My first couple of years at SDCC I would have purchased a Stan Lee or Spider-Man Funko and have him sign it before he passed. It is my biggest regret.

I've previously said that one Pop I would go back and pick up was Gold Master Chief from Halo 4, the Blockbuster exclusive. It was right in front of me and I never thought to buy it because it was "too expensive" for me at the time.

Pops I never wished I sold were the completed Sonic series. I had all of them back in the day, and recently got back into them, therefore having to repurchase them. I remember one of the main reasons for selling them was that I was never going to be able to afford Super Shadow from E3 (I was only able to get GITD Chalice)..

It feels like so long ago now when I used to hate the idea of spending over $200 for a Pop. Now if there's a grail I want, I save to get it. No matter the price.

Every time I go to a con now, I spend time on the floor looking for any of the Regular Show Pops. I definitely plan on finishing this set, but it sure would have been nice to get them all for $50 total instead of the $2k+ it's going to cost now.

That’s why I haven’t gone for any of those. Too expensive and hard to find in good condition.

That’s going to be an eventful week. The pool is the icing on the cake IMO. If you have time, try to drive up to LA. Check out Universal Studios.

I relate to this. I was trying to keep my Pops in a small space, so when I ran out of room I would sell and I sold the complete Fifth Element set ](*,)
Please Funko make Taylor Swift Pops!

I once had a 2011 D23 Metallic Mickey that I sold. I think I just got rid of it because it didn't match my collection at the time, but I love if I still had it today.

SDCC 2023 Powerpuff Girls. I stood in line for several hours and was one of the first in line on Preview Night, but when I got to the Funko Booth I was turned away because I didn’t have a special lottery ticket.

My question is if you could go back in time and pick up that pop or not trade and sell a pop what would it be? It doesn't have to be a pop thats worth thousands or anything unobtainable it could be a personal grail.

Personally when I think about it I remember when I had the complete Wizard of Oz set, I ended up trading them to the states for a pop that was worth quite a bit at the time but i still think about the set.



If I could go probably will be freddy metallic ghost rider
