Find out how to tell if a Funko Pop is original and protect your collection! Funko Pop! figures have become essential items for collectors around the world. In Spain, their popularity continues to grow, but so does the risk of finding counterfeits. If you are a lover of these figures and want to make sure that each piece in your collection is authentic, this article is for you. Below, we offer you a complete guide to identify an original Funko Pop! and avoid falling victim to scams. 1. Inspect the box: the first signs Print quality One of the most obvious indicators of a fake is the box. Original boxes have bright colors and well-defined details. If you notice dull colors, blurry prints, or typographical errors, you could be looking at a copy. Codes and labels On the bottom of the box of an original Funko Pop! you will always find a production code. This must match the code on the figure. If the code is missing or does not match, it is likely a counterfeit. 2. Examine the figure: quality that speaks for itself Material and weight Original figures are made of high-quality materials, which gives them an adequate weight and a solid structure. If the figure is excessively light or seems fragile, be wary. Details and painting Paint is another key factor. On an original Funko Pop!, the details are precise and the lines are well defined. Counterfeit figures often have misalignments, paint blobs, or colors that don't match the image on the box. 3. Check the codes: guarantee of authenticity Code in figure In addition to the code on the box, original Funko Pop! figures have a code engraved on the base or back of the figure. The absence of this code is a clear indicator of counterfeiting. Official applications A very useful tool for collectors is the official Funko app. Scan the barcode on the box and check if the figure is registered in their database. This step can save you a lot of headaches. Discover our complete list of ORIGINAL Funko figures available here 4. Prices and sellers: cheap is expensive Suspiciously low prices If you find a Funko Pop! that's too low to be real, it probably isn't.

In Spain, many stores specializing in collectibles offer guarantees of authenticity. If you decide to buy online, check the opinions of other buyers and make sure that the seller is trustworthy. 5. Beware of exclusive editions Limited edition or exclusive figures are especially vulnerable to counterfeiting. These pieces often have unique details and special packaging, so pay attention to each feature before making a purchase.
