Funko Will Not Be At NYCC and Announces New Virtual Con Event Instead‼
It looks like Funko has pulled a zinger and announced that they will not be at the physical NYCC event but a virtual con is on the way
This will open the floodgates for other vendors to bail as well.
Where they at?
Four weeks to go🤔 ⬇️
NYC Mayor 🤡 stopped updating the daily infection rate and all citizen app displays is "1% slowly rising".
I'm guessing our infection rate is high among the fully vaccinated, partially vaccinated and unvaccinated,a recipe for disaster.
Funko did the right thing,better to continue their visual convention which did very well for them last year, as well as their small in-person FunKon at the Hollywood store.
Now suppose they have an employee or employees who medically can not get this shot,with NYC stringent rules,regulations and restrictions they might have felt some kind of way of having to make a decision to leave them behind and excluding them.
If they had the option of Fully Vaccinated Papers or COVID-19 testing like some events are doing,this might have turned out differently.
I don't expect DC to have a booth there as well,with yesterday's announcement of DC FANDOME..."All Fans Are Welcome"‼
That slogan is throwing some shade at NYCC for excluding (segregating) a nice chunk of their attendees and this is not a good look for a company that is all about diversity and everyone is welcomed at New York Comic Con.
They probably purchased all the badges returned after they announced "Vaccinated Only" from Lyte and reselling them tomorrow, Funkos announcement couldn't have come at a worst time,but hey.....there still is John Cena.😏
