THINGS
SPIDER-MAN COLLECTOR'S BOX
(CULTUREFLY)

If you're still depressed about the Sony/MCU Spider-Man
breakup, you can salve that wound with this spiffy collector's
box that includes a Spidey-themed tote bag, two Spider-Man
pins, a notebook and other
goodies. Remember: With
great power comes great
collectibility.

for children, but
their brilliantly
colorful design, the
ingenious monster suit special
effects by Eiji Tsuburaya, the vivid
monster sounds and composer
Akira Ifukube's mythic-sounding
musical scores turn many of them
into rousing entertainment.
Godzilla Raids Again introduced
the "monster mash" idea of pitting
Godzilla against other giant
monsters, although its Godzilla
vs. Anguiras fights are marred by
Tsubaraya and his crew speeding
up the action rather than slowing it
down as they did with the monster
action in the other films. The first
Ghidorah movie begins to veer into
comedy, but you have to love its

countrysidespanning early battle
between Rodan and Godzilla. After
increasingly bizarre '70s outings like
Godzilla vs. Gigan (a parrot-beaked
monster with a buzz-saw in its
stomach) and Godzilla vs. Hedorah
(a monster made of pollution),
1975's Terror of MechaGodzilla
returned the series to its moodier,
more epic roots, with Godzilla
making one of his most impressive
entrances in the series. This set,
loaded with special features
and brilliant, custom artwork,
will be available just in time for
Halloween.

STRANGER
THINGS 3: STEVE
WITH HAT AND ICE
CREAM
(FUNKO POP!)

If this year's Comic-Con cosplay was any indication, the most
popular thing about Stranger Things 3 was hunky but terminally
confused Steve and his Scoops Ahoy ice cream shop uniform.
Now you can own Steve in super-cute Funko POP! form - but
let's just say there better be a Robin figure coming as well.
