About this deal
Always do your research and when in doubt ask. There is a weekly thread posted every Tuesday for people to ask about fakes. A lot of people recommend setting this to "US Only" or "North America". Using the filtering above, I recommend leaving it at "Default". Just because a Funko comes from overseas doesn't mean that it is fake and just because it comes from within the US, doesn't mean it is real. Alright so you're interested in purchasing a pop, but you're worried you might be buying a fake. If you're looking for a non-authentic pop to add to your collection, that is fine and I have nothing against that. This is for the people who are spending full price on a pop and hopefully avoiding getting a fake in return. For the purposes of the information below, I will refer to all fake variants (custom, "China version", ect) as simply fakes. Scrolling through, there are more consistent results of Funko Pops that look strikingly similar to each other and that's a good sign that you are looking at a majority of real Funko's. (This differs greatly depending on piece and rarity though). Alright looking at our results, the first pop is a reproduction as stated in the title and description with the "RP". (This is something that you can filter out if you'd like)
Eyes: Although it appears that the fake doesn't have the red rings in his eyes, he actually does. But they are really dark. A: I actually attempted that and that is how I ended up writing this guide. We all have our own grails and what we want. It's difficult for me to identify all the signs for fakes from series that I don't collect or know nothing about. This is more to assist others in what they're passionate about. A: Well maybe you can write up something similar to a pop you know very well and prevent others from being scammed. Find a couple that look legitimate (compared to Funko app or poppriceguide) and open them in more tabs Using the Funko app or poppriceguide.com you can find pictures of the pop and what it's supposed to look like.
Thank you
It’s an event enjoyed by both die hard fans and families alike and has raised thousands of pounds for charity. Not all fakes are created equal. Mass produced ones in China will be more common, but there are a few fan created replicas that has more details than the China versions.
