Which Pops Do You Regret Not Buying?

[Cjcapone85]

Well, at opening, no, there was a line --but nothing crazy just busy. I would say, by the afternoon around 3pm, it was a walk-up, but they had plenty of stock through the weekend.

And it was at Funimations booth. Not Funko. Funko has been packed since I started going in 2014

Oh, yes. The main Funko booth started getting packed in 2013. 2012 was the last year you could get in throughout most of the day. It was cool back then, because they would give you a raffle ticket and you'd come back in the afternoon and could win a proto.

That’s awesome! I’ve never heard that. That would be a great score

That's such a neat story re: the raffle ticket and protos! I could listen to Comic-Con historical tidbits all day...

I agree!

[Moronguero747]

The one pop I regret in not getting is the Eddie from Strangers Things. I remember seeing a bunch of them in my Target and I didnt pick pick one up.

[Alanamaslama]

- Netflix Daredevil and Matt Murdock pops
- Funko Shop Symbiote Spider-Man

[1005_echo]

I regret not get the "Ready player one" series because I liked the book and movie was okay. Seems the pops didn't do well enough for another series.

[DiegoLo]

-Funko flux and t Shirt
-Roger Rabbit Wave

[Joker3346]

Right. Ow I have been regretting not getting the boy meets world pops. I know there is only two and they aren't much but it's one of those things where now they jumped a little and I'm cheap .

[MattyPHATty]

-Funko flux and t Shirt
-Roger Rabbit Wave

Roger Rabbit series was definitely sneaky how fast it shot up in value. I regret not getting them all before they skyrocketed

[funkopopfanatic]

I regret not buying the 2011 SDCC Ad icons Franken Berry & Boo Berry exclusives. I had them in my hand and put them back and I regret it so much

[Boszdrew]

Glow Spider-man Symbiote Suit
still kicking myself lmao

[funkopopfanatic]

Was the booth really walk-up in 2017? Wow, I would have guessed more like 2014 or 2015.

Simpler times, indeed.

2014 was mobbed! I think 2013 was the last year it was a walk in booth and I’m glad they stopped that as there’d be damaged boxes everywhere from people picking them up and putting them back without care. Back in 2011 and 2012 you could literally just walk up into the booth with no wait and pick what whatever you wanted. Crazy to think about it tbh

It’s hard to even picture that. It’s only been a mob since I started collecting them in ‘14. To think about just walking up…that is a dream

It feels like one haha! I have core memories of picking up Darth maul and putting him back because I wasn’t a big Star Wars fan yet. Ugh if only! It’s amazing to see how much Funko has grown. I think 2014 was also the last truly “exclusive” year for funko at SDCC since it was before they started the shared exclusives.

[funkopopfanatic]

This is easy for me. I regret not getting the Ochaco from SDCC 2017. I hadn’t watched MHA yet and had no idea who she was.

Ugh that sucks! I only bought her because they weren’t selling at Funimation and they were offering her & I think All Mighty for $20 on Sunday. Crazy to think about!

[Cjcapone85]

Gotta love hindsight! Instead, I’m just thinking about what could have been

That sounds about right. I believe they’ve had shared since I’ve been going to SDCC

[Ryko87]

I regret not picking up tenya. I remember seeing him in stores but I did not collect funko at the time and I was a MHA fan at the time. I own him now but back then I could have had him for retail rather then his increased price.

This exact thing happened to me. I saw him and was like, eh, I'll be back later and pick it up. Boy was I wrong.

Do that some times when reflecting on some of the trades/not purchasing items but in that boat now of not dwelling on it

[D4nnym4n123]

Shared sticker brook from hot topic -_- for 20$

Yeah. Not like I’m upset or anything. You can’t let small things bother you.

[mattytreks]

I was at SDCC 2013 and really regret not picking up the Droids Boba Fett. That would be a much more expensive acquisition, nowadays...

[inglip]

I seen a few of them at 2nd and Charles recently; you might wanna check them if there's one near you.

LOL yeah that was a huge mistake

[S_E_R_G_I_O]

I regret not buy buzz lightyear freddy back when it was cheap.

[ascaryman]

The Bride from Kill Bill! Knew it was hard to find when I found it and then sure enough it was vaulted shortly after passing on it.

[tompate122]

Some of the earlier Freddy pops when they were considerably cheaper than they are now.

[Xenomorph]

Should have gotten the Ghostbusters Freddys but they were pretty expensive back in 2014 and was just getting into collecting then. So the thought of spending a couple hundred dollars on each one was hard to stomach.

[Stat32111]

Some of the earlier Freddy pops when they were considerably cheaper than they are now.

Tell me about it.. I could’ve gotten the ninja turtles Freddie’s for not even 10% of what they’re worth now

[marceltaboada]

Andrew Wiggins for $100 Fugitive had a couple in 2018 but I was never too sure about a TWolves anything selling for a lot. Boy was I wrong.

[plumb102]

I'm SO angry for not jumping on all the MYTH line..
I've fortunately been able to acquire most, but I remember the Funjo Shop exclusive ones were the "Drop of the Day" or week when they used to do that.

[Tynett]

All of the Regular Show Pops - especially Benson!

[JJLecaros]

all the other WWE pops that came out with AJ lee at the wrestle mania super store. chase penguin and riddlers at hot topic for $5 when Funko first started to sell stuff there.

[x3r0]

All of the Regular Show Pops - especially Benson!

I feel this. Especially when it first released. It was so hard to find a mint box of him.

When I sat it down. A collector behind me immediately took it.

Years went by.. then I saw him again at a local mom and pop thrift store for $15 and yeah. Box has battle damaged. But now I can say I do own him finally.

[Tynett]

He is still one of the more unique pops they have made I've never seen one since

[rexflexall]

The 1st wave of DC bobblehead pops that hit Target, some were even on clearance!

[ThePowerOfGus]

My regret is the original Masters of the Universe set. I remember looking at them and not wanting to drop the $10 each. I only got Skeletor. Now I kinda feel like a big dummy. Oh, well!

[EPogue6]

I regret not buying Riker, Data & Troi from the Star Trek TNG line the most.

[Chernabog]

Probably just some old disney pops that go for way too much now

[ComicsZombie]

Themberchaud. Lol, I was waiting on it to combine items but they sold out quick.
