Sherlock Holmes. That may sound like a joke a 3-year-old would tell, but it really does make sense: <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=42958\">Dino Deadpool<\/a> was figure #39, <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/funko_md30mm_lock1.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"430\" title=\"Sherlock Deadpool (shown twice actual size)\" align=right style=\"margin:0px 0px 0px 20px\">and this one is #43. These <i>Deadpool 3<\/i> tie-in <i>Mystery Minis<\/i> don't re-release <b>all<\/b> of the \"Nerdy 30\" minis (why did you waste a spot on Barista Deadpool instead of Roman Senator Deadpool, Funko? Or Backyard Griller Deadpool? Or Nerd Deadpool, to fit with the line's name?), but at least a couple of them are cool enough to be worth tracking down.<\/p>\n<p>Sherlock Holmes' iconic \"deerstalker cap and Ulster coat\" outfit was the creation of illustrator Sidney Paget, and was only used when Holmes was out in the country - like, imagine a hardboiled noir detective wearing camo pants, a blaze orange vest, and a beanie while going about his regular business in the city, and you'll have an idea how out-of-place this look would have been on the streets of London. But Deadpool isn't interested in sartorial accuracy, he's interested in fun! And fun this is!<\/p>\n<p>The <i>Mystery Mini<\/i> has a very confident pose, leaning slightly to the right <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/funko_md30mm_lock2.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"215\" title=\"he needs a Watson who can pull that out for him\" align=left style=\"margin:0px 10px 0px 0px\">and with his left hand propped against his waist. He's holding a magnifying glass up to his face, and that's been painted with a large white dot to represent Deadpool's eye (though the one behind it, like the other eye, is a small, happy squint). His coat covers him entirely, leaving only his brown shoes and white spats exposed. Although the hat is molded onto the head, they still remembered to give him his little mask-nipple in the back. We're willing to guess that Deadpool isn't actually a very good detective, though, because if you turn him around, you'll find that an envelope has been pinned into his back with a large knife. Just jammed right into the spine. If that's the clue you're looking for, Sherlock, you're never going to see it.<\/p>\n<p>Because literally every size of Marvel toys was already licensed to other companies, Funko has to make all their stuff as bobbleheads. I couldn't say how many places these non-blind-boxed versions can be found, but I got them at Five Below.<\/p>\n<div class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Posts\"><H5>&lt;i&gt;And now, some more OAFEry:&lt;\/i&gt;<\/H5><ul class=\"entry-meta\"><li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"DC Bombshells Mystery Minis - Harley Quinn review\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2020\/03\/dc-bombshells-mystery-minis-harley-quinn-review\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">DC Bombshells Mystery Minis - Harley Quinn review<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Universal Horror Mystery Minis - Chris (Get Out) review\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2025\/10\/universal-horror-mystery-minis-chris-washington-get-out-review\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Universal Horror Mystery Minis - Chris (Get Out) review<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Rustin's Spoils of the Week #234\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2025\/01\/rustins-spoils-of-the-week-234\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Rustin's Spoils of the Week #234<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Flippin' through Previews - February '12\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2012\/02\/flippin-through-previews-february-12\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Flippin' through Previews - February '12<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Godzilla Mystery Minis - Black and White Godzilla review\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2025\/02\/godzilla-mystery-minis-black-and-white-godzilla-review\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Godzilla Mystery Minis - Black and White Godzilla review<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&lt;i&gt;And now, some more OAFEry:&lt;\/i&gt;Soon Forget: Horror Classics Mystery Minis Series 3 Rustin's Spoils of the Week #106 Marvel Universe Taskmaster addendum Universal Horror Mystery Minis - Chucky &#038; Tiffany reviews Flippin' through Previews - June '15<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,250],"tags":[123,291],"class_list":["post-42960","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog-exclusive-review","category-funko","tag-deadpool","tag-mystery-minis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42960","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42960"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42960\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":46032,"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42960\/revisions\/46032"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42960"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42960"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42960"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
