*Yu-Gi-Oh! - Pharaoh Atem on Throne Metallic Deluxe Pop! Vinyl Figure #1059
Launching in 1996, Yu-Gi-Oh is a Japanese manga series that took the world by storm, going on to spawn a range of tv shows, video games, card games and now, Pop! Vinyls.
Yu-Gi-Oh! tells the tale of Yugi Mutou, a timid young boy who loves all sorts of games, but is often bullied around. One day, he solves an ancient puzzle known as the Millennium Puzzle, causing his body to play host to a mysterious spirit with the personality of a gambler.
From that moment onwards, whenever Yugi or one of his friends is threatened by those with darkness in their hearts, this other Yugi shows himself and challenges them to dangerous Shadow Games, which reveal the true nature of someone's heart, the losers of these contests often being subjected to a dark punishment called a Penalty Game. Whether it be cards, dice, or role-playing board games, he will take on challenges from anyone, anywhere.
Here we have Pharaoh Atem, an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who had sealed his own spirit/soul within the mystical Millennium Pendant. His spirit then took on the identity of Yami Yugi, which resided in the body of Yugi Muto, after Yugi solved the Millennium Puzzle. This Deluxe Pop! features him sitting upon his throne.
An absolute MUST for any true Yu-Gi-Oh fan!
