Wondercon 2022 This Weekend!!!

It's been way too long since we last attended a show. Wondercon Anaheim is this weekend, April 1-3 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA. Badges can still be purchased HERE. If you've never been to Wondercon, it's a smaller con compared to SDCC. The exhibitor list w/map and programming is available HERE.

It's That Time of Year Again for SDCC 2021 or Comic-Con @ Home!

After a sporadic hiatus from blogging for most of 2020 and 2021, we're back just in time for SDCC 2021 or Comic Con @ Home again. With things slowly going back to normal, other job reduced hours so not working as much there which means a lot more down time to start blogging again about the latest toys, pop culture, comic cons etc... Health wise, we are all good. Hand injury from my other job has healed and haven't been back to the doctor since January of this year. 

A lot of companies have been announcing their comic-con exclusives and will continue to do so leading up to comic-con @ home or will have their own way of celebrating comic con this year virtually again since SDCC in San Diego won't be back until 2022 where by then all the covid variants will hopefully end and we can enjoy life as it was back in 2019. There will be panels again and lots of other fun stuff that CCI will have again this year. They will have new exclusive Comic Con merchandise for sale next week as well. Comic-Con @ Home is scheduled for July 23rd-25th.

Lots of Funko SDCC 2019 Exclusives

And it has begun! Last week a trio of Funko exclusives were announced (see here). The past couple of days Funko has been announcing a lot of different exclusives this year and most of them seem to be shared exclusives which is good for those who can't go to SDCC or those who were not fortunate to get a picked in in the SDCC portal.

Below are the exclusives that have been announced this week so far (6/17-6/19).

Wondercon 2017 Recap

Wondercon 2017 was back at the Anaheim Convention Center this year. Obviously, we would have loved it if Wondercon came back to San Francisco, but definitely glad to see them back at the Anaheim Convention Center. It was probably less than 2 weeks before Wondercon and we were still debating if we should cover the show this year. We already had plans to come down to So Cal so we were able to squeeze in some time to cover Wondercon.
