Avril Lavigne's Funko POP from the Sk8er Boi video
In 2024, the world will take a nostalgic look back with the first glimpse of the Avril Lavigne Sk8er Boi Funko Pop figure. Funko has taken all the details from the singer's style of dress in the clip: tie, green t-shirt and wide pants, Vans shoes and backwards cap! The POP perfectly evokes the unforgettable atmosphere of the early 2000s.
Remember the days when Avril Lavigne ruled the airwaves with her catchy punk-rock anthem?
"He was a boy
She was a girl
Can I make it any more obvious?
This new Funko Pop is like a little time machine, taking us back to the days of voluminous bracelets and pronounced eyeliner!
It's a playful tribute to Lavigne's distinct style, which many of us tried to replicate in our teens, with varying degrees of success.
Attention to detail is what sets this Funko Pop figure apart. It's clear that the designers have done their homework. It looks like they've plucked Avril straight from her "Sk8er Boi" music video and miniaturized her as a collectible figurine. A fine creation for fans who will be eager to add the star to their shelves.
This figurine may also bring a smile to the faces of those who remember their own skateboarding phase, or the hours spent listening to Lavigne's album over and over again. And yes, many have been there...
Avril Lavigne's "Sk8er Boi" is still a cultural icon even twenty years after its release. The song captures the complex dynamics of high school life, where social groups and hidden desires create an intricate web of teenage drama. This anthem of youthful rebellion and unrequited love transcended its time, capturing the essence of teenage angst in a way that continues to appeal to audiences even today...
One surprise can hide another!
Yes, it's not one Avril Lavigne Funko POP we're discovering, but two, as Funko has announced a tribute POP Albums to the 2000s star.
It's in a darker, gothic style that we find Avril Lavigne posing with arms folded in front of the cover of the "Let Go" album, released in 2002 and propelling the career of the Canadian punk-rock singer when she was barely 17...
The young woman has a dark look and a stern attitude on her very first album. From the city backdrop, reminiscent of Lavigne's skateboarding days, to the faithfully rendered Vans shoes, this Pop figure is a visual throwback to the early 2000s.
20 years on, looking at "Let Go" in the rear-view mirror, it's clear that the album was not just a product of its time, but a pivotal moment in pop and rock music. In this sense, it's a fine tribute to the singer, her musical style and an entire era that Funko has produced this superb POP! Albums.
Like all POP! Albums, we find the cover as a background and a base serving as a pedestal for the POP figurine. The box itself reflects all the graphic codes of the singer's universe, with its logo reminiscent of the anarchist star.
