Look out Marvel POP Vinyls collectors–Funko is at it again! Determined to rule the world and clean out our wallets, Funko has been releasing a seemingly endless number of Marvel Funko POP Vinyls over the past year, and now an all-new, unannounced exclusive has shown up. The Marvel Funko POP Vinyls Captain America The Winter Soldier Black & White Captain America has now shown up in stores–and if you want him, you’re going to have to head to Barnes and Noble book stores!
The Black & White Captain America The Winter Soldier POP Vinyls figure comes in the same box as the regular version of the figure, and shares the “#41” designation in the Funko Marvel POP Vinyls numbering system. The only way you can tell that the figure you’re buying is a Barnes and Noble exclusive is by the sticker on the bubble of the front of the package.
This particular Captain America 2 Black & White movie exclusive is an unnumbered edition, so the production number of this figure is probably several thousands units.
The back of the box for the Black & White Captain America 2 POP Vinyls figure is identical to the back of the box for the regular figures–there’s no markings whatsoever to indicate that this is an exclusive figure.
Personally, I’m sort of “ehn” toward this exclusive. I bought (and don’t regret buying) the black & white Loki exclusive, but that was Tom Hiddleston Loki, who I love a whole lot more than Captain America right now. I also bought the black & white Thor Funko variant–because I bought Loki. But this Black and White Captain America? Well, here I think I’m going to draw the line.
If you don’t have a local Barnes and Noble bookstore or they’re sold out of the exclusive, plenty of online sellers are selling the Captain America Black & White POP Vinyl figure. The online Barnes & Noble Booksellers website is sold out of the exclusive and has removed the listing for it as of writing, but they were selling it for $12.99 plus tax and shipping before they sold out.
As much as I love vinyl figures, I’m giving this black & white Captain America movie POP Vinyls figure a pass. How about you, Marvel collectors? Are you in for this Barnes & Noble exclusive Funko Bobble-Head figure, or is this monochrome Captain America not a necessity for your collection?
