Starting in February of 2001, Funskool figures were massively imported into the collecting community. Within a few years, dozens of dealers offered Funskool figures for $3-$5 each. Of the many army builders that Funskool offered, it was the Night Viper that grabbed the attention of the collecting world. At the time, Night Viper figures were starting to get incredibly expensive. For a short time, he was the most expensive army builder in the line. But, the supply of Funskool figures helped solve collector demand for the character since the Funskool was very similar to the Hasbro release. Collectors army built these figures in droves. And, it was one of the very few figures that would still sell out at online dealers into 2002. There's not a ton of material on the figure out there. But, here's the best I could find of the Funskool Night Viper from around the web.
