Since January 2013
What are your favorite fandoms?

What was your first Funko item?
An Edward Scissorhands Pop! I bought from Hot Topic.
What is your favorite Funko piece in your collection?
My Mega Dorbz X-Force Deadpool is hands down, my favorite Funko piece! Since there weren't many of them made, it took me about 2 years to find one. Ever since, I can't picture my collection without it!
Tell us your favorite Funko story!
Throughout the many years of collecting Funko, I've met so many people from various states, who all share similar interests as I do. It's a great feeling to be able to come together and geek out, since being a geek was pretty much frowned upon for most of my High School years and becoming an adult.
Last year I was able to attend my first Funko Fundays. It was an amazing feeling to finally be able to put faces to usernames, whom I've been talking to for years on the Funatic forum. Fundays made me realize how incredible of a company Funko really is and how much they do for all of their fans. I've never felt that kind of joy and excitement in my life!
Usernames became faces, faces became friends, and friends became family. I wouldn't have it any other way and it's all thanks to Funko!
