They have actually done quite a bit of that and not learned their lesson yet. In 2016 they promised a lot of properties, including the Munsters but not the Addams Family. They were specifically asked about the latter and replied that not everything they wanted was available. In 2017 the started talking about Addams Family and stopped mentioning Munsters. To date, they have delivered nothing on either property. I think they may have dropped Munsters in favor of Addams Family and then failed to get it because of the new animated movie coming out in October. Their lack of transparence in these matters does not exactly inspire faith, trust, or confidence in them. Perhaps Mattel or Hasbro could get away with this because they are established companies, but Funko has not been around long enough to afford these types of mistakes, and right now they are banking on their Pops line. Eventually that bubble will burst and they will need a reputation they will not have in order to survive and grow.
