Spread Some Holiday Cheer with Sideshow Gives Back 2020!

How It Works

Looking to spread a little cheer this holiday season? Every year, Sideshow likes to Give Back to our fans and collectors, and you can help! If you have a family member, friend, or loved one who needs their spirits lifted this season, nominate them for the Sideshow Gives Back 2020 campaign!

How do you nominate someone for Sideshow Gives Back? Simply go to our Sideshow Gives Back landing page, and find the submission form. Submit your gift recipient’s details (name, shipping address- sorry, no P.O. Boxes!), the reason you’re sending this request (in 200 words or fewer), and which collectible you think they’d be thrilled to receive.

We will then be selecting a portion of wishes to fulfill and secretly ship them out before the holidays as a surprise to the recipients. (Unfortunately, we cannot fulfill all requests submitted.)

Past Sideshow Gives Back Recipients

We’ve had tons of incredible Sideshow Gives Back stories over the years. Here are just a few lucky recipients who were nominated for a special surprise by friends and family:

“Anthony is kind hearted. He never asks of anything from anyone. To me, he is essentially Peter Parker before Peter was bitten by the spider. He doesn’t know his own strength, the power he holds, he’s just waiting for the one pivotal moment for it to be unleashed and his entire life to change.

He lost some of the greatest Spider-Man comics of all time due to an accident in his basement many years ago. I think Anthony is one of the most unique individuals on the planet, because no matter what obstacle he faces, he overcomes it. He’s earned the title of Peter Parker.” –Tyler

“I was completely blown away when I received an unexpected package yesterday! When I read the card and saw that Sideshow had made my son’s Christmas wish come true I was truly in shock!!

I had planned on giving it to him as a gift from Santa, but I decided he should know the truth…that it was a gift from you guys!! When he opened it he was very surprised and soooo happy! He truly appreciates the generous gift and cherishes it daily!

You have brought tears to my eyes. Thank you!!!! Merry Christmas!!“

“To all the wonderful Angels at Sideshow Collectibles… this was made from the heart.
Treebeard was the one that started it all
My addiction was born and my collection grew tall
Sideshow Collectibles was introduced in my life
Little did I know they would make me a wife
On Dave’s forum I met another collector
His name was Booyah or George, not Hector
He too was Sideshow Collectibles biggest fan
And to my surprise he came with a plan
After wooing me for 6 months we decided to meet
He was the nicest guy and ever so sweet
One year later we decided to get hitched
Sideshow Collectibles had 2 collectors bewitched

Soon after that we had a big surprise
The first Sideshow Collectors’ baby was on the rise
Sideshow Darth Critter was his name
He will grow to have great fortune and fame

Darth Nathan was born on August 26, 2008
And like the darkness he was 2 weeks late
He screamed bloody murder when he was born
The Dark Side of the Force came in strong

Now 4 years later collecting runs through his veins
And our wallets are in constant pains
Marvel Superheroes and Dinosaurs are his favorite toys
Nathan and his daddy are my favorite boys
Sideshow Collectibles
The company with a heart as big as can be
Makes collectors dreams come true, I agree
So I entered a wish for my little son
And guess what… he won, he won, he won
On the box said do not open until the holiday

Sauron’s Eye sees all and Christmas is still far away
But our family will respect Sideshow’s request
And we will not open the box we will really do our best
I wrote you this poem as a very special Thank You
We feel so humble and blessed and this is true

From the bottom of our hearts
We will cherish our surprise forever
And forget your kindness we will never

Thank you again for our wonderful prize
Sideshow Collectibles
The company of Angels in disguise!

From our Family to yours,
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
