Had BOTH the SDCC Black Rey Mysterio and HT Exclusive pink CM Punk in my hands at Hot Topic - but put them both back because I didn't collect WWE Pops at all, and I was a cheapo because I didn't wanna buy them without Hot Cash

El Chapulin and El Chavo when they first came out. I don’t know what I was thinking by passing them up considering how much I loved them as a kid (and as an adult? Yeah…def an adult).

Just looked back on my old Mercari messages from 2018 someone offered to sell me the OG Tails and He-Man for $160… I passed on it because he wouldn’t pay for shipping ](*,)

My worst mistake was going to lunch before I met up with a guy that was going to sell me the Freddy Funko Boba Fett. He had the GITD Darth Maul and sold it to the person before me. Worst lunch mistake ever! Still need that one.

Oh wow, this is a great topic, the regret buying and then the why didn’t I buy that one discussion is one that’s always coming to mind, I regret not buying funkos when I first attended Comic Con in the Early 2000s and saying those are cool but never purchasing any.

I have a lot of regrets!! All the Star Wars, Disney, and animes people try to sell me. I would pass because I already have one in my collection. However, sometimes my family member would ask me for a pop that people offered me. When I try to buy it, the price is INSANE!! Obi,dug,indie are some examples :(

I regret not buying the Samurai Jack 2-pack. I kept saying I'll pick it up. Then I'd pick it up when the price dropped....which never happened. We have all the others in our collection but that one now. :(
