Funko Pop Movie Moments Ron Weasley riding chess piece

Movie Moments Ron Weasley riding chess piece (Harry Potter)

A valiant knight

For this superb movie moments, Funko chose to represent Ron playing this famous chess game on the back of the piece for the knight. We find a chess piece in dark gray marble whose details are very nicely represented. There is first a round base then a second smaller base and the horse is rearing on its hind legs. The details of the coat as well as the saddle and helmet are very nicely represented and the round head is cleverly adapted to the style of the pop figures. Ron, on the other hand, is wearing brown pants and a simple t-shirt and plaid shirt. His finger is raised to show that he is ordering the other pieces and of course, we find the red hair of the Weasleys.

Ron’s talent

Ron Weasley is Harry Potter’s best friend in the films of the saga, and forms, with Hermione, the trio of friends who are going to live incredible adventures but also more and more dark and dangerous. In the first movie, the Philosopher’s Stone was hidden in the castle by Dumbledore for his friend Nicolas Flamel. But Harry and his friends suspect that someone is trying to steal it. They think it’s Snape, but it’s actually Professor Quirrell who wants it for Voldemort, with whom he is temporarily sharing his body. Before they can get to the stone, they have to get past several traps, including a life-size chess game. Ron is not necessarily the most serious or the most intelligent of the group but he is particularly gifted for chess and it is thus thanks to him that the three friends will manage to pass this test to reach the stone.
