#50: Pop! Games (Overwatch) - D.Va with MEKA
Not surprisingly, Funko was one of the first companies to get Overwatch toys to market, as part of the soon to be all encompassing Pop! line. I had to wait for the second series to get my favorite character, D.Va, and she turned out pretty cool. While Funko could have just released her as a standard sized Pop! figure, they opted to include MEKA, so she's one of the mini Pops and MEKA is one of the oversized figures. The canopy on MEKA flips open, so D.Va can sit inside to pilot it. Apparently the Overwatch Pops have been plagued with quality control issues, and mine was no exception. Upon opening the package, MEKA's left arm fell off. Rather than dealing with the hassle of getting a replacement, I just super glued it back into place, and that seems to have worked. You can see in the picture that the two arms aren't exactly even with each other, but that doesn't bother me.

#67: Pop! Games Bioshock Infinite - Songbird
I've got a few figures from the Bioshock universe, but NECA is done making them. So a Pop! version of Songbird from Bioshock Infinite is probably the only way I'll ever get a toy of him. Unlike standard Pops, Songbird's head doesn't move, which is fair enough given the generally odd shape of him. Other than having an oversized head, his appearance isn't quite so stylized. Since he's mostly brown leather with bronze accents, this is officially the most steampunk think that I own. He feels nicely weighty, and his large feet keep him standing easily.

#57: Pop! Games Fallout - Vault Boy
After several years' wait, the new Fallout game is here. I haven't actually bought the game yet (hey, Battlefront came out the week after), but since there are figures being made, that means I was able to get Vault Boy. Since the main character of the Fallout games has a customizable appearance, Vault Boy is basically the face of the series. The back of Vault Boy's jumpsuit has 101 on it, indicating that he's from the same Vault the player starts out in Fallout 3.
