Funko has become a premiere place for collectors to get their fix, and anime is one of the company's top focuses. Everything from Naruto to One Punch Man has a POP line of its own, and Dragon Ball is no exception. So, you can see why fans are determined to make this special Funko POP happen.

Seriously, even Vegeta approves of the collectible. How can you not sign off on the toy now?

Over on Twitter, Christopher Sabat got plenty of notice when he shared one of the best custom Funko POPs out there. The image, which can be seen below, shows off a unique POP bringing together the best of Dragon Ball and Jurassic World.

"Seriously, this custom hybrid Vegeta + Jeff Goldblum Funko is giving me life," the voice actor wrote. Sabat, who plays Vegeta in the English dub, shouted out Denver Comic Con for hosting the vendor who made this delightful piece.

Looking at the piece, you can see which Funkos were used to make the mash-up. Vegeta was lifted from his Dragon Ball Z POP as his scouter is firmly in place. His head has been transferred to the body of Ian Malcolm, Jurassic Park's most sensual scientist. His POP is a special one as he's posed on the floor, mimicking the famous scene from 1993's Jurassic Park. So, if you want to make this custom Funko figure for yourself, you can buy these separate pieces and invest in some hot glue. Just, make sure to post photos of Ian's head on Vegeta's armor-clad body, okay?

If you are interested in the anime, Dragon Ball Super is currently airing its English dub on Adult Swim during the Toonami programming block Saturday evenings at 9:30 p.m. It is also available to stream on Funimation and Amazon Video. The Japanese language release of the series is complete, and available to stream on Funimation, VRV, and Crunchyroll.

Want to catch up with the English dub? The first 52 episodes of Dragon Ball Super are now available to stream on FunimationNOW, VRV, and available to purchase on Amazon Video as well. The 52 episodes span the full range of what has aired in the North America and covers the "Battle of Gods" arc, "Revival of F" arc, the "Universe 6" arc, and bringing the series right up to the current TV airings of the "Future Trunks" arc.
