Just heard about the Gold Hopper. Congrats to those at table 20 and good luck to the people trying to buy one to complete their ST collection. You're going to need it.

The Scoops Ahoy will hard enough to get as it is, the Gold Hopper will be much more difficult to acquire. Not impossible, but I would just forget those pops exist lol. Not easy being a completion-ist, so good luck to those seeking these out!

Makes me wonder if Table 20 in each section, was reserved for VIP attendees(vendor guests), or if it was just a truly random act based on the 20th anniversary. Honestly, does not really matter, just curious is all.

I think part of the value of the pop is the fact that Harbour was there. Well at least to me it would have made it extra special. Congrats to those lucky 40!

Oh good point!! I mean 20 years so table 20... I’m sure they knew table 20 was the number they were going to choose and could have sat whoever they wanted at those tables ... interesting!!

Easy to find a legit one, just ask them to pic their POP! with their Fundays badge that has their table number.

It is what it is in the world of collecting. There will always be an item that can pop up that will make it extremely difficult.

I wish I can go back in time and started my dbz pop collection early and be able to get Planet Arlia Vegeta.

Ill be satisfied with picking up the upcoming base Ken Griffey Jr. pop (wishing for that 24 gold).

That’s what I was thinking. That it may really be a 1/48 but with a 1/40 sticker. They may have given out a few extra or have some in a vault or archived.


Plus there was already one on ebay before any were given away at the event...

WTH - I wonder who all was given one. I would imagine there has to be a set of VIPs who were given Gold Hoppers too. But I don't know who would be given them...I would think def the celebs who were there but they wouldn't have put them on eBay.

I had a friend that was Fundays that bought it off someone who was at table 20 for $1k. If you ask me that wash great price since people are willing to pay boatloads for it.
