It seems we cover new vinyl Pop! figures on a nearly daily basis and every new show, movie, or video game just leads to more things we have to find shelf space for. Thankfully, it seems Funko is being mindful that we don’t own a warehouse and giving us some Rick and Morty collectibles that won’t take up too much space.Â
Changing gears from their usual Pop! version of everything, Funko announced a new batch of Pint Size Heroes on a recent blog post that feature a lot of familiar faces from Adult Swim‘s massively popular show, Rick and Morty. For those unfamiliar, these tiny collectibles come in sealed bags so there’s a little adventure in finding out which ones you get in each pack. It’s a refreshing change of pace to how we’ve all gotten used to collecting things.
Nowadays we point, click, purchase, and ship the thing we want which is undeniably convenient but it lacks the excitement we once felt going to a comic shop to open a pack of collectible cards hoping for a rare special edition foil or hologram card.Â
These tiny figures have their usual retailers (Toys ‘R Us, Target, Hot Topic) for certain exclusives, which we kind of appreciate since it forces us to go out and really prove our fandom if we want that special golfing Mr. Meeseeks. Though, having a Meeseeks box to help collect these sure would come in handy.
If the idea of buying something sight unseen is too much for you to bear, the blog post also included Funko’s latest “Vnyl” figures of the show’s titular characters.
You’ll have to wait till January for the duo in Vynl but the Pint Size heroes hit stores in December. Think of them as a little mystery treat for yourself while you’re out and about shopping for the holidays!
Which one is your favorite? Do you like the mystique of mystery packs? Let’s discuss in the comments below!
