ben with a POP figurine that reminds us that he died, in a Glow in the Dark version that gives an even more ghostly effect to the POP. We discover Ben, all blue as we find him in the last episode of the first season of The Umbrella Academy.

Except the four tentacles which leave his body, Ben is dressed as in his everyday life with a hooded sweatshirt and a leather jacket. He has a more "sportswear" and casual style than his siblings.

On the POP, you can recognize Ben's rather childish face, with his hair plated on his skull and his frowning eyebrows. He uses his fists of irritation to unleash his power and protect his family. For this version of Ben's POP, the Glow in the Dark effect on the tentacles is very successful.
