 Hello people of the internet, my name is Johnny, welcome back to yet another FNAF news video and it's not been that long since the last news video but we still have so much to talk about. We've got a whole bunch of merchandise including an entirely brand new wave of products from Funko, a whole bunch of previews for upcoming books, even our first glimpse at the runtime for this year's FNAF film. So if you're excited for all the news scroll down and subscribe to the channel to stay up to date with everything FNAF. Just kick this video off by taking a look at some upcoming books and one that I'm super excited for is the official FNAF cookbook coming out in October. Recently Scholastic held yet another trade parade where they showed off a whole bunch of upcoming books and previews for those books and we got a whole bunch of FNAF news. Including as you can see this brand new sneak peek at the official cookbook showing off circus baby's cheesy garlic bread, as well as the easy plex pizza sauce featuring what many people have pointed out to be a bootleg glam rock Freddy figure which I think is absolutely hilarious. I do hope they go back and change that page a bit so it's not in there but it's funny for this preview. Like I said this cookbook comes out in October the 24th and it's got over 40 recipes. Another book featured in the trade parade was this third volume of the Fazbear Fred's graphic novel collection. You may notice the cover has received a slight tweak, the red text has now turned to orange. Unfortunately the preview we got for this book is pretty low resolution so you might have to squint a bit to make out the details. But as you can tell from the last panel this is a preview for Bunny Cole, one of the stories included in this collection. Alongside the stories of Step Closer as well as Hide and Seek this book is going to be coming out on the 5th of September. Starting off the merchandise segment we got Matt Pat teasing a few brand new FNAF X game theory wear products. In one of his recent GT Live livestreams he showed off a reversible fleece jacket. On one side you've got this fuzzy material and a few tears in the fur representing the endoskeleton underneath a robot suit. And if you flip the jacket inside out you get something similar to what an employee would wear at Fredbear's family diner all decked out in purple with the Fredbear's tag on the front. You may have seen in this image yet another Music Man t-shirt. Of course it's Matt Pat, he's gotta throw Music Man in there somewhere. Matt also mentioned they have a whole bunch of Chica attire. And all these products are presumably going to be coming out around October-ish. That's what Matt Pat said. Moving on now to Figpin it's a company that just got the license to make FNAF products and we've already gotten a sneak peek at their Series 1 collectible pins. Series 1 is going to be entirely based on security breach characters. Yeah Freddy, Roxanne, Monty, Vanessa, the Floorbot, Shattered Chica, the Sewerbot as well as traditional Glamrock Chica. Also on the box we can see pins for Vanny as well as another Vanny pin. Looks kinda like a neon sign, I'd imagine that one's gonna be pretty rare. And if you couldn't tell already these are mystery boxes so what pin you're gonna get you're not gonna know. I'd love to know what are your thoughts on these pins from Figpin. What other games do you want to see them make with this FNAF license? Moving on now to U2's we got a whole bunch of details on their upcoming FNAF waves because Austin in the U2's Discord server announced their current plan with the Help Wanted wave, which if you've forgotten will include the Dreadbear figure, Glitchtrap figure, Shadow Mangle as well as Grim Foxy. That is still set for an end of year release. Unfortunately though that does mean the withered figures have been delayed to next year. Austin also reconfirming they are working on a wave of figures for the Ruin DLC for Security Breach. Based on the warning of his message it seems like they're also gonna try and get the Ruin wave out this year though that I'm not entirely sure on. And of course I'd love to know what U2's figures do you want to see from the Ruin DLC. Do you want to see new characters like the Mimic or Cassie? Or maybe remixes on the old figures like Headless Freddy could be interesting. Sticking with U2's we got a teaser for their upcoming Ignited Foxy Plushy. Ignited Foxy of course being a character from the Joy of Creation, a game apart of the Fazbear Fanverse Collection. And Austin did confirm that we will be getting six. You heard that right, six total plushies in this Fanverse Plushy wave, two from each of the game. Previously the Fanverse games that U2's has worked with is the Pop-Go series, the Five Nights at Candy series as well as the Joy of Creation. In fact, Kane Carter supplied a better look at the Ignited Foxy Plushy over on his Twitter and he definitely looks better up close. I'm very curious to see how this Fanverse Plushy wave is going to go because we do know U2's is also working on a sitting Pop-Go's plushy that I would assume would also release with this wave. So maybe for each game we'll be getting one sitting plushy as well as one cheapy plushy. I'm curious to know what Fanverse characters do you want to see get made into a plushy. I'm still holding out hope that we get that sitting candy. Because I mean, come on U2's, he's already in the game. It'd be a perfect product to make. Speaking of plushies, Hex just released their second wave of cuddly plushies. These are the variants of the Hex plushies that are sitting. They don't have any magnets in them and included in Wave 2 is Spring Bonnie and Fredbear. Both of them go for about $35 though. If you do get the bundle with both of them included, you get free shipping. And Docko did mention on Twitter the feedback they've gotten from these launches has been fantastic. And that we should definitely expect more cuddly plushies in the future and I'm sure these guys directly behind me. So it's awkward to move the toys. Most likely it's going to be the next sitting plushy's wave. And now let's move on to Funko because we just got an entirely brand new