Disney Store will debut its limited edition Sparky-Saurus vinyl figure, inspired by the upcoming Tim Burton film from Disney, Frankenweenie, in the Funko booth (#4829) at Comic-Con International 2012 in San Diego, California. Inspired by the unique aesthetic of the stop-motion black and white film, Sparky-Saurus is attached to a base that looks like the homemade movie set constructed in a scene from the film. Only 1,000 Sparky-Saurus vinyl figures will be available at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC). Also at Comic-Con, a preview of Disney Store’s fall assortment of Frankenweenie merchandise will be on display at Walt Disney Studio’s Art of Frankenweenie booth (#3635).
Disney Store also announced that its new snack food-inspired Vinylmation series, So Tasty, will release at the Funko booth at SDCC. The So Tasty series is the first Disney Store-designed Vinylmation series ever sold at Comic-Con. An extension of the first So Tasty series, which launched at Disney Store in April 2012, the So Tasty Comic-Con series features eight scented vinyl figures that look and smell like everyone’s favorite snack foods. The series features flavors like orange soda, pizza, caramel apple and cotton candy, and two of the eight figures in the series will be released each day, from Thursday to Sunday at the convention. To thank fans, Disney Store will give away limited edition So Tasty-themed paper chef hats throughout Comic-Con weekend (supplies are limited).
“With Disney POP! Vinyls, the limited edition Frankenweenie exclusive and Vinylmation figures, available to the Comic-Con guest for the first time with the So Tasty series, Disney Store and Funko have come together to provide truly unique Disney collectibles,” said John Balen, Director, Merchandise-Hardlines at Disney Store. “We have something special for every Comic-Con guest to collect and enjoy.”
