The Ultimate Guide To Funko Bob Ross NFTs

Funko is bringing the The Joy of Painting legend Bob Ross to their NFT collection.

Bob Ross NFTs drop December 21st, at 2pm ET.

This NFT drop does spark some controversy with a recent Netflix documentary painting an unsavoury battle for the rights to his image, with his family cut off against the painters dying wishes.

It's a complex, murky legal argument that is in stark contrast to the joyful spirit Bob embodied. Of course, there are two side to this sorry tale and it's important to weigh all arguments to draw your own conclusion.

Now here we are, maybe after a series of happy accidents as Bob would say, with a Bob Ross Funko NFT collection complete with redeemable physicals.

In the true spirit of being free to make our own choices, here are all the details to get involved with the Bob Ross NFT collection:

1. Getting Started: Droppp Wallet

You will need to sign-up for a Funko Droppp wallet.

This wallet allows you to house your Funko NFT collections, open Funko packs and redeem physical rewards.

We have a complete guide on the Droppp account, so you can learn to register for a free or paid account, open packs, redeem physicals and more:

TokenHead App

It's also worthwhile installing the TokenHead app (owned by Funko) which is excellent for viewing and sorting your NFTs.

Here is an awesome guide on how to install and use this app:

2. How To Buy Bob Ross NFTS

At launch, on December 21, you can queue up to purchase packs direct during the drop ($120 transaction limit).

The queue is randomised once the drop goes live and quantities are limited, so there is no guarantee you will grab a pack on launch day.

Two packs will be available to buy - a Standard ($9.99) and a Premium ($29.99) option.

Pack Amount Released No. of NFTs Launch Price Launch Date
Standard Pack 24,000 5 $9.99 21/12/2021
Premium Pack 8,000 15 $29.99 21/12/2021

This drop is 12k standard packs and 4k premium packs less than the recent Funko Star Trek NFT collection. That collection was too big in my opinion, so it's good to see the numbers come down for Bob Ross.

Both the standard pack and premium packs are functionally identical aside from the number of NFTs found inside.

Buying on the Secondary Market

It's usual for launch day packs to sell quickly and for many the secondary market will be where most purchases are made.

Secondary pack prices have been reasonable, but it depends on the Funko drop. Most drops have settled close to the retail price which is great for Funko fans!

WAX Cloud Wallet

To buy from the secondary market, you will need a  WAX cloud wallet.

3. Bob Ross Collection & Rarities

Bob's happy little NFTs bring the joyful painter to life in the form of an NFT Pop! and Soda. It also has his Happy Brush and Happy Tree alongside Max TokenHead and Funko's mascot Freddy.

NFT Rarity Type No of Templates % Odds Of Unpacking Total Circulation Per Unique Template
Common 17 46.58% 111,801 6,577/6,576
Uncommon 12 30% 72,000 6,000
Rare 8 16% 38,400 4,800
Epic 4 6% 14,400 3,600
Legendary 2 1% 2,400 1,200
Grail 1 0.42% 999 999
1 of 1 6 0.0375% 6 1
Series Coin 1 30% 3,200 3,200

The smaller circulation improves the odds over the Star Trek drop, which is definitely a good thing. There is also now a 30% chance of hitting a series coin, compared to 10% in the previous drop.

Although not confirmed, it has been hinted that collecting these coins across each drop will be used for something in the future, so it's worth getting your hands on them.

4. Mastery & Physical Redemption

There are a total of 4 Bob Ross physical Funko Pops! to collect.

Three of these can be claimed by collecting the Grail (limited to 999) and two legendary (limited to 1,200 each) NFTS.

Each Grail and Legendary NFT will entitle the lucky holder to a physical collectible once redemption tokens are distributed (120 days after the drop).
