November 10th, 2016 San Francisco, Ca. – Super7 Retail, Inc. and Funko, LLC are pleased to announce that, effective immediately, Super7 Retail will resume designing, manufacturing, and distributing ReAction Figures and related merchandise. Since 2013, Super7 has partnered with Funko to release the ReAction line to great success. Super7 will build on that success by debuting a variety of new and exciting ReAction Figures in the coming months and years. Funko will continue to focus on growing its core lines of pop culture-licensed collectibles and apparel into 2017 and beyond, including developing an all-new line of action figures produced solely by Funko. Super7 invites inquiries from wholesalers, retailers and licensees regarding Super7’s full-line of ReAction Figures.
and some answers to expected questions...
A few answers to start with:
1. Yes, E.T. will still come out through Funko and you will be able to buy existing Funko inventory from Funko directly until they are out of stock. I believe they have a reorder also coming in on Dark Crystal. I do not know about Golden Girls, but assume yes on those as well.
2. No, we don’t hate each other. Funko has been more successful over the last few years than anyone could have imagined or predicted. In that time Super7 has grown as well. This was a perfect time for both of us to concentrate on core product lines for each company. To that point, we have the very last collaborative figure to announce for sale tomorrow.
3. When will we announce what is next for ReAction? Well, Street Fighter is out as of last week, and Hellboy is out in January. Everything else will be shown at NYTF 2017. (February) Hold tight, I think you will be very happy.
