I love this mission so much. I have been attending SDCC for a while now and I love the idea of adding a traditional type purchase.

Thanks so much! It's always fun to look at a pop and associate it with a vivid memory. And the con sticker is an helpful reminder of what year that memory came from lol

My favorite con pops are the new A Bugs Life ones that came out during Wondercon and SDCC I think. I have them displayed out of box on my desk.

2012 Sdcc Loki. First con and first pop for me ever! The good days when you could just walk up. I was in front of the booth and they said “ you want to purchase a pop you see?”

My favorite is a recent one. I was able to go to Wondercon and won the lottery to Mike’s signing. During the signing, he gave me a Hall H Freddy and signed that one as well. I was looking at getting that one, as I am a big SDCC fan, but didn’t get to attend the panel where they gave it away originally. Really cool for him to do that.

It is a really cool one and I remember not being able to go to the panel since it was on Sunday afternoon. So it all came together by finally getting it, this time at Wondercon.

Awesome that you got one too, were you at the panel that year? You heading to SDCC this year?

Superman and Batman 2 pack because of the memory behind it- I was able to take a guys spot in line and I bought so much they asked me if I wanted to buy that one and brought one out for me to buy. One of my best cons

Pop looks so nice , that must’ve been a fun one


I was there too! it was amazing and underrated! I got Shang Chi also!

It definitely flew under the rader, but afterwards once word got out, everyone wanted a Sunday afternoon Funko panel each year thereafter. The format of the show was great, and the guests were stellar.

I was fortunate enough to get one of these from the Hall H goodie box as well! The panel was a perfect way to end the convention.

100%. It really was the perfect ending to SDCC 2022.

My most cherished Con Pop really isnt a Con Pop per say but it given to me during SDCC by the FunMaker, my son and I was walking by one of the hotels near the convention center and Mike was there taking some bags out of his vehicle and he noticed I was wearing a Funko shirt and called me over and gave me A Conan Woody Funko Pop, so to me its more of how I obtained it.

I am hoping it is their plan going forward, I mean the amount of goodwill they got from it I think was off the charts. Last year was during the strike so no talent was really at SDCC, hoping it is easier for them this year to get people to show up.

I also have that batman with SDCC50 bag. The fact that the box itself was black with gold lettering makes it look so cool. Its definitely underrated right now.

The SDCC Fundays Glow in the Dark Anakin is our favorite. The Metallic Captain America was a close second until we found out the mishap of the regular release.
