Pop! Directors: Alfred Hitchcock


The Master of Suspense directed 53 films, won too many awards to mention
 and cemented his place as one of the most influential filmmakers in the world.
And now Alfred Hitchcock is available as a Pop! vinyl figure holding a movie
clapboard for Psycho, arguably his best-known film.

SDCC Funko Pop Haul


We came we saw and We Funko Pop'd at this year's San Diego Comic Con.  Although, we only had a late Sunday slot to buy Funkos and there wasn't much left, we were able to order a few online and pick up a few at the con.  Check out the video below to see what we picked up!!

Who Could They Be At SDCC?!?


As we race toward this year's San Diego Comic Con all attendees (like me) have been bombarded with all the possibilities that may await them on Harbor Drive.  We also have begun to finalize plans, confirm reservations and start mapping out plans to best maximize our time there. I for one just changed hotels to be a little closer to the beach, the airport and the convention center.  This year we will be staying in San Diego in gorgeous Point Loma!! But, with all that being planned out, reserved and confirmed that isn't the only thing that is keeping us awake at night.  With SDCC announcing and implementing the new Exclusive Items Portals the anxiety has risen to a level 10 on the geek-o-meter. This year instead of standing in line for your favorite exclusive item or signing, SDCC rolled out their portal for a random drawing for Funko, Lego, Hasbro and UCC (what ever that is). For some of us that means we get a fair chance at getting in a desired line for a desired exclusive or autograph.  This year I will actually get some sleep.  Although, just getting into the Convention Hall can be a struggle in itself, knowing whether you have to stand in line only to stand in another line FOR A CHANCE at an exclusive is a little less stressful.  
But, this year I have a small advantage because of my Entertainment Earth distributor status.  I not only get to hang out at the VIP section in the booth.  I am able to get first in line passes and signings each day.  So, now my worry is WHO WILL THEY BE!!  I have researched a little and in the past Entertainment Earth has hosted the cast of Twin Peaks and the one and only William Shatner!! I begin thinking about the exclusives and what they have been posting on Twitter. The whole "Thanos" is coming and with exclusive items from Avengers Infinity War it makes me wonder will they host Josh Brolin for signings? Or someone from the movie.  Then I thought well they are getting a shared Funko Hellboy Exclusive.. Will Ron Pearlman be a guest in their booth? The possibilities are endless and I am now wondering how many times can I circle their booth without getting dizzy. 
Keep Checking back here, the facebook page and youtube for the live feeds and we will find out together!!

San Diego Comic Con Will Have No Shortage Of Funko Pops

With SDCC just around the corner Funko is revving up their Exclusive engines with not only Convention Only Exclusives but Shared Exclusives across a plethora of retail platforms.  And there is a Funko For everyone! From Marvel To DBZ to Hanna Barbera and Harry Potter to name a few, and the list continues to everyday.  

Good news for those of us who get to actually attend SDCC with hopes of making it in the coveted Funko Line,  SDCC is adopting the online lottery system for not only Funko, but all the major collectible retailers ie Hasbro and UCC to give every one an equal chance to get in the line to buy their favorite Pop! Lego Action figure or Exclusive toy.  Other Convention retailers take the presale approach and either ship your item after the con or you can pick it up at the con.  

But it is shaping up to be another good year on Harbor Bay and the fan boys and girls can't be more excited!!
