Thanos and Thor Get Minico Statues with Iron Studios

Thor and Thanos are back and ready for the Endgame once again as Iron Studios announces new statues for their Minico series. These statues have their own unique design but are packed with adorable details. Thanos is featured in his golden armor with his double edged sword. He is posed on a rock base and the shading and paint scheme really brings out these details nicely. Thor is featured with his new weapon Stormbreaker and his bigger body style. Thor's eyes are also different colored which is consistent with the film's portrayal of him which is always good for collectibles. Their design is something that could pull away collectors but bigger head designs are nothing new especially with Funko being so hot. Avengers: Endgame fans can add these figures to their growing collection and be on the lookout for upcoming Iron Man and Captain America Minico statue from Iron Studios too.

Both Thor and Thanos Minico Statues from Iron Studios are priced at $34.99. Pre-orders are already live and you can find Thor located here and Thanos located here.

Let's kill him properly this time.

"More People Probably Died Of Bee Stings This Week Than Coronavirus " – Wizard World Cleveland Still On This Weekend

There are many calls on Reed POP to cancel ECCC in a week's time over coronavirus fears – often it seems from people who would like to be able to apply for refunds on their tickets, vendor fees, hotels and travel as a result. Many companies and guests have now declared that they are pulling out, though as it stands the show is still on. And the big boy in the room, Funko, seems to be going nowhere.

And while Reed has cancelled the London Book Fair for the same week, other shows are going on regardless. Last weekend's London Film And Comic Con had a big crowd and few no-shows, we mentioned Liverpool Comic Con kicking off today without a worry, and this weekend sees Wizard World Cleveland Comic Con go ahead as planned, at the Huntington Convention Center.

Local news station Fox8 reports that the show still has a full slate of events and will be continuing "it's standard operating procedure for our housekeeping team to do a deep cleaning on what we consider high touch areas twice a day and continuing to wipe things down. This isn't something that we developed right now, this is something that we do all the time here," says Huntington Convention Center Director David Johnson said. Show organizers say they're providing sanitizer stations and are following the latest advice from the CDC.

"That's what people do at our shows all the time. They understand they're gong to be in contact with people and they're washing their hands and they're sanitizing if they're feeling uncomfortable, but we want people to feel welcome and feel safe," said Wizard World spokesman Jerry Milani.

They also quote Wes Tillander of Swords, Posters and Comics from Atlanta who says "More people probably died of bee stings this week that coronavirus so no. On the ration of rolling the dice, you're pretty safe." As long as you use hand sanitizer after rolling those dice. You never know who else has been holding them. And kissing them for good luck… Doors open at 4pm and the show runs through to Sunday.

Funko Announces a New Product Line for Pop Fans: Pop Pins!

Funko has a lot of collectibles out there from Mystery Minis, Pops, Make-up, and so much more. This time it looks like they are expanding their reach with their newest products, Pop Pins! These are almost going to make Figpins have a run for their money as they feature the adorableness of Funko's Pop design. So far five different series are getting the Pop Pins, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Marvel, DC Comics, and Disney. So far 5 pins have been announced for each series and they all include a chase. I'm not sure how the chases will take place on if it'll be in its own box or what. To make these STAND out from other pins out there, each pin has stands on their backs to prop them up. These aren't small pins either as they stand 4 inches tall so they will definitely stand out with your Funko HQ jacket or your Funko collection. My favorite one so far is the glitter Loki chase pin and it would be awesome to add to my collection as a Loki fan. From what I have heard is that they will come in boxes like Pops but a little thinner and would look good in or out of the box.

Pre-orders are not live just yet and a release date has not been given either. These mysterious collectible Pop pins are a nice surprise and if and when they do go live you'll be able to find them here. What figures ill you want to become a Pop Pin next??

Pop Pins have arrived!

Coming soon: Funko Pop! Pins – DC

Coming soon: Funko Pop! Pins – Marvel

Coming soon: Funko Pop! Pins – Disney

Coming soon: Funko Pop! Pins – Harry Potter

Coming soon: Funko Pop! Pins – Star Wars
