Funko Unveils "Toy Story 5" Collection Featuring Fan Favorites and Newcomers
In anticipation of the cinematic release of "Toy Story 5" on June 19, 2026, collectible powerhouse Funko has announced an exciting new series of its signature Pop! figurines and blind box Mystery Mini Packs. These items are available for pre-order now on Amazon, with a scheduled release date of June 10, 2026, preceding the film's debut by just over a week.
The collection showcases refreshed designs for beloved characters from the Toy Story universe, including the courageous cowboy Woody, the valiant space ranger Buzz Lightyear, and the spirited cowgirl Jessie. Each Pop! figure stands approximately 3.75 inches tall and comes encased in a display-friendly window-pane box, making them ideal for collectors.
Beyond the familiar faces, the new line introduces characters central to the "Toy Story 5" narrative. Fans can look forward to the enigmatic Lilypad, a smart tablet envisioned as a frog, and Smarty Pants, an electronic potty-training toy voiced by Conan O'Brien. Jessie's loyal equine companion, Bullseye, also makes a return in a larger, premium Pop! figure, mounted on a display stand.
Adding an exciting twist, Funko is launching "Toy Story 5" Mystery Mini Packs. Following the popular blind box trend, each pack contains one randomly selected 3.4-inch figure from a total of 12 unique designs. Among these are rare finds such as Sticky Hand and Blaze's pet pig, as well as super rare chase figures of Forky and Karen Beverly (affectionately known as "Knifey"), offering collectors the thrill of discovery.
This comprehensive collection, developed through an official licensing agreement, allows fans to deepen their connection with the Toy Story saga and acquire tangible pieces of the movie's magic, celebrating both the legacy and the future of the cherished animated film franchise.
The release of these new collectibles from Funko highlights the enduring popularity of the "Toy Story" franchise and its ability to continually innovate. The blend of familiar characters with intriguing new additions, coupled with the interactive element of blind box collecting, speaks to a savvy marketing strategy that appeals to both long-time fans and new audiences. It also underscores the growing trend of media tie-ins providing immersive fan experiences beyond the screen, transforming movie watching into a more interactive and collectible hobby. As the cinematic universe expands, so too does the opportunity for creative merchandise that celebrates storytelling in playful, tangible forms.
