Screen Rant has an exclusive look at the new Black Light Stranger Things Funko Pops. The Netflix series began in 2016 and was an immediate success with its perfect mix of 80s nostalgia, sci-fi, and mystery. The show will be returning for its fourth season in 2022 and has been almost confirmed for a season 5 by the show's star David Harbour and creators, the Duffer Brothers.
Season 3 of Stranger Things premiered in the summer of 2019. It saw the opening of a new mall in Hawkins and lots of strange behavior from the residents of the town. Despite having closed the portal to the Upside Down, Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) and her friends, Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin), Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo), Will (Noah Schnapp), and Max (Sadie Sink) find that they are still in danger. The season culminated in the group battling against the Mind Flayer at the newly opened Starcourt Mall with Detective Jim Hopper (Harbour) sacrificing himself to save Hawkins.
Check out the exclusive images of the Black Light Stranger Things Funko Pops. The bright neon colors of the Pops are well suited for the show's 80s aesthetic and make the Funkos glow when placed under a black light. The black light Funko Pops include Eleven in her Starcourt Mall jumpsuit, Dustin in his trusty Camp Nowhere hat, and the Demogorgon. See the images below!
Pre-orders for the Black Light Stranger Things Funko Pops will start on Friday, September 17 at 8 AM PST/ 11 AM EST. All three Funko Pops will be sold exclusively at Target. Save the pre-order link here!
This new collection of Stranger Things Funko Pops joins previous waves of figures from past seasons. Besides the kids in their traditional Starcourt Mall outfits, there have been Funkos featuring the characters in their Halloween costumes, one of Eleven with her beloved Eggo Waffles from season 1, and of course, everyone's favorite babysitter Steve (Joe Keery). These black light Funkos are a fun addition to any fan's collection.
Like Stranger Things, Funko is a pop culture behemoth, only growing in popularity over the years. Collectors are always looking for the newest Pops and variants and some tend to sell out very quickly. The company will even have a balloon in this year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade further proving their staying power.
The Black Light Stranger Things Funko Pops are available for pre-order on Friday, September 17 at 8 AM PST/ 11 AM EST.
