While specific color variants or limited editions of this character may have lower production numbers, the standard black figure is common and generally accessible to collectors.

To authenticate your Funko Pop! Marty Byrde (SKU 1196), first verify that the box is sealed with the original shrink wrap and that the printed SKU on the bottom of the box matches the official product listing. Inspect the figure itself for consistent paint application, proper articulation, and the presence of the official Funko logo on the base, as counterfeit items often feature blurry printing, misaligned eyes, or a lack of the standard "Pop!" branding. If the packaging appears damaged, the figure feels unusually light, or the plastic quality is inferior to other genuine Funko products, it is advisable to consult a professional authentication service for a definitive assessment.
