Walmart Collector Con returns on October 8, 2026, at 10:00 AM ET, landing on the same morning as the first day of New York Comic Con. That could make for an incredibly busy morning for collectors, especially with new reveals potentially coming out of NYCC while Walmart is opening preorders for its latest exclusives and collectibles.
Walmart has not revealed the Collector Con lineup yet, but previous events have been previewed ahead of the sale, so I expect we will see at least some of the exclusives, preorders, and other collectibles before everything goes live. We’ll be watching closely as we get closer to October 8 and will cover anything interesting as soon as it surfaces.
There are already a few figures I’m particularly interested in seeing show up as one of them was supposed to gp up for preorder during the last Walmart Collector Con. At the top of my list are Masterverse Vintage Collection Evil-Lyn and Wun-Dar. Both figures have had unusual releases, so I’m hoping Collector Con finally gives collectors a straightforward opportunity to order them.
I’m also keeping a close eye on the G.I. Joe Classified Series DIRE Hawk. We originally discovered DIRE Hawk when the unannounced figure unexpectedly started showing up at Walmart stores, making this one of the stranger G.I. Joe Classified releases we’ve covered recently. Hopefully, Walmart Collector Con brings a wider online preorder and gives everyone who has not been lucky enough to find him on a Walmart shelf a chance to order one when he, by chance, went up for preorder.
Of course, those are just the figures already on my radar. We do not know what else Walmart has planned for the event, and there could be plenty of surprises once the full lineup begins to emerge.
For now, consider this an early heads-up to mark October 8 at 10:00 AM ET. With Walmart Collector Con and New York Comic Con kicking off on the same day, I have a feeling we’re going to be pretty busy that morning. We’ll have more coverage as soon as Walmart starts revealing what will be available.
For now, here is the Walmart Collector Con landing page!
