Fans can’t always predict when a new Funko will come out, but they do know that they’ll likely revolve around the latest cinematic and fan obsessions.
    • At the start of every year, Funko hosts a “Funko Fair” that showcases and teases upcoming releases, allowing fans the chance to pre-order certain collectibles.[1]
    • Partnering with retailers like Walmart, Target, and Amazon, Funko also hosts exclusive drops for retailer-specific cons and events.
