Over the past few weeks, I observed that there was a sudden surge in interest with regards to Funko event posters, which I believe is mainly from the post of Becky over at Instagram - so let me try to chime in with the fun as well - and I am happy that a lot of us are in the same boat.
I mostly acquired them pre-pandemic, but during the pandemic, I have a lot of time and browsed through the boards and managed to add some pieces that I didn’t know that existed. Then, I slowly manage to frame them one by one to keep the conditions of the posters intact, the only problem is that I store them together as I have no place to hand all of them at the moment.
[next goal is to have a big house to hang all of these up.

Also, if there are any factual errors, or any other fun tidbits, please let me know, as I got the information mostly through the boards, and/or at that time of my acquisition.
First off, this is just Part 1 of my entry with regards to the Funko posters
I accumulated across the years. The order I am placing them is roughly from the oldest to the most current one.
The Funko Wacky Wobbler Galaxy of StarsThis piece also served as the catalog for the year 2003. I think there was no official catalog that year.
For additional reading about catalogs, this thread by Kroffty below is a good read.
