Since they were first introduced at Comic-Con in 2010, Funko Pop! collectible figures have become increasingly sought after by collectors of all ages. Funko has released countless figures over the years, modeled after popular cultural references.
A unique aspect of Funko collectibles that embodies their enduring popularity is the diversity of the figures currently available. Like most collectibles, some Funko Pop! figures are exceedingly rare and worth substantial. For collectors unfamiliar with some of these figurinesーsome of the most expensive Pop! Figurines may surprise even the most avid Funko enthusiasts, especially considering their original retail prices.
10 Masters of the Universe She-Ra ($700)
Fans of He-Man and Masters of the Universe are undoubtedly familiar with his twin sister, She-Ra. First released in 2013 as part of the Masters of the Universe Funko series, She-Ra initially retailed for under $10.
However, in 2020, the collectible saw a substantial increase in value, consistently selling for over $500. She-Ra is no longer manufactured by Funko and is considered "vaulted," further increasing its rarity and overall worth at public auctions. A "near-mint" condition figure sold for an impressive $700.
9 Flashpoint Batman ($1,100)
In 2011, DC released an alternate timeline Batman series called Flashpoint. The story arc revolves around Thomas Wayne, who becomes Batman rather than Bruce Wayne. After his wife and son are murdered, Thomas Wayne dons the cowl and is notably more violent than his son's Batman portrayal.
Given Flashpoint's popularity amongst fans, it's no surprise that Funko decided to jump on the bandwagon and release a limited edition Pop! version of Thomas Wayne's Batman at the New York Comic-Con. A "new" condition, limited-edition Flashpoint Batman, recently sold for a staggering $1,100.
8 Boba Fett Droids Edition ($1,100)
Considering Boba Fett is a fan-favorite character from Star Wars, it's no surprise he has an equally popular Funko figure. In 2013, the San Diego Comic-Con exclusive Boba Fett figure was released and had since skyrocketed in value.
After the Mandalorian reintroduced the formidable bounty hunter, this limited edition Funko has steadily increased its sale value amongst collectors. In fact, within the past few months, its value has almost doubled. A new "mint condition" Boba Fett Droids Edition recently sold for $1,100.
7 Reggae Rasta ($1,225)
Bob Marley is widely considered the most influential Reggae icon to date. The messages he conveyed through his music have an undeniable enduring quality that is undoubtedly responsible for the Reggae Rasta Funko figure's incredible value.
Funko has an entire line of Pop! figures dedicated to famous musicians in their "Rocks" series. Most notably, the Reggae Rasta figure, released in 2015, recently sold for $1,255. Though that version was in "new" condition, the figure frequently sells for an average of $500.
6 Headless Ned Stark ($1,250)
Fans of Game of Thrones can't discuss the franchise without mentioning Ned Stark's tragic death scene. Ned is executed by having his head brutally cut off as the victim of political corruption.
Another San Diego Comic-Con exclusive, the "Headless" Ned Stark figure, was first introduced in 2013, a few years after the GoT series began airing. Though you can't put a price on losing the head of House Stark (pun intended), his family can perhaps take solace in the fact that a "Headless" Ned Stark figure recently sold for a whopping $1,250.
5 Metallic Mickey Mouse ($1,500)
Mickey Mouse is no stranger to the Funko Pop! treatment, with more than 50 different Mickey variations currently available. With this in mind, it should come as little surprise that some editions are worth substantially more than others, especially considering Mickey's worldwide recognizability.
One particular version consistently fetches a hefty sum at auction, however. As part of the D23 Expo, Funko released a limited edition "metallic" Mickey in 2011, of which only 480 were made. A "new" figure recently sold for $1,500.
4 Loki, Marvel Avengers Edition ($1,950)
In 2012, Funko decided to cash in on Thor and Marvel's Avengers' increasing popularity. That same year, Funko debuted a limited edition "SDCC exclusive" Loki figure at Comic-Con. Interestingly, it wasn't Thor whose figure became the most valuable.
The figure has seen a steady increase in value over the past several years, far surpassing collectors' expectations. A rare, limited edition SDCC Loki sold for $1,950 at public auction. Given recent trends of the figure's value, it could soon be worth even more.
3 Clown Face Dumbo ($2,000)
Like many Disney Funko Pops!, Dumbo figures are highly sought after amongst collectors. Though there aren't as many versions as Mickey, the Dumbo figures vary in value and rarity.
The most valuable Dumbo variation by far was released in 2013 as another San Diego Comic-Con exclusive. This particular Dumbo figure has his face painted like a clown, based on scenes from the movie. In 2021, a Clown Dumbo figure sold for mind-blowing $2,000. Perhaps more surprisingly, that version wasn't even in "new" condition.
2 Planet Arlia Vegeta ($3,500)
In 2014, Toy Tokyo released an exclusive Funko figure at the New York Comic-Con held that year. Based in New York, Toy Tokyo is known for its rare collectibles, and their Comic-Con release is no exception.
Planet Arlia Vegeta is modeled after the Saiyan's first appearance on his homeworld early in the Dragon Ball Z series. Most recently, a signed, mint condition figure sold for CAD $4,494, which comes to about USD $3,500. Though that was a signed edition, Planet Arlia Vegeta figures consistently sell for upwards of $2,500 - 3,000.
1 Holographic Darth Maul ($3,750)
Considering all of San Diego Comic-Con's exclusive releases, it's not surprising that they introduced one of the most valuable Funko Pop! figures in 2012. The Holographic Darth Maul is particularly well known amongst collectors for its value.
Interestingly, the figure has seen an incredible increase in value over a short amount of time, especially compared to other entries. Within the past year, the price has increased by several thousand dollars, within only about three months. In 2020, Holographic Darth Maul sold a used condition for just short of $4,000.
