Condition
Fair to Poor. The item is out-of-box (OOB) and appears to be damaged; the head is detached or severely tilted at the neck joint, and there is visible scuffing and dirt accumulation.
Demand Level
Low (due to condition). Collectors of Funko Pops heavily favor 'New In Box' (NIB) items. Damaged loose figures have very little market appeal.

Estimated Retail Value
$10.00 - $12.00 (MSRP at time of release)
Comparable Sales

Description
Loose Funko Pop! figure of Simba from Disney's The Lion King, specifically the version featuring his 'Leaf Mane' from the 'I Just Can't Wait to Be King' sequence. Standard 3.75-inch scale.
Key Features
Highly recognizable Disney character; specifically the version from a popular musical sequence; stylized Funko aesthetic.
Authenticity Indicators
Distinctive Funko head/body proportions and eye style; manufacturing stamps usually located on the bottom of the feet (not visible in photo). High confidence that this is a genuine, albeit heavily played-with, item.
Flaws to Note
Missing original packaging (crucial for Funko value); significant structural damage at the neck/spring joint; visible surface scuffs; dirty/grime on white paint areas.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace, local yard sale, or Mercari 'As-Is' bundles.
Selling Tips
Do not list this individually as a flip. It is best used as a 'custom' base for artists who repaint figures, or bundled with other loose toys for a local sale. Clean the surface with a magic eraser carefully before trying to sell.
