Introducing Funko POP Grading & Encapsulation!

Elevate your collection with SWAU Funko POP Encapsulation and Grading! We are excited to announce the newest frontier of authentication!


The Next Level of Collecting

Introducing SWAU Authentication Funko Encapsulation and Grading service. Our UV Resistant, tamper-evident encapsulated holder offers complete protection for your treasured collectibles, while enhancing their visual appeal on display. Each encapsulated Funko is hermetically and sonically sealed, creating a unique collectible to be admired for years.

Harmony in Collecting

Our SWAU Label offers a classic appeal, encouraging the eye to focus on the piece itself, while simultaneously offering a visually clean label. The SWAU encapsulated holder is UV resistant and tamper-evident, ensuring investment security for generations. Each submission is photographed, recorded with all demographic info, and made available on our website via a scannable QR code or certification number. Additionally, our population report will be available within 120 days after launch to see how your piece compares to other collections.

Expert Analysis

Our Funko authentication team, combined with our autograph experts, bring you the best of both worlds: Funko and autograph authentication and grading. Each piece is reviewed by our experts and assigned an overall grade, which is visible on the front of each label. For autographed Funko Pops, an additional review is undertaken to verify the authenticity of the signature. Once complete, the piece is encapsulated with an Authentic Autograph label.

Standard Encapsulation & Grading (not autographed): $35
