Best NFL Funko Pops to Collect This Season

NFL Preseason Is Here! Time to Build Your Roster

The NFL preseason is officially underway, which means one thing for collectors: it's the perfect time to lock in your favorite player figures before the season hype drives demand up. Whether you're a die-hard fan or shopping for the ultimate football gift, here's your guide to the best NFL Funko Pops available right now, including premium Funko Gold figures.

Standard NFL Funko Pops: The Fan Favorites

Standard NFL Funko Pops are the entry point for any football collector. These 3.75" vinyl figures capture your favorite players in their official team uniforms with the iconic Funko style. They're shelf-ready, giftable, and officially licensed.

What to look for in a great standard NFL Pop:

  • Rookie figures: first-year players in their debut uniforms are historically the most valuable long-term
  • Star quarterbacks and skill positions: QBs, wide receivers, and running backs tend to have the widest collector appeal
  • Team exclusives: some figures are tied to specific retailers or events, making them harder to find

Funko Gold: Premium NFL Figures for Serious Collectors

If you want to step up your collection, Funko Gold figures are the premium tier. These 5" figures feature enhanced detail, premium packaging, and a more realistic aesthetic compared to the classic stylized look. They're designed for collectors who want something display-worthy and investment-grade.

Key differences with Funko Gold:

  • 5" scale: larger and more detailed than standard 3.75" Pops
  • Realistic proportions: less stylized, more true-to-life player likenesses
  • Premium packaging: collector-grade boxes built for display or storage
  • Limited production runs: lower print runs mean higher long-term collectibility

Right now, our Funko Gold NFL figures are available at a discount in our Clearance section, a rare chance to grab premium figures at a lower price point.
