Five Nights at Freddy's Mystery Minis - Series 7 - Introduction

Funko announced a new series off the heels of Pizzeria Simulator in July 2019. It felt like we just got Pizzeria Simulator, and to our surprise there was more! Not quite what we expected though, as this series was simply a glow variant of figures in the Pizzeria Simulator series.

It consisted of 12 from the Pizzeria Simulator figures in the normal Retail release (no exclusives). They even used the same rarities from that series too. There were no store exclusives for the series. They were slightly less easily available than the Pizzeria Simulator wave was, at least based on my personal experience. I rarely saw these in stores in a case of 12. If memory serves, I only saw them at Gamestop, Walmart, Barnes & Nobles, and maybe Target. I'm sure others have different experiences and it could have just been my area. Regardless, my point is I remember not seeing as many of these out there compared to the first Glow variant series.

Below are some promotional images of the series from Funko directly and online retailers (refer to [x] for image source, references posted at bottom of page).

Five Nights at Freddy's Mystery Minis - Series 6 - Review (Part 2), Conclusion

(If you haven't already, feel free to check out the Introduction Post and Part 1 Review Post)

This is a continuation of the the first series of the FNaF Pizzeria Simulator line of mystery minis. We reviewed the first 10 of the 18 figures in the first part, so lets get into the last 8 figures in this part!



Character: El Chip
Appearance: FFPS
Rarity: 1/12 (Retail Only)

I'm very happy they made El Chip as a Mystery Mini. His inclusion into the series was smart considering that he is a homage to Chipper from "Chipper & Sons" which ignited this series. I think this mini is really well detailed for adding his tail, his lute guitar, and sombrero. The yellow pins on his hate are off-center, which is actually accurate to the in game design. Very nice catch Funko! They nailed it!
