Nooooooooooooooooo>Previously, it was reported that the company had renegotiated terms on several outstanding loans following the devastating losses earlier in the year, but now it looks like even those terms may not be met. According to an SEC filing by the company, “"[T]here is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.”>The company described a "…challenging retail environment where retailers have slowed their restocking, prioritized lower inventory levels, and, in some cases, have canceled their orders." Like many companies, Funko is putting a lot of the difficulties down to tariffs. They continued, "Tariffs reduce net sales, gross margin, and net income, and could impact consumer discretionary spending in future periods," the company said.https://movieweb.com/funko-could-shut-down-kpop-demon-hunters-range-hope/
Good
>>11619749>"We delivered a solid 2025 third quarter performance, with net sales in line with internal expectations and gross margin and bottom-line profitability well ahead of expectations. Sales of our Bitty Pop! line, which made Walmart's 2025 Top Toy List, was a key contributor, and our strong gross margin benefited from the swift implementation earlier this year of our tariff mitigation plans.>“I’m only 60 days into the role, but it’s already clear how powerful the Funko brand is and how much growth opportunity lies ahead. Our Make Culture POP! strategy is all about being at the center of the moments everyone is talking about. Beginning with lightning-fast launches like KPop Demon Hunters—where we’ll be one of the only licensees on shelves this holiday season—we’re moving fast to turn pop culture into products, expanding into new fandoms, delivering bold retail experiences, and celebrating the creativity that makes Funko unique.”>Despite this rather positive outlook given the circumstances, the company has admitted that consideration is being given to several strategic moves, which could include the potential sale of the company.Bitty Pop is their last chance to save them now. What went wrong?
>>11619749>oh look, another duplicate thread with an even worse click bait source!
1. Why does anyone buy these ugly things? 2. How the heck are they so in debt? They sell overpriced pieces of plastic
Good riddance
>>11619749I like their mini sized figurines. But I don't like their normal sized ones, it takes up so much space for something that can't do much.
>>11621574They make Funkos of literally anything. A lot of product that isn't being moved. Doesn't seem like a smart model.

>>11619749Hahaha fuck Funko. Anyone who collected them instead of just buying a PEZ dispenser (functional) of a character they like is retarded.
Sucks that they will drag mondo down with them. Mondo is expensive but at least they make what people want and stuff looks accurate
>>11619749Why does funko get so much hate? I like many of the pops and bitty pops are cute, my problem is they are overpriced but you can wait for discounts. Also, dometimes funmo is the only company that does some movies or characters that otherwise would have merch.

>>11624844It's also extremely overpriced 1:12 crap. They deserve to die for charging a hundred dollarydoos for a 6" He-man with the most basic paint and articulation.
>>11624950Found the poorfag who can't appreciate workmanship and art when he sees it.
>>11624961I accept your concession
>>11624952I have plenty of figures on the way that cost more than that Mondo slop, and they have better engineering and paint than anything those hipster faggots ever made. I'm sorry you were retarded enough to fall for the Mondo meme.>workmanship and artLololololololololIs that what you tell yourself so you don't rope? "The corporation is actually an artist. This He-man figure is like a Monet, only mass produced. It really is a bargain at only $100 because of the supreme workmanship that gives each limb less range than a $24 Masterverse figure, and the paint details that have less effort than a $40 Mythic Legions figure are just to die for."You are a fucking embarrassment.
>>11624974>talks like a 15 year old>expects people to believe they can afford real toysYou really are a sad one.
>>11624980I accept your concession
>>11624987>ad hominem attacksI accept your concession
>>11624850Same
>>11624850It’s ugly, standardized slop that’s also ubiquitous. A perfect storm for bad will. I’d rather have nothing than a horrific dead-eyed representation of a character I actually like.
>>11626603Why not let let other people have it? I never understood why do you hate other people enjoying things
>>11619749YouTooz won
>>11619749Funko should:>only make licenses that sell and are popular, not every IP needs a Pop>focus on bitty pops, it's a good idea>stop making 10 variants of the same character>stop overproducing them
>>11619749turns out their core audience of casual buying millenials stopped buying their products after they went through all the relevant ips and when the economy went to shit and they stop spending on friviouls things
