Comic-Con: Cool gear and collectibles you can get without heading to SDCC

Here are 40 of our favorite convention-quality buys.

Whosoever holds this hammer, if they be worthy, shall possess the power of tenderization.

This replica Power Gauntlet, part of the high-end Marvel Legends series of collectibles, is slated for release on Oct. 31. But you can preorder it on Amazon today.

This Deadpool-esque version of Pikachu is just too cute.

This replica of the Eye of Agamotto (Doctor Strange) is made with faux leather straps and measures 4 inches wide by 3 inches high by 1 inch deep.

You watched the Saturday morning cartoon. You saw the movies. But let's face it -- none of that compared to the thrill of playing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game with your last few quarters.

These SDCC 2016 exclusive action figures were inspired by that classic game.

You can also pick up this set of four game-inspired Foot Clan baddies, including the turtle-hungry Shredder.

Some people (*cough* Peter Parker *cough cough*) need to rely on Tony Stark for Spider-Man suit handouts. You, meanwhile, can simply pick up this spandex number on Amazon.

An uncut pizza 🎵
Sitting in a box 🎶
Who you gonna call?
Why, this Ghostbusters pizza cutter from SDCC 2015, of course.

If you really want to nail that Tony Stark cosplay, you'll need some armor. This gorgeous piece from the Marvel Legends collection features a magnetized faceplate and light-up eyes.

Without a doubt, this ABS plastic Iron Man gauntlet is expensive. But with fully movable joints, an LED light and more, it's about as cool (and legit) as Iron Man cosplay accessories get.

This Figuarts/Bandai Goku figurine, a 2017 SDCC exclusive, is so darn cool you'll want to pull him out of his collector's box. (But try to resist the temptation!)

This sweet piece of stainless steel jewelry comes in its own gift box. And if you're not a fan of The Flash, no worries -- there are versions with the Superman, Batman and Green Lantern logos as well.

This (shiny) Dark Knight Funko, a 2018 New York Comic-Con exclusive, can still be picked up on Amazon via resellers.

He kinda blew it in Avengers: Infinity War, but we just can't stay mad at Peter Quill. This adjustable Star-Lord helm actually includes built-in speakers and music detection via Bluetooth wireless (AA batteries not included).

Nothing screams collectible quite like a Funko Pop! with an unusual chromed finish. But this one, from the Marvel Studios 10 line, is actually quite affordable!

Before using these seven dragon balls, remember the rules: You can't wish for the same thing twice, you can't revive someone who died of natural causes, and you can't go wishing for more wishes.

This latex foam, life-size replica Alien egg prop (nearly 36 inches tall) has articulated flaps and lights up with 3 AAA batteries. It even comes with its own facehugger.

This smaller, resin version of the Infinity Gauntlet may not be able to control time and space, but it can pop open your next brew.

To be fair, the baddies in Captain America: The Winter Soldier had a little bit more tact in admitting their allegiance than to show off a 3-foot by 5-foot Hydra flag like this...

Pair this synthetic leather jacket with the Star-Lord helm you saw earlier and you've got an amazing Comic-Con-ready cosplay look.
