Probably my SDCC 12th Doctor, because it represents my first time making it to the Funko booth, and probably the last time I could just wander up to the booth and be able to get in line.

I'd go with 2012 SDCC Blue Cheshire Cat, b/c it was my first one from back in the day when Funko was a small booth and I walked right up and got it (with a few others, while regrettably leaving many on the shelf!)

It's a tie between my Mahna Mahna & Snowths three pack from SDCC 2012 and the Conan Joker Pop. I was not full on into collecting Funko, but was so excited to see this Muppets set brought to life. Conan Joker was a fun experience standing in line for the raffle, chatting with our fellow line mates. My ticket was a losing one, but DH pulled a winning ticket. That year, it was the one I wanted most, and I am so happy to have it.

It's also the SDCC Indiana Jones for me - that was the only year I have ever made it to the Funko booth after trying for the last four years (I wanted headless Ned and the 12th Doctor in his spacesuit soooo bad) and it's just an overall amazing Pop.

I think the runner up might be the NYCC Sleestak even though I haven't managed to get one. Just a great, well designed Pop.

I have picked up other con exclusives via trades, but sdcc 2017 was my first sdcc going to the funko booth, and Mr. Toad has to be my favorite from that trip because of the memories combined with the design.

Of all convention exclusives though, The metallic turtles are glorious.

With ECCC now behind us, I must say that it was one of the best Con experiences I have ever had. With a bunch of Funatic friends coming for the convention, it was also the first time I made an effort to be more Funko focused at a Con.

I managed to score all the exclusives I was hoping for and then some! The best part of the whole experience was being able to spend time with old friends and make new ones! It’s great to finally be able to put beautiful smiling faces to the names I have been following and commenting along with on the Boards. I can’t wait until SDCC when I get to see everyone again!

For me, the first Pop!s I ever got was from a Con almost 2 years ago: Stormtrooper Conan at SDCC 2016. It remains one my favorites and definitely my favorite from a Con. It started me on the path of collecting Funko and I am still great friends with the people I met at that Con while in line for Conan.

So what’s your favorite Con exclusive and why?


Duuuude! So happy to have met you at ECCC! Thank you for that assist with Giant Wight :)

I'm still going through withdrawals of the awesome 2 days I spent at Seattle. I might've OD'ed from all the FUN, if I was there the whole weekend. Hahaha...

If I were to pick a favorite con exclusive in my collection, I'd have to say it was SDCC Sloth from Goonies. He makes me happy every time I see him.

Looking forward to meeting up with you again at SDCC this summer, yo!

Yeah he was way better than the line security was in 2016. That year the security was taking bribes blatantly in front of people waiting to get into the afteronon Funko session. The big security guy was speaking in Spanish to those giving him the bribes but I knew what they were talking about. So guy got paid. I saw he wasn't there last year so no attempt to bribe so they can let you in the line. That year was a mess if you didn't get Funko upon opening.

Wasn't he there a few years in a row? I think he was.

I do remember that guy from 2016 too. He definitely wasn't as nice. Not sure I would hand him cash.

I think that was the only year I wasn't able to get in the booth. I can't remember if that was the year tickets were being randomly handed out neat the booth or the first year of the wrist bands when the guy stole a few off the table. They all blend together.
