Funko has partnered with Netflix to launch a collection of licensed Funko POP! figures based on KPop Demon Hunters.
Available now, the new Funko POP! range is one of the first hardline collectible offerings to hit retail following the film’s release in June.
The new range includes popular characters from the Netflix film including vocalist Rumi, rapper Zoey, dancer Mira, demon Jinu and the supernatural duo Derpy and Sussie. The figure of Derpy and Sussie includes special glow-in-the-dark elements, while the Jinu vinyl figure offers a limited-edition chase variant to appeal to Funko POP! collectors.
“At Funko, we love celebrating stories that ignite passion in fans, and this is a perfect example,” said Funko chief commercial officer, Andy Oddie. “We’re extremely excited to see the fan reaction to these POP! Figures and know they will make for golden additions to shelves.”
The launch is part of a wider collaboration between Funko and Netflix that will offer additional cross-category collections inspired by the KPop Demon Hunters universe.
Founded in 1998, Funko is a global company that creates licensed pop-culture and lifestyle products through its Funko, Loungefly and Mondo brands.
Through its brands, the company delivers a wide selection of items including vinyl figures, micro-collectibles, fashion accessories, apparel, action toys, high-end art and more.
