Most cherished Con Pop

Postby **darqa** » Tue Apr 23, 2024 10:40 pm

SDCC Toucans because they remind me of each year of my attendance at SDCC. Each one has a unique story.

I 100% agree, though I do find myself sometimes forgetting which is from each year. I havent checked the box recently to see if there is something that would give it away.

My most cherished Con pop is my Freddy Funko SDCC Attendee pop fro hall H. It was my first Freddy Funko too.

Not my most valuable, but I still love the blue and white glow Duck Dodgers. They hit me right in the childhood.

Mine is Freddy as Yoda. I always try to get one SDCC (or Fundays) exclusive Star Wars pop each year to commemorate my attendance of SDCC for that year. This year will be 10.

I'm right there with ya. I know these aren't that popular to the mainstream but I do like collecting them as a souvenir and memory of attending the con.

This is like asking you to pick a favorite child. Which also explains why I haven't done any purging even though I ran out of space years ago lol

That is so cool. I never got the chance to meet Conan (def a bucket list thing for me), but did get James McCavoy to sign off on the Conan as It pop.

Going to Conan taping at SDCC has been some of my most memorable sdcc moments. He would always come outside the back of the theater for autographs after the shows. It was amazing for the few years it lasted. It was so popular you would think another talk show would want to fill the void.

Now that he has the new travel show on Max, I am hoping he figures out a way to still have a presence at SDCC. Even if it was just live tapings of his Podcast. I haven't heard anything for this year but maybe for next year.

That would be an excellent idea! Definitely not gonna happen, but it would be amazing. He loves his fans, and he would spend as long as it took to make sure everyone got a photo or auto or both!

Most cherished is hard, i really like them all. I'd say my Clown freddy i was able to trade for

Postby **trzadrake** » Sat Apr 27, 2024 9:13 pm

My most cherished is Freddy Funko as The Dude from fundays. I was very fortunate to attend and get it. No way I could afford it on the secondary market.

One of my favorite non-Funko merch purchases at SDCC was a talking KITT got where from Knight Rider. Except they weren't all KITT, some were KARR, the evil version of KITT. I got two and no one knew they were being released.

That is so cool. Funko's one panel at SDCC was super cool and we got some Pops at the end.

I've heard crazy stuff about waiting in the hall all night for those panels at SDCC. Not sure if I would do that but never know.

I wonder if you could set up one of those camping air mattresses. That would help an overnight a lot.

I got the pizza planet car at NYCC 2018 when I had just started really collecting and I remembered walking around with it trying to protect the box and everyone wanting to look at it

Walking out with a sweet exclusive is the closest I've ever felt to being a pretty girl in a bar.

Lol!

Definitely relatable during last year's SDCC with the Super Awaken Gon pop from Hunter x Hunter. It was also difficult to find a protector due to the unusual box size (people went as far as getting two soft protectors to cover the top and bottom lol

)

Just because I am a die hard Kevin Smith fan, it would either be the Iron Bob or the Bluntman and Chronic 2 pack

My most Cherished con pop is Shadow Illidan from 2013. WoW gives me too much nostalgia

Postby **Lakerfan75** » Mon Apr 29, 2024 8:39 pm

My most cherished pop is the Obi wan glow from Star Wars celebration. I was fortunate to have Jedi master vip and when I saw them in the store on the vip shopping event, I was shocked. I had originally purchased my ticket in 2019, and then the pandemic cancelled everything. Was fortunate they kept my ticket when it shifted to 2022, and lo and behold got my ultimate grail.

I’m pretty sure but not positive that my son has that pop. That was when he was heavy into WOW / Blizzard

Stormtrooper Conan is my most cherished con pop. Took me a bit to get.

Postby **Anhtrung05** » Mon Apr 29, 2024 9:58 pm

All of my Conan pops are my favorite!! I love that man! He is so talented. Every time I look at my Conan pops I go online and watch his old videos.

Postby **CAHLEB** » Mon Apr 29, 2024 10:01 pm

For now probably my Freddy as Wolverine (Brown Suit). I wish I would have gotten a yellow suit but brown works for now.

I had to get rid of quite a few items a while back and I was really bummed. My Hannibal from the tv show is one of the coolest ones I’ve got left. My Freddy Ted Lasso from Fundays last year is my favorite Pop I own at this point.

People have absolutely used them in the past. Now they do a wristband system so not as many people stay overnight anymore, they just come back the next day.
