Funko Pop Mania at Comic-Con | Entertainment and Celebrity News
Description
San Diego Comic-Con’s biggest buzz isn’t the movies—it’s Funko Pop! figures, with fans camping for days to snag ultra-rare editions from Invincible, One Piece, and Baldur’s Gate 3. Some sell for $5,000 on eBay, sparking a global frenzy where collectors fly in, wear sold-out merch, and bid on the spot. Funko’s CEO admits the struggle to keep items in fans’ hands—not resellers’—and is rolling out “Pop! Mystery” blind boxes with one-of-one rarities they’ll buy back for $10K, hoping to gamify the hunt and level the playing field for everyone.
