Is Boo Berry hard to find?

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got a spring. Come inside and chat about Funko Wacky Wobblers (bobble heads, for the less sophisticated).

Is Boo Berry hard to find?

Postby groundhog7s » Tue Jun 04, 2013 4:05 pm

Yeah, I rarely post in the WW section, but I've recently started looking to complete my cereal monsters Wobblers set and am not finding Boo Berry very easy to locate. Can anyone tell me if it's rare and, if so, why? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Fewer were made and it has never been cheap. Cool piece though.

The regular Boo Wobbler was not available in stores. He was a send-away promo from Monster Cereals. When Choc and Frank Wobblers were released in stores, the small Boo bank completed the trio rather than a Wobbler. The different colored bases of Choc and Frank are how you can tell store release from send-away if they are loose.

Thanks for the info...I think. I guess now I know that this is one I'll probably have to luck into to get it at a price that's in my budget.

Again, thanks to you both!

Yeah, as the other guys said, never being released at a retail level has always made this one a difficult piece to find. I do not know if it was planned, but someone under estimated just how popular BooBerry really was.

Booberry is one of my favorite wobblers. And it is the only hand painted proto that I have not been able to track down.
