New York Comic Con (NYCC) kicks off next week with four fun-filled days of fandom mayhem, and The Pop Insider is ready to “wow” with a booth that’s bigger and badder than ever before.
Roll up to Booth No. 1829 all four days of the show, because we have new exclusives, giveaways, and more going on every single day. And before you stop, drop, and roll into all the fun, make sure you grab a copy of our Holiday Gift Guide, which is filled with tons of officially licensed merch that will make everyone’s season merry, bright, and extremely nerdy (you are welcome).
Read on to learn more about everything that’s in store!
SHOP
Our partners are bringing the cool factor to NYCC — especially for the weekenders. On Saturday and Sunday, guests can flock to The Pop Insider’s booth to snag an NYCC exclusive Deddy Bear and get exclusive access to a brand new EVANGELION timepiece from Casio before anyone else.

YUME SMART MACHINES
MSRP: $12.99-24.99
Get the drop on the hottest new collectibles — literally! YuMe Toys is debuting an all-new, interactive way to shop its mystery exclusives: the Smart Machine. This interactive retail experience dispenses YuMe’s must-have surprise boxes, from Sanrio plushies and vinyl figures to Grogu bobbleheads and Spider-Man dioramas. And the best part? Every pull is a winner! The machines are making their debut at NYCC, with seven full collectible series fans can’t find anywhere else.

DEDDY BEARS x LIQUID DEATH LIMITED-EDITION MURDER BEAR*
MSRP: $29.99
This officially licensed plush features a stitched X-mouth, a fierce fanged grin, printed “tattoos” on both arms, and a plush Liquid Death can clutched in its paws, all packaged inside Deddy Bears’ iconic coffin box. It comes complete with an exclusive Roblox badge unlock, an AR collectible card, and a death certificate with a complete backstory on the character.
*SATURDAY AND SUNDAY ONLY*

CASIO x EVANGELION LIMITED-EDITION COLLAB (GA110EVA-7A)**
MSRP: $280
This special edition timepiece celebrates the 30th anniversary of Neon Genesis Evangelion. EVA Unit-01, the central figure of the series, appears throughout the design: its horned headgear on the short band, its face on the bezel, and its right arm gripping the Spear of Longinus — just before the throw — extending from the lower bezel to the long band. Casio’s advanced surface finishing techniques faithfully reproduce Yamashita’s detailed artwork. The watch is available exclusively at NYCC ahead of the Casio pre-sale beginning Oct. 13, and product release on Oct. 17.
**SATURDAY AND SUNDAY ONLY**
