The popular vinyl collectible company Funko — best known for its big-headed Pop! figures — has joined forces with DEF LEPPARD. The British rockers' collaboration with Funko was announced on Tuesday (October 29) in a blog post on the Funko web site. "Bring a massive sound wave of new wave British heavy metal to your collection," Funko wrote. Other artists who have gotten the Pop! Rocks treatment include KISS, METALLICA, GUNS N' ROSES, AC/DC, Ozzy Osbourne and Rob Zombie. A Funko vinyl Pop! figure, or popularly known as a "Pop!", is packaged carefully inside a box with a transparent front. The figurine is made out of vinyl and may come as a bobblehead. Funko reported that these figurines increased its sales by 38 percent in the second quarter of 2019. International sales spiked 65 percent to $68.5 million, while U.S. revenue grew 26 percent to $122.7 million. Headquartered in Everett, Washington, Funko is a leading pop culture consumer products company. Funko designs, sources and distributes licensed pop culture products across multiple categories, including vinyl figures, action toys, plush, apparel, housewares and accessories for consumers who seek tangible ways to connect with their favorite pop culture brands and characters.
