Sports NFT!

Postby PopPChulo » Thu Dec 01, 2022 3:07 pm

Hey funatics!?

What are your thoughts on Sports NFT drops?

In my opinion, due to the format of them having different series - I think Sports would do well. Especially if it’s Metallic variants or different poses from popular models. Also coupled with the fact that there are new rookies / popular players each season. I feel like they could cycle through different sports and each year wouldn’t run out of content to continously introduce new sports runs. Even between just the NFL, NBA and MLB. Wouldn’t mind seeing the MMA, WWE or boxing either. What do you all think? Do you want to see a Sports NFT drop?

I would not be interested, I don't even really buy any sports Pops.

BUT, I think that would really open up a great chance for Funko to do mystery redemptions. How about instead of pulling an Aaron Judge Legendary, you pull one that is just the AL MVP and whoever that ends up being is who you get? You could do it with all the major awards, or All Star Game MVP, or World Series MVP. I think that would be a cool idea.
Please Funko make Taylor Swift Pops!

It would be cool but for a Freddy royalty funko might have to change it up a little. we already seen him in the big three sports uniforms already, 9 football, baseball, and basketball).

I'd be down for some sport NFTs. The concept of having rookie card NFTs would be cool.

Licensing would be the biggest hurdle here IMO - as the major sports leagues right bow have their own NFTS already.

Yup, doubt this happens due to licensing. Cool idea though. I'd be interested for some NBA NFTs.

Unless it’s all or mainly about number 23, I don’t see this working out.

I think this could happen, just a matter of when there a ton of possibilities for this.

It's a interesting idea and I could see it. Right now either NBA or NFL would make sense but I could see them doing more MLB in the Spring to test the market. It probably all depends on how much they are willing to pay the sport. :freddy3:
