Last year, Funko turned The Prince Of Darkness into a POP! vinyl to celebrate the release of his excellent 2020 solo album Ordinary Man, with an all-black wearing Ozzy donning some bat wings and a fancy hat.

As part of their POP! Albums line (which has previously immortalised Black Sabbath's debut), Funko are set to drop an awesome Diary Of A Madman figure this summer, announcing the release as part of their two-day virtual POPapalooza event.
