A Heisenberg 2015 summer convention exclusive. We gave it to a "friend" as a present that we no longer speak to. Come to find out they were not a good person which makes it even worse.

It’s a great POP, I want to track one down someday, so I get it. Did you get something good in return at least?

I got Freddy Aquaman in return. Don't get me wrong, I love it and would never part with it, but I wish I could still have both. Is that reasonable, nope, but emotional connections to some pops usually aren't, haha.

My biggest regret is actually really recent, and it's a trade I didn't make! Was offered a Star Trek NFT Freddy in trade for my Danny Phantom Freddy, and I took too long thinking about it. When I went to make the trade, ST Freddy was gone!

Trading just generally causes a lot of angst for us, doesn't it? lol

That Sith Trooper was supposed to be an early release so at the time, it that looked like a very fair trade. Who knew it would end up being a rare SDCC exclusive???

Surprisingly … none. I donated over 300 old pieces and they are now grails in someone else’s hands.

I’m trying to rid of 300 more.

Kinda hard to do when a lot of them has a meaning to it. More so attached memories.

It wasn't a trade, but I absolutely regretted selling my Thrawn POP not too long after I got it. Thankfully, I was able to buy a different one off of EBay before prices went out of control.

Oof, I feel a little nauseous for you.

I remember having an opportunity to buy Freddy Ironman for $500, 5-6 years ago. I didn't and still feel a bit pukey about it.

I’ve been fortunate enough to say “none”. All trades I’ve made, I’ve made with people I’d consider friends. It’s all good.

When I moved into my "to-die-in-home" 7 years ago, I had to thin the collection to fit in my den, so I let go of all my PoP (except for the Hucks, of course). I sure do wish I had held on to these--all chase and special pieces. They sure were purrrty. #-o

It’s a great feeling. It may feel off.. emotionally. But once you know you know — I donated mine to an obscure location and I know the area a lot of individuals will benefit from the 300 pieces.

I hope they handled it well when shelving or behind the counter.

I for sure have a few, but my ultimate biggest trade regret is my brother trading his Big Boy Freddy to someone for a Tiki while I was line getting a drink at Fundays. I'm still mad at him for that.
