blind box

L.O.L. Surprise! Doll collectors will soon have a new addition to make to their collections, as MGA Entertainment has a slew of new product hitting stores just in time for Easter Baskets. While Easter will and should be a bit more subdued this year with everything happening right now, it is more important than ever […]

Super7 is my favorite toy company, hands down. They make such awesome, unique figures and collectibles, it is impossible to resist them. Throw in the fact that they are making masters of the Universe figures and they are hard to top. At New York Toy Fair this year, it feels like they are swinging for […]

Masters of the Universe Loyal Subjects figures are some of the coolest that the company has ever offered. Their first wave was easy to track down, and while the ridiculous odds of putting a full set together make it a little less fun to collect, damn if they are not fun to have on the […]

KidRobot has introduced blind box figures to its popular Sanrio line. These are food versions of everyone's favorite Hello Kitty characters, and feature very detailed sculpts. Hello Kitty as a box of french fries would be my favorite, but a lot of these are quite adorable. If you order a whole case of 24 blind […]

Super7 is bringing a ton of exclusives to NYCC this year. All of them are awesome, and it makes me really sad that I will not be in attendance to grab one of everything. Universal Monsters, Transformers, their first collaboration with MLB (hopefully even more to come!), Misfits, even The Great Garloo! They are just […]

Futurama and Kidrobot are teaming up again for some new collectibles. Available now, there are blind box keychains of some fan-favorites (Nibbler in a spacesuit!) and two different versions of Robot Santa: a naughty and a nice edition. Those are limited though, so best to get your orders in now at the Kidrobot store. Check […]

Crate Creatures recently came into our lives, and we were more than impressed with them. They are a total throwback to some of the toys I had when I was a kid, and MGA Entertainment really knocked these things out of the park. As a Monster Kid, these are right in my wheelhouse. Each of […]

This past February, I was lucky enough to get my hands on the Villaintine's Day Swag Bag from Starlit Creations! The month's theme was focused on the famous — and popular — Disney villains. I picked Maleficent, the nastiest fairy of them all from Sleeping Beauty. She is my favorite Disney character, so this was […]

Basic Fun!'s ever popular Mash 'Ems and Hatch 'Ems squishies lines are all the rage right now, and they have an impressive array of new products available that would be perfect for little ones Easter baskets. I know my 6-year-old cannot get enough of these things, and they have a surprising amount of playability that […]

I'm a complete sucker for blind boxes — especially when they're on clearance at my grocery store and are retro gaming-themed. While I tend to dabble more on the pinball side of things, I do genuinely love retro video games and arcade cabinets. The packaging for this Funko Mystery Mini blind box is awesome — […]

Stranger Things and Funko go together like PB&J. That may also be because they have a huge licensing deal with Netflix for Stranger Things merchandise. But who cares? I wanna buy it all anyway. It took awhile, but I have complete waves of the Pops (for now). I have the show on blu-ray. Shirts, pens, […]

Funko has more news than we can keep up with sometimes, so welcome to the first edition of the Funko News Desk! Lots of new announcements are coming at all times, so here we have some you may have missed! First, Teen Titans GO! is getting some love, with some new Rock Candy figures of […]

Funko knows they have us all on the hook. There are certain products and things that they put out that I just close my eyes and hand over my cash. And there are some things that I silently wish they never do, because I will run all over the place in all my free time […]

Skybound usually has one of the busier booths at San Diego Comic-Con every year, and as fans flock to it for signings galore, of course all of their various exclusives from the likes of The Walking Dead, Saga, Outcast, and more will be on display. This year, they are heading into the con with some […]

When Marvel put the clampdown on mutant-related licenses, I was quite sad. Some of my earliest childhood memories are walking into toy stores and buying all my favorite X-Men and X-Women from the old ToyBiz line of figures. They were always some of the most unique and well-sculpted figures, and it was never hard to […]

From the hotel room… these are $20 for a double set of Blind Box figurines from Skybound, available at San Diego Comic Con from tomorrow, both Invincible and The Walking Dead figurines. [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzZPm5wFOVA[/youtube] So… which will you get?
