Ghost Rider Blazes a Trail With New Funko Pop! Rides Figure

Marvel's Spirit of Vengeance rolls in, armed with hellfire, chains and cuteness, in Funko's new Ghost Rider Pop! Rides figure.

A deal with Mephisto never turned out as cute as this new Ghost Rider Pop! Rides figure from Funko.

In Marvel Comics lore, stunt rider Johnny Blaze sold his soul to the devil in exchange for curing his adoptive father of cancer. As is the case with such hellish contracts, however, that one came with loopholes, and resulted in Blaze being bonded with the demon Zarathos and transformed into a fiery Spirit of Vengeance.

The flaming skull and motorcycle remain in this Pop! Rides figure, which nevertheless looks far more adorable than vengeful. It may even be enough for collectors to forget those two Nicolas Cage, and display the toy in a place of pride on their shelves. Just be careful of the hellfire.

A Previews exclusive, the Ghost Rider Pop! figure is available in two versions: regular and glow in the dark, priced at $29.99 each. The figure is available now for preorder, and is expected to ship in October.

This of course isn't the first Ghost Rider figure from Funko. The collectibles company previously released a Funko Dorbz Ridez and Pop! versions of the fiery Marvel character.
