Can't go wrong with Marvel! You won't be too far behind if you are trying to complete a set.

It all depends on what you like. With us we collect all the starwars, random Disney, all exclusives and random others. The horror movie line has always been my fav

I asked this same question a few days ago, So while at Barnes and Noble I picked up a Green Lantern and Sinestro, then yesterday I picked up 7 more POP! 5 Disney and 2 DC, then today I got a Batman Chase in the mail (Thanks Eddie), then went out and bought the Avengers set, so 5 Marvel. I say all this to say...

It dosn't matter which one you pick up first... You WILL buy them all! Once I started I couldn't stop! My advice, unless you have genre in mind, buy whatever is cheap!!

Welcome to the POP! Fever!

Welcome.I would buy the ones that you like and interest you the most.That's what I do,I only buy the ones I like and the rest that I don't,everyone else can collect those.I mainly stick to DC,Marvel,Kiss,Movies,Toy Story,The Incredibles,and Star Wars ones.But if you're a fan of The Muppets,they have a real nice set of 8 coming out,I know that's one set I might get.But like most everyone said,it's personal preference. :)

Any collection without a V pop would be incomplete IMO.

Buy whatever floats your boat. Personally, I cherry pick the lines so I don't have to worry about finding places to put everything.

Really looking forward to Planet of the Apes.

I love Marvel so I started with those. Now that I have all them (or at least they are all on the way) I have been just picking up ones tht I think look cool when I see them!

I do have a few specifics I would like but they are all awesome. So like everyone else's has said just go with what ya like!

I like the Disney, Star Wars, coming up Muppets, and like Bear said the V one as well as the Sci-Fi ones. Some will be much easier to get than others so just keep your eyes open for great deals.

Once you get one set you'll want the other so just grab what you can find

I'd say get all your personal favorite characters first. Then, figure out from there which set you want to complete.

I guess it depends on your personality, are you a completest? Do you like anything speficic? Disney? Marvel? DC? Movies? If you just like the way they look I would suggest going to your Disney Stores, they have some Series 1 and Series 2 on clearance for $6.99, thats a good way to start your collection.

A regular pop is just normal, a chase has a chase sticker and either glows (freddy, jason, myers, gremlin, all kiss) glow, or metallic paint (dc guys). Then you have sdcc/nycc type stuff, they are show exclusives, they have different stickers on the package and also can have metallic paint, glow, or flocked (fur look)
