SDCC 2023: The best exclusive merch from this year's San Diego Comic

Your wallet might not thank you for taking a look at this guide to the best merchandise at Comic-Con International: San Diego

If it’s San Diego Comic-Con time, then it’s time for companies to roll out all manner of exclusive merchandise to lure, fascinate and ultimately be purchased by eager con attendees. After a few years of pandemic-related caution, the exclusive merch game is back in full effect for 2023’s San Diego Comic-Con, and Popverse has a guide to what’s available, and from whom. No matter what you’re looking for, there’s a lot to be found, as you can see below.

A note, briefly, on our methodology: We’re only listing actual “exclusives” — which is to say, Funkos and other merchandise that will be debuted at the show but also available online, or at other outlets after the show don’t count. This is also not an exhaustive list, because there are a lot of things that will be available at the show and sell out, and to list everything would be almost impossible. (Especially because not everything that will be available at the show has been announced in advance.) We will, however, be updating the list as new announcements are made.

With that said: here are many, many things that you can spend your money on at SDCC 2023. You’re welcome; we’ll pass on our condolences to your bank balance.
