Just blocks away from the convention center that will be hosting San Diego Comic Con, FYE opened the doors to a Comic Con pop-up shop that's filled with limited-edition and exclusive products. On-site, fans will be able to find new collaborations with [Funko](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popsies), Adult Swim, [Nickelodeon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sprayground-pop-up), Garbage Pail Kids and much more. Some of the convention exclusives that will be available include special convention t-shirts featuring favorite characters, beauty products and even a Child's Play Cereal for fans of the 2019 American horror film.

As well as offering plenty of merchandise for fans, the Comic Con pop-up also shares unique experiences, signings and meet-and-greets. While those with a sweet tooth will enjoy Hi-Chew taste test sampling, there will also be a Game of Thrones replica weapons display for fans of the recently concluded [HBO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vodafone-spain) show.
