Averted, Freddy Funko has four variants, the rarer ones differentiated with different colors. They all make up the same "Funko" team category. They originally would not show up in the same board as each other, but an update to the game for "board optimization" caused this to happen, thanks to how different they were in appearance.

This was before their debut in the game, where they did not even have a collection or "coming soon" bio filled out, only getting them during their event. Marty McFly has three different variants in-game. The Hazmat suit one is different enough to possibly appear with the unsuited version in-game.

The Universal Studio Monsters, General Mills characters, and Pets were used as board filler before they became playable characters. Weird Crossover: The game has an odd variety of characters, from Universal Studio Monsters to General Mills cereal mascots to the Care Bears. And they all can appear on the boards together! Collecting characters increases the Star Level, which extends the Bonus Increase of the game's score.Cuteness Proximity: Puss in Boots exploits it during his ability, turning some of the Pops on the board into Coin-earning Star-eyed Pops. Fun Fact: The massive sandwich Uncle Dan is holding could make about 7,300 normal-sized sub sandwiches! Image: Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade/NBCUniversal Some Pops are also exclusive to five-day-long events, which involves dropping items down or clearing tiles. Filling a meter with collected items nets exclusive characters, some of which can also be found in a higher-cost event box. After the event, some characters can return as non-event "filler" Pops for the event boxes for a chance to get them again, along with some special one-day events dedicated to a specific theme. Collecting all of a specific category of Pops nets rewards, from coins to exclusive characters.

Ambiguous Gender: Out of all the animals in the Pets collection, the German Shepard is the only one to be labeled with pronouns (masculine ones, in his case). This leaves the other pets with unknown genders. Personal Raincloud: Grumpy Bear’s ability creates one via his belly badge, which soaks the furthermost columns of the board, eliminating them.

Creating an L shape out of three-in-a-row and three-in-a-column will give a Bomb, which destroys a large squared-off area of characters. Cap: Character power levels are assigned from three Stars to six. Rarer characters have a higher Star count, and each Event will have two six-star chances, one as an Event prize and the other as an Event Box chance. Collecting all of the Stars won't stop the Pop from appearing in boxes, but will instead grant extra stars for the Star Level instead of leveling up the character's abilities.
