Tristan was signing with Mike Becker at SDCC, so maybe he was being groomed to take over? lol

I like TopPops a lot - when I was out of work last summer, I rewatched so many of his videos just because I needed the positivity - but I don't think his skill set lies in hosting an event like FunDays. I never attended during the period when Mike was gone the first time, were those just hosted by Mariotti?


Yea with celeb guests for the most part iirc.

Everyone i know is kinda sick of fluffy. We all like him but enough is enough sometimes and we want fresh faces. Last year wasnt as bad as he was part of the show and not a guest celeb.
IMO though i think what funko will/needs to do is just hire a production company to do the event and have a guest celeb host it (maybe with Tristan as a co-host or something)

I think we all guessed it, but Karissa is part of Thrilljoy. NYCC announced their panels today and there is a Thrilljoy panel hosted by Brian and Karissa. No mention of Mike Becker or Dave Bere.

Aw I watch her lives on instagram. Sometimes it’s time to move on. Best of luck to her. Hopefully someone just as good takes over.
