FNKO

Funko, Inc.

A maker of Funko Pop! vinyl figures — stylized pop-culture collectibles with oversized heads covering characters from blockbuster movies, hit TV shows, video games, and comics. Founder Mike Becker started the company in 1998 in his Washington home after deciding a vintage Big Boy restaurant mascot bank cost too much, so he licensed the rights and made his own. The name blends "fun" and "co" to capture the playful spirit behind the brand.
