  • Gross margin dropped to 32.1% from 42.0% year-over-year, impacted by tariffs, inventory reserves, and higher shipping and duty costs.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.

Funko Inc. is an American toy company with multinational operations that is most known for its extensive range of pop culture-related collectibles. The company's primary product line, Pop! Vinyl figures are immensely popular and are characterized by oversized heads and large, pupil-less eyes.

Vinyl figures to include plush toys, action figures, and board games. Funko is headquartered in Everett, Washington, and its shares are listed on the Nasdaq.

Founding and Growth

Funko was founded in 1998 by Mike Becker in Snohomish, Washington, and initially focused on creating nostalgia-themed bobbleheads. Funko underwent a transformative change in 2005 when Mike Becker sold the company to Connor Orcutt, who then served as the Chief Creative Officer. Following the acquisition, Orcutt relocated the company's headquarters to and initiated a significant expansion of Funko's licensed product offerings. A key development in this expansion was the introduction of the Pop! Vinyl line of figurines in 2011, a move that marked a major milestone for the company. By 2012, this strategic shift had borne fruit, with Funko achieving over $20 million in merchandise sales. Over the years, the company has cultivated a strong following among collectors and pop culture enthusiasts.
