And because numbers often say more than a thousand words, here comes heo in numbers


People & Campus - the heonaut crew


More than 240 heonauts keep the heo universe in motion. A diverse team of specialists, problem-solvers, creatives, collectors, and logistics pros working behind the scenes to bring pop culture to fans around the world.


Herxheim Campus Fun Fact - powered by fruit

  1. Bannanas consumed per year: ~ 2,000 kg

  2. Apples consumed per year: ~ 1,300 kg

  3. Pears consumed per year: ~ 1,100 kg

  4. Salads consumed per year: ~ 6,964 kg

  5. 750 Edding markers and

    1,500 ballpoint pens per year


Across the company, ideas spark fast, shipments move even faster, and equipment is used with remarkable enthusiasm.

Flops - the most beautiful failures in heo history


Yes, even after 30 years, mistakes happen. Some too legendary not to share:





Resident Evil Tyrant Statue (2008)


Our first exclusive! Unfortunately, also our first mega-flop. It stayed in the warehouse for years before being given away. Nemesis probably saw it coming.





















Harry Potter Funko Pop, Gilderoy Lockhart


A colleague accidentally ordered ten times the intended quantity. Lockhart suddenly appeared everywhere. Everywhere.














Breaking Bad Statues


Developed for years, released long after the hype faded. Say my name? Sadly, no one cared anymore.
