West Virginia Mountaineers Vinyl Figure

Since 1934, the sight of buckskins, a coonskin cap, and a frontier muzzleloader along the sidelines in Morgantown has defined West Virginia University athletics. The West Virginia Mountaineers Vinyl Figure distills that Appalachian tradition into a freestanding three-dimensional vinyl collectible built for alumni bookshelves, study desks, and game-day dens. Standing beside or inside its navy-and-gold POP! College #01 window box, the figure pairs stylized proportions—dark button eyes, a determined brow, and a full sculpted beard—with the authentic frontier gear of The Mountaineer.

Appalachian Frontier Regalia & Sculpted Surface Detail

Every surface of the molded vinyl figure translates a piece of West Virginia mascot history into tactile relief. Crowning the head is an oversized coonskin cap molded with deep fur ridges, a distinct black-and-silver raccoon snout over the forehead, and a heavy ringed tail that drapes past the left shoulder. Below the bearded jawline, saddle-brown buckskin attire features individual rows of sculpted fringe running across the chest yoke, sleeve cuffs, and trouser hems above laced frontier boots.

Crisp multi-color paintwork separates the miniature accessories from the warm brown tunic. A crossbody strap supports a hip satchel stamped with the gold Flying WV monogram, while a curved ivory-toned powder horn hangs from the waist belt. In his right hand, the mascot grips a full-length flintlock rifle finished with brass-toned barrel bands, lock plate, and a flat buttplate that rests flush against the tabletop to reinforce the figure’s balanced, freestanding stance.

For collectors who preserve packaging alongside the figure, the included cardstock collector box features full-color West Virginia Mountaineers graphics, the gold Flying WV emblem, number 01 badging, and a clear front-and-side viewing pane that keeps the mascot visible while shielding the painted vinyl from dust.
