WATCH: HOW FUNKO RULES THE WORLD! And NEWS FROM THE NEW YORK TOY FAIR

Funko is more than a line of toys — it’s a cult, a movement, and its popularity has changed how we hunt down collectibles and exclusives. We know, because everyone on the CON GUY team has become a member of this cult. This week, we open up that toy box and see what’s inside. Plus, Ben gives us the latest news, Derek gives a rundown of conventions to watch for, Katie provides convention updates.

The 117th annual Toy Fair New York opened its doors last week at the Javits Convention Center in Manhattan, and we learned all the new toys and exclusives that will crashing store shelves — not to mention comic cons and fan conventions — this year.
