POP Minotaur (Public Domain)

The Minotaur is a creature from Greek mythology that has the body of a man and the head of a bull. Known to have been locked in a labyrinth by King Minos so that he could not escape.

Minotaur came to a tragic end, killed by Theseus with the help of his fiancée Ariadne, who entrusted Theseus with a spool of thread that allowed him to find his way out of the labyrinth.

This legendary creature went beyond the boundaries of Greek mythology and is increasingly present in popular culture. Representing man guided by his animal impulses, we see references to the Minotaur in games such as Magic, in films such as The World of Narnia or through characters from video games such as World of Warcraft or Dofus.

Funko pays a nice tribute to Greek mythology with this POP figure of the Minotaur. We find the creature with the body of a man and the head (and legs) of a bull. The animal side of the creature stands out perfectly, especially in the Minotaur's hair and on the well-furnished legs!

On the clothing side, the Minotaur is simply dressed in a garment around the waist and a few belts reaching up to his muscular torso. He holds a double axe in his hand. Finally, the Minotaur has a golden buckle in his nose (reminiscent of the buckles of cows and bulls) and of course his two horns pointing to the sky.
