I Received FAKE Funko Pops! (What to Look Out For)

Hey Tristan, even the ozzy Osbourne pop from like the original run has the r for registered trademark

I'm buying from Pulsar Games and Amazon.uk but I am a collector of funko pops too so I don't really care if they are ,, fake " I love them.

Amazon has fake pops since people could sell there and the reviews don’t really help

Because he didn't do a good job with the comparison. Should compare the boxes side by side and point out differences. Can't tell a fake from the figure inside when buying on eBay.

[@stereoraediova]

That Trunks is absolutely fake. I own the figure myself and just by looking at the hair, it's waaay too bright. The real figure's hair is a more dull yellow, not that bright, neon yellow. Also, the sword is much too thick compared to the real thing. Plus the box is missing the NYC Comic Con sticker. I can also confirm the Trunks does have the rights reserved R next to the Pop logo.

[@someguy4253]

The stand test wouldn’t always work though. I’ve bought SO many brand new Pops that had problems standing before.

[@billdaniel5592]

Great video! Anytime something is highly collectible it doesn’t take long for fakes to enter the supply chain. Looking forward to learning more about these fakes!

[@Taureyn]

Day 2 of asking if tristan could open an online store where he sells funko mystery boxes as he did at previous comic cons.

[@michaelderuso5050]

Hey TopPops, you should do a review of ToyDrops. This has been a hot topic to discuss. I would like to see if you decide if it is a real Funko or not.

[@carterjr.662]

I love how every second he just proves more and more these pops are fake😂

[@tristan_cox.8670]

I still get a kick from watching this thanks Tristan for making the video with my package :)

[@zacgoodman]

tristan: "tristan, great name"

[@ChocoboWarrior091]

Just want to point out having the little R next to the POP! isn't the best indicator for whether a Pop is fake or not. I checked multiple Pops I own that I bought from places like Gamestop and they do not have the R as well. Seems like on a lot of older Pops, they didn't include the R. If anyone was curious.

[@hessel6875]

Hey Tristan, I just wanted to tell you that I'm a big fan and that you inspired me for my collection! I have 30 pops and I live in the Netherlands and it's hard to get here... I just wanted to thank you for being my idol! 😊❤️🙏🏻

[@jacksclips9343]

😎

[@MrFleshyMan]

You inspired me to make my own Pop collection. I have 65 pops.

[@rw_.2803]

Little trick I found to tell if they’re real or not is to scan the barcode on the bottom. It usually comes up with the wrong pop. I bought a fake Reaper on eBay to see how good/bad it was, and the barcode came up with a Spider-Man pop on the app.

[@jacobdrolet4262]

Amazing video top pops and who know that there even more fake pops out there besides the toy story ones too.

[@ChevyCitation]

At 7:19 and 9:07 That date code stamp on the box and foot "should go" like this L141020 - (14) = Year 2014 (10) = Month October (20) = Day 20th Double Check

[@AmyTannerSkrocki]

I buy cases of Funkos from the distributor/manufacturer and sometimes the colouring is slightly off on the boxes and figures.

[@markour-parkour1918]

Well I would imagine the older generation pops wouldn’t have up to date social media platforms from Funko though.

[@darthman9139]

Hey TopPops I’ve seen probably fake funko pops with a pamphlet with other Funko products for the theme of the pop. Like an Aladdin with a pamphlet of other Disney Funko products.

[@baggabarz]

Is that not called advertising 😂

[@louisecole6052]

Some of my older DBZ pops don't have the copyright R next to POP!, but these were bought from major retailers

[@josegoespophunting2261]

I saw a fake Funko Pop at OfferUp it was Michelangelo con sticker for 35$

[@mouserat126]

Can barely tell the difference tbh. Wouldn’t be too upset with the fake anyways

[@peeps4437]

I've gotten 2 fnaf pops at dollarama and there's a loose piece of plastic in one of their heads but the box looks legit and they have the copyright, just kind of shotty paint jobs. I still like them though since I don't really care about collecting pops I just want the fnaf and nightmare before Christmas ones

[@catandcaboodle6492]

Thanks for making this video. I hope you can make more like this in the future as well because I feel like these fakes are popping up everywhere. I've seen a whole bunch of the Indiana Jones Pop that you have for sale on ebay & other sites for around $24. Those have got to be fakes. And they ship from China. Do you think you could compare a fake Indiana Jones to the real one you have?

Question, do some of the older funko pops not include the r next to the logo ? 🤔 because some of my pops don’t include it but I’m 100% sure they aren’t fake

Wow... i had that Goku, and l suspected it was fake, so l sold $20dls... 🤭

[@kw9377]

I got a few pop without the ‘R’ logo.. but they are older pops, so maybe didn’t have it back then

[@zackpetrovic3029]

Only fake one I bought was the Planet Arlia Vegeta, paint job is OK and went to the effort of putting the stuff under the feet

[@benkrake3678]

I just went to comment before saying that I have a #10 Goku Pop, got it from a reputable Pop Culture store called Zing, and I thought it didn’t have the little info tab on Goku on the back of box. Just had a second look at it, and it does. Can’t believe I didn’t notice it before. At least I know mines genuine! 😁 I also have the gold chrome Super Saiyan Vageta Pop, but it doesn’t have the Toy Tokyo sticker on it, but just a basic exclusive sticker. However, I do have 2 fake Pops that I got from eBay. One is a SSG Goku red hair and the other is a SSGSS Goku blue hair. You can definitely tell they are fake, just by looking at the Pop’s themselves. They paint is off colour and not accurate at all! The boxes also look dodgy too.

[@aidenthesaiyansssja9511]

[@functiongarage]

So lots of misinformation here. The copyright logo is not there on the older pops. Also the paint jobs are horrendous on the older pops. Serial number didn't always match up because Funko mispackaged pops for years. Collecting since 2013 trust me you'd be surprised how poor QA was in older Funko.

I’ll tell you about the only fake -that I know of-that I’ve ever gotten. I purchased the metallic Whis from someone on Amazon and when I opened it up it was immediately obvious it was a fake-it was the common Whis with a badly faked Con sticker and also a very bad smell coming from it. Fortunately, because it was Amazon, I got my money back. Still-it can happen to anyone!

I had a 50 dollar budget and bought a 6 inch funko for 40 dollars, it was a rip off and the box was destroyed and tared, first of all, the paint was chipped, second, the eyes were not the correct color, and most importantly, the head could be removed and put back...

One thing about the first edition prints It didn’t have the writing on the bottom of the feet and a lot of the originals don’t have the R on the box and not only that the originals did you use different plastics so you’re actually thinking that’s fake but it’s not it’s actually worth more money my friend works for funko Pop

[@crimsoncomet6833]

i have bought from dollarama in the past and they all are legit based on your video

[@katebogarin]

That fact thing on the back really screams fake and the pop leaning foreword

[@mattpenix8438]

Also, do all Funko Pops have this “R” copyright logo in upper left hand corner next to the “Pop!” logo? If it’s not there, is the Pop a fake? Are there exceptions? I’ve seen the original vaulted run of Run DMC without the “R” copyright for sale on Ebay. And when I googled what a known legit box looked like, it too did not appear to have the copyright “R” stamp. Of course my reference picture of the “legit” box might not be “legit” either. Please educate!!! 😊

another way you can tell it’s fake is because it say 9 when it’s supposed to say 09
