Frankenweenie Sparks New Life in the Hive
The Hive hums with static tonight — lightning crackles, shadows twitch, and a stitched-up pup wags his tail in the dark. On Day 7, we’re digging up something that’s equal parts creepy and heartwarming: Frankenweenie.
Tim Burton’s stop-motion classic didn’t just bring the dead back to life — it revived the hearts of collectors everywhere. And with two recent Pops lighting up, the hive has plenty to buzz about.
Victor with Sparky #2038
Release Date: September 2025
Average Price: $20.16
Released as part of the 2025 horror wave, this Pop perfectly captures Burton’s gothic warmth. Victor, holding his loyal companion Sparky, is the kind of sculpt that tells a story — and at just around twenty bucks, it’s an affordable entry point into Frankenweenie nostalgia.
Sparky #1632 (Funko Web Exclusive)
Release Date: June 24, 2025
Average Price: $26.28
This exclusive version of Sparky proves that sometimes the sidekick steals the spotlight. With its Funko-exclusive sticker and detailed sculpt, Sparky glows with Burton’s signature black-and-white charm.
Hive Collector Insight
The Frankenweenie Pops showcase what happens when a brand hits the sweet spot between nostalgia and new releases. Unlike the wild price swings we’ve seen in some horror lines, these two are holding their ground — meaning there’s genuine collector interest, not just hype.
Funko has done this before: launch a heartfelt property, print a modest run, and let the fanbase grow organically. The Hive loves that kind of slow burn. These Pops are reminders that not every collectible needs to be flashy to be special — sometimes it just needs to spark emotion.
