‘WandaVision’s’ Comic-Accurate Halloween Costumes Get Immortalized by Funko Pop

Spooktacular news for fans who couldn’t get enough of the costumes on display in WandaVision’s sixth episode, “All-New Halloween Spooktacular” – Wanda, Pietro, Vision, Tommy and Billy’s homemade comic book fashions will soon be getting the Funko Pop treatment. The all-new additions to the lineup of WandaVision Pops was announced on Funko’s official Twitter account on Monday, with the figures themselves available in March.

Halloween hit Westview, New Jersey in the most recent episode of Disney+’s WandaVision, bringing colorful looks reminiscent of the character’s Marvel Comics origins. In fact, as ScreenRant first pointed out, the show’s star Elizabeth Olsen (Avengers: Age of Ultron, Avengers: Infinity War) fought to include these comic-accurate costumes in WandaVision, as she’s a big of fan of the series’ source material. The Halloween looks on display in episode sic were an undeniable hit with Marvel Cinematic Universe fans, who can now own the Funko Pop versions.

According to ScreenRant, these episode-specific figures are apart of an entire line of WandaVision Pops that show’s fans can get their hands on, however the inclusion of Pietro Maximoff in this set delayed Funko’s announcement. “Toy reveals have previously given away some Marvel plot points,” ScreenRant mentions “it’s good to know that didn’t happen for WandaVision.”

Bleeding Cool proclaimed that Evan Peter’s (X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse) jaw-dropping visit to Westview as a re-cast Pietro Maximoff practically demanded a commemoration in Funko Pop-form. The Quicksilver Funko Pop, along with the others in the lineup, will include Halloween-specific props that reference the episode “All-New Halloween Spooktacular”. The character can be seen carrying the water balloon and shaving cream he used to terrorize the citizens of Westview, giving them more of a trick than a treat.

Tommy and Billy, the nephews Uncle Pietro enlisted into his Halloween antics, are likewise getting the Funko Pop treatment. Wanda and Vision’s sons can be seen donning their Halloween costumes in the new figures revealed by Funko Pop on Twitter today.

Though Bleeding Cool expects these newest WandaVision Pops will fly off the shelves, they also have suggestions for other WandaVision collectibles they’d love to see. As one of episode six’s most haunting moments came when Paul Bettany’s (Avengers: Infinity War, A Knight’s Tale) Vision confronted Kathryn Hahn’s (Mrs. Fletcher, Transparent) Agnes about Westview’s secrets, an Agnes Funko Pop would certainly complete Westview’s Halloween-themed line-up. Agnes’ classic witch costume lent credence to the popular fan theory that she is secretly the witch and Wanda Maximoff mentor, Agatha Harkness.

Kat Dennings (Thor, Two Broke Girls) and Randall Park’s (Ant-Man and the Wasp, Fresh Off the Boat) reprisals of their MCU characters Darcy Lewis and Jimmy Woo has been such a winning dynamic among WandaVision fans that a spin-off of the two characters has already been demanded online. It comes as no surprise then that Bleeding Cool suggests that Funko Pops be made of the two rogue S.W.O.R.D agents and their unofficial leader Monica Rambeau, played by Teyonah Parris (Dear White People, If Beale Street Could Talk).

As these most recent WandaVision Funko Pops were withheld due to spoiler related content, it’s possible that Funko might have more in store for fans of the Disney+ series as the rest of the season unfolds. Fans can tune back into Westview this Friday on Disney+, but will have to wait until March to get their hands on the Funko Pops from last Friday’s “All-New Halloween Spooktacular”.
