As Stranger Things gears up for its fifth and final season, fans are eagerly awaiting the continuation and conclusion of the story that has become a cultural phenomenon.
The final chapter is currently in production, with the cast and crew hard at work to bring the epic saga of Hawkins and the Upside Down to a close.
The journey to this point has been a long one, filled with twists and turns both on-screen and off. The show’s production faced significant delays due to last year’s industry-wide strike, but this has done little to dampen the enthusiasm of its dedicated fanbase. The excitement surrounding Season 5 is growing, as viewers eagerly speculate about the fates of their favorite characters and the ultimate showdown with the series’ supernatural antagonists.
Stranger Things has always thrived on its ability to blend nostalgia with cutting-edge storytelling. Each season has introduced new horrors while delving deeper into the lore of the Upside Down and its impact on the small town of Hawkins, Indiana. Season 4 ended on a cliffhanger, with the barriers between our world and the Upside Down broken, promising an epic and climactic battle in the final season.
The newest batch of Stranger Things Funko Pops includes five figures, each capturing iconic moments and characters from Seasons 3 and 4. For Season 3, Funko has recreated Robin and Steve in their charming Scoops Ahoy uniforms, a nod to one of the most memorable and light-hearted settings in the series. The collection also features a super-sized six-inch Pop of the fearsome Demogorgon, decked out in the vibrant colors of the Scoops Ahoy ice cream shop, adding a playful twist to the otherwise terrifying creature.
From Season 4, fans can look forward to a Pop of Murray, equipped with his flamethrower, ready to battle the supernatural forces threatening Hawkins. Additionally, there is a Pop Moment featuring Max in one of the most emotional scenes of the season. This figure depicts Max levitating in the graveyard, attempting to fend off Vecna’s attack while “Running Up That Hill” by Kate Bush plays in the background. This scene has become one of the most iconic moments in the series, symbolizing the resilience and strength of the young characters as they face unimaginable horrors.
The pops are set to be released in July.
