For people that are lost, Funko is known for making toys and figurines. And these toys range from a variety of characters, including Marvel movie characters, famous pop culture characters, and even original characters.
Funko was known for these physical figurines. But now, Funko is also doing digital collections using the power of the blockchain. And they are gamifying the system by adding the chance to win a physical Pop! If you purchase a digital pack.
The first collection to be introduced in their Digital Pop! lineup will feature the infamous Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles. It will include characters like Michelangelo, Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo, and Shredder. The pack starts at $9.99, and you get five Digital Pop! collectibles in one pack.
There is also a more premium pack for $29.99 that has a pack of 17 collectibles inside. These Pops or a digital card will also vary in rarity from common to the highest rarity type called grail.

Redemption Coins
Users buying Funko’s Digital Pop! collection also have the chance to win a redemption coin which they can use to redeem physical figurines. These will be rare, and the user will have 30 days to redeem this coin for a physical figurine.
The important thing to note is that the current owner of the NFT can redeem the coin and not the original buyer.
All of this will be done on the WAX blockchain. Funko has already posted a detailed guide on how their NFTs will work and how they will use the WAX blockchain to make their NFTs.
