Honestly, it's all about the nostalgia factor. Funko Pops cover so many franchises from the '80s and '90s that millennials and Gen Xers grew up with. Seeing your favorite, sometimes obscure, characters in cute figure form? Irresistible.

I mean, they're kinda everywhere because they're affordable. Not everyone can drop big money on collectibles, but most can swing a Funko Pop now and then. Accessibility has definitely helped their popularity.
