Kingdom Hearts Series

Hey everyone and welcome to the TENTH! installment of the KHV Weekly News Report!

Sorry this is a litter bit late this week, I got distracted by anime last night xD

As usual, if you're enjoying be sure to let us know down below :)

Today, Funko officially announced the release dates of ALL of their upcoming Kingdom Hearts Funko Pops. While not all of this is new news, some of this is.


First of all, we finally have release dates for the Kingdom Hearts Funko Keychains of King Mickey, Donald, and Goofy, March 2017.

We also found out about that Walmart will be receiving an exclusive Funko Pop, Black and White Pete. This Funko joins the other two exclusives, Royal Guard Goofy (Gamestop) and Royal Guard Donald (Hot Topic).


Strangely enough, Funko lists the rest of the Pops figures as to be released in April--which contradicts reports (and a Gamestop employee that I spoke to when I preordered a few of the Pops) from Gamestop that they will be coming out in March-- March 15th was the exact release date I, personally was told.

Could Gamestop be receiving the Pop figures before anywhere else? While we don't have any more information about the release date discrepancies, we'll be sure to let you know when there are any updates on the Funko Pop figures.

Do you guys plan on picking any of these up? Let us know in the comments down below!

For those of you who watch wrestling, Xavier Woods from the WWE has recently got his hands on 'Kingdom Hearts 2.8 HD Final Chapter Prologue', and was streaming the game earlier today (as evident in the tweet above). Xavier Woods himself is an avid gamer, so while this isn't surprising, it's still nice to see someone from the pro-wrestling world who is a fan of 'Kingdom Hearts'.

Square-Enix's Japanese e-store has released information on a box set set to be released in Japan on April 29th featuring key rings based on the medals from 'Kingdom Heart Unchained χ[chi]'. Priced at 5,770 yen (roughly $51), the medals (shown above) include KH2 Mickey, Organization XIII Roxas, Axel, KH3D Sora, Donald Duck, KH1 Riku, KH1 Cloud, and Shadow Heartless. No word if the box set will be released internationally.

Thanks to @tamale for the tip!

About two months ago, we reported that Square Enix re-released their line of silver charm necklaces on their Japanese store.

Now, according to the SE merchandise twitter, these necklaces can now be found at ARTNIA, the Square Enix official merchandise shop in Japan. If you're currently in Japan, consider stopping by, checking these out, and picking them up!
