Funko STOLE Fan-Made Designs?! New FNaF Arcade Vinyl Review

Fun Fact: Fredbear plushie model was made by Emil Macko also known as the creator of FNAC

Funko: hippity hoppity your design is now our property

Designer: Hey everyone! This is my design that I worked very hard on!

Funko: You mean, OUR design?

Actually, they did talk to the artists. I watched a video about it, by both of the creators talking about their designs being taken by funko. But they were okay with it, and we're fine with everything that Funko had done with the money. They just want the model to be successful. Which is sad they're giving Funko money for popularity.
Edit : seeing as the creator of FNAC was working with Scott cawthon, I can see now that I was correct in this comment. Scott is paying them to work on their game even more, unlike Nintendo which just beats the fan games to smithereens. Mad respect Scott

Fredbear's plushie figure model was made by Emil Mack (Creator of Five Night's at Candy's).

And the Foxy plushie figure model was made by an artist called Spygineer.

It's unclear that Funko has ever asked permission from either of them, but that shouldn't be their fault since most of the companies that work for Scott just tend to google search
and pick designs without checking it's originalities.

Foxy should have had a strap for the eyepatch to make it more original.

I feel like I recognize the Foxy plush design more exactly from something else. I can't quite put my finger on it, but the second I saw it, I had an undeniable feeling I had seen the exact design and pose before. Bus, since this video is a few years old, it's possible that I've just seen these figures before.

Who here ACTUALLY thought the plushtrap one looked really cool?

Nobody:


Funko: Hippity hoppity your model's our property!

A fan: there we go a model that took me forever to make it took me 50 years lives were lost cuz of purple guy and after all these years I done it I made my very own model of FredBear










Funko: my model

I wish Scott was still here

Scott : the fnaf movie is still a thing

Me : so when is it coming out...

Scott : it’s coming out in 2027

funko: *makes a line on a Freddy hat*

Andie: S O Y O U H A V E C H O S E N D E A T H



No but seriously Andie, I hate when Funko does that too.

Funniest part is the stolen designs being arguably better than the original ones, I wish the creators had the means to make their own models- or even plushes with those designs! I'd buy them in a heartbeat!

No one:
Funko: We’re going to print on everything, use cheaper fabric, reuse bases, and steal designs.

To this day I'll never understand how Funko thought they'd get away with stealing an extremely popular Fredbear Plush model let alone one made by an incredibly popular face in the FNaF community

Someone: Makes a popular fnaf model
Funko: Our Model

It's not really too hard to believe that they mistook it for an actual official model that's Scott used. I mean heck, I also thought it was in game. And also considering how widely used this model is...yeah.

Hello, I am from the future! The FNAF movie will come out and it premieres on October 27th. Just wait 5years!
