Autographed Funko POP! Encapsulation Process
Our tamper-evident holders are a great way to safely store or display your special autographed POP! figures.
Step 1
Eligible Items
Only autographed Funko POP! figures and autographed Funko POP! boxes are eligible for encapsulation. Unboxed Funko POP! figures are not eligible for encapsulation.
Step 2
Examination
The autograph is first evaluated for authenticity by our authentication staff. If deemed genuine, the autograph is then eligible to be graded on a scale from 1 to 10 (if the customer has selected the grading option).
Step 3
Encapsulation
PSA then encapsulates the Funko POP! box along with a PSA Lighthouse™ security label that displays its certification details and a unique PSA certification number.
Step 4
Documentation
A security sticker with the same PSA certification number is also placed on the item or Letter of Authenticity (LOA). An image of your certified autograph can be verified publicly using PSA’s Certification Verification webpage or mobile application.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have a question about Autographed Funko POP! Encapsulation? Please check out FAQ’s for answers.
No, PSA does not currently authenticate or grade the condition of the vinyl figure box or the figure inside the box. PSA will only authenticate and grade the autograph(s) on Funko POP! figures and boxes. If the signature passes the authentication process, it will then be encapsulated. An autographed Funko POP! figure submitted without its box is not eligible for encapsulation.
No, at this time PSA will not encapsulate an unsigned Funko POP! An autograph on a Funko POP! figure or its box must pass the authentication process to be encapsulated.
Unfortunately, if the autograph(s) is/are not certified as authentic by PSA, PSA cannot encapsulate the vinyl figure box.
Authentication fees are non-refundable whether the autograph passes authentication or not. If the autograph does not pass the authentication process, the $25 holder charge will be refunded. If you submit your autographed Funko POP! for authentication and encapsulation through a discounted special or promotion, the $25 holder fee is nonrefundable.
