Having a physical one would have been cool if they did that from the start, maybe just included in each persons redemption as a bonus.

Series Coins are just for collecting, I had them all except Bob Ross. Personally, I would love if Funko actually made real coins or pins for them

Or some sort of patch. Also collect patches and coins so id get them all without a doubt. Make a little display for them and everything lol


Patches would be great too
or even a special NFT for everybody holding all the coins

I love the coins from the NFT packs. Each unique to their drop. Still not sure which one is my favorite.

The filament material isn't that exspensive especially if I made it silver dollar size. It would be really cool if it was done with metal. But some of the filaments come in shiny chrome, silver, gold,ect. For every drop would be cool, so far I'm loving the Back To The Future one.

Shoot, make some prototype see how they go. I have seen people print out the cards and make them metal which is dope but the series coins havent popped up


I'm going to get some materials and try it out, I'll let you know how it turns out once I do it.


I had this plan, but am still very much a novice with the 3D software. I was trying at one point to convert the images into 3d files so I could print them, but got stumped. Please let me know if you figure it out!

I have been trying to render the image from 2D, since I can't get it to stay in 3D from the gif. Then my plan was to split the coin in half to print it easier, but it may print standing on an edge. The overhangs would be so small, that it shouldn't matter much.

No with the just announced drop arcade I bet the tokens are used to play the machine. I knew the tokens would be worth something watch I bet. I even said this months ago in another post

Could work, could also be a lot for them to do on the back end. Would they reserve certain number of packs on the next release? Keep certain packs from a previous release that did not sell out?

I think they would be great with the Arcade, as long as I don't lose the token. Would be great if you could use it to play the arcade 1x each token, and then they could deactivate the token so it can't be used again. I just don't want to lose my tokens

Ideally Funko offers up some sort of redemption/burning option for not just the coins, but the old NFT cards. This would be good for a number of reasons-collector engagement, utility, and even environmental since they wont have to be stored on servers. I think the easiest thing would be for collector club points, but maybe some other raffles or something along the way.

Some options there, I think the easiest thing for them is points or some rewards towards a separate item on its own. That keeps it easier for them to control.

If you mean the token coins, then those are for the redemptions. You redeem them and then that’s how you get the physical pops sent to you at a later time.
