For me it would have to be John wick chase variant.

I was pretty stoked to get my Gladiator Hulk signed by Greg Pak. Also buying Dr. Manhattan.

Awesome thread djwu!

I have several Pop!s in my collection that bring me happiness, but there are two that do give me the most joy.

The first one being my Emerald Chrome Freddy from HQ Grand Opening. I stood in line with Funatic friends I had met years prior at SDCC and it was my first ever Funko event. I remember being so amazed at how fun a day it was and it’s when I first met many of the Funatics I now call close friends today.

The second is actually a Pop! Two Pack, the Buff Rick and Summer ECCC 2017 Exclusive. It was the first exclusive I was able to get of my favorite line I collect. It also came by way of my first ever trade and happened locally. Little did I know that guy I traded with and his group of friends would all become my friends and guys I talk to almost every day about collecting and everything else in life. What’s up Busters? lol

Tough question but if I had to give an answer... i'd say my first Uglydoll chase pop (Wage). The moment I saw these pops I vowed to complete, at least, the Uglydoll chase collection (SDCC and non-SDCC). I am almost finished completing the chase set (only missing 3). It has been a long journey for sure (about 2-3 years now), but fun and I am very happy every time I get to add another one to the collection!

That’s really tough!! I honestly have so many that I look at and smile sooooo I can’t choose.

That's awesome! He's actually one of my faves too sitting at my work desk.

Sick.

He’s one of the few pops I wouldn’t sell

That's sweet! I love funatics helping each other out. And your wife has excellent taste!

I haven’t been able to get into the booth for years but I’ve been able to snag a few I really wanted because of awesome funatics

I love all my pops.. but I'd have to say that the ones that make me happiest are my very first one, Daenerys and the Sailor Moon collection. After I got my first one, I constantly wished for Sailor Moon. When they came out, I had to get every single one!!!

Mine would probably be The 10'' Pikachu because I love Pokémon since I was a kid.

Postby **KidMarvel** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 11:44 am

Aladdin - first wish movie moment! Saw it and fell in love immediately. Also the first pop my wife bought for me for our wedding anniversary

Postby **Wild_Flower85** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 11:46 am

Rainbow Brite! This was the first pop I asked for when I started collecting some years ago.

It might be because it's my most recent purchase but the Marty McFly Canadian Convention Exclusive makes me so happy. I was keeping an eye on ebay for it but wanted to see if anyone at WonderCon had it first. There was literally 1 on the floor at WonderCon. While having lunch, waiting for a friend, on a whim I decided to check OfferUp and see how much they were going for on there. Found one close to home, agreed on a price ($13 lower than the 1 on the floor), told him I couldn't pick up until Monday because I was at a Con. Turns out he was there as well, he brought it with him the next day and delivered it. I think the story behind how you get some rare Pop!s make you like them that much more.

Really great thread idea. A lot of them make me smile but the Mickey Mouse colorways are a big favorite of mine right now. I really like looking at the whole set.

Postby **Stu** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 12:35 pm

I would narrow mine down to three. Dyno-mutt and Blue Falcon. They were my favorite cartoons when I was a kid. The third would be Kitty Pryde and Lock-heed. Kitty might be my favorite X-Man ever. I was very happy that she was made, I would love an early 90s Shadowcat variant, but I digress.

Postby **lavery01** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 1:01 pm

Pretty much all of our pops make me happy when we get them, but the one that stands out the most is the Dez Bryant pop I gave to my brother for his birthday. He doesn’t collect pops but was very happy to have this one given to him. His smile made me smile....

Postby **franzsy0519** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 1:07 pm

Oh it's so hard to single out just one! I'd have to say it was one of the first Marvel Movie Moments, Hulkbuster Smashing Loki. That scene made me laugh so hard in the cinema, never imagined I would get to see it in Pop form!

Postby **HarryPOPter** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 1:50 pm

My favorite find was Daenerys with the red dragon error. I still like it better than the actual red/ green one that ended up not being the error. My favorite trade was getting GITD Ragnarok Thor. Also traded for a Frost Giant Loki which was pretty cool.

Chase Eleven - Stranger Things. I was obsessed with hunting for the chase. Ordered a bunch in hopes of getting it and eventually just bought it off ebay. In my baseball bat case til this day!

That's a good one! I was super tempted to get it too and felt like I needed to collect the Aladdin line once those new pops came out. Self control is a tough thing.

Nice! I've definitely gifted quite a few pops over the years to people who don't collect them. Especially the ones that are getting up there in price.. Even though they have no idea what it's worth, it's pretty cool to see them on their shelves.

Postby **leosalion** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 2:10 pm

My most recent one is definitely Jollybee. Gifted from another funatic during secret santa. Always went to Jollibee any chance I had growing up, and wanted one since pics first surfaced.

Postby **Playthatfunkomusic** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 2:20 pm

Indiana Jones! Had always felt a bit too pricey for me but at the start of the year I decided to put away 20 bucks a week until I had enough to get him and last month the stars lined up and gave me a 15% Ebay coupon and a great seller so that I could finally have my mint Indy for a reasonable price! Ever since getting it I just feel like I finally have what I want

Postby **Jade-Rex** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 3:01 pm

Freddy Flux Fission! The Flux line debuted when I didn't even know Fundays was a thing so I thought it would be a mainstay on my wishlist. I was really happy I was able to trade for him.

Postby **Xenomorph** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 3:24 pm

I couldn't narrow it down so I broke it up into 3 categories:

Pops I received as a gift: SDCC Xenomorph/Predator
Pop I got from the Funko Booth: SDCC Indiana Jones
Pop from Fundays: Freddy Kylo Ren

Postby **Yassiefay4** » Tue Apr 30, 2019 3:39 pm

It's hard to pick just one pop but there's something about just walking into our room of pops that just makes me happy. They are all special in their own way

I love how some people just have common pops for what made them happy.

The one Pop that makes me happy is Tony the Tiger. Brings back my childhood memories of eating the cereal and going to school. Simpler times!

That is awesome! Yeah figure we can use some positivity for sure! Those are really awesome pops and glad to see so many pops stand out for various reasons from meeting great friends to just great memories

Found tali earlier this year at a swap meet for 12 bucks. Box was still in good condition. I was one happy camper for sure. Also got robocop last year and judge dredd as well. One of the best moments for me.

Yeah I totally agree, running out of space to store/display pops and had to reign in the buying.

I feel the same way. I love walking into my Funko room and reliving so many memories. I typically buy pops from events that I am lucky to attend or pops of characters that I loved when I was younger. Each one is a little reminder/memory in its own way.
