That’s one I have been eyeing up too, it’s a great Pop.

Great buy!

Thanks!

I am so sad that I did not buy it earlier. Now it is so far out of reach I will never own it

i think most i ever spent was on planet arlia Vegeta and that was in 2014-2015 for $300

Most expensive purchase was $300 on Holographic Darth Vader maybe 5+ years ago.
Next expensive is my metallic dr doom $150ish, I want to say same year.
I had funko fever that year, regret not buying more tbh.

My biggest Funko purchase was on Freddy Funko as Macho Man. I was debating on whether or not to pull the trigger on spending the money but with it being impossible to get, I had to get him in my collection.

I've had this one since it came out, bought it at Barnes & Noble, and can't fathom why it's been less than $100 for years now.

The most I spent was $300 for a metallic dumbo

The convention was fun - my first time at the NY con, and I got to meet Andrew Rea - but I didn't get in to Fright Night so it was a bit of a regret.

Yeah cons can be pricey unfortunate you couldn’t get in

Wow, nice. Did you buy some of them or were you able to attend every one of his shows? I have nine - eight of which I got from attending, and one from winning a contest in 2020.

Never thought it would land where it's at. I was collecting everything I loved from my childhood and when I paid the price I didn't think it'd go much higher than what I paid for it.

I haven't bought it yet, but it's the SWC sticker Grand Admiral Thrawn. Hoping to meet someone to trade one of extra GITD Obiwan from SWC to pop for pop to avoid the cost.

Nothing over $1k, but all my biggest purchases were protos.

Postby **lcarus83** » Fri Feb 17, 2023 6:20 am

During SDCC 2015, I spent 90 on Unmasked Jason. I was sick I spent so much on a Pop. Glad I did it now.

Some other time in 2015, I spent 90 on the whole set of OG cereal monsters.

I can't recall ever spending anywhere near that on anything else in my collection. They were all bought at or near retail price.

I was able to attend most of the shows and if not luckily able to trade. I was super fortunate to snag a monoconan day 1

This past weekend, 250 for 1500 piece Freddy Optimus. Was hesitant but needed to go with my Bumblebee Freddy, but atleast they look great together now!

Awesome. I remember seeing they were handing out Monos on Twitter and ran to the location, but was apparently a few mins late. I ended up getting him on eBay for pretty cheap - the box wasn't perfect, but with a protector on you can't tell. Plus you don't see the back in my display so I don't mind.

I have debated a long time about getting a monoconan. But after the disaster it was trying to get him live, I can't bring myself to do it.

Yes we were quite committed to getting the whole set for Yugioh. Now it puts me in the contradictory position of hoping they make no more to keep our fully collected status intact while also being excited when they do preview new releases.

Most recent graily purchase was Freddy Funko as Yoda, i wish we continue to get more unique Freddy character selections from their licensee catalog!

If you can find a reasonable priced one, I'd say go for it.

The most I’ve spent on any Funko product (single or collective) has to be my OG Spastik Plastik collection. Love those figures, have all the POP!s too. Buying all the ones from Freaky Tiki Fundays off eBay cost me a pretty penny as well. Shocka Rocka is the best.
