In a world where collectibles keep getting bigger, brighter, and bolder, Funko decided to flip the script — by going smaller. Much smaller. Enter Bitty Pops, the adorably tiny version of the classic Funko Pop! vinyl figures that have dominated shelves (and hearts) for years.

They might be pocket-sized, but don’t let their stature fool you — Bitty Pops have become one of the most exciting and fast-growing trends in the collectibles world. From mystery mini-packs to limited edition chases, these micro versions of fan-favourite characters are proof that good things really do come in small packages.

So, what exactly are Bitty Pops — and why are collectors (and casual fans alike) completely obsessed with them? Let’s take a closer look at the newest phenomenon you can find right here at Infinity Collectables.


🧩 The Origins: From Pop! Vinyls to Pocket-Sized Perfection

Funko has long been known for its Pop! Vinyl figures — those instantly recognisable, big-headed designs based on everything from Marvel and Disney to Harry Potter and Stranger Things.

But in 2023, Funko introduced Bitty Pops, a new micro-collectible line designed to capture all the fun of full-size Pops in a miniature 2.3 cm format.

Each tiny pop comes housed in its own tiny acrylic case, complete with display stand and removable lid — a perfect nod to serious collectors who love organisation and presentation.

The sets usually come in packs of four, featuring three visible characters and one mystery Bitty Pop hidden inside a blind box compartment. That surprise element instantly sparked a collecting craze, as fans scrambled to complete sets and hunt down rare “chase” editions.


🔍 The Appeal: Why Bitty Pops Are So Addictive

There’s something incredibly satisfying about collecting something so small yet so perfectly detailed. Each Bitty Pop captures the look, expression, and design of its larger counterpart — just scaled down with uncanny precision.

Here’s why they have exploded in popularity:

1. They’re Cute, Compact, and Collectable

Funko already nailed the “adorable but cool” aesthetic, and Bitty Pops turn that dial up to eleven. They’re irresistibly cute, highly displayable, and don’t take up much space — a win for collectors who are running out of room on their shelves.

2. The Mystery Element

Each pack contains a mystery figure, making every unboxing feel like an event. That moment of suspense taps into the same thrill that’s made mystery boxes and blind bags so popular across the toy world (and at Infinity Collectables!).

3. Nostalgia Meets Novelty

These mini pops are perfect for both new fans and long-time collectors. If you grew up surrounded by Pop! Vinyl's, these mini versions feel like nostalgic collectibles with a twist — a new way to rediscover your favourites.

4. Display Perfection

The little acrylic boxes click together and stack neatly, allowing collectors to build display towers or dioramas. Many fans have started customising shelves or cases specifically for their Bitty Pops — turning them into mini works of art.


🎬 The Most Popular Bitty Pop Series

Funko wasted no time expanding the Pop universe. From Disney to Star Wars, there’s something for everyone — and the collections keep growing.

Here are some of the most popular sets fans are snapping up right now:

🌟 Disney Pops

From Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck to Stitch and Winnie the Pooh, Disney Bitty Pops are some of the most beloved. Their bright colours and recognisable faces make them perfect for younger collectors and lifelong Disney fans alike.

🪄 Harry Potter Pops

The Wizarding World range features tiny versions of Harry, Hermione, Ron, Dumbledore, and even Voldemort. Chase variants (like characters in alternate outfits or holding magical items) make these packs especially sought after.

🌌 Star Wars Pops

The galaxy far, far away has never looked this small — or this cute. Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Grogu, and Stormtroopers are just a few of the fan favourites available. The Star Wars line even features exclusive chase editions that have become must-haves for serious Funko fans.

🦇 DC & Marvel Pops

Superheroes are the backbone of Funko’s empire, so it’s no surprise that the DC and Marvel Bitty Pop lines are huge. Expect everything from Batman and Wonder Woman to Spider-Man and Iron Man in fun, micro form.

🧁 Holiday & Seasonal Pops

Funko has begun releasing themed collections — think Halloween exclusives, Christmas editions, and limited-time runs. These are especially collectible because they often disappear fast and don’t return the next year.


🛍️ The Bitty Pop Experience at Infinity Collectables

At Infinity Collectables, we’ve seen the excitement first-hand. Bitty Pops have quickly become one of our most popular new arrivals, and it’s easy to see why.

Collectors love them for:

  • Their affordable price point (making them great gifts or starter collectibles).

  • Their mystery surprise element.

  • The sheer variety of fandoms available — from nostalgic classics to trending franchises.

We stock an ever-growing range of Bitty Pops in the UK, including limited edition bundles, holiday sets, and display accessories to help collectors show off their growing armies of tiny Pops.

And because we’re all about the joy of collecting, our mystery boxes often include themed Bitty Pops alongside other surprises — perfect for fans who want that same thrill of the unknown that’s taken over TikTok and YouTube unboxings.


📈 Why Bitty Pops Are More Than Just Toys

Bitty Pops have crossed the line between toy and art collectible. Their combination of design, rarity, and emotional connection puts them in the same space as collectible pins, mini figures, and even trading cards.

Funko’s decision to introduce limited editions and chase variants has turned these into genuine collector’s items — with resale markets growing fast. Some rare Bitty Pops (like exclusive con releases or vaulted designs) have already started fetching high prices online.

Beyond their monetary value, though, Bitty Pops represent something deeper: the way modern collectors engage with pop culture. People aren’t just buying figures — they’re curating fandoms, building displays, and expressing personality through the characters they choose to collect.

It’s no longer just about what you own — it’s about what those tiny figures say about you.


🌍 Tiny Figures, Big Trend

From social media unboxings to TikTok ASMR stacking videos, Bitty Pops are taking the online collector community by storm. Their pocket-friendly size makes them perfect for viral content — quick, fun, and highly visual.

Collectors love sharing side-by-side comparisons with their full-sized Pops, and showcasing just how much detail Funko managed to squeeze into such a small space.

That combination of surprise, design, and shareability is exactly why Bitty Pops are becoming one of the most talked-about collectibles of 2025.


✨ The Infinity Collectables Takeaway

At Infinity Collectables, we believe collecting should always be about joy, curiosity, and connection.

Whether you’re a lifelong Funko fan or just starting your collecting journey, these miniature marvels are the perfect way to expand your fandom without taking up every inch of shelf space.
