How to Spot a Fake Funko Pop
First off, check the box! Legit Funko Pops have clear, sharp printing and you'll usually find a serial number at the bottom or on the foot of the figure. Fakes, on the other hand, often get sloppy here – blurry text, weird colors, and sometimes no serial number at all. Also, pay close attention to the figure itself; the paint job on a genuine Funko Pop is neat and within the lines, whereas fakes often have smudges or overpainting. And let's not forget the weight - real Funko Pops have a certain heft, while fake ones often feel lighter.

I bought what I thought was a rare Pop from a dude online, and boy did I learn the hard way. The paint was a dead giveaway – it looked like it was done by a 5-year-old in art class. Plus, the box looked like it had been printed on a home printer. Now I always make sure to ask for detailed photos and check the packaging and figure closely before buying.
Just weigh it, lol. If it feels like a feather, it's probably fake.
