Disney | Marvel
Fans of Marvel’s Agatha: Darkhold Diaries are expressing frustration after Funko Pops! reportedly revealed major plot spoilers for the ongoing series. The collectibles, based on the character Agatha Harkness from the show Agatha All Along, are said to have disclosed key details about two central characters, sparking outrage on social media.
Funko, the popular toy manufacturer known for creating figures of beloved pop culture characters, launched its new line of collectibles inspired by Agatha All Along. However, rather than excitement, fans were met with disappointment when they discovered that the toy packaging seemed to unveil significant plot twists from the Disney+ series.

Alleged Spoilers Revealed by Funko
Although many fans have avoided directly sharing the specific spoilers to preserve the viewing experience for others, social media posts suggest that two major plot points were revealed:
- Joe Locke’s Mysterious ‘Teen’ Character: In Agatha: Darkhold Diaries, Joe Locke’s character is known simply as ‘Teen’, and his true identity has been a source of much speculation. One of the Funko Pops! figurines is rumored to have revealed this hidden identity, which was expected to be a key reveal later in the series.
- Aubrey Plaza’s Rio Vidal: Aubrey Plaza plays the character Rio Vidal, also known as the Green Witch, who has a mysterious connection to Agatha Harkness. Fans had theorized about her role and her potential past relationship with Agatha, but the new Funko Pop! apparently gave away a surprising twist about her character’s true identity.
Fan Backlash on Social Media
Upon discovering the spoilers, many fans took to social media to voice their anger. Several users felt that Funko and Marvel had carelessly ruined the suspense and excitement of the show. Tweets ranged from disappointment to outright frustration, with some users posting comments like:
“I just got spoilers over leaked #AgathaAllAlong Funko pops… Makes me so sad.”

“Not me getting spoiled over Funko Pops! This is not how I wanted to find out.”
“Honestly, if the Funko Pops hadn’t been leaked, I think people would’ve figured out Rio’s identity from the show, but this just feels wrong.”
This isn’t the first time Funko Pops! have been accused of spoiling plot details for upcoming movies or TV shows. In the past, similar incidents have occurred where collectible toys inadvertently leaked character arcs or costume designs ahead of major releases.

Agatha: Darkhold Diaries on Disney+
Agatha: Darkhold Diaries premiered on Disney+ on September 18, 2024, with the first two episodes already available for streaming. The series, a spin-off of WandaVision, centers on Agatha Harkness, played by Kathryn Hahn, and delves deeper into her backstory and powers. The show also introduces new characters, including Locke’s ‘Teen’ and Plaza’s Rio Vidal, whose true identities are now central to the plot.
With episodes being released weekly, many fans are trying to avoid spoilers as the story unfolds, but the Funko Pop! leak has thrown a wrench into the experience for some.
While Funko’s collectible figurines are usually celebrated for their ability to capture beloved characters, this time they seem to have unintentionally caused frustration among fans of Agatha: Darkhold Diaries. As the series continues its weekly release schedule on Disney+, viewers are left hoping that the remaining twists will be kept under wraps, allowing them to enjoy the show without further spoilers.
