Funmaker Mike Coin

[DietPops]

I don’t know where to house this so I’m placing it here. Please let me know if there is a preferred location.

At Fundays this year, I received a Funmaker Mike coin from Mike himself. I don’t think I’ve ever received a more meaningful item during my nearly decade of attending comic-cons across the country.

To be a part of Mike’s farewell show was an emotional experience for all of us, and to receive a momento from the man himself, from a moment of appreciation, will stay with me forever.

Thanks to Mike and the Funko community for making such unforgettable memories!

Very awesome momento from Mike, I had wished I had stayed a little later for a chance at one. I've been following Mike to have a chance at something cool from him, and it makes it even harder to get now that he's bid his farewell. Congrats on the awesome piece

[teflonkeys]

So cool that you got the coin! I know I would cherish that coin forever. Do you have any plans of encasing it for your collection?

[MasterSplyntr]

The greed of people that have posted these coins on Ebay is nauseating.

Thats awesome and a sweet piece to have! Hoping to see Mike again when the next fundays rolls around.

I got one of these coins as well. I’d love to post a picture but I don’t know if it violates the posting of pics in this thread.

[xbloz951]

It sure looks like it!

[sdcccrasher]

Our grandson was given one by Mike on Sunday ... it is now his most prized possession! What a wonderfl gift to be given by the Greatest "Funmaker" of them all! Thanks Mike!!!

[Jade-Rex]

That's super awesome! I didn't get the chance to talk to Mike personally, but what a great memento for you to have!

I'd pay $50 for a Mike Coin , i'm sure they won't get those crazy prices.
I've only ever seen some rare protos from fundays go for that much , can't imagine a 50 ct. coin go for that

I couldn’t agree more.

There’s only 40 of them. Such a special item from the man himself.

He actually handed it to me during that show. I’ll literally never forget it.

Where that's the 40 piece count coming out from?

[Funko_Karina]

That is such an awesome gift from Mike. Congrats!

[TonyFunkoFreakHead]

There is a several individuals when the coins first came to market messaging other sellers to raise their price astronomically since it's "limited edition", is there really 40? We will never truly know. It's their coin so they can do what they want with it, but it's pretty funny to me they trying to manipulate the market hard over this thing and band together on a high price......only to see no one sell it for that price and the cutting of prices beginning. There's one on eBay now as an auction and it's at about $100 with 4 days left, this will be the true test of value

That’s what I’m wondering too. Anyone know if Mike may have mentioned it after giving one out?

Mike mentioned it somewhere. It may have been on one of the eBay lives after Fundays.

[MasterSplyntr]

This will be the true test of value

Unfortunately, I don't think it will. Market manipulation, especially with low LE #'d collectibles is all too easy. It really comes down to how many coins are actually in the hands of collectors and how many have already been bought up by people that only want to raise the "value" as high as possible. If the majority are already in the hands of the latter, we're screwed.

Such a fantastic momento.. very cool for those limited number of funatics.

I think at most it'll end at $250. Coins are cool, but its a niche market within a niche market, within a contained fandom

Thank you for sharing your story!! Meow I hear the sailing song they played during the farewell montage/slideshow T-T

[Getfunko]

What an amazing coin! Wish I was able to get one to add to my collection!

It’s very cool. I was so happy to be there and to share in Mike’s success. It was a celebration of the funatics, with Mike at the helm. Absolutely amazing, unforgettable, incredible experience. And the coin is a reminder of this moment in time

Those prices are way better than what they were after Fundays that's for sure! I am sure with the hype of this year starting to die down we will see the price drop.

[Jessedtaylor77]

Got one myself on Saturdays at fundays. Definitely one of my most prized items. I heard it’s Limited to 40 coins. Need to find a way to display it properly on my shelf.

[Libertyroxx]

Really hope the price goes down on this. Like a lot of you I'd love to have such a special and unique piece in my collection.

[funkydaddypops]

I didnt realize there was coin!! defintely gonna have to look for one to add to the collection! hopefully the price does go down a bit, I dont know if ill be able to resist and wait for price to go down !

[FuegoGlorious]

Super hard to find, limited to something like 40 I believe and only handed out randomly in person.

[Avaliane]

Congrats on your coin! So awesome you got one.

[sealordbrian]

Completely agree and thanks for sharing. Also, congratulations on that coin. What a piece to have in your collection.

Welp, it ended at $560 after being bid up throughout the duration of the listing by an account with 1 feedback. Nothing fishy about that!

Right? Definitely not a seller who wants to bid up the price and cause fomo, and will not pay the $560
