The Standard pack will net you 5 Funko NFTs and the Premium will get you 17.
To purchase, simply login to your WAX wallet:
When you click on 'market' in the header, you are looking for the collection tmnt.funko which can be filtered on the left-hand side:
When you click on tmnt.funko. It will take you to the collection. To filter for packs, simply click on packs.drop.
This will show you all packs available for sale. This will default to the 'newest' listings. You can toggle by the lowest price, by changing the top right dropdown filter to 'Price (Lowest)':
This is a great way to find the best price for the pack you want. Keep this in mind though, there is a delay in the 'Listings (Newest)' appearing in the 'Price (lowest)' filter. It's a good idea to check the lowest price first and comparing against the first page of the 'Listings (Newest)' results.
This will ensure you get the best price available for the pack you want (or any NFT you purchase through the Atomic Hub).
You can also use the search bar to narrow down your search further. For example, if you only want to browse all the Standard packs available, simply type in 'standard':
You don't need to press enter, it will dynamically filter as soon as you start typing.
Once you have found the price you are happy with, you can either click 'buy' which launches a quick buy pop-up. Or you can inspect the NFT further by clicking on the image or 'details' button.
We recommend you use the 'buy' button method, as it pulls the most important information you need for making a purchase:
Quick buy pop-out
The first thing to look out for is the tick symbol against the collection name. This means it's been verified by the Atomic Hub and you know you are buying a genuine Funko NFT (yes, there are fake listings out there).
Next to look for is the mint number (the sequence order in which the NFT was minted against the template), the seller account and of course, the price. This is displayed in WAX first and the dollar value in brackets.
Another useful piece of information is the number next to the 'flame' symbol. This shows the number of packs that have been opened. In NFT terms, this means the NFT no longer exists and is 'burned', hence the flame symbol.
If you hover or tap on the 'of 20,000' it will also show you the current existing supply (how many packs are left).
Once you are happy to proceed, simply click 'Buy for x WAX'. You will need to confirm the transaction and wait whilst the order processes. A tick symbol will appear once successful.
Congrats, you have purchased a Funko TMNT pack and it will now be in your inventory!
If you can't afford a full pack, don't worry, you can buy a slot in a pack opening on WAXStash. Once all the slots are filled, the opening will happen and your slot will be assigned a random NFT from the pack. Cool!
Of course, you don't need to buy a pack. You can buy character cards direct from the secondary market too.
To do that, when you search for tmnt.funko, simply click on series1.drop. This will filter all the series one digital trading cards. You can also filter further, by selecting the 'rarity filter' on the left-hand side.
4. The TMNT collection & rarities
The collection features 15 characters from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise.
Fun fact, the UK name is 'Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles', as 'Ninja' was seen as too violent for children!
These are brilliantly captured as gorgeous digital trading cards.
A list of 'good guys' from Leonardo - Splinter
We have all our favourite turtles: Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo and Donatello. Our master Splinter and April O'Neil (who was first a computer programmer in the original comics, then a news reporter and even as a warrior in the adventure comics) rounds of our main goodies!
They don't half look bodacious!
Some of the bad guys from Shredder to Krang - Casey Jones is ready to take them on!
Supervillain Krang to all-time classic villain Shredder are all here. Casey Jones, the crime-fighting vigilante by night, is ready to protect his friends April and the Turtles.
Metalhead, Leatherhead and Rocksteady make an appearance!
Donatello made Metalhead is even here for the fun!
There are six rarities to collect (with unpacking chance % below):

Characters don't come in all rarities. For example, Metalhead is only available in common rarity (with six different common designs). Each unique Metalhead common template is capped at 3,007 mints.
The Grail tier, the rarest of them all, has a max supply of 999 and is only available in one character, Leonardo:
The legendary rarity has a max supply of 1,467 per character template and is available in Bebop, Shredder and Casey Jones.
The Funko NFTs can also feature cool animation like this Epic Donatello:
There was also a chance to win a special 1/1 NFT featuring Freddy Funko or Max Tokenhead. These have all since been found, but you can find them on the secondary NFT market for a pretty penny.
Instead of the special 1/1, you will find a silver TMNT coin in your pack. However, these have been confirmed to have no use and there is no plan for them right now.
But that's not all.
The two rarest TMNT tiers, Legendary & Grail, have an incredible prize up for grabs!
5. Claim A Rare Physical Funko Pop!
⚠️
Physical redemptions are now closed for this Funko NFT set!
Legendary & Grail
Legendary & Grail tiers can be used to claim a physical Funko Pop! These physicals are exclusive to this NFT drop and won't be re-released anywhere else.
How cool is that!
To redeem, you have to hold a Legendary or Grail tier NFT in your wallet, 120 days after launch (1 December 2021).
Grails are limited to 999 (Leonardo) physicals and legendary are limited to 1,467 (Bebop, Shredder & Casey Jones) physicals. It's highly unlikely that all these will be redeemed as many packs are often left unopened.
Master Collection
You can also complete the master collection, collecting all Funko TMNT NFTs from common to epic rarity. Hold all these Funko's in your wallet and you will get a unique physical Freddy Funko (seen above, limited to 2,160. Again we expect a lot less to actually be redeemed).
To easily see what you need to collect, simply click on your inventory in the Atomic Hub.
Then tap collections:
You will find a complete list of collections that you hold
Select 'TMNT x Funko Series 1'. You will see the rarity tier tabs at the top, from Common to Grail. You need to collect very Common, Uncommon, Rare and Epic on these lists:
Example of the Epic tab
As you can see, I have two epics. The epics I don't have are greyed out. From here you can click 'quick buy' and it will automatically pull a pop-up buy page for the lowest market price. Neat!
Once you have your Legendary, Grail or complete Master Collection, simply hold them in your wallet on the 1st of December 2021.
You will then be dropped a special Redemption Coin that can be burned (burning means the NFT will no longer exist and you will get the Physical Pop! in return. Don't burn anything until full information on claiming has been disclosed nearer the time!).
Also, it's important to note that the legendary, Grail and Master Collection NFTs won't be burned. So these sets won't get rarer through a burning event (something NFT collectors look out for).
It's only the dropped coins that will be burned, so you can still enjoy your cool digital collectable after you have claimed the physical.
If you sell your Legendary or Grail tier NFT before the coin drop event, you will not receive the redemption coin. Only the WAX account that holds a Legendary, Grail or Master Collection NFTs on the day of the event will get the redemption coin.
You will have 30 days to redeem your Redemption Coin from the day it is deposited in your WAX account.
All U.S addresses will have their physical Pops! delivered for free and can be expected within 30 days from redemption. International shipping may carry a fee.
No doubt these coins will be used to incentivise NFT collections going forward as Funko themselves say "a Redemption Coin is a redeemable NFT that represents a collection achievement".
It's also important to note that any physical Funko that isn't claimed, will either not be printed or destroyed. The only way to get hold of these physicals is through this NFT project (or buying from an owner once released).
Now you know everything there is to know about Funko Digital Pop! NFTs!
I love retro and being at the cutting edge, always willing to give time and thought to anything and everything. Arodie is an extension of me, exploring all corners of Pop Culture collectibles.
