Finally, it’s here!!!
The 4th Michael Jordan Funko Pop was announced last April 5, 2019 by Yahoo Sports and every Jordan fan was stoked!
“30 years ago, Michael Jordan made one of the most memorable plays in NBA history, a dramatic series-winning buzzer beater better known as ‘The Shot’. Today, Upper Deck and Funko are excited to make history once again with an exclusive new bronze Michael Jordan figure that is sure to be a slam dunk for Jordan fans everywhere.”

Luckily, this was also made available by one of the biggest hobby shops here in the Philippines, Hobbiestock Collectibles.
Just a quick bio of this basketball legend:
Michael Jordan was born in February 17, 1963.
He attended college in North Carolina.
Got drafted in 1984 Round 1 Pick 3.
He held the position of Guard.
And he stands 6 feet 6 inches tall.
And here are some highlights of his career grabbed from the NBA website.
This is the first Hobbiestock Exclusive and so I’m just excited to get a hold of it not because I’m a fan of MJ nor the sports but because of the sticker! 🤣 I swear I don’t have a thing for stickers before. I don’t even care about the box. I now blame my toy collector friends for influencing me. 😂😂😂
Cheers to your first!
The packaging doesn’t include any cardboard insert which is okay but the hardcore fans might have a different opinion 😏. Funko decided to choose the Bulls Jersey instead of the Wizards one maybe because he stayed with that team longer.

Normally, I would get bummed that the paint job isn’t close to perfect but with this one, the “flaws” aren’t exactly flaws and they really work. I like that they didn’t make it bronze all the way like how they make chromes. The black paint really added that extra spunk to its details. They surely made it look like the bronze statues of MJ. Also, I never liked those Pops that have this type of stand only because I don’t know how to get rid of it using Photoshop 😅. But for this one, it’s totally fine since this isn’t the true colorway of MJ and that I’m not going to use it for dioramas.
This one’s rated 3+ and was made in China.
This collectible is totally worth the penny and a definite must-have for every Michael Jordan fan.
Thank you so much Kerry Sports Manila and Shangri-La at the Fort for your wonderful facility. ‘Til my next figure review. 😉🦄
