Funko debuted in 1998, but only became a cultural icon in the past decade or so. The brand’s iconic vinyl figurines and bobbleheads are inescapable and feature almost every character ever created. Of course, a large collectors’ community has emerged, giving rise to some incredibly valuable Funko Pops. To fuel the collecting of Funko Pop figures, Funko often releases exclusive figures in very limited numbers, including all of the Funko Pops on this list.
