HBO & POP team up for Silicon Valley:
New York, NY – January 11, 2017 – Your favorite characters from the hit HBO® dramas Game of Thrones® and True Blood® have already been immortalized as Pop! Vinyl figures – and now it’s time for the dedicated staff at Pied Piper to have their moment in the spotlight. Funko and HBO Global Licensing® are excited to announce a new line of Silicon Valley Pop! Vinyl Figures, which will begin rolling out in February ahead of the Emmy®-winning comedy series’ highly anticipated season 4 premiere.
The Emmy®-winning and Golden Globe®-nominated series Silicon Valley takes a comic look at the modern-day epicenter of the high-tech gold rush, where the people most qualified to succeed are the least capable of handling success. The Funko Pop! Vinyl series will include some of the most popular characters from the show, each standing 3.75″ tall and presented in a window display box. The figures are Ages 17+.
