Target Funko Fridays are officially back for 2025, and collectors know what that means – five straight weeks of exclusive Funko Pop! reveals, all available only through Target.
What’s New: Target Funko Fridays 2025
Running from October 17 through November 14, this annual event gives fans the chance to grab limited Target Exclusives before they disappear.
Each Friday, new exclusive Funko Pop! vinyl figures are unveiled online at Target.com. Collectors can pre-order them immediately, but stock is always limited and capped at two units per item per order.
For dedicated Pop! hunters, this weekly event has become one of the most anticipated traditions of the year – combining excitement, exclusivity, and the thrill of collecting.
Funko Fridays at Target highlight special releases across multiple franchises, often featuring updated sculpts, accessories, and exclusive packaging that set them apart from standard retail editions. Whether you’re a casual collector or a serious completist, these exclusives are a must-have for your shelves.
About Target Funko Fridays
Target Funko Fridays began as a limited promotional event but quickly grew into an annual fan-favorite.
Each fall, Funko collaborates with Target to roll out brand-new figures tied to popular franchises such as Stranger Things, Marvel, Star Wars, Disney, and more. The reveals happen every Friday morning, giving collectors a fresh wave of excitement heading into the weekend.
What makes this series so appealing is the combination of exclusivity and variety. The lineup usually spans across several fandoms, appealing to different segments of the Funko community.
This year’s lineup continues that tradition with weekly reveals from mid-October through mid-November. Fans can expect surprises, themed sets, and possibly some unexpected returns from past waves.
New Target Funko Friday Exclusives
The first wave of 2025 Target Funko Friday Exclusives kicked off on October 17 with two brand-new figures from the hit Netflix series Stranger Things.
The first exclusive figure is Dustin Henderson (with Flashlight), capturing one of the show’s most beloved characters in full “adventure mode.” This new Pop! features Dustin holding his flashlight, ready to face the mysterious threats of Hawkins, Indiana. The detail in his outfit and expression perfectly reflects the spirit of the Stranger Things universe.
Joining him is Jonathan Byers (with Flashlight), another fan-favorite character whose quieter, determined nature is brought to life through this exclusive sculpt. Jonathan’s Pop! also includes the iconic flashlight accessory, tying both figures together as part of a connected Stranger Things moment.
These figures mark the first releases of the 2025 Target Funko Fridays lineup. Expect more reveals each Friday through November 14, with additional exclusives spanning multiple series and genres.
Pre-order Target Funko Friday Exclusives
Collectors can pre-order the new Dustin Henderson (with Flashlight) and Jonathan Byers (with Flashlight) Funko Pop! vinyl figures right now, exclusively through Target’s official website.
Availability is limited, and with only two units allowed per order, early pre-orders are strongly recommended. Target’s Funko Friday drops tend to sell out quickly, especially when popular franchises like Stranger Things are involved.
To stay updated, visit Target’s dedicated Funko Friday page every Friday morning at 8am CT for the latest reveals and live pre-order links.
