The first time I was introduced to Funko POP is when a friend of mine shared a photo of Eve and Wall-E together. At that moment, I fell in love with those cuties! So, I immediately liked FUNKO Facebook Page, searched about Funko POP (category of POPs available), joined local Funko POP Facebook Groups and lastly, searched for a website or fan page wherein I can buy them immediately using Paypal. The latter part was hard.
Finding an online store that sells the Funko POP you want and takes Paypal as a mode of payment was not easy. There are a lot of traders online but most of them prefer bank deposits. Well, I don’t blame them. A lot of scammers are using Paypal and the fact that you can’t use your cash immediately is something most people won’t prefer either.
Luckily, I found several sites that sell Funko POP and accepts Paypal as a mode of payment.
ABUBOT.PH
I got my first Funko POP from Abubot where I bought the regular Olaf at 550PHP and paid 150PHP for shipping. I used Paypal for settling the invoice in which everything was fast, awesome and cool. It took a few days before the package arrived.
NEWHAVENPH.COM (discontinued)
The second online store, where I got my Dancing Groot, Elsa, and Anna Funko POPs, is NewHavenPH. Though I was not able to buy the POPs through their online store, I got them via their Facebook Fan Page representative. So basically, I still bought it from them, right?
Anyway, I paid for the POPs and also the shipping fee using Paypal too. The transaction was smooth and fast. On the next day, they shipped my orders and after another day, I got my orders safely inside a box. Aside from that, I wasn't expecting that each POP I ordered comes with a free box protector. It was really an awesome surprise!
There are many other online stores (or Facebook Fan Page Stores) wherein you can order Funko POPs online using Paypal as a mode of payment here in the Philippines but since I don't have any experience with them yet, I am not including them here. I will just update this list once I’ll be able to buy Funko POPs from them.
Update: I have new Funko Pops. Will blog about them soon.
The image used is a recently taken photo. The boxes have visible damages due to ceiling leakage in our home. When I received them, they were in good condition except for Olaf. His nose poked through the plastic.

These are so adorable! We saw a lot of them one time at Fisher Mall. There were so many collectors, too!
ReplyDeleteFirst time to hear about this Funko Pop. These are cute but quite expensive for me to collect.
ReplyDeleteFunko Pop is new to me! Will check more of them. Looks like my kids will love their creations. ;-)
ReplyDeleteMy niece will surely adore this. And this is a great gift idea for a special occasion.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if my kids know these funko pop, but I sure don't. They haven't told me about these toys and we haven't seen any in shops.
ReplyDeleteMay ganito pala! Astigggg! :-)
ReplyDeleteThose are really funky looking toys. I haven't seen them in shops too.
ReplyDeleteFunko Pop is laso ne wto me. Gotta check the site to find out more. I wonder if there are Avengers too. I'll find it out.
ReplyDeletefirst time to hear about funko pop, while reading I was wondering kung ano yun. nung nakita ko sa pic, ah yun pala yun. they're cute but I don't collect it. good thing you can buy online through paypal.
ReplyDeleteIt is also my first time to read about Funko Pop. They look adorable..
ReplyDeleteMy daughters and I collect Funko Pop as well. I was contemplating on buying them online but I noticed that the online sellers charge a little more than Big Boy's. There is a wide selection in their store near us so that's where I buy.
ReplyDeletenice items! first time to hear about funko pop, they are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI'm not familiar with funko pop until I read your post. Nice to know.
ReplyDeletefirst time to hear bout this also. mga collection ni hubby is mga girl figures din
ReplyDeleteI've never heard about funko pop before but since this has something to do with paypal, I just like to share my "frustration" of some sort to their service. I requested to update my last name from single to my married last name and it literally took a month for them to update it. sigh! :sad:
ReplyDeleteHello Nilyn! Thanks for your comment.
ReplyDeleteFunko POP, Paypal and the online stores mentioned here are in no way associated with each other. I am a Funko POP collector who buys from these online stores using Paypal. I prefer Paypal because I am an online worker and my salary goes through them. :smile:
About your predicament, I am sorry to hear about it. I think that it would be easier for you to open a new Paypal account with your married name rather than waiting for them to change it. Well, that is only a suggestion. You can still opt to wait for them. ;-)
Nice collectibles. I can still remember when I was in grade school. Those were th days I love buying cartoon characters. But I'm already done with that kind of hobby. LOL
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time hearing about Funko POP and its good that they accept Paypal as their payment method. I used Paypal mostly on my online purchased. Well check the site soon.

ReplyDeleteWee! Thanks for this post and mentioning our store! Our Funko Pop collection is here: http://abubot.ph/collections/funko-pop
ReplyDeleteSo this is what it is called. I would love to have one if my fave character is available. I tend to bring my small figurines (at least 2) wherever I go. This will add to my collection. Thanks for sharing.