wave of products from them revealed. You may remember not too long ago, we talked about the leaked holiday wave we'd be getting from them, including pop figures, action figures and plushies. Well, we got two out of the three of those revealed so far. These are what the pop figures look like. So you've got Santa Freddy, Elf Bonnie, Snow Chica, as well as Gingerbread Foxy. Thankfully, these were not just one to one reskins. They actually made brand new molds for the characters. And again, they just look fantastic. Now all the products so far, I don't believe have a release date yet, but they do have pre-orders available and those get fulfilled in September. So it seems like around that September time is when these guys will officially be released. And this goes for the action figures as well as the pops, I believe. And speaking of the action figures, this is what they look like. Santa Freddy in all his glory, Elf Bonnie actually comes with a candy cane accessory. You could see in his pop figure, Snow Chica now has legs, Gingerbread Foxy's got a little candy cane hook and we've also gotten a fifth retail exclusive figure this time of Nutcracker Foxy. And his mold is completely different from anything we've seen from FNAF Funko. And it might look a little weird, but honestly, I kind of love it. Like I said, we will be getting plushies of these characters as well, though those have not been revealed just yet. Hopefully we get to see those guys soon. This news in particular, I'm very, very curious to know what do you guys think about it? Are you a fan of the brand new molds and variants of these iconic characters for the holiday season? You can be picking them up when they come out. And now before we get to talking about the FNAF movie, there was one more topic I thought was really interesting and I really wanted to talk about it. So remember that scholastic trade parade we mentioned at the start of this video? Well, throughout the trade parade in the FNAF section, they had a whole bunch of like fun facts and sales points regarding the FNAF IP. Most of them were just kind of basic, like, you know, there's a new DLC for the latest FNAF game coming out soon. Oh, look at how many views the FNAF series has gained over on YouTube. But there was one point that really stuck out to fans. August 2024 is the 10th anniversary of Five Nights at Freddy's and will be supported with marketing initiatives from Striker Entertainment and game publisher, SteelWolf Studios. Now what marketing initiatives is, we do not know, which is the craziest part about this news. I think as FNAF fans, especially fans who have been with the series from almost the start basically, we're all kind of hoping that they do something big and grand for the 10 year anniversary of FNAF, a decade of FNAF. Striker Entertainment, if you don't know, like it says in the sales point, is the licensing agent for FNAF, so they, you know, hand out all the licensing for things to be able to use the FNAF IP. And SteelWolf, I mean, we all know SteelWolf. But marketing initiatives, what the heck does that mean? It's crazy, because this could be something super simple, like a few anniversary drawings, like we usually get. Like counting down to the 10 year anniversary and it's here and we get a giant, you know, art piece from all the people working on the film and all the FNAF characters. Again, I'm just thinking out loud. It could be something like that or it could be something, you know, like massive like Springtrap and Dead by Daylight or Freddie Fazbear drops into the Fortnite Island. This news is super interesting because marketing initiatives, what the heck does that mean? I'd love to know, what do you want to see for the 10 year anniversary of FNAF? Do you think it's going to be anything big like a game collab? Do you think it's going to be something pretty small just within us FNAF fans community? All right, well now let's cap off this video by talking about the runtime for the official FNAF movie releasing October 27th. Because a few days ago we had Twitter user cryptic HD quality who's a scooper and has been fairly reliable in the past with trailer release dates as well as runtimes for films. Well, they made a tweet saying Five Nights at Freddy's runtime has been updated to approximately three hours. Approximately. A few months ago on my alt, I did say the film had a pretty long runtime but this isn't final. Three hours is of course massively, massively long for a film, especially for a film like Cut, Tim, FNAF and Freddy's. I think what this tweet is implying is currently, right now the studio is looking at a film that is three hours long, though of course I do not think that is going to be the final runtime. I would not be surprised at all if the studio goes to Blumhouse, goes to Scott and say, all right, this is too long of a film. I'm going to need you to cut this down to like two hours, 30 minutes or like two 15. I feel like usually that's kind of the sweet spot for films, because three hours for a FNAF film, you got to think about it. A lot of the FNAF fans probably don't have that long of attention spans, especially the younger fans. For people like me and maybe a few of you out there, that sounds amazing. Three hours of FNAF on the big screen, think about all the lore. But just for general audiences and just based off studio track records, I feel like three hours for a film like this, they're definitely going to want to show in that up. Who knows, maybe for like physical releases and behind the scenes, we can get that extended length for the film, but three hours, I just don't think that's going to be happening, especially because like they said, it's approximately three hours. It's not exactly three hours. So it could be like two hours, 45 or two hours, 50. They did also say it's not final and that I definitely do believe, but I'd love to know your thoughts. Do you want to see a three hour long FNAF movie? Do you think they're going to be sticking with that runtime? All that and more, I'd love to know your thoughts on in the comments down below. Thank you so much for watching another FNAF news video, and I'll see you all on the flip side. Goodbye.
