Stranger Thingsreturns for its fifth and final season later this year, and Funko is thoroughly prepared for it. While I’m sure we’ll be gettingFunko Popsof some description to coincide with season five’s arrival on Netflix, today, during Funko’s San Diego Comic-Con panel, it revealed elements from Stranger Things are coming to its Pop Yourself range.
After turning thousands of characters and creatures from countless IPs into Funko Pops, the collectible creators decided to hand the power over to you in 2023by introducing Pop Yourself. As the name implies, Pop Yourself lets you design your very own Funko Pop. Elements you can use to make your Pop uniquely yours have been added over time,including accessories that represent all 32 NFL teams, and now Pop Yourself is crossing over with The Upside Down.
Nothing from the Stranger Things Pop Yourself crossover was shown, although attendees at Thursday’s SDCC Funko panel were given a very special keepsake as part of the reveal. A Demodog Funko Buddy, similar to the pet companions you can add during the Pop Yourself process. Unfotunately, the Demodog figures will not be a part of the full Stranger Things Pop Yourself range.
