If you follow me on social media, you know that when my Funko Pop Civil War Hawkeye & Spider-Man arrived, I was pretty annoyed. I was really excited since I love Hawkeye. Then I opened the box, went to stand him up, and imagine that, he kept falling over. I checked the box for a stand but nothing. What's really annoying is the fact that his Pop has a wide stance. There really isn't any reason for him to topple over. I know others have had issues with Hawkeye as well. Sadly, I put him back in the box until I could figure something out. Then I was at Michael's the other day for lights for my Hot Toys (that will be another post) when I started looking around to see if I could find something to use as a base. I came across the perfect little wooden circle. It wasn't too big or thick. Plus it ... Continue Reading...
Funko Friday: SDCC Exclusives I Want
Funko Friday is back! Sadly, I'm not going to San Diego Comic-Con this year, but that doesn't mean I haven't been keeping an eye on exclusives. The one thing I love that Funko started doing was selling their "Con Exclusives" outside of the show. Granted, they can be hard to track down but at least it gives us a chance. This year only a few caught my eye but I'm going to do my best to get my hands on them. In most cases you'll find the Funko items at stores like Hot Topic, Barnes & Noble, and GameStop! Now onto my list! Dorbz: Burton Batman 3-Pack (Batman, Catwoman, Penguin) The only reason I want this is because of Catwoman. I'd love if they gave her a proper Pop! Maybe one day down the line. Pop! Marvel: Doctor Strange – Doctor Strange with Rune I'm not ... Continue Reading...
Funko Fridays: How do you display your Funko?
I honestly have them all over the place. I have some in my room on random shelves. I have some in my Detolf mixed among my Hot Toys. I have them at work! I'm not sure there's a space around me that doesn't have a Pop somewhere in it. I'm sure you can all relate! They slowly just start to take over every surface! I blogged about this a few weeks ago, but at work I now have a plastic riser on my desk to help make room for more Pops. I spend most of my time at work, like many of us, so it's nice to be surrounded by my nerdy things. I might bring a few from home to add to it, or just order more because why not? But now I'm going to share with you a few different Funko Pop display cases/options I've come across! Custom POP Display Case: $69.99 This is available from Awesome ... Continue Reading...
Funko Fridays: Spice Racks For Pop Displays!
It's Funko Friday! The theme for this week was Show & Tell but I wanted to change it up, again. The only new Pops I have are Agent Carter and Deadpool and I already did posts on them. Like most Pop collectors, I have them all over the place. I have them in my room (I live at home), in the living room, at work. I bet if I looked I could find one in my car. I don't have never ending space though, and that was obvious on my desk at work. I had them all in a nice little line but was pretty much out of room for them. I have other goodies like framed art that take up space as well. I finally decided to do something about it and started poking around the internet to see what I could find. Basically, I knew I wanted something that had levels, that's the only way I could "add" to the space I have. ... Continue Reading...
Funko Fridays: Deadpool Collector Corps Unboxing!
I know this isn't the theme for the week but my box arrived and I figured what the hell. I've really been looking forward to this box since it was announced. I love Deadpool and couldn't wait to see what goodies were included! As always, the box came with a patch and pin. I really need to start putting these things on the jacket I bought. Oops. They aren't anything super special but I do like them. If you were hoping for a shirt, you're in luck! This time around there's a super cute Deadpool Funko shirt! I love these shirts and glad we scored one for free. I always think about picking one up but never do. Of course there's the free comic too. After seeing the nice mix of items in the GOTG box, I was hoping for more of the same this time around. While we didn't get one of the mugs, ... Continue Reading...
