No, the Joe Namath Pop! NFL figure (SKU 245) is not considered rare. It is a standard production item from Funko's NFL collection that was widely distributed and is generally available for purchase at retail prices.
The value of a Joe Namath Funko Pop! (NFL #245) typically ranges from $10 to $20 for a sealed figure in retail condition, depending on current market demand. Prices for opened figures are generally lower, often under $10. As with most standard Funko Pops, value is highly sensitive to condition, with sealed items in original packaging commanding the highest prices.
Authenticating a Funko Pop! requires a visual inspection of the packaging and figure, as there is no official serial number database for individual units. Look for a crisp, high-quality box with the correct SKU (245) and check the figure for consistent paint application, proper articulation, and the official Funko logo on the base. If the item was purchased from an authorized retailer, it is highly likely to be genuine, but significant deviations in color, texture, or box print quality suggest a counterfeit.
Funko Pop! NFL series figures, including Joe Namath (SKU 245), were generally released in 2013. This specific figure was part of the initial wave of the NFL line launched that year.
Funko has discontinued the Joe Namath Pop! NFL figure (SKU 245), so it is no longer in print. You will not be able to purchase a new copy directly from Funko or major retail partners, and availability is now limited to the secondary market.
To condition-check a Joe Namath Pop! NFL, inspect the vinyl figure for any cracks, chips, or paint imperfections, particularly on the helmet, face, and jersey details. Verify that the figure is securely seated in the window box and that the packaging is free from significant dents, tears, or fading, as these factors significantly impact resale value. For a formal grade, you can submit the item to a third-party grading service, though most collectors assess condition visually based on the presence of flaws and the integrity of the original packaging.
