The other day I was just looking in my pop closet (yes I have a closet where I put the pops I am not currently displaying) and I picked up one that didn't have a pop protector to check if it was worthy - and to my surprise it was more than worthy at a PPG of $125. Now this little guy is in a Pop Stack and is sitting prominently on my top shelf!!! :razz: :razz:

Awesome find one of my favorite pops……

My husband discovered he had the version of MoonKnight that was the wrong glow in the dark color (I think blue?)

It was really fun seeing his face when realized he had the rarer version haha.

I've experienced this so many times. However, it was more akin to those hidden pops that over time turned into priceless items.

I had the 2019 (I think) NYCC Exclusive Mandalorian on my desk at work for months before I realized it was going for 150 second hand. Decided to take it home after finding that out lol.

I need to go through all my boxes and check. There's a bunch from the last ~5 years I never added to my list, so chances are there's a few of them by now.
