Highlights of Funko Comic-Con 2024 include:
– **Pop! Yourself (#5045): For the first time at this major pop culture event, fans can participate in Funko’s Pop! Yourself experience inspired by Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine. Each day, fans can line up at the activation station to create their own cosplay character modeled after Deadpool or Wolverine, complete with character body and two additional accessories. Attendees will also receive exclusive Comic-Con packaging, a surprise “buddy” collectible, and access to two exclusive accessories, including a Deadpool VIP lanyard and a TVA-inspired device. This exclusive Comic-Con experience costs $50. Additionally, fans at home can join in the fun via the Pop! Yourself online experience starting Wednesday, July 24. The online experience includes a $20 limited edition ‘attach pack’ to cosplay their Funko Pop! as Deadpool or Wolverine alongside the standard $30 Pop! Yourself collectible.
Johanna Gepford, SVP of Revenue, stated, “Last year, we introduced our Pop! Yourself program to our fans and the response has been beyond what we could have ever imagined. Celebrating our one-year anniversary by directly engaging with the deep-rooted fandom of our Funko community allows us to immerse our fans in all things Funko at the epicenter of pop culture with our brand-new cosplay experience inspired by Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine.”
