UCC Distributing is heading back to San Diego Comic-Con 2026 with another massive lineup of exclusives and collectibles at Booth #5613 — the same prime spot as previous years, located against the back wall and accessible via aisles 1300, 1200, or 1100. If you’re navigating from the entrance, head through Lobby/Hall B1 and look for the staff holding UCC signs and the brand-new giant neon sign atop the booth.
Over the last several years, UCC has become one of the convention’s most consistently crowded booths, thanks to a mix of anime, gaming, horror, television, and pop culture merch that tends to disappear from shelves fast. This year, one of the biggest draws will be the exclusive debut of the new Dungeon Crawler Carl figure line from Playmates Toys, launching exclusively at SDCC through UCC Distributing. Based on Matt Dinniman’s wildly popular sci-fi and fantasy series, the new line is ready to “crawl” its way onto collectors’ shelves.
Now, let’s take a look at this year’s exclusives:
[UPDATE June 4]
Dungeon Crawler Carl fans will have even more to hunt for at UCC’s Booth #5613 this year with a collection of SDCC-debuting collectibles inspired by Matt Dinniman’s bestselling series. Leading the charge are the first wave of action figures, including Carl himself in his signature heart-print boxers and cape, with Princess Donut perched on his shoulder. If we had to guess, we think this may be the actual SDCC exclusive version, as this iteration features battle effects.
There also appears to be a Mongo figure with Princess Donut. Carl’s oversized dinosaur companion gets its own figure (as well as its own shades-sporting Princess Donut to ride atop) — and it even comes with a special poster included with purchase.
Borant also showed off six trading cards, though again, it’s unclear if these will be available for purchase separately, or if these are included with the figures.
[UPDATE May 26]
Up first, Kenny Forman, VP of Sales at Playmates Toys, showed off the first officially licensed collectible figures for Dungeon Crawler Carl, which will be available first exclusively through UCC Distributing at San Diego Comic-Con, before heading to select retailers later this year. The initial wave of these 6″ action figures features Carl himself with Princess Donut, Mordecai, and Prepotente. There will also be an “extremely limited” true SDCC exclusive version of Carl and Princess Donut.
No word yet on pricing, but we’ll update once we know more.
