EP120 – Funko’s Rocky Road – Mondo End of an Era?

Rick and Piper are on fire again with some crazy Funko News. More bad news for employees as Funko decided to lay off key members from Mondo Prints creative team. They also discuss what this may mean for artists in the industry wanting to work for Funko, will it impact current employees, and Funko’s major business strategy transparency problem. Piper and Producer Brandon also stumbled upon what appears to be a critical error in the Funko App and vaulted status of some Pop! And as always, the team talks Funko NFT releases.
