The Upside Down continues its pervasive influence, not just on the residents of Hawkins, Indiana, but also on the world of collectibles. Funko, known for its extensive range of Pop! figures, is set to introduce two new additions inspired by the terrifying Demogorgon from Stranger Things, offering fans fresh ways to celebrate the popular Netflix phenomenon.
Leading the new wave of collectibles is an impressive 10-inch Jumbo Demogorgon Pop! figure. This larger-than-life rendition of the creature, which has been a staple of the series since its debut in 2016, is slated for release in October 2026. It promises to be a standout piece for any collector's display, capturing the monstrous essence of the interdimensional predator.
Accompanying the Jumbo Demogorgon is a more narrative-driven two-pack featuring a memorable, albeit unfortunate, encounter from the series. This set recreates the tense face-off between Karen Wheeler, played by Cara Buono (Mad Men), and a Demogorgon. Both figures in the two-pack are depicted covered in black sludge, poised as if caught in the middle of their dramatic confrontation. The Karen figure stands approximately 4.2 inches tall, while her Demogorgon adversary measures around 5.4 inches.
For those eager to add the Karen & Demogorgon 2-Pack to their collection, Funko has priced the set at $29.99 in the United States and £24 in the U.K. While the Jumbo Demogorgon has a specific October 2026 release window, the two-pack is currently listed as "Coming Soon" on Funko's official store, with an anticipated arrival this fall. This isn't Funko's first foray into creating Demogorgon variants, having released several iterations over the years, including a Rift version and a Premium Demogorgon on Fire.
The announcement comes shortly after the Stranger Things universe saw a recent return to screens with the second season of Stranger Things: Tales From ’85. The animated spin-off, which delves into another adventure set in the winter of 1985 with younger versions of the main cast, officially premiered on Netflix on September 17. These new Funko Pop! releases further solidify the enduring legacy and widespread appeal of the Stranger Things franchise as fans eagerly await more from Hawkins and the Upside Down.
