The surprises didn’t stop there, as Funko brought the house down with Pop! Talk Live at WonderCon 2023. The night was filled with giveaways, celebrity guests, and a celebration of Funko’s 25th anniversary. To mark the occasion, founders Brian Mariotti and Mike Becker even brought out Disney Legend and Imagineer Bob Gurr, who was inducted as Funko’s first-ever hall of fame inductee.
Becker and Mariotti also dived into some new Funko product designs, as well as pulled the curtain back on some exclusive Loungefly Designs, including some chillingly perfect Haunted Mansion accessories that are sure to find well more than 999 happy haunts wanting to take them home!
