Looking to Exit Wacky Wobblers (Star Wars) - Value, Selling?
I started collecting the Wacky Wobblers for Star Wars years ago (well after they became big collectibles), but I ended up getting nearly all of them (except the Clone Wars & Holiday ones). I believe I currently have 57 of them.
I became disappointed with them (well, Funko) when they stopped making the current style after wave 1 of The Force Awakens. In December 2016, actually the day Carrie Fisher passed away, I decided to start collecting Pop!s instead due to how many more characters there are, so looking to unload them to feed my Star Wars Pop! addiction.
Long story short, I'd like to sell off my entire Wacky Wobblers collection but had a few questions.
1. Not all of them are in the PPG database. Ones I have that aren't listed: Holo Darth Maul, Slave Leia (chrome base), Luke as Stormtrooper, R2-Q2, R2-R9, Shadow Stormtrooper. I've done a few searches, including eBay, and can't even find these on there for sale to get an estimated value. Anywhere else to look?
2. What are the chances of me selling this as a single collection vs. piecing them out? I know some aren't worth much and might be tough to unload. Anyone recommend a good place to try and sell the entire collection?

Selling the whole collection at once is gonna be hard. Most of them individually you would be lucky to get $10-$15 each. Some of the exclusives and chases you can get a bit more for but the demand for wobblers just isn't there anymore.
If you happen across a chase R2-Q2 or chase hollywood video blue Clone Trooper, I know a guy who might be interested:)

I thoughtit would be easier to sell the whole lot than piece them out, but so far, you are correct. I'm getting offers for 8-10 individual pieces, but then that leaves me with 40+ pieces no one will want as a collective. I just don't have the patience to try and sell things 1 at a time. I'd rather keep the whole lot, as I think it's a good collection.
However, I do not have the chases you're looking for. TBH when I started collecting these, I didn't know about chases or rarity of the exclusives. I just liked how they looked and wanted to whole set. Only now after researching their value and being more familiar with the Pops have I learned I have some rare pieces or that there are tons more chases out there that I didn't even know about.

Same here, if you have a list, I'd be interested in checking them out. Maybe you can post a picture of all of them?

Sounds like you might be able to post on these boards and sell quite a few, . I'd also be interested to see what you have...but I wouldn't want them all as I already have about 20.

I can't speak for Jordan but I am definitely the exact opposite of this guy:
But to answer your question, I can't prove they exist but that doesn't stop me from trying to find them. Good to hear from you Kev.

Re: Looking to Exit Wacky Wobblers (Star Wars) - Value, Selling?
I sold off the common version as a big lot a couple of years ago. I think it was $5.00 each. I was glad for the extra room. I kept the chase versions.

If I could get $10 for each common (as a lot), I know I'd have no problem selling the chases and exclusives and probably get around what I hoped for the lot. However, I just don't have the patience to sell these individually and I don't really need the money that badly right now.
In fact, I'm more tempted now to just put up another shelf in my office and put these all on display again since I'm finding out how rare some of these actually are. But I am a bit disappointed that I don't have the whole set when I thought I did (excluiding Clone Wars).

Re: Looking to Exit Wacky Wobblers (Star Wars) - Value, Selling?
Just sold my lot on ebay, so I guess my question of value has been answered. The rare items (like the Darth Maul and Slave Leia chase) would be around $40-50, and some of those clone troopers/shadow troopers would be around $30-40 if I total up what I received for the lot.
I'm officially now out of the wobblers game. Using the money to pay for all the autographs I've prepaid for on Pop!s at Star Wars Celebration and for the new Pop!s coming out.
Thanks again everyone. Back to the Pop! forum for me.
