The Incredible Hulk was my first Hikari and then I bought a few of the Megazord Hikari and Transformers Hikari. I have sold off the Transformers and a few of the Megazord Hikari but still have my GITD version of Megazord and all of my Hulk Hikaris.

I just recently starting buying more Hikaris! My first purchase was a Batman Black with glitter. My wife bought it for me after I started wanting to collect the line. Now we are both addicted! lol

Was able to pick up my first and only (so far) recently too; it was Rainbow Dash. Just the original, but it's still pretty nice looking. I like it!

My first Hikari was the xs iron man 2 pack. It was on super sale for $5 on amazon so I figured why not check it out in person... they were really cool! Now I own 3 retro Freddy Hikari too

My first Hikari...I grabbed at the Funko HQ. It was one of those "cleaning out the warehouse" days. To my surprise I walked in and saw one ECCC LE250 Jade Megazord. Funny thing was my luck got even better from there! Upon ringing it up, it wasn't loaded into the system so I got it at a cheaper retail price than what it should have been.

Normally this would have been enough to make it a major find of the year, but a couple days later it got even better. While chatting with somebody in a local goup, he asked me what number mine was. I hadn't even thought about opening it up to see. When I did I was floored that it was actually #1 of 250. Number ONE...I felt like this was something that shoudln't have been put out for sale. Like somebody set #1 aside before ECCC and forgot about it, only for it to be sent to the warehouse and stored away like the Arc of the Covenant at the end of Raiders.

My first Hikari was likely the best Hikari I'll ever get....it's all downhill from there! haha :)

My first - and I bet a lot of people are the same - was the BB-8 from Smuggler's Bounty. Ended up giving to a buddy of mine who was trying to get all of the colors.
Please Funko make Taylor Swift Pops!
