Vinylmation World found a few more Popcorns figures on display at Comic Con.
Goofy was assumed because of the John Carter video a few months back. His eyes look great. The hat is wonderfully sized with the rest of the figure.
Jack Skellington! Wow, so glad the bat bow tie is a separate piece instead of just painted on.
Looks like there’s more today from SDCC, and Vinylmation Exchange is the place to find it. The first is a preview of the Prep and Landing Two Pack posted by Bryce Hamamoto. Check out the cool hats!
The second is another free giveaway, this time advertising the Frankenweenie movie. Now we saw the Wreck-It-Ralph freebie going for lots of money on eBay, I wonder if this figure will be as popular.
What do you think?
Update: 7/14/12 Today we saw a picture on vinylmation exchange that added another figure to the classics collection. Skye Stolnitz put the above picture up. Looks like the added Clarabell.
Picture is from Vinylmation Kingdom who credits Vinylmation Exhange. WOW!!! Can not wait for this series! Donald looks soooooo angry and awesome.
“Look at all the hats!!!”-M.C.
You might have seen this picture from a earlier post, but look below the Star Wars 2 set. What are those? They look like vinylmation! They are green and white and black. The colors sorta make them seem like Kermits wearing Mickey Ears.
We got the answer from Thomas Scott in a tweet today. He posted the above picture.
It looks like these will be a green variant of the Theme Park Favorite Classic Fan. Below is the Red version.
What do you think?
Evilos tweeted this pictures he found on Facebook fromthe San Diego Comic Con. Check out the Star Wars 2 series! I see an X-Wing pilot. What can you see?
Oh, and then the specially boxed Help Me Obi-wan Hologram Leia. Awesome!!!
Purchase the Comic Con Boy and Girl combo no superpowers (or Comic Con ticket) needed. Just stop by the Disney Store where they unexpectedly popped up for purchase.
We were told non-attendees would have to wait at least a day, but that does not seem to be the case. Just a couple quick notes… The set is designed by Eric Caszatt. The LE on Disney Store says “LE 1000”, the VM Events page says “LE 2000”. Not sure which is correct or if this means only 1000 are available at Disney Store Online and 1000 via QR code at Comic Con. Also, you need to type in “Comic Con” into the search at the Disney Store website. A “Vinylmation” search did not show this set.
Has Tim Burton changed the face of Vinylmation? At Comic Con, guests will be able to purchase an LE 1000 Disney vinyl collectible for $40 based on his upcoming movie Frankenweenie.
Represented is Sparky-Saurus, Victor’s dog in the movie. The interesting thing about this is by all accounts, they are calling this a “Vinylmation.” Most articles and press releases use the word Vinylmation either in the title of what this is or the article/description itself. Sure we have seen a ton of different molds by now, but this would be a complete departure… a figure that comes on a vinyl display stand and background. We contacted Disney and I guess time will tell (once we see the packaging) if this is a true Vinylmation and therefore a sign of things to come. I wouldn’t mind seeing “sets” packaged as Vinylmation. Such as a Park Starz 3 pack with a vinyl ride vehicle. How about Brer Bear, Fox and Rabbit with a model of Splash Mountain to place behind them?

Disney Store will release two (2) of these very limited-edition figures during each day of Comic Con.

Be sure to stop by the Funko booth (#4829/4928) to pick them up. Each figure retails for $10.00. 250/each available per design.
Update: 7/6/12 Queen and King of Hearts shown at the WDW Trade Show. Also saw Park Starz Pink Squid Variant.
San Diego Comic Con is on July 12-15 in California and Disney has announced several Vinylmation releases spread through out the event. According to the Vinylmation blog, they will be available for purchase online. (But we assume they will also be at the event)

Comic Con Boy and Girl Two 3″ Combo LE 2000 $34.95A part of the Comic Con celebration Disney is releasing this two pack set of two kids dressed up in costumes (much like what many of the people who attend the event do). I like the girl’s use of a accessories, both a cape and glasses. Very cool. |
 |
The boy is a little more Robin themed. he’s got a mask and a little hat. He’s got the costume and a utility belt (which just happens to hold vinylmation).
This is a great set, although we had hoped this might have been the introduction of Marvel by having the kids dress up as Marvel characters. |

Popcorns Mickey Mouse Pie Eye Variant LE 5000 $24.95In celebration of the upcoming Popcorns series, Disney is releasing a black and white variant of the Mickey design. (Similar to Funko’s Metal Mickey from Comic Con last year) |
Update: 6/27/12 Box added.
Over at the vinylmation Facebook page they just posted a first look at a figure from the Popcorns Vinylmation line. As we found out last week, they will be selling a special variant from the Popcorns line at Comic-Con next month. Today we got a first look at the full figure of Mickey. It’s black and white AND pie-eyed, so this is the variant they will be selling at Comic-Con. What do you think? Do you like this series?
Update: 6/27/12 Today Disney put up a picture of the box that the Popcorns series will come in. If anything, it helps explain the name. It really does look like a popcorn box. What do you think?
And here’s a look at the back and side of the figure. Nothing really new to see though…
