I admit it; I know next to nothing about the Guardians of the Galaxy, other than the fact that they’ve got a gun-toting raccoon who has anger issues. (That pretty much seals the deal for me, actually.) Thankfully, Funko is here to help me and those like me get to know the characters better. They’re releasing new vinyl figures in their Pop! Marvel line as well as Wacky Wobblers, all of which will be available by the time their movie hits theaters on August 1st. Because we’ve got a lot of pictures, I’m putting them all after the jump.

Funko Shows Off New Fabrikations
As if you weren’t addicted to Funkos Pop! Vinyl already, now they have to create new cute stuff for you to get addicted to. (Which is why we love Funko so very, very much.) Funko is introducting new Fabrikations, 6-inch soft-sculpted figures. Filled with a dense foam and weighted to be able to stand on a variety of surfaces, these Fabrikations have rotating heads and vinyl accessories. To start off this line, Funko release pictures of Yoda and Boba Fett from Star Wars, Batman and Harley Quinn from DC Comics, and Deadpool from Marvel Comics. These are slated to arrive in June. Check the pics below.

Well, to quote a spinach-eating sailor man, blow me down. Or as I tweeted, Nobody expects 1) the unexpected; 2) the Spanish Inquisition; 3) a new Headmaster figure in 2014. http://t.co/FCDSeLDZfa @BotCon — ASM (@ASMzine) April 3, 2014 I’ve lamented that we weren’t getting Nightbeat as a Headmaster later this year. I’ve wondered if we’d ever get a Headmaster figure again. Looks like BotCon has answered my mostly-unheard request, because lo and behold, they just showed off Decepticon Pirate Scorponok with Headmaster Olin Zarak. Look at him. Look at how glorious he is. LOOK AT THAT HEAD. It’s like it’s

So, although I haven’t talked about the previous two exclusives (but I will soon), I figure that should change with the third reveal for BotCon 2014 – Devcon, the Cybertronian Knight! Some fans have been waiting for a Devcon toy for almost 30 years. We almost had him twice — he was a potential toy for BotCon 2002 (a race car)and if 3H had kept the BotCon license, we might have had him for BotCon 2005 or later (a remold of Energon Slugslinger). They say anticipation makes the heart grow fonder. I don’t know about that, but at least in

Oh, man, oh, man, I am so jealous of those of you going to Emerald City Comic Con. Funko sent over pictures of their exclusive Pop!Vinyl figures that will be sold at the convention.
