My first wobblers!!

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got a spring. Come inside and chat about Funko Wacky Wobblers (bobble heads, for the less sophisticated).

Hi Betty,
I've never spoken with you on here, but wanted to let you know I am glad to see you posting and that you are recovering. Hopefully getting back on the boards lifts your spirits and even aids in your recovery. Look forward to seeing your posts!

As for me and wobblers, I LOVE them, but only have 2 right now. Wonder Woman and Snow Miser. Definitely wanting to add more, but the older ones, not the new style.

Truth2500 wrote:So I got my first wacky wobblers today. Well technically mini. I got the kiss 4pack and couldn't be more excited. As I was looking through the forums I think I am starting to like these a little more than pops. I really want to start collecting the cars. Any advice for a new collector of these guys. I know they're generally much older than pops so condition of boxes is more worn but should I worry about box condition as much. Is ppg an accurate value assessment. I don't wanna end up paying too much if I don't have to (obviously). Any tips for finding some of these older pieces, I live in Boston proper so knick knack shops aren't as common. But any tips, advice, or information on collecting wobblers in general is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!!

Edit. I plan on displaying out of box.


Congrats! I have been collecting Funko since 1999 and my house is filled with it. Wacky Wobblers are my favorite line they ever did. I would not use the PPG to price wobblers. The PPG is the Pop Price Guide, they know very little about Wobblers. Search Ebay for the pieces you want. The Bobble-Cars are getting harder to find, but if you are going to display them out of the box, then you should be okay. Mint condition older Funko boxes are pretty HTF at this point and everybody has a different version of "mint". Just collect what you like and you will be a happy funko collector!


Great great tips my first wobbler is the big boy love the tips!!I'm a wobbler fan

Ah yes the real first world problem to display in box or out of box that is a great question lol. I usually display in box for the ones on the shelves and out of box on my desk lol. Let us know what you decide.

My first Wacky Wobbler was a SDCC 1966 Batman, Then the newer style wacky wobblers of Batman, But I love the original style of them. I honestly thought about buying the itchy and scratchy ones from a local comic book shop, but then that means I’ll collect another line. :eek:

I in general like a lot of Funkos older lines now lol
