Where to start?

I want to start collecting hikari so where should I start?

Postby **MiniDeadpool** » Fri Dec 29, 2017 7:54 pm

I would say collect what you like. Do you have a favorite franchise?

Thats a good place to start then. Stranger things has several pops that are pretty common.

As for Marvel, I would say try to collect your favorite heroes or villains. The major ones usually have several variants including commons.

hmmm..... a Demogorgon hikari..... I would see me buying it.

I know you are probably asking characters you should start with, but my answer is still eBay. Just run a search for Funko Hikari and do some browsing. You'll find plenty of stuff and lots will be $20 or less too.

I would collect Hikaris again if they ever came out with a horror series. Even a mini hikari horror series would be welcomed, like a Freddy vs Jason 2 pack, Chucky & TIff 2 pack, Psycho & Mother 2 pack, etc

The Spider-Man Hikari are some of my favorite, can’t go wrong there if you’re looking for Marvel. Brett is right too, check eBay, you’ll find some great deals on probably one of the most under appreciated lines in all of toys

Cliché answer, but collect what you like!

I concur...horror is a must buy and they would look great in hikari form

Yes, definitely do a Hikari search on ebay or Amazon and see if anything catches your eye. Good luck!

They made some pretty good Iron Man Hikari's but just start with what you like. Personally, I'm into the Frankenberry Hikari's.

Postby **TriFeckTa** » Sat Jun 02, 2018 4:20 am

I started with the Iron Man Hikaris, they are really cool, i also collect most of the freddy mini hikaris as well and dabble in the retro freddy hikari. I recommend starting with a regular sized hikari and not a mini hikari.

Postby **supertoygiant** » Sat Jun 02, 2018 3:31 pm

Unfortunately, no Stranger Things hikari have been produced.

Make a big boy

Start with one that catches your eye, one from the franchise you love the most. I only have Groot hikari, as I LOVE Groot.

Postby **randig** » Tue Jun 05, 2018 12:29 pm

Once you figure out what you like there are some sites out there where you can get cheaper hikari. It all starts with what YOU want

Start with Batman and then try to go for the entire set.

I’m looking to get into Hikaris as well. Gonna start with The Voltron line myself. After looking at these for a while now there actually nice looking pieces. Hopefully tracking them down won’t be too much of an issue. Happy Hunting.

Starting is not difficult, controlling yourself is the problem.

Postby **Jjulsky** » Fri Feb 22, 2019 12:42 pm

I’m looking into starting a Hikari collection too...so many choices.

haha.. i feel like starting is the opposite of controlling. Cause once I start I cant stop.

You can never go wrong with collecting what you like

Barnes & Noble, Gamestop and Hot Topic are great places to find Hikaris. I always remember seeing them at toys r us but that store is no longer

Gamestop is a really good place to check. I've seen Hikari heavily discounted.

Since the 10" Demogorgon came out, I think Id be good without a hikari version.

Ours never have hikari anymore - seems the only place I ever see them is at Box Lunch and there aren't any of those near me
