The Story
Po first appeared in Kung Fu Panda, the DreamWorks Animation film released in 2008. A clumsy, noodle-loving giant panda who works in his father's noodle shop, Po is unexpectedly chosen as the Dragon Warrior, the kung fu master destined to protect the Valley of Peace. Voiced by Jack Black, he trains under Master Shifu alongside the Furious Five and grows from a bumbling fan of martial arts into a genuine hero, proving the film's core idea that there is no secret ingredient, the power was in him all along.
The franchise grew into four feature films and multiple series, with Po carrying the whole run as its center. VeVe's description leans on his identity as a Dragon Master and a Warrior of Black and White, a nod to both his panda coloring and the yin-yang balance of the kung fu world he protects. The collectible renders Po in that hero-in-training mode, expressive and ready, the look that carried the films.
VeVe tags this piece First Appearance, the platform's marker that a collectible is a character's genuine debut. Po made that debut on July 9, 2023, the first Kung Fu Panda subject to land on VeVe.
Edition Breakdown
| Variant | Rarity | Editions | Retail | Pull Odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Po | Uncommon | 3,888 | $40 | Single edition |
This is a single-tier release: one Po sculpt at 3,888 editions, all in circulation, with none withheld and none burned. There is no common version dragging on perceived value and no rarer chase pulling attention away. The 8 in the edition count is a nod to fortune, a fitting number for a martial-arts property.
Market Context
Po was a Season 6 drop at $40 retail with an 8.50% market fee, released through VeVe's waitlist system. At 3,888 editions this is a low print for a recognizable animated lead, and the single-tier structure keeps the supply simple to read. The collectible now lives on VeVe's Collect blockchain following the January 2026 migration, with in-app trading and the StackR marketplace live since April 2025.
The first status is permanent. However many Kung Fu Panda collectibles VeVe releases later, this July 2023 drop will always be the original Po on the platform.
Collector's Note
Kung Fu Panda is a rare animated-comedy license on VeVe, which gives Po a different flavor from the platform's superhero and vehicle drops. As a Universal-licensed piece he sits under the same hub as other franchise firsts like the first DeLorean Time Machine NFT from Back to the Future.
The single-tier structure works in Po's favor: no diluted common to compete with, a low 3,888 edition count, and a lead character with four films behind him. Copies are available on the VeVe secondary market, sometimes near or below the original $40 retail. New to VeVe? Grab $10 off your first purchase.
