Gold Hopper (40 count!!!)

[Legion Of Boom]

I was at table 19 #teamgoonies, 20 was right next to us and I know a few that we’re sitting at that table...it was completely random and extremely lucky that they were put at that table. Congrats to all that got one, such a great giveaway!

I’ve been to 5 straight Fundays, and they get better and better every year!!

[dexiesmom]

I know right?? I can't even imagine! Like Beyonce or something.

They're a company who does a lot of different exclusives at a markup. It's hilarious because their saying on every page you open at the bottom says this:



And this is what they do to "help collectors":




How anyone can give this garbage company money after these and all the funday stuff they have up for absolute ripoffs is beyond me. Scumbag company.

So they had at least 3 people at table 20. Wow...

I'm not surprised, it seems like Fundays also doubles as part of a thank you to distributors who have been with Funko for a while. I know that Fugitive toys also gets tickets every year it seems.

Just out of curiosity, if you had a 40pc Hopper, what would you sell it for, or try to trade for? His price is a bit high, but given limited nature of the piece, it isn't too unreasonable. Big Apple has been great when I used em.

Not speaking about the other exclusives only the 40 PC Hopper?

Personally, I would find a bigger ST fan then me and either do a trade for something I want that they might have, in a perfect world, at most a Shiva or something to that effect or value. If not, I would sell it to them for less than a fundays ticket. Like I said before, I'm different then most. It's why I wouldn't ever have a business, because I care more for helping collectors and making their day then making money.

I'm not saying everything I trade or sell is as good a deal as that, I look at this as something completely different. This could really make a person feel great about having said piece, where as other rare items I have don't come close, and mostly I just recoup cost on things I move. With that, I'd be happy making back some money on my ticket to the event.

It wouldn't be easy to part with for a minute, but I don't see it as a "must have," and I'm a completionist mostly. I would much, much, much rather have the Robin & Steve set. I'm also not into the gold pops after being disappointed with my Batman, Darkest Night Superman & Mega Man. Rather it go to someone who appreciates it more than I would. Anyways, that's my personal belief, and I know it's different.

[Jortega321]

I feel very sorry for completionists!

That’s nice of you. I’m not surprised at people trying to cash out on this pop. I’m a completionist and Stranger Things is one of the lines I am trying to get complete. With this gold Hopper it will stay incomplete. I am hoping that I can find someone who has it when I can drop a decent amount of cash for it.

[mmmrice]

I always wondered if people would consider the Freddy collabs part of the collection because there are a lot of old ones out there.

[Gonzo206]

There are also real ones posted for close to $8k.

I mean, I understand that its LE 40, but 8K seems so high a price.

8K?! 800 I can understand but 8k wow

Right?!?! I'm sure the asking price will go down eventually

[ImranC23]

I only had $600 cash on me at Fundays, really wish I brought more to try to get one of these off of someone. Stranger Things is the only line my mom collects and we both have a complete set until they dropped this Hopper. I won’t lie I was a little salty seeing people end up with multiples especially since we were at Table 23 but it was all good.

I think I’m good with not having him at this rate and I can tell myself that I won’t always get the things that I want. Was definitely a gut punch for a line with tons of comepltists though. Congrats to the people keeping him!

[esteban123]

This was an awesome surprise. I wish I was at a table 20 but sadly I was table 2

[Luxor]

Congrats to table 20.. that's Awesome

[peruwhite]

Tried to read the post but it’s a little erratic out there but someone explain to me why a common mold still on shelves painted all gold brings such excitement to the community? No hate, not a huge Stranger Things fan so I may just not connect but I’d love to know why. Just that 40pc sticker? The fact it’s something rebranded as “hard to get” or what? Talk to me Funko fam! Did Hopper fall in a batch of Nacho cheese?...

[Mr Yac]

yes, yes and possibly.

