I bow down to Funko, who is the undisputed king of the surprise exclusive. I write a variety of toy blogs, so I’m watching for new releases from various toy companies pretty much every hour of my life. But there is no company–none–that keeps me on my toes more than Funko. Surprise releases can debut any time, any day–and we got one such Funko Marvel figure surprise release today! Limited to 500, the exclusive Funko Metallic Compound Hulk POP! Vinyls figure is now in-stock and up for order!
My vigilance paid off, as I got my first glimpse at a previously unannounced Funko Marvel POP! Vinyl figure that somehow managed to sneak out of the factories and all the way to release without anyone being the wiser! The Toy Anxiety exclusive Compound Hulk figure that came out during the summer has a new and totally unexpected brother–a far more limited Metallic Compound Hulk Funko POP! Vinyls figure, limited to just 500 pieces produced!
I’m entirely thrilled about this release, as I already purchased the regular version of the Funko Compound Hulk figure specifically to fill the #39 spot in my Funko Marvel POP! Vinyls collection not that long ago. Even so, this Metallic Compound Hulk vinyl bobble-head figure looks a lot better than the regular edition, so I may end up buying him in addition to the plain Compound Hulk I wasn’t crazy about in the first place but already bought. Sigh.
The Toy Anxiety exclusive Funko POP! Vinyls Metallic Compound Hulk figure has now been released at the brick and mortar Toy Anxiety stores. A limited quantity of the Compound Hulk Metallic exclusive figure have been made available via ebay, but they are quickly selling out and I seriously anticipate that they’ll be totally sold out within the next day.
What do you think of the Marvel Funko Metallic Compound Hulk, Marvel fans? A must for your Marvel vinyl collections, or a great, big “whatever”?
