Is there anyone that sells Box Protectors for Wacky Wobblers

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got a spring. Come inside and chat about Funko Wacky Wobblers (bobble heads, for the less sophisticated).

Is there anyone that sells Box Protectors for Wacky Wobblers

Postby allsportdvd » Sun Jun 07, 2015 7:00 am

Hi all.

I have a collection of over 200 Pops all with Box Protectors & now that I have a few Wacky Wobblers I was wondering if there is anyone producing them for Wobblers?

Thanks in advance

I thought I had a few in plastic protectors similar to the ones I have for my pops :) and sure enough I do. I'm going to email the individuals I purchased the wobblers from and see if they know. I'll keep you posted :thumbleft:

I'm actually trying to find someone to make me 50-100 replacement boxes for the Star Wars sized wobblers so I can use them as display cases eventually. Plus, those plastic boxes the first gen are prone to breaking. I've contacted the guy at retroprotection and he said he might make wobbler protectors but not yet. I would be more likely to purchase pop protector type wobbler cases rather than hard acrylic ones based on cost and shipability alone

I also know exactly what size I need :)

About 3-4 years ago I was able to find some pretty sturdy acrylic display cases on eBay that were a perfect fit for the newer-style bigger boxes.

I've been looking for quite a while to get some extras for the older style boxes. There was website that sold them, but they're no longer around.

Those ones on eBay are 4.6"x3.6"x6.4" if the dimentions they are true...no wobbler boxes are that size are they?

No, those dimensions wouldn't work.

I think this is the seller I bought them from, only the corners weren't beveled... and they advertised with a picture of a doll instead of a car:

There are at least 3 or four different sizes of single wobbler boxes used by Funko - not including two packs. Good luck!

Yeah, I noticed that too :-k not sure why they are so expensive to ship. The weight/size (laid flat) CAN'T really cost that much can it?

Michael's had some that fit a loose wobbler perfectly. I bought out the dozen that I found in my local store and never found them again. I tried a few other Michael's and apparently they discontinued them ](*,) They were acrylic and about $5-6 after their buy one, get one 5% off...
