Funko Unveils New 5 Star Collectible Figures

New 5 Star Line of Vinyl Figures to Launch First with Harry Potter Inspired Series

EVERETT, WA, May 16, 2018 – Funko, Inc. (“Funko,” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: FNKO), a leading pop culture consumer products company, today announced the launch of 5 Star, its newest brand and collection of vinyl collectible figures. Warner Bros. Consumer Products has collaborated with Funko to launch the first 5 Star series of vinyl collectible figures which will feature fan favorite characters from the beloved Harry Potter film series.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with Warner Bros. Consumer Products to unveil our newest brand, 5 Star, which offers fans both opportunities for play and storytelling as stylized vinyl figures within collectible packaging,” said Brian Mariotti, CEO of Funko. “As we continue to expand our product offerings across categories, Funko plans to offer retailers a more curated assortment of licensed pop culture products. Featuring a fresh approach to packaging, stylization and articulation that offers more ways to play and display, 5 Star will allow fans to explore their favorite characters and worlds. We couldn’t imagine a better place to start than within the Wizarding World.”

The new collection continues the Funko tradition of creating distinct and whimsical designs that inspire fans to connect with their favorite pop culture characters and stories. With Funko’s attention to detail and characterization, the new 5 Star brand is designed to offer several unique features including three points of articulation, window display box packaging situating each character in its own unique world and thoughtful accessories that further the character’s narrative. While the initial collection will launch with Harry Potter, Funko plans to expand the line to additional licenses later this year, including DC.

Funko anticipates that the 5 Star Harry Potter inspired figure collection will be available in July 2018 and that each figure in the collection will retail for $10 each. Each three-inch vinyl figure will be accompanied by an animal companion such as Hedwig the owl or an iconic character-defining object such as Harry’s wand.

5 Star is the latest brand to join the Funko portfolio which includes Pop!, Mystery Minis, Dorbz, Pint Size Heroes, Rock Candy, SuperCute and Loungefly.

Funko is thrilled to dive deeper into the world of storytelling and pop culture with our latest line of collectible vinyl figures – 5 Star!

In addition to Funko’s usual attention to detail and characterization, the 5 Star line boasts several unique features including three points of articulation, allowing the figures to be posed, window display box packaging that mimics the opening of a book and situates each character in their unique world, and thoughtful accessories that further the character’s narrative.

Collectors with a passion for creatively displaying their figures can capitalize on the ability to use 5 Star figures’ different poses, incorporating the accessories and even the packaging to create a unique tableau or diorama that continues the narrative adventure.

The 5 Star line launches with the ever-magical Wizarding World with the beloved Harry Potter and his friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley with their Hogwarts mentors Albus Dumbledore
and Rubeus Hagrid. Each figure is accompanied by an animal companion such as Hedwig the owl or by an iconic character-defining object such as Harry’s Hogwarts acceptance letter or Hagrid’s pink umbrella. Each figure will cost $10.
