I am just now discovering this thread and all the amazing pictures and history you guys have posted. There's some really cool stuff here.

Bobblehead - what's the background on the cereal and circus cookie boxes? Those are amazing!!! The box design is stunning, as is the cute/colorful copy. I must know more :)


Those were box of fun boxes from back in the earlier years of FunDay's :-) included a t-shirt and a wobbler in the box :-)

My oddest piece has to the big Willy wacky wobbler. I got it when I worked at GameStop about 10 years ago. It was way before I got in to funko!

One of my first Funko purchases (honestly did not know it was made by Funko) was Carlos and Baby talking bobble head from the Hangover Movie. I remember buying it from Urban Outfitters for like $5. I still have it today and it still talks lol

I am so in awe over those clocks posted earlier!!!! I guess my 'oddest' piece is one of the Bonedaddy mini wobblers from 2005. It's only odd because it's the only one I have like it in my collection haha.

For Freddy Friday, a never released Freddy Funko neon clock that would have been the 3rd large clock to be released by Funko in the mid-2000's; only 2 samples were ever made. Another full sized clock...it's roughly 14" in diameter :compress:

Well these are at least odd to me or I haven't seen them around much, but I have a Spider-Man Bobble Breeze car air freshner that I got years and years ago in high school before I even started collecting anything Funko. I also have a Hula girl one I used in my car, not sure where she is at though. Then I have a set of these Batman lamps in my storage unit that they made at one point (along with a few star wars lamps).

Wow, a citrus scented Spider-Man, very cool! I don't see them around much either. I learned about these when I saw a Rat Fink one in person and was pretty surprised that Funko made air fresheners! :compress:

You just never know what might end up being a strange piece of Funko history down the road. A prize coffin thrown into the crowd at fright night, a teams placemat from Fundays 2017, a stamped ticket from the HQ Grand opening, or even a Funko Funkast button or LE pin given away at the Funko Disney Treasures booth at D23.

I save it all. Because they are all little treasures that have fond memories attached to them, and who knows, maybe someday I can pass them on to other collectors to appreciate as an Odd Piece of Funko History.
