Updated October 16, 2017: Funko has filed registration paperwork for a proposed initial public offering (IPO) of Class A common stock to be traded on the NASDAQ Exchange. Although a share price and the number of shares to be offered has not been announced, the company has reserved the ticker symbol FNKO. For this, Funko has enlisted Goldman Sachs & Co LLC, J.P. Morgan, and BofA Merril Lynch as lead book-running managers and representatives of the underwriters.

The variety of new pops these days is incredible. Just in the last couple of days there's been a new Hellboy (with missing eye and Excalibur even,) Mr. Bean with an amazing chase, "What's Opera Doc" Bugs Bunny, it's nuts.

Picked up Tom Servo and Crow T Robot and placed them on a shelf in my son's bedroom. I'm betting at least a month before he notices they're there.

I want to take the Mr Bean chase and make a custom Monica Pop from Friends!

There are so many great things coming out, but I am going to have to start getting more choosy. I am running out of space (okay, I am already out of space). There are also Star Wars Dorbz coming out tomorrow (Oct 27). Trying to resist...

Hah, I had forgotten about that Friends episode. I keep telling myself I need to tone it down too, with mixed success :) Trying to go complete on Thor Ragnarok, still trying to get Surtur and the Target exclusives might be tough.  Ordered the PX Hellboy and Lying Cat exclusives from a courtroom no less, while waiting to found out about jury duty.

One nice surprise recently was all of the Bob Ross pops and how positively everyone responded to them, was nice to find that bit of shared nostalgia with people.

I saw those Star Wars Dorbz at the Disney Store over the weekend and am trying to resist especially since I bought wayyyy too many Last  Jedi minis over the past month.   Actually, with all the different store exclusives and the 1/72's and horrible ratios, it would be better and cheaper to focus on Dorbz. 

Also started a Funko Stranger Things collection but I'm trying to be ultra selective about it...so far I only have the 3 pack of action figures with Eleven, Lucas and Mike and a single carded Dustin, a dorbz Eleven and a few of the minis which I don't like the design of so I'll stop getting those.   I'll probably just get Dorbz of Dustin and Steve (if they make one) and call it a day.

Funko fever finally gripped a UK con.

I was at MCM Comic-Con this weekend and the Funko booth had exclusives. Big lines to get in. However everyone got in and got what they wanted.

Funko is is going to be publicly traded on the NASDAQ (FNKO). The IPO was $12 but it seems like it went down to $7 over the course of the day. I thought about buying some but luckily decided not to. I am interested to see what it does in the long term though.

You know Funko has a terrible grip on you when despite your claims of not buying anymore Stranger Things minis because you don't like the designs of them, you come across untouched cases of them at Target and Barnes & Noble and come away with a Hopper, Lucas, Demogorgon with closed face and Eleven with the blond wig.    :P

Also got a Dustin Dorbz from HT.   If they make any version of him with the catcher's mask and goalie gear, I'll definitely get it (watch that be one of 2018's SDCC exclusives)

I bought some at $7. I hope it's a fun ride :)
