All my personalities have to have the same pop is what I say to myself.

Every once in a while I’ll get a pop doubled or even tripled for out of box purposes or just because I like the character that much. I wonder why lol

I have been tempted to upgrade to a Con sticker from a shared, but mainly when I get an autographed pop I sell/trade the unsigned.

I have many times. I was always too lazy to make a PPG or Funko App list, so I have to try and remember if I bought a pop or not. I'm okay with dupes though, but my wife on the other hand lol

Several times, I had most of my collection on Funko app, but due to my laziness or trusting more on my memory.

One time I was so excited about a new Pop release that I told my GF and close friends that on my Birthday I got 4 of them, one of them as a Personal Gift, I still got them all because I like to keep the gifts.

When you have over 500 pops, it's bound to happen...especially if you're a completionist. You can't keep track of which ones you're missing. So many variations of one mold like Pokemon.

I think most of us happened if you had many Pops.

Some like many for not getting Funko or PPG updated, sometimes is best to have it twice at a release price and not have any, later buy it later at a resell price. One time happened that I was on a Con, and I hadn´t checked previously the Signing Events, that was my mistake, When I arrived saw that Erica Schroeder (Luffy English voice) was there, so I had to buy a Pop already had at home to make it sign.
