Okay, so I was browsing r/HawkinsAV and noticed something Funny.
Here, in his Good Boy Pose, is Henry (001):
As opposed to Bad Guy Pose...001?
So you mean to tell me...it's different? They're different?
Why is the "Good Boy" pose listed as both Henry and 001, but the "Bad Guy" pose is solely listed as 001? And if they're clearly more than willing to go the Henry/001 naming route...why not do it right off the bat?
You could say "oh when he was in the Bad Guy Pose El only knew him as One so that's what they put on the box", but in the Good Boy Pose...she only knew him as "Friendly Orderly", as far as we know. Why tack on a name she doesn't know until after NINA is over?
Why change the name at all?
And, if they're planning on consolidating Henry = One = Vecna, then why not link him to the new Vecna pop?
Why not go the route the show went: Henry/Vecna/001? Why just Vecna? It very much makes me think of my "Vecna could be a corpse puppet" theory.
Anyway...much to think about. I admittedly know very little about the inner workings of Funko.
#also i'm being So normal about El and Henry being 1457 and 1458 respectively...a pair...do not separate...anyway!!#henry creel funko pop#funko pop fuckery#stranger things

i will not be accepting any other versions of the scene in the future, i keep rewatching the spanish dub and this is the most beautiful way it could have happened, it's sweet and soft and perfect and the fact that it looks like a damn telenovela puts a fist through the toxic masculinity people in and out of universe wanted to inflict on these characters all along and my heart is so full right now ❤️❤️
#destiel#i am so incandescently happy#cas got to hear he was loved and dean got to speak his truth#and as far as i'm concerned 15x19 and 15x20 were network fuckery so i can rightfully ignore them#and imagine the funko pop ending is real cause it's what the writers wanted to do all along#txt

Long post ahead, sorry, but I can’t be the only one who remembers this stuff, right?? i.e. the funko scenes from Atomic Monsters (15x04, Davy Perez wrote, Jensen directed)??
The first one came to pass on screen in the finale, when Sam and Dean discuss the mime-vampire case under the big tree.
The second came to fruition only partially. Upon Dean’s arrival at the Heaven Roadhouse, Bobby tells him only that “Cas helped”. However, the funko pops in 15x04 imply that Cas was supposed to be there. Not Bobby. So what happened?
Some seriously fucked up and suspicious shit is what happened. Take a look:
The water tower on Becky’s desk, also in 15x04, was a hint about a filming location for the finale, that we know they made it to and filmed at because of the SPN tapeball Instagram account. On August 29 2020, the tapeball account posted a picture of the real water tower and the tapeball with the caption “About to drown....in tears”.
Now this... this location, and the scenes shot there, never made it to air. We also know that there are 11 shots missing from episode 20 (if someone could dig out the chart plotting out what scenes fit where, I’d love to insert that here)
So here’s the thing about the SPN tapeball! It’s consistently colour-coded. Jensen is blue, Jared is red, and Misha is green. On the outside of the tapeball (therefore, the scenes most recently shot) we see red, blue, and a metric-ton of green on the left.
So where was Misha?? What happened to Cas?
Fuckery, my friends. He was there. (There’s a screenshot someone took of the view from his window when he was quarantined in Vancouver, don’t ask me how the fandom figured that one out bc it’s complicated but just go with it, Michael Sheen confirmed it during the SuperGood video thing, etc. there’s more but I don’t have time for that rn. Feel free to add on to the post if you have the receipts/pictures)
If I had to guess, even though I hate to do that, I’d say Misha shot his scenes, which were presumably set in Heaven, but they were cut, and he only found out as the show aired. Unfortunately, this sort of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry. What really stings is that he sat his kids down to watch the finale with him after never letting them watch the show before, only to see the absolutely frankensteined/chopped up/weak/VValker promoting nightmare of an ending that aired. Talk about a slap in the face (or being stabbed in the back...)
And so it goes- no closure. No resolution. And then the fandom divided itself (cult accusations, toxic discourse, etc. ensued from people I shall not name directed at people I shall not name). And now, non-polol and non-polol-adjacent people are starting to loudly question Why The Hell this was able to slide under the majority of the fandom’s noses in the first place after shaming the people who’ve tried to address it from the beginning, but I don’t really care about how we got here. (Full disclosure, I’m only polol-adjacent. Not in the server but I follow many of the people who are, and when I tell you that they’ve publically been addressing this stuff for ages now I mean it. They never really hid anything if you knew where to look, but some people hate inside jokes between friends, apparently. Not my business) All this crap happened for one reason: because network PR is a machine. It’s intentional, it’s calculated, and it doesn’t give a flying fuck about feelings, representation, or ethics. It’s a gaslighting, money-making game that’s up for anything; queerbaiting is only the tip of the iceberg of rampant industry-wide sexism, racism, homophobia, and ableism. But it FREQUENTLY fucks up. And they did with regards to SPN, many, many times. Like the C/W Philly account. Oopsies!
Now that we’re all finally on the same page, let’s not let this go. I know other people have had these ideas before me, but I needed to get all this written out in one place.
It’s not a conspiracy. It never was. It happened right in front of our eyes. And this is nowhere NEAR all of it.

This is a few days late but I saw your post in the Funko tag and totally agree. One of the best examples I can think of when it comes to their failure to make more characters of color is the Parks and Rec POPs. They advertised for them with the line “treat yo self” … but didn't make a POP for Donna Meagle, the black woman who said it on the show. Like, really?
Absolutely! I love Donna and I’m still upset she didn’t get a funko. Would have much rather had Donna than Leslie, to be honest. And to add insult to injury, no Donna (or Tom or Ann), but TWO different Andy funkos. Really?
P.S. Their April funko was terrible. The only non-white funko and her makeup looks like a fucking raccoon. Of course.

