SDCC 2023: Funko Doubles The Size Of Funkoville With Blockbuster Rewind Video Store And More

by Gary Catig

Funko is always one of the busiest booths at San Diego Comic-Con due to the wide variety of items they sell that cater to many fandoms. This year, the company has big plans for their neighborhood-like experience on the show floor.

They will have double the footprint of 2022 with spaces featuring Funko, Funko Games, Loungefly, Mondo and more. From July 19-23, attendees can visit “Funkoville” at booth #5341. Visitors can enjoy new interactive experiences, brand storefronts and more in the “funnest city in the USA!” Stroll past a donut shop, bowling alley, Loungefly boutique and Mondo gas station selling new and exclusive pop culture collectibles.

If you’re feeling nostalgic, head over to the Blockbuster Rewind video store. Time travel to the 90s imagine visiting your neighborhood’s local video store and browse and purchase the company’s new, innovative collectibles based on iconic films. This throwback experience will showcase for the first time, a collection of the new VHS-themed collectibles in collaboration with Blockbuster.

CEO Brian Mariotti is excited to share the one-of-a-kind experience. He says, “For 25 years, Funko has been a fan-first company. This is why San Diego Comic-Con is a pinnacle moment for us every year, as it provides the opportunity to create memorable moments for our fans through larger-than-life activations. With the Funkoville booth being twice as big this year, we look forward to offering an even better way for fans to immerse themselves in their favorite fandoms.”
