This little man I believe.

Edit: Maybe he was the first exclusive? I think I got that confused at one point and regular batman was the first.

Yes, it was the clamshell Batman, known as "Funko Force 2.0" at the time.

as much as everyone loves batman... there were four exclusives at sdcc 2010, across 3 characters. so batman, batgirl and green lantern would all be correct answers, right? as to which one was actually "made" first, that's a question for the factory, i don't think there's a way for us to really know the answer to that.

The 3 funko force 2.0 for sdcc were the first 3 pops, technically the first pops are the ones in the clamshells.

There were only a few cases of each made in the clamshells, the rest were done in the box.

Cough: show
As egg-laying species pre-date the existence of chickens, thats an easy answer :D The theory of evolution states that species change over time via mutation and sexual reproduction. Since DNA can be modified only before birth, mutation must have taken place at conception or within an egg of a creature similar to a chicken, but not a chicken. These eggs then hatched into chickens that inbred to produce a living population.\ Really, both the chicken and the structure of its egg evolved simultaneously from birds that, while not of the same exact species, gradually became more and more like present-day chickens over time.

I would say batman is the oldest and longest made for Funko Pops, started with funko force clam and the metallic, and they havent stopped making variants since haha. Anyone know the current batman count?
