Walmart Adds Collectibles Section for Pop Culture Toys

Starting the week of Oct. 15, more than 3,500 Walmart stores will have a new “collectibles” section within the entertainment department.

This section will not only feature products from companies such as Funko, McFarlane Toys , and CultureFly, but it will also be the exclusive brick-and-mortar retail home for Loot Crate, the fan subscription box service. Six different boxes will be available to start, including Best of the ’80s, Space Out, Merc with a Mouth, Not of this World, Gaming Treasures, or Gaming Legends. Each retails at $19.88.

The other available merchandise will include exclusive products, including a Funko Pop! chrome Thanos, available in late October. Exclusives from McFarlane Toys will include a line of NBA 2K19 figures and three exclusive EA Sports Madden NFL 19 Ultimate Team figures: Tom Brady, Dak Prescott, and Jason Witten.

CultureFly’s exclusive collector’s boxes will also be back for the holiday season, with themed boxes featuring Harry Potter, Fallout, Rick & Morty, and PlayStation for $19.88 each.
