Fake Vs. Real

Billy 52 – Saw

The fake Billy pictured here was acquired when we were buying a large lot of Funko’s. The individual who sold it to us had no idea that it was fake. They explained to us that they purchased it from eBay and thought that it was real. They also bought a bloody Billy from eBay that was fake. This individual has over 2500 Funko’s and had no idea that these were fake or that there were even fake Funko’s.
