Common questions about the Darth Vader Pop! Die-Cast Star Wars from Funko (2022).
The answers below are provided by contributors and may not be fully accurate. Verify important details before relying on them.
This figure is not considered rare, as it was part of a standard mass-produced release line rather than a limited edition. The SKU 02 indicates it was one of the first figures in the series, which were widely distributed to major retailers in 2022. Collectors typically find these figures readily available on the secondary market at stable prices.
Funko does not publish official retail prices for specific die-cast SKUs, and market value depends heavily on condition and whether the item is still sealed in its original packaging. As a 2022 release, this figure is not considered a rare vintage item, so its value typically ranges from $15 to $30 for sealed units on the secondary market. Unboxed figures generally hold significantly less value, often selling for under $10 unless they are part of a specific limited edition series.
This item is not a standard Funko product, as Funko does not produce die-cast figures under the "Pop!" brand name. The Pop! line consists exclusively of vinyl figures with plastic heads, while Funko's metal collectibles are sold under the "Funko Metal" or "Funko Pop! Metal" branding. You should verify the packaging and base markings, as this listing likely describes a third-party metal statue or a counterfeit item.

The Darth Vader Pop! Die-Cast Star Wars figure is no longer in print. Funko has discontinued this specific release, so it is not available to buy new from official retailers. Collectors must seek out used copies through secondary markets like eBay or Mercari.
Examine the die-cast metal body for dents, scratches, or paint chips, paying close attention to the helmet and chest plate. Inspect the plastic base and joints for cracks, stress marks, or separation from the metal body. Check the original packaging for box wear, corner damage, or label condition, as this significantly impacts value for graded items. Refer to standard Funko grading scales or professional services like PSA or Beckett for formal condition assessments.
