Screen Rant is pleased to announce a new Pops! With Purpose collection from Funko and Color Compton, featuring two iconic figures with strong ties to Los Angeles. Originally founded in 1998, Funko has only grown in reputation over the years, becoming a sought-after source for collectibles pertaining to everything from film and television to video games and real-world figures.
Many Funko Pops are true collector's items, with values of over $10,000. Funko will donate $10 from each purchase of the limited-edition figures in this new collection to Color Compton, an organization dedicated to uplifting students in the Compton community by exposing them to arts and history. Color Compton was founded in 2019 by Abigail Lopez-Byrd, who serves as the group's Executive Director. Lopez-Byrd had this to say about the organization and Funko Pop collaboration: SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Our organization seeks to engage students through exposure to arts and history.
