Funko was never substainable because people, if they wanna buy that trash, will only buy specific characters. Now.. if they put out say an obscure character from an obscure movie like... dr weir from event horizon. And then release hundreds of thousands of that into the world. That shit is gonna sit there for a long time. Someome comimg along would have to like event horizon, the character or the actor. Multiply that with tens of thousands of characters..
There arent enough funko "collectors", the ones that buy every funko. My dad bought thousands of funkos during covid.. terrible terrible waste of space and ugly. Most dont sell for shit. Like 5 to 10 bucks. Shit.. after fees, taxes and inflation, lucky to make your money back. Not to mention wasting time and other costs to list them to sell.
Edit to change weird to weir.
