Funko HQ Hollywood is a more extensive Hollywood in-store experience. Pictures released from the vent showcase amazingly crafted areas based off of popular Funko lines such as Funko Pops and Rock Candies. Some of the displays would be amazing to see in person like the Hall of Justice, Black Panther set or the Stranger Things area. On top of that, it looks like there will be some exclusive at Funko's only available at Funko Hollywood. Showcase below it looks like we will be getting Marilyn Monroe, Freddy Funko with a star, Big Boy with sunglasses and then Huckleberry Hound and Wonder Woman with Funko HQ Hollywood bags. This is one-stop Funko fans should attempt to go to at least once. The public opening for the Funko HQ Hollywood store is November 18, 2019, so be prepared because it will be a madhouse.
