BC Toy Spotting: Avengers: Endgame, NECA, Funko, Transformers, and More!

Welcome to the latest edition of BC Toy Spotting! We are in and out of stores pretty much every day, and we figure (ha!) why not show all of our fellow collectors what we are coming across on pegs and shelves. As collectors, we know that staying on top of what is in stores can be almost a full time job, so we are here to help you with your toy hunts and outings. This week we found new Funko product as we always do, new Transformers continue to hit pegs, some new NECA figures, Loyal Subjects, and some figures from some little indie film called Avengers: Endgame ahead of street date! Let’s take a look.

Starting off with this weeks Funko finds, the latest Captain Marvel Pops are flooding stores, and at this point its next to impossible to avoid them. Carol holding the Tesseract in the lunchbox, Goose going full Flerken, and more are all available. New Harry Potter, Aladdin, and Fallout 5 Star figures are now in stores, along with Funko cereals for Rugrats, Power Rangers, and Rick and Morty. The Green Ranger cereal was a ECCC shared exclusive with FYE, and other shared ECCC exclusives are still around in stores. Zoolander Pops are still shipping, as is director Guillermo del Toro. Rounding out this week is the new Little Mermaid Ariel exclusive hitting BoxLunch right now.

While at FYE I also found new horror Tiki mugs for Pennywise and Pinhead, NECA’s Paleface figure from Pan’s Labyrinth, and the new wave of horror icons Loyal Subjects figures.

Transformers findings this week include the new wave of War for Cybertron: Siege figures. Chromia, Six-Gun, Ironhide, and Prowl are popping up more and more at the moment, along with Studio Series Rampage and Optimus Prime from Bumblebee.

Gamestop this week got in the new wave of Diamond Select Kingdom Hearts figures featuring Tron, the new NECA Spyro the Dragon figure, two more Marvel Mini Heroes figures, and the latest DC Collectibles Essential wave.

Other awesome items this week include two new great Hellboy shirts at Hot Topic celebrating his 25th anniversary and the new film, the 12 inch Mattel Dr. Sivana from Shazam!, and the Bruce Lee MEGO doll is in stores now.

Finally this week, my local Target totally broke street date and put out the first wave of Hasbro’s basic figures from Avengers: Endgame. People sleep on these figures because of Legends, but these are pretty awesome for the price point, especially for younger kids. This wave features some of the Avengers in their suits from the trailer, along with Ronin, War Machine, and a Captain Marvel. Street date for Avengers product is March 31, so be on the lookout everyone!

Funko Reveals Their Star Wars Celebration Chicago Exclusives

Funko has revealed their exclusives that will be available at this years Star Wars Celebration being held in Chicago April 11-15. One thing is for certain: fans of chrome Pops will be super excited. Funko runs their booth at Celebration like SDCC and other big cons, meaning that the only way to get into their booth is by entering a lottery. The announcement for that will come soon I am sure, as the lottery system will also be in place for the Star Wars Celebration store, LEGO, and others. Let’s take a look at what they are bringing!

Blue Chrome Star Wars Pops! Darth Vader, Princess Leia, Stormtrooper, Boba Fett, Yoda, and Chewbacca will be the six available blue chrome Pops. Each is limited to only 2500 pieces, so good luck! These are sure to sell quickly, as those numbers would break down to only 500 a day of each.

If you are NOT at Star Wars Celebration, you still have a shot at chrome Pops, as these will be shared exclusive in gold at retailers nationwide. I am pretty sure this is the first time they are offering shared exclusives like this in a different chrome color than what will be at the show. Look for these to hit stores that Thursday when the show begins.

To help celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Phantom Menace, two new Pops from that film will be available at the Funko booth, including a desert showdown Darth Maul and Watto.

Finally, three new Star Wars Pop Pez will be at the booth as well, from Return of the Jedi you can add Salacious Crumb, Jabba, and a Gamorrean Guard to your collection.

Which Funko Star Wars Celebration exclusives will YOU be getting? Let us know below!
