-History-
Involvement Around Neopia: Funstuff industries has been involved in creating and distributing everything from plush toys to playing cards for years, but has not really done anything to change the world. It's just a toy company.
How They've Changed Over The Years: Originally a single toy retail store in Meridell, the industry began growing when they began stocking fabrics and sewing supplies; a practice they later abandoned, but one that began an era of design and experimentation. Those who bought the fabrics from the store began making plushies and doll clothes, and selling them back to the store. The children liked the brightly-colored and unique things that came in and out of the shop, and business increased. Eventually there was enough money in the shop's sphere of influence to buy a second building in Brightvale and turn that into a workshop, and to hire several of the people who were selling toys to the main shop. Producing their own products they began expanding further still, and as the years went by, and eventually morphed into what they are today; a steadily growing source of fun and games for the whole family.
