What is an exclusive Pop?\r
An exclusive Pop is one that has been manufactured to a strictly limited quantity, significantly increasing its potential financial value at a later stage but most definitely ensuring that it has a coveted position among Funko fans. They are also known as Funatics and are generally keen to get their hands on anything new that gets released. Exclusives tend to sell out fast and might be released as part of a special event as what the industry calls a Shared Exclusive. A prime example of this being the San Diego 2018 Comic-Con who collaborated with Funko to exclusively release a new line of much-anticipated collectibles. Generally, in order to get your hands on an Exclusive Pop, you need to stay ahead of the game and get yourself on the mailing list and following fan threads in Funko chat rooms. Then head over to the likes of Amazon and the Funko Pop up Shop plus a whole host of other well known high street and online retailers to ensure that you aren’t disappointed and miss out on acquiring one. Most exclusives can be identified by a special sticker that is positioned on the clear plastic part of the box as opposed to the regular releases. Exclusives might feature unique colors, metallic paints or things like glow in the dark characteristics.\r
