Jonas "The Skipper" Grumby: Portrayed by Alan Hale Jr., is the captain of the S.S. Minnow and a central character on Gilligan's Island. A World War II Navy veteran, the Skipper is a skilled sailor whose three-hour tour turned into an indefinite stay on an uncharted desert isle.

Leadership Role: Known for his nautical knowledge, leadership skills, and short temper (especially with Gilligan), the Skipper often takes on the role of the group's authority figure. Despite his frustrations with his "little buddy" Gilligan, he maintains a close, almost father-son relationship with his first mate.

Iconic Appearance: The Skipper is recognizable by his captain's hat, blue shirt, and larger-than-life personality. When Gilligan inevitably ruins a rescue attempt or creates some new island crisis, the Skipper's trademark response is to remove his hat and hit Gilligan with it – a comedic gesture that became one of the show's running gags.

Cultural Impact: Alan Hale Jr.'s portrayal of the Skipper made the character a beloved fixture in television history, representing leadership, resourcefulness, and determination in the face of constant challenges on the island.

Classic TV Series: Gilligan's Island is an American sitcom that aired on CBS from September 26, 1964, to April 17, 1967. The show followed the comedic adventures of seven castaways as they attempted to survive and escape from a previously uninhabited island where they were shipwrecked.

Memorable Cast: The series featured Bob Denver as Gilligan, Alan Hale Jr. as the Skipper, Jim Backus as Thurston Howell III, Natalie Schafer as Eunice "Lovey" Wentworth Howell, Tina Louise as Ginger Grant, Russell Johnson as Professor Roy Hinkley, and Dawn Wells as Mary Ann Summers.

Enduring Legacy: Despite running for only three seasons, the show became a cultural phenomenon and has enjoyed continued popularity in syndication around the world, making it one of the most recognizable TV series of all time.

Comedy Format: The show's premise centered around the castaways' failed attempts to get off the island, often thwarted by Gilligan's well-meaning but clumsy interventions, creating endless comedic situations that delighted audiences for generations.

Company History: Funko was founded in 1998 and initially focused on creating nostalgic bobbleheads. In 2010, the company introduced the Pop! Vinyl line, which quickly became their flagship product and a global collectible phenomenon.

Pop! Design: The distinctive Funko Pop! style features characters with oversized heads, simplified body designs, and black dot eyes. This uniform style allows for incredible diversity in characters while maintaining a recognizable brand aesthetic.

Licensing: Funko holds licenses for thousands of properties across movies, TV, comics, video games, sports, and more. This extensive licensing library allows them to create figures from virtually any popular culture franchise.

Collecting Culture: Funko Pop! figures have developed a massive collector community, with some rare or exclusive figures becoming highly sought after. The numbered system and various exclusives create a robust collecting ecosystem.

Nostalgic Appeal: This particular Gilligan's Island collection allows fans to own miniature versions of their favorite castaways in the signature Funko style, bringing a touch of classic television nostalgia to any collection.

Stackable, Safe, and Secure: Featuring a secure locking lid, these 4" inch Funko POP! protectors are made with ultra-strong and scratch-resistant, crystal-clear PET plastic. They elevate your Funko POP! display while providing essential protection.

UV and Scratch-Resistant: The high-grade PET plastic is engineered to protect your Funko POP! figures from the elements. Each pop case comes with a wrapping film that prevents tears and scratches.

Gilligan's Island Collection: This Skipper Pop! makes an excellent addition to any classic TV or Gilligan's Island collection. Consider pairing it with other characters from the series for a complete castaway display.
