Fandom is huge and only growing bigger with every Wiki page. It’s infinitely expanding, spinning off, and veering into galaxies far, far away. One way we keep the characters we love (and would follow through every twist or turn of the multiverse) close to our hearts is collecting. We carefully hone our compendiums, celebrating everything great about pop culture past, present, and future.

Over its two-day Collector Con event, Walmart dropped a bunch of fresh merch for us superfans, including exclusives sure to be the crown jewels of collectors anywhere. Here are some Walmart exclusives to get now — or preorder.

Score a limited-edition Carnage

Straight from NYCC, the only way to get the limited-edition Pop! version of Carnage was ordering it online — even if you attended in all your cosplay glory. It’s still available and the box comes with an exclusive 2021 sticker.

Get a Boba Fett bobblehead

Another NYCC shared exclusive from day two was Pop!’s “Boba Fett on Tatooine” bobblehead. Fans had to wait four decades to see the face of this mysterious bounty under his helmet (the big reveal came in season 2 of The Mandalorian), and now you can see it every day.

Expand your t-shirt wardrobe

A cool fan T-shirt is pretty much the perfect attire for every day, from hitting your local bar to layering for sweater weather. This two-pack features vintage-feeling Mandalorian graphics and is 100% cotton — and 100% officially licensed Star Wars apparel.

Go deep into the Marvel universe

Just in time for issue 1 of the Death of Doctor Strange (hot off the presses as of September 22, 2021), this six-inch figurine captures all the details of this neurosurgeon turned sorcerer. Is it really an end, or a beginning?

Lean into your 1990s nostalgia

Regret selling your Power Rangers at that early ‘00s garage sale? On day 1 of Collector Con, Walmart added Hasbro’s retro-style Zord action figures like Ninjakon, complete with packaging inspired by those dwindling days of VHS.

Get ready for the return of The Witcher

You, your dog, and this plush rendering of Geralt of Rivia are all you need to settle in for season 2 starting Dec. 17 (or catching up on season 1). When you squeeze Geralt, actor Henry Cavill’s voice grunts, grumbles, or delivers one of his lines.

Geek out with an authentic Mr. Spock

Where Trekkie and toy history converge, you have the backstory of Mego, a company considered by some the creator of action figures. This original series 14-inch Mr. Spock is autographed by the company’s founder Marty Abrams.

Snap up some cool vintage cars

Designed for collectors at a 1:64 scale (which means they’re 64 times smaller than a real-life car), these mini rides have real rubber tires with white detailing modeled on the actual mag style wheels of race cars and sports cars.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
