The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles originated in black and white comics in the early 1980s, and this August they come to life as an action figure 4-pack of Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael in classic black & white designs. On sale at your local comic shop exclusively for FCBD, and limited to only 3,600 pieces, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Elite Series Black & White 4-Pack is a set that Turtles collectors won’t want to miss!

Based on the popular Real American Hero designs, this PREVIEWS Exclusive G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero Minimates Box Set (APR210053; SRP $29.99) from Diamond Select Toys includes Snake Eyes, Scarlett, Storm Shadow, and Cobra Commander. Each 2-inch Minimates mini-figure comes packaged in a full-color blister card and features 14 points of articulation and includes interchangeable parts and accessories.

Three years after its release, Sony’s animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse continues to captivate audiences and fans. Mondo Tees celebrates the animated film with a PREVIEWS Exclusive Spider-Man: Spider-Verse 4-Piece Enamel Pin Set (APR210085; SRP $40.00) available exclusively at your local comic shop for FCBD and limited to only 3,000 pieces.

Like the classic Mighty Morphin Power Rangers figures of the 1990s, Lineage Studios’ special PREVIEWS Exclusive Power Rangers: Auto-Morphin Green Ranger Pin (APR210084; SRP $25.00), features the beloved “auto-morphin” spring-power action. This unique pin converts from the Green Ranger to Tommy, his civilian identity, with the press of a finger and is limited to only 2,000 pieces. The only place for Power Rangers fans to get this one-of-a-kind pin is at local comic shops on FCBD. Each pin features a signature by Jason David Frank, the actor who so memorably portrayed the Green Ranger in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

The PREVIEWS Exclusive Spider-Man HeroClix Figure (MAR210030) from WizKids/NECA features a brand-new costume for Spidey. This FCBD 2021 promotional item includes an exclusive HeroClix figure and character card in a polybag with a hangtag.
