Funko announced the release of its newest product line titled 'Funko Snaps!' The inaugural Snaps! collection will feature characters from the popular horror game series 'Five Nights at Freddy's.' This game is popular with fans of varying ages from young teens up to young adults, making it an excellent property to use for the first Snaps! collection.
As opposed to regular Funko models, the Snaps! toys will be more interactive, allowing for moving limbs and interchangeable parts. Regular Funko Pop! models are suited for collectors and are intended to simply be displayed on a shelf. The Snaps! toy line diverts from this model by promoting interactivity and entertainment, making it more suited for the younger generation.
The Funko Snaps! toy line will be available in the coming weeks at Funko's website, as well as third-party retailers such as Walmart, GameStop, and Amazon. Individual toys feature an MSRP of $9 while larger play sets will be priced at $35 USD.