Gratz to take 20

Sticker definitely plays a part. Also because before this pop, ST was perhaps one of those lines where many collectors could stay completed without spending an insane amount.

this and this. before fundays we had a complete set and were working on a second. after fundays we were complete minus the 1/40 hopper. like most have said, it's a show very reminiscent of GoT in shear number of figures but much cheaper to accomplish. it's really the exclusivity and the fact that there are tons of completists out here that have made that figure exciting in my opinion. This is coming from someone who's actively part of the craziness and admits to it .

If they did a numbered piece for any of my main collecting wants, I'd always go after it even if I didn't like it because I've been conditioned that way. having complete lines of my favorite fandoms is always cool to see even if most are cheap.

[Kickinittt]

I could only imagine the excitement of when people heard table 20. Even watching the livestream made it feel like an insane release

I don’t think I ever screamed so hard in my life as when he said table 20! I was in disbelief the entire night and it was hard to focus on the rest of the event! Lol. The fact that David Harbour himself handed us the bag made it that much more sweet ^___^ unlike the few people who have cashed out and sold theirs though, I plan on keeping it forevvvvvver. :] Best. Fundays. Ever.

[Kickinittt]

I’ll admit I only read through half of these pages of comments, so I’m sorry if somebody already addressed this. But a lot of people all over the internet are saying this is just a common PAINTED gold... I even saw on eBay that someone has a reproduction (fake) sticker up for sale and 40 have sold... smh. The REAL figure of which I was insanely lucky enough to receive at Fundays, is NOT PAINTED. It is the same mold as the common, but it is fully cast in gold vinyl. If you see one that is painted, it’s fake. Beware!!!

I believe congratulations are in order! Glad that you got what is probably now THE grail of the collection!

Yeah, I get it too, it just sucks it's this crazy. But it's part of collecting anything really. I'm a completionist as well but look at these pieces as not needed, if that makes sense. I do hope you can grab one someday, and good luck on Robin and Steve as well! I'll for sure grab them someday.

[Ramennoodlez]

congrats to everyone that got this pop looked amazing

[jigsaw]

Yep table 15 myself. Most have been cool, Really cool that the actor was there. Funko does put on a show for us and I appreciate that. I also carried around two plates of food because I could .

lets just say i turned 2 drink coupons into 4 drink coupons

I had a buzz after one, so disappointing.. i ate 5 cookies :\

thats funny

That's awesome. I love it when people actually keep their collectibles instead of cashing out. As a collector, I want rare items in my collection.

[FerrisGuy3]

This Pop! is so amazing. Congrats to all that was able to receive one at Fundays, so jealous.

[angrykoalagear]

I can see how BAC was able to win three being that you can choose to create your party of ten and lucky to be selected to sit at a table #20. My wife and I were fortunate to be able to join a group that still needed a couple and ended up at the lucky Ghostbusters #20! This being our fifth Fundays, I would say it was a special night celebrating 20 years. Not going to lie, $2000 sounds nice, but we still have our Gold Hoppers that remain with our Freddy's and other limited pieces because of the Funko love!

[Pinspops]

I guess I'm never going to complete this set

bac wasn’t at a table 20. They just cashed out a couple people. I had some people ask me if it was for sale. I was offered Sdcc exclusives and cash. Didn’t take it.

[pop-inandout-9]

Ridiculous! how does that even happen

[dork_knight]

A friend of mine got one. It is pretty sweet, but still not a fan of spray gold/chrome paint pops.

I hope they make your avatar one day Or, I could make my own, I suppose :P

[FunkoFern]

I was able to see one earlier this week... Pretty cool. My Strangers Things collection will never be 100% complete, but thankful it was just a gold repaint vs a completely new character!

[FearlessPhotog]

Such an incredible piece, I wish i had been at table 20!

Lol likewise. But it seems like Vegeta gets all the attention. For Ultra Instinct Goku to be a common made me sad.

I have a feeling it's not all random haha.

[gokou105]

Table 20 for 20 years of Funko.

It was a big surprise, wasn’t expecting that. When David Harbour said table 20, I started yelling.
