Funko and Marvel collaborate on collectible physical and NFT figure

Marvel Comics and Funko have announced they’re working together on a new digital/physical figure via VeVe that features Iron Man. Releasing on October 18th, the collaboration “merges the realms of physical and digital collecting.” Marvel and VeVe have been in the NFT business since 2021 after VeVe announced its plans to be the first-ever carbon-neutral NFT platform. The collaboration is in celebration of 60 years of the character’s rich comic book history. The first Funk Gold premium vinyl collectible will feature Iron Man with only 3,000 pieces available, costing $150, with a matching digital collectible figure available on the VeVe platform included with every purchase. “Our approach to collectibles is centered on creating new ways for fans to show off their most treasured IPs,” said Steve Nave, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. “Being able to be a part of Marvel’s celebration of Iron Man through this collaboration with VeVe is the perfect way to show Funko’s commitment to collectability and ability to bring fandoms to fans in all forms.”. Veve has committed to 100% carbon neutral NFTs as well as offering grants to help causes, but when they will reach carbon neutrality remains to be seen.
