Santa Carlos
Draped in a plush, velvet-red Santa suit with white trim, open chest, and holiday shorts, Santa Carlos (1998) brings festive flair with unapologetic sensuality. His black belt cinches the waist just enough, while his classic Santa hat tilts playfully to the side. Boots on, shirt off—this is a seasonal icon who redefines what holiday cheer looks like. Masculine, magnetic, and full of queer charisma, Carlos transforms the North Pole fantasy into a runway of desire.
Released in 1998, Santa Carlos was part of a bold holiday expansion in the Billy universe. More than just a holiday novelty, he embodies the playful spirit of queer celebration, subverting the classic Santa trope with joy, confidence, and a wink. This figure became a cult favorite among collectors, combining Christmas camp with cultural representation.
