An Exclusive LEGO Mini Figure of Barb from “Stranger Things” Will Be Available at Comic Con!
One of the all-time coolest sets was just released by LEGO, a small scale replica of the Byers house from “Stranger Things” that can actually be flipped Upside Down. The set recreates key moments from the first season and also includes mini figures of the characters. But one character who is notably absent from the set is Barb, who was killed off in season one.
But have no fear, because an official Barb mini fig has been created!
Announced by the LEGO Group today, the Barb mini fig will be available excursively at San Diego Comic Con next week, and she’ll come housed in her own special packaging.
In the meantime, be sure to grab the Byers House set and start building today!
We found her! 🥳 Fan-favorite Barb is the LEGO Netflix #SDCC2019 Exclusive Minifigure! #LEGOSDCC #SDCC #WheresBarb @NXOnNetflix @Stranger_Things @Comic_Con pic.twitter.com/RTEO5JDIwN

Michael Myers, Oogie Boogie, Krampus, and Universal Monsters Join Mattel’s Upcoming Monster High Lineup
In skelebration of this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Mattel has unveiled brand-new Monster High Skullector drops set to arrive over the coming months that include Halloween II‘s Michael Myers, The Nightmare Before Christmas‘s Oogie Boogie, Krampus, and more.
The new arrivals begin today, with a limited drop of Universal Monsters Skullector dolls—featuring Frankenstein’s Monster, The Mummy, and Dracula—available exclusively on Walmart.com for $44 each. If you miss it, don’t worry: the trio arrives in retail stores and rolls out internationally on September 1.
With the Halloween season just around the corner, Monster High is slashing into the spirit with a new Michael Myers doll inspired by Halloween II. Michael Myers’s Monster High makeover is a nod to his hospital showdown with Laurie, complete with a red glitter spattered jumpsuit and tons of spine-chilling Easter egg accessories fans of the film will find totally to die for. Look for this slay queen to launch on August 7.
All Hallows’ Eve brings a holiday treat for fans of Tim Burton and director Henry Selick’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. The burlap sack baddie of Halloween Town gets a Monster High makeover on October 30, featuring neon green fashion with black patchwork-like stitches and a whole lot of buggy details.
The holiday horrors continue with the December 3 launch of a Monster High doll inspired by 2015’s Krampus movie. A deep red velveteen jacket, extra-long chains add eerie movement, and black knee-high boots recreate Krampus’ cloven hooves. You’ll wind up on the naughty list in style with this one.
All upcoming releases are listed on the Mattel Creations website, where fans can keep track of the releases.
