FUNKO IS NOT your average toy company.

In fact, it doesn't necessarily consider itself a toy company at all, but rather a business that trades in pop culture, offering goods to fans who, for all intents and purposes, demand product that keeps the pace of social media.

Speed is Funko's greatest asset, making the company one of the world's largest and most prolific licensees.
