FUNKO POP! SDCC EXCLUSIVES
Shela's picks!
--
A while ago, Funko teased us with clues leading up to the Con. More details about these upcoming releases were leaked this past week-- Not sure about you but I am bursting with happiness right now!
Funko's press release has confirmed the release of four (4) metallic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, three (3) bloodied Walking Dead figurines (Governor; pictured, Prison Guard and Rick Grimes; not pictured), and two (2) Alien vs. Predator figurines (not pictured).
But what am I getting? Well I'm glad you asked! I'll be in line first thing in the morning to pick up my metallic Deadpool and two (2) unmasked Iron Man 3 (Tony Stark and James Rhodes) figurines. What can I say? I'm a Marvel gal through and through. :)

Figurines are priced between $15 & $17. Pick up yours at booth #5343!
