Funko POP! Purple Dave #36 captured Dave (Minion) in a bold variant that stood out in any Despicable Me 2 Movies POP! display. With his bright purple body and oversized silver goggles, this figure appealed to collectors who wanted a distinctive twist on a familiar character design. The compact POP! size made it easy to showcase on shelves or desks, whether as a standalone highlight or grouped with other Despicable Me releases.
This POP! featured Dave in a simple front-facing pose with a neutral, slightly smiling expression, emphasizing his large round eyes and clean sculpted lines. He wore solid black overalls with a centered emblem on the chest, matching black gloves, and black boots for a sharp contrast against the purple body and yellow accent on his side. As a standard POP!-size vinyl figure in the Movies category, Purple Dave #36 fit smoothly with the rest of the numbered Funko lineup and slotted neatly into box protectors and display cases.
Purple Dave drew from Despicable Me 2 (2013), part of the wider Despicable Me franchise that introduced the Minions to movie audiences worldwide and continued to be popular with collectors by
2014 and beyond. Fans who focused on the Movies POP! line often sought figures like this to complete their Despicable Me 2 character sets and to represent key variations from the film era. As a result, Purple Dave #36 served as both a recognizable piece of the 2014
Despicable Me 2 POP! wave and a clear reference point within Funko’s broader movie-based catalog.
