Are These Real?
Let’s address the elephant in the room – how to spot a fake collectable.
The best way to spot one is definitely comparing it to the original! But we all know that’s not always easy, especially when you’re just starting out and scammers price fakes like the real deal. So, I’ve put together a few images to help you identify fake Pokémon cards and fake Funko Pops.
In addition, I’ve included some helpful links to channels and videos to guide you:
The YouTube channels serjo_funko_pop and PokeHann are great sources for when you’re trying to identify if your items are real or lemons.

About Me
Hello! You can call me DROM. Collecting has been a lifelong passion, spanning decades. I’ve delved into various areas, such as numismatics and Japanese manga, often trading or selling entire sets to pursue new interests in the hobby. Trading cards and Funko Pop! figurines have held a special place in my heart. In fact, I have been collecting and trading them for over thirty years all together.
More recently, 3D printing became a healthy obsession. I can use it to create both models and cards – A tailored collection of my own!!!
