The Sydney Bristow (School Girl) Pop! Television figure generally retails for $10 to $15 when new in box. Used copies in good condition typically sell for $5 to $8 depending on box wear.

Authentication relies on verifying the SKU 531 and 2017 release date against the official Funko catalog, as this specific School Girl variant was part of the initial *The Vampire Diaries* wave. Examine the vinyl for consistent molding, sharp paint application, and the correct "School Girl" costume details, including the plaid skirt and blazer, which distinguish it from the standard Sydney Bristow figure. Check the base for a clear, centered stamp that reads "Funko" along with the copyright year, and ensure the box matches the official 2017 design with the correct character art and barcode. If the figure lacks these specific manufacturing markers or shows signs of third-party reproduction, it is likely counterfeit.
