REAL OR FAKE KOBE BRYANT FUNKO POP

[Nemesis989]

You'd be surprised. Some people in groups will shell out good money for a fake pop without even know until someone points out

They seem to be everywhere now. Up here in Canada we have a chain of Dollar stores that carry Toy Story pops that people point out as fakes

Wow are you serious. Random
Question can you get squishmallows up there I need the Canada versions

Haha yeah man, you can get those up here. I think I saw an 8 pack at Costco this weekend

Thanks for posting on the subject it helps us all out

General rule - if something feels to good to be true then it probably isn’t. Unless you know the person and the reason then I wouldn’t trust a random person. Do your research. Check feedback and compare to trusted images.

Yeah man, unfortunately I'm about 3 hours from the border, and then another 1.5 hours to the closest US city, so I don't make it that often. That's probably why SDCC is such a huge shopping trip for me

[Starwarsfanatic1]

I hope they make a new line of Kobe Pops with the proceeds being donated. Would love to own one of these.

It's funny you say that. There are sooo many times I will stress and wait in lines for hours and hours to possibly get something down there for retail when I think I should have just bought it from the comfort of my living room for a mark up

I have friends that go so I see the two different types. I am not going to just wait in lines haha. Sure if you get a good lottery slot then yeah. But my buddy literally went there to camp - ___ -. Waste. My other friend went to all the panels and planned out her days and got so much more out of it

Yeah. Plus he was camping other random ones like lego and etc. I would just be out getting drunk xD

My question is this: are there any signed version of the kobe bryant figurine out there? I went on google and found an image of one signed kobe funko. Same goes for a signed Spongebob by Stephen Hillengburg. If anyone has found those two online I would be astounded.

Here are the pictures!

The white borders on the front of the box, around the illustration where the spacing is quite large is a typically a giveaway of fakes.

But, I have a question for all you experts, I know the true OG Kobe Pop had the armband on his left(our right) arm, but later the Pop-Life/Mind-Style from Asia I believe produced the other Kobe Pops, which were his #8 jersey, the away purple jersey, and his gold jersey, minus the armband. Does anyone know if they are actually legit and real? I don't ever recall seeing the #8 or purple version not having a Pop-Life/Mind-Style logos on the bottom with the silver Pop-Life sticker.

The real ones should have an authentic square sticker and the FM sticker and the figure should have the NBA logo on a specific area of his jersey and shorts.

I'm getting tired to see all the posts asking for the legit check on FB group. When I tried to help and share what I know is real since I got them when they were first released, some people think they know and say what's real is a fake and some are posting just to catfishing and pretend that we NBA collectors don't know anything because there are only 3 Kobes showing in the PPG and app. Initially, he only posted the front of the box (which seems legit) and later update with his so call claims with emailing Funko and posting his purchases from that specific eBay seller from China.

I'm cool with my Kobe pops. I'm done helping anyone who asked about the legit check on him.