But Arya isn’t your typical maiden. I wasn’t surprised tbh she was never gonna get married and I think she knew eventually that’s something Gendry would want? Idk. She was trained by the faceless people she ain’t ever gonna be the same.
I hate this argument. Women don’t have to be typical and want marriage. Women can be all and none and bits and pieces. And while the show tried to depict her as a heartless killer, her heart was still very much involved. That was the point in her killing Meryn Trant. That wasn’t a faceless man. That was Arya. The Freys weren’t a faceless man kill. They were vengeance for Arya’s family.
Also, in the books, it’s clear that the no featherbed is about Arya and Gendry.
But I’m not even talking about marriage. I’m talking about Arya casting aside the boy she told she would be his family. And his response was she would be mi’lady. He saw the difference in their classes even if she didn’t. That’s why when he was named a lord it meant something to him! Because he felt he might have been on equal footing with her classwise and any issues OTHERS might have with them being together could be gone. It was never Arya he needed the title for. It’s the perception of others. Because let’s face it, if he had rocked up at the twins with Arya to deliver her at Robb’s wedding, he’d been sent to the smithy and the friendship they had would have been cut off. Gendry realized that. She did not. Because she saw him as family.
“You’re not like other girls” is so much bullshit that if I could keep people from being able to string those words together to form a sentence I fucking would. Because they aren’t a compliment or even a good way to describe someone. I’m a girl. I like high fantasy, regency romance, and stupid frat boy movies like animal house. I collect funko pops, tinkerbell stuff and have an entire book case dedicated to nothing but the Nightmare Before Christmas. I hate getting dirty, but my house remains a clusterfuck of fuckery. “You’re not like other girls” would piss me the fuck off because I’m already an anxious ball of anxiety that I’m fucking different. Don’t remind me. So when people say she isn’t the typical maid, no shit. Neither is Brienne. But that doesn’t mean I don’t think Brienne wouldn’t love to be with Jaime. That doesn’t mean that she can’t also be soft because we know she has a good heart. Because she can be kind as well as a ruthless killer, she shows a woman can be both things.
And it’s unfair to put men into the same categories. Because a man likes baby videos on tik tok he gets blasted as not being manly. Or because he has a macho job like lumberjack he can’t enjoy poetry. Stop this insanity of trying to lump people into categories because it suits some weird boxes you have in your head. Arya can be a warrior and still like to be dicked down by the black smith who was promoted to Lord. I think it’s insulting that all of you want her to be alone forever to let you sleep at night. Imma hold her away from all of you cause you don’t deserve her.

Not them being super specific about posing the hand too:
Which means I was RIGHT about it here:
Which means there IS something fucked up about that funko not having any blood on it!!

now pause the movie bc what I’m about to say to yall is so damn twisted.
not only is there a totally different funko character wearing the massacre blood as a costume…but that funko is DIGITAL with a very very low chance of being “pulled” as a redeemable physical funko.
#duffers what if i killed you with my mind#like oh okay so the thing in the henry/001 suit was meant to stay digital. hence why the transformation vecna has the massacre blood#but no other version of henry or 001 does. I’m connecting the dots.#funko fuckery#henry creel funko pop

Long Summary Post About The Funko-Fuckery Surrounding Henry/001
So, because I'm a little freak who's weird about funko pops now (evidently)...does anyone else see what's wrong with this picture?
How about now?
I love spot the difference games.
Belt, no visible keycard, and his shirt fully closed (undershirt not visible)...as opposed to no belt (unless it's visible from the back), visible keycard, and his shirt is undone (undershirt is visible).
We do have this Henward with a visible keycard, but he's still got a belt, his hands are wrong, and his shirt is still fully closed.
The only times we see Henward with his shirt undone are after Soteria has been removed:
Which means this funko, though oddly bloodless, is canon compliant:
However...no keycard, and like I said, post-Soteria scene. The other funko is based directly on a pre-Soteria scene pose, thus it should be buttoned up.
So this? This isn't a thing that should exist, based on canon:
They've clearly shown that they can be highly accurate in hand poses:
Meaning this new funko is definitely based off that first-iteration/keycard-not-visible/shirt-fully-buttoned Henward. Technically, the keycard should not be visible, and the shirt should be fully closed.
They've also proven they can be accurate with outfit shapes (even if certain other details are suspiciously absent):
Meaning they should be able to replicate at least the fully-buttoned collar on a pre-Soteria scene Henward.
And regarding the blood, they've proven they can properly do blood on ST Funkos, specifically for this exact sequence:
It's not a perfect replica (I don't expect it to be, it's a toy), but at least it's present.
Thus, this should not exist either:
There should be some kind of blood on him.
This all just leads me back to whatever's going on here:
No blood on him, shirt open.
This aligns with both of these outfits, even if the pose and keycard on the first one doesn't actually match the BTS pictures:
Mind you, these two funkos ^ are also named differently.
Every day my certainty that we have two completely different guys increases. I need answers!
Anyway, on top of that, all this directly plays into the extra-keycard conundrum.
(i.e. If the Henward at the chess set gave El (who has her powers available to her) his keycard so she could get down to the basement...then how did he, with no powers, get down to the basement before El without his keycard?)
Now it could absolutely be chalked up to stylizing, but it strikes me as off that one post-Soteria scene outfit Henward his a keycard...while the other does not.
This also plays into the "why is there so much blood?" question. Is Henward supposed to have blood on him at all? Or are these blood patterns doctored in? Are they remnants of a different event, perhaps the 1983 demogorgon incident? What's going on here?
