News Post: Five Nights at Freddy's Mystery Minis - Series 10

(Updated post Apr. 21st, 2023)

The latest series of FNaF Mystery Minis has been revealed! They have left us all confused, but I think overall happy. That is how I feel at least. Funko's 2023 Funko Fair showed these off on January 18th, 2023 along with the rest of the Five Nights at Freddy's: Balloon Circus wave:

Here are my thoughts below:

Wow! I am really impressed with all of them! I re-organized and editted the promotional image to see who is all included in this wave. According to the description, we have (from left to right): Balloon Freddy, Balloon Bonnie, Balloon Chica, Balloon Foxy, (next row) Circus Freddy, Circus Bonnie, Circus Chica, Circus Foxy, (next row) White Balloon Freddy, and six variants of the figures above. It also isn't clear if White Balloon Freddy is a seperate character from Balloon Freddy or if it is just a variant for the line. Three of the variants (Glow-in-the-Dark (GitD) Balloon Bonnie, Transclucent Balloon Chica, and Gold Circus Freddy) are from the regular case, while the other three variants (Red Balloon Foxy, Transclucent Circus Bonnie, and GitD Circus Chica) are from the Walmart exclusive case.

First impresions are that I love them! They all look really good and adorable! The detailing and aesthetics are impressive since they show off just how tiny and fun this toy line can be. I don't like the 3 recolors (as usual), but I'll get over it. I would have strongly prefered they get replaced by characters we haven't got before. I also wish Balloon Bonnie wasn't a GitD figure, but if its just the eyelids I guess I'm okay with that. The renders in the promotional images don't always represent the final product, so we'll have to wait and see what they look like in person.

My prediction post for this series was waaay off! Not a single guess was correct.. don't take me to the casinos! Anyways, what happened is these are characters based on characters from Five Nights at Freddy's: Balloon Circus, not Security Breach. I guess we'll get another wave of Security Breach later on, maybe with the Ruin DLC? I really want Sun, Moon, DJ Music Man, Burntrap, the Shattered animatronics, etc. (just like my prediction post). Fingers crossed!

You might think, 'Tiny Toy Shelf, what is Balloon Circus'? That's a good question. I wish I had the answer too, haha! We are currently being left in the dark with where these characters are from, and what is 'Balloon Circus'. All we know is the description implies its a game of some sort. Is it a new side game? DLC for Security Breach? Or something else? Guess we'll find out soon, and hopefully have these new Mystery Mini toys alongside the news!

Thanks again! See you soon!
