Sideshow returns to San Diego Comic Con 2022

SIDESHOW ANNOUNCE THEIR RETURN TO SAN DIEGO COMIC CON WITH A HYBRID EVENT FEATURING ONLINE PRODUCT REVEALS AND MORE!

 

The Con is back on! As fans celebrate the return of San Diego Comic Con, pop culture collectibles giants Sideshow have unveiled plans for a hybrid event that combines their much-loved SDCC booth experience with an online “Sideshow Con” to create weeks of geeky content! 

 

Over the last few years, Sideshow has pioneered a unique event format that combined live streamed content, with virtual tours of a physical art gallery, games, contests, and VR components – all with the aim of keeping the convention spirit alive during the pandemic.  

 

As pop culture fandom slowly returns to live-events Sideshow has announced that they will not be abandoning the online side of their con planning. Rather, they will be hosting a web-based "Sideshow Con" the week before the physical event – followed immediately by an in-person appearance at SDCC! 

 

Sideshow’s PR Manager, Andy Smith, said:

 

“There is a magic and an energy at the heart of these physical events, and it was our aim from the outset to capture at least a small part of that vibe. Sideshow Con is as much a celebration as it is a showcase. For us, this is about community and fandom as well as the art. I think that’s what made it work so well.

 

I’m originally from the UK, and for many years visiting San Diego Comic Con was just a dream for me. I watched the con online as best I could, and lived vicariously through fan videos. I would have loved Sideshow Con back then, and I’m so happy that online content like this is becoming more commonplace. 

 

This year should be really fun, as Sideshow Con will also serve as a kind of pre-game party. We have a bunch of content lined up with some epic reveals, as well as contests, special offers and more.  Sideshow and our partners will be celebrating pop culture for a whole week online, then rolling straight into a big physical event.  I highly recommend that fans sign up for free pre-registration, because we’ve got some very exciting stuff that we’ll be revealing early before the con floor opens”

FIRST LOOK AT MYSTERIO’S IRON MAN ILLUSION

Just ahead of the worldwide release, Sideshow's newest UNBOXING VIDEO reveals the first look at Mysterio’s Iron Man Illusion 1/6 Scale Figure by Hot Toys.

Mysterio has trapped Spider-Man within a series of horrifying overlapping visions. Using his holographic technology and projector drones to torment and disorient the young Peter Parker, he even shows a decaying Iron Man emerging from the grave!

 

The Mysterio’s Iron Man Illusion 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure by Hot Toys is inspired by the incredible Illusion Battle in Marvel's Spider-Man: Far From Home. 

This ultra-detailed new 1/6 scale figure recreates the unsettling vision of Iron Man that Mysterio uses to terrorize Spider-Man in the movie. The Mysterio’s Iron Man Illusion 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure features heavily weathered and corroded metallic armor covered with scratches and rust. The armor includes a newly developed damaged helmet (with LED light-up function), as well as light-up LEDs on the hands and the arc reactor that add chilling drama and illuminate the exposed wiring beneath the suit. 

The elaborate diorama display base inspired by the fight scene also includes an LED light-up function, as well as additional pixelated effects and a drone with green smoke effect. 

Pre-Order the nightmarish Mysterio’s Iron Man Illusion 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure for your Marvel collection today at Sideshow.com.

THE DUDE 1/6 SCALE FIGURE FROM SIDESHOW

Just ahead of the figure's worldwide release, Sideshow's newest UNBOXING VIDEO gives fans an up-close look at The Dude 1/6 Scale Figure.

Masters Of The Universe Diamond Ray Of Disappearance Limited Edition Prop Replica

Factory Entertainment's design team, working with Mattel, wanted to create a real-world interpretation of this important 'McGuffin' that would bridge the realms of fantasy and reality. The Factory Entertainment team spent many hours studying the vintage animation, and drew inspiration from both the 1983 and 2002 series, as well as the cover art of the 2001 commemorative VHS release. This replica has been designed to capture all the iterations as a singular blended execution.

The box was first sculpted as a 3D model. Taking inspiration from ancient ossuary boxes, fine details where then added by hand to give the appearance of age and wear. It features mystical engraved script and is cast from polystone.

The stone itself is supported on an industrial-looking cradle that houses an LED lighting effect. This effect is triggered by a hidden sensor when the box is opened, lighting the diamond from beneath.

A round-cut diamond shape was chosen to maximize the sparkle when the LED light shines through its many facets. The stone is high pressure cast in acrylic.

Every replica is supplied in a full color collector box and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Limited Edition of no more than 1,000 pieces.

The Diamond Ray Of Disappearance starts shipping July 1, 2022!

Regular Price: $249.99 - Factory Direct Discount: $224.99 For a limited time, all MOTU Diamond Ray Of Disappearance Prop Replicas ordered through FactoryEnt.com will receive early bird pricing of $224.99 each!

About The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power brings to screens for the very first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth's history. This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings books, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and one of the greatest villains that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness. Beginning in a time of relative peace, the series follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared reemergence of evil to Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elf capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the farthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone.
