I am starting to do the same thing. I want to focus on Freddy and pick up some of the older Pops I never picked up when I first started collecting in 2014, and those Regular Show Pops are basically two months’ Pop budget each.

It really depends on which pops release. I mainly go for Star Wars related pops. Some months its like 4-5 and there will be 0. Sometimes I succumb to buying other themes like a nostalgic animated show I used to watch and such. Really hoping Funko creates more shows from Cartoon Network as pops.

It depends on whats released tbh. We mainly go after certain lines so some months can vary way more depending on if a wave comes out etc. Con months also make that number go up

Depends on the circumstances of each month. July and August for example were pretty productive on that end. lol September probably won't be so much what with saving up for my girl's birthday at the end of the month. Then I'll treat myself in October cause by November it's back to scrounging up pennies for Christmas. lol

Purely depends on what I want. Sometimes I go zero a month, and other times, like during con months, it's 10+.

Overall, I try to limit myself on purchases.

I would say probably 2-4 a month or so now. Been trying to limit what I collect cause I'm running out of shelf space, but I'm still a sucker for anything anime pretty much

Right now, not too many. I'm primarily a soda collector but my Pop count spikes around conventions. Probably 2-5 new Pops a month.

At the moment, maybe one. When I first started collecting, about 4-5.

We’ve slowed down pretty significantly. If a new like comes out, we’ll buy — but there haven’t been too many as of late. We maybe average 4 a year now — not including the con exclusives. Actually pre-ordered the Paddington Flocked and am waiting for that!

For me, at this stage of the game especially with how many I already on. I only get things I consider to be a must buy for my collection. If I was going to quantify, that can range from 1-10 pops a month. Just depends on what’s coming out and what I deem is a must buy

It all depends on what's coming out that month. On average, 10-15 a month. During Comic-Con months, 30 to 40 easy.
