Project Fred's inaugural edition pays homage to Funko's history by commemorating the first licensed character ever created into a Funko collectible. Bob's Big Boy was not only the first licensed Wacky Wobbler but is now also the first edition of Project Fred.

Delve into the history of Bob's Big Boy, which dates back to 1936 when Bob Wian purchased a burger stand and named it Bob's Pantry. Fast forward to 1998, when Funko obtained the rights to produce the iconic character as a bobblehead, marking a significant moment in Funko's journey.

Bob's Big Boy's cultural impact extends across various realms of pop culture, from music to movies.
