Funko hosted a booth and presented a panel at Star Wars Celebration Europe 2023 this April (7th – 10th), at London’s ExCeL attended by tens of thousands of fans over the four days.
On Sunday 9th April, in collaboration with Lucasfilm, Funko hosted their first ever Star Wars Celebration panel Funko: Collect Across the Galaxy, in which show launches were celebrated and a world-first announcement was revealed. Hosted by The Mandalorian star Emily Swallow, the panel featured Funko, Funko Games and Loungefly.
STAR WARS BITTY POP!
The first reveal was a worldwide exclusive show and tells of the hugely anticipated Star Wars line of Bitty Pop!, an all-new miniature collectible form factor featuring characters from Star Wars: A New Hope. Inspired by the brand’s world-famous collectible Pop! product, Star Wars Bitty Pop! will be available this Summer with future expansions of the line to come.
