Bonus question, what is one other item that you collected besides a Pop (maybe something else from Funko or any exclusive) that you still think back fondly on.

For me...

Pop: I love my collection Conan Pops and think that they were a perfect way to celebrate SDCC.

Other: During the Deadpool Hall H event they put in bathroom toilet covers that were Deadpool themed. My friends and I managed to get some and that is framed in my bathroom at home. Makes me laugh every time I see it.


So recently at every convention I've gone to I have bought the Freddy Funko that has a theme associated with the convention and I make it my mission to get it signed and personalized to me by Mike Becker..So far I have 4 signatures from 2022 SDCC/NYCC & 2023 SDCC/NYCC. They have quickly become some of my favorite pops in my collection...If I understood how to post images here I would show everyone because I'm super proud of it \:D/


I really like that idea. I met someone at NYCC and they had a Travel Freddy, they were getting it signed by everyone they met. I thought that was a really fun idea.


What a good idea! Are they allowing friends to sign it or just staff / actors like Mike to sign it?

I'd say probably the LE 1000 green Sour Patch Kid from ECCC 2019, for sentimental reasons outside & well before the con. Eventually ended up getting the proto through the trade a few years after.

An honorable mention worth noting -- at the Hall H panel at SDCC 2022 I got the Shang Chi POP! in my box and my partner brought it to LACC later that year to have Simu Liu sign it.

It is whoever has been part of their journey. I know Becker signed it on his last trip and he was very excited.

I think my first ever “con” pop was the summer convention exclusive unmasked cap from Barnes and noble in 2015. I remember doing my first ever shared store pop run that day and fell in love with the hunt lol

First to market Thirteenth Doctor Who!

We waited in line each day of the con for a chance to buy the LE pop, but each day they sold out before our place in line....

So I bought it on Ebay, but its still one of my favorite SDCC pops!

Pirates of the Caribbean Pop! from the ECCC 2021 Funko Virtual Con. Although it was virtual, it was the only time I’ve ever won the lottery to get into the Funko booth at a convention.

My blue chrome Batman from SDCC. I slept outside the convention center all night that year to press the magic button. Ended up getting Yokos iPad to press button on and got blessed with the first time slot of the day. Got the blue chrome and made some amazing funatic friends that day. All these years later many are still in my life from that day. I've been to thier baby showers and traveled to many of their funatic homes across the globe to visit. Raul and I hold this funko funatics family and all its members so close to out hearts We keep the memories and wish to make many more high five fantastic times making fun
Be well and blessed; g'journey and Keep Lovin' this Pop Life!

I did it on Thursday of the con. The line was capped so we did a few laps before we were able to catch them re-opening the line. I actually I thought the line moved pretty quickly. Since you designed your pop from your phone/the Funko site, they had a few workers pulling people out of the line to give them instructions for how to get to the website. It kept the line moving so you weren’t waiting for waiting around for every person to make all their selections and payment.

If you did it at the booth your pop automatically received 1) exclusive box art, not the generic Pop Yourself box, and 2) the Pop wears a VIP Deadpool lanyard. You also have the option to have the Pop hold a Temp Pad, which was the last exclusive.

Just for the box art would have been my reason to get! But would love the accessories of course!

My most cherished convention pop would have to be the Shang Chi from Funko's Hall H panel in '22. That one is special because my wife attended with me and we didn't know at the time but my daughter was technically present with us too lol
