Licensed-Film Blind Box Series from Pop Mart (June Releases)
Pop Mart has recently announced a trio of licensed Feature Film-blind box series, for which I've since featured on my dedicated Film-blog individually, with a "inroductory summary" here on TOYSREVIL in a single post. Let's take a closer look, shall we?
Introducing "MINIONS HOLIDAY": since launched and available online here on their Aliexpress e-store (in select countries), so do check in with your fav retailer(s) for availability of these blind boxed figures where you are. Promotional images (used in above video) viewable HERE on POPCORNX.
12 basic character figures to collect, with a 13th "Small Hidden" figure ("TOM") and a "Big Hidden", whereby a exchange card could be used to redeem the "Evil Minion".
The "HARRY POTTER" blind box series features the primary characters in a "chibi"-style, and they look ADORABLE - even Lord Voldemort! Can you recognise the characters portrayed here? The aesthetic reminds me of Banpresto's "Q Posket", which I personally adore (even tho I own none of them :p) ... I've a feeling these'll be nigh desired by fans - and especially since this set'll only be available in China, with a "June 14/2020"!
Availability for these outside of China is currently pending (no doubt due to licensing), so you might want to stay tuned for updates! Meanwhile, still images (used in above video) can be viewed HERE on POPCORNX!
"Nezha is a Chinese superhero. He was born with superhuman strength and braveness beyond his short age! In this series, Nezha meets traditional western Fairy Tales!""NEZHA FAIRY TALE TOUR" features the Chinese fabled character (based on the wildly successful animated NE ZHA feature film from China circa 2019) crossing over with traditional western Fairy Tales, for a very interesting mash-up of fictional tales of wonder! Although at the end he is virtually indistinguishable from the original character, IMHO. Head to POPCORNX to view still images (used in above video).
Scheduled for a worldwide launch & release on June 16, 2020, do check in with your fav retailer(s) for prices and availability!
I'll leave this blogpost with a trailer to the animated film, while I contemplate a weekend viewing of this...!
