Funko Pop Sonic keychain Tags: Keychain Funko

Here is Funko's POP Sonic keychain.
Annnd...it's not particularly cute. Sometimes the little Funko Pops are cute, like little funny Marvel characters or other video games where the people/whatevers aren't styleized . The problem with Sonic/and friends however, is that they are already very stylized and abstract to a degree, so doing that 'but more so' results in something super odd that you see here.
Sonic, fairly unique among cartoons has a single eye--which does not lend itself well to their 'blank soul-less dots on an expressionless face' gimmick. The single eye is a technicality but there's nothing doing for changing it.
The small body and actual spikes layout here is actually decent though. He's got a ring in one hand and finger-waving for his other hand which adds a little bit of dynamic/something new. You can see how nicely the head is structured around the spikes also. (Just too bad about the pop face)
The keychain itself looks to be a little large for actual utility. The ring is probably a standard size, meaning his head is a real whopper, and with spikes, it would make carrying it bulky/difficult.
