AFAIK their whole business model consists of pumping out new releases as quickly as possible and dumping as much inventory on new releases everywhere at once as possible. And they don't do reruns (AFAIK), so how ever many they make of one pop is all there'll be.
The way it seems to work they release a new version of some pop in big retail chains like Target or Walmart. Collectors and scalpers travel from store to store to pick up as many as possible and then resell them online. The more units Funko can release the more money they make.
They have to have a massive inventory and the second demand dips things start to pile up.
That seems like a shit business model
It worked, until it didn't.
The whole Funko Pop ecosystem is a freak show from top to bottom.
