The wait is over — the 2026 FIFA World Cup has kicked off across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and it’s already shaping up to be the biggest tournament in soccer history. With 48 teams, 104 matches, and the world’s greatest players battling it out on North American soil, there’s never been a better time to celebrate the beautiful game. And what better way to do it than with a World Cup 2026 Funko Pop of your favorite star on your shelf?
Whether you’re a lifelong collector or just catching World Cup fever for the first time, this guide breaks down the best soccer Funko Pops to grab right now, why they make the perfect souvenir, and how to make sure the ones you buy are 100% authentic.
Why World Cup 2026 Is a Once-in-a-Lifetime Moment for Collectors
This isn’t just another World Cup. For the first time ever, the tournament is being co-hosted by three nations and features an expanded 48-team format — meaning more countries, more legends, and more reasons to collect. For fans in the U.S., it’s a rare chance to experience the World Cup on home turf, with superstars like Lionel Messi and a new generation of talent lighting up the pitch.
Moments like these drive collectible demand through the roof. Limited-run figures tied to a historic event tend to sell out fast and become harder to find once the final whistle blows. Getting in early is how smart collectors stay ahead.

How to Spot an Authentic Funko Pop (and Avoid Fakes)
As collectibles get more popular, counterfeits unfortunately follow. Here’s how to protect your collection:
- Check the box quality: Authentic Pops have crisp printing, accurate colors, and a clean, sturdy box.
- Look at the figure’s paint: Real Funkos have clean lines with no smudges or sloppy detailing.
- Buy from licensed sellers: The single best way to guarantee authenticity is to buy from a trusted store that sources directly from authorized U.S. distributors.
That’s exactly what we do at Up-to-the-minute — every figure we sell is genuine and ships fast from the USA, so you never have to second-guess what you’re adding to your shelf.
How to Care for Your Funko Pop Collection
- Keep them out of direct sunlight to prevent the vinyl and box colors from fading.
- Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
- Decide your style: in-box collectors keep resale value higher, while out-of-box display lets the figures shine.
- Avoid humidity to keep boxes crisp and corner-perfect.
