Going to HeroesCon on June 30-July 2? Or are you a Captain AmericaTM or character glass collector in the Charlotte, NC area? If so, you might want to pick up the newly-announced show exclusive. Shelton Drum, HeroesCon organizer, and PopFun Merchandising, LLC are proud to introduce a HeroesCon exclusive Captain AmericaTM ‘Toon Tumbler®.
Drum remarked, “This year’s show falls on the 4th of July weekend, so asking PopFun to do a Kirby Cap was a no-brainer! I have personally enjoyed collecting the new tumblers from PopFun and especially loved the classic Marvel releases.” Added Paul Merolle, president of PopFun, “We’re thrilled to be doing a promotion for such a long-running show that has become an institution for collectors, fans, and creators. The fact that Shelton picked this glass as a con exclusive for the holiday weekend show only makes it more exciting.”
The Capt. AmericaTM glass will come in both clear and frosted variations and one will be given away to each of the first 150 pre-registered attendees to walk through the door each morning. In addition, the exclusive ‘Toon Tumbler® will be available for sale throughout the show.
'Toon Tumblers® feature classic comic and animated characters on high-quality, pint glasses. They are available in Diamond’s Previews, at select retailers, comic books shops, and through the Pop Fun website. PopFun will be setting up at HeroesCon, where it will be selling its current releases, taking pre-orders on upcoming products, and previewing prototypes.
