No, the Ruby Pop! Television is not considered rare. It was a standard production release from Funko's 2016 lineup and was widely available in retail stores and online. While specific variants like Chase figures are rare, the standard version is common and easily found on the secondary market.
The value of a Ruby Pop! Television figure depends heavily on its condition and whether it is sealed in its original box. As a standard 2016 release, the loose figure typically sells for a few dollars, while a sealed copy generally commands a modest premium, often ranging between $10 and $20. Prices can fluctuate based on current market demand and the specific platform where the item is listed.
To authenticate a 2016 Ruby Pop! Television figure (SKU 398), first verify that the packaging is a sealed, unopened box with the correct Funko branding and a legible SKU number on the back. Examine the vinyl figure itself for consistent paint application, proper proportions, and the specific character design associated with the 2016 release, as counterfeit items often feature sloppy molding or incorrect color shades. While there is no single definitive test for authenticity, comparing your item side-by-side with high-resolution images of verified genuine examples from reputable collector communities can help identify discrepancies in the box print quality or figure details.
The Ruby Pop! Television was released in 2016 by Funko.
Funko has discontinued the Ruby Pop! Television figure, so it is no longer in print or available to buy new directly from the manufacturer. The item is currently only available through the secondary market, such as online resale platforms, where prices may fluctuate based on condition and demand.
To condition-check a Ruby Pop! Television, inspect the vinyl surface for any scratches, scuffs, or paint chips, paying close attention to the head and hands which are prone to wear. Verify that the figure is securely seated in its window box and that the box itself is free from major dents, creases, or moisture damage. If you intend to have it professionally graded, the figure must be in its original, unopened window box, as grading companies like PSA typically do not accept loose figures for this product line.
