Tempted to Start Collecting...

Postby TattooLost » Thu Jul 16, 2015 7:07 pm

Okay, so I collect a ton of Deadpool stuff. I've been tempted to get some of the Hikaris, but I've been reluctant because of the price. Are they somewhat easy to find discounted anywhere?

Hikari definitely isn't a poor mans game. But Amazon usually has them at a discounted price, having said that Deadpool seems to not be dropping that much. Hikari are awesome and the variants trump Pop by a mile. Here are the two cheapest ones, but they are still pricey.

Yea those are definitely the cheapest I've ever seen for Deadpool... I've been tempted to get some Hikari's also but just holding off cuz of price. I just started collecting pops so for the same price of 1 Hikari I can get a few pops. 1st world problems....

Amazon often has good prices and hot topic is good right now because you can use hot cash and get two Hikaris for around $80. I have found that the longer you wait, the more the price drops, especially when looking on amazon.

I think I might get one soon. Those prices on amazon aren't bad. I didn't think about hot cash either. I'll have to start looking around. Thanks guys! That pic you showed Warner is awesome looking!

Same here pal, I just don't have the room for it, however, for Deadpool there's ALWAYS room!!!! Ebay sometimes has a few for around $44 shipped that I've seen lately, but Solar/SDCC/EE variants definitely go for around $70 or more. Will wait till I finish off SDCC hunting to seriously consider these beauties!

I have a Spidey and a Leo but the quality is there you'll really like them you don't need a ton of them, plus they tower over my pops so that's cute.

Tattoo, I'm just like you were a week ago, and I decided to pull the trigger on my first hikari, which was really 5 of them.

I've been getting frustrated with funko pop. Hikari has limited runs, but it doesn't seem like an item that gets flipped too much. I like things that are limited, or I at least like to know how many were made.

Anyways, the quality with this line is TOP NOTCH. They look absolutely beautiful. Even though they are expensive, I feel like there are less to keep up with. With funko pop, i keep up with many lines. But with Hikari, I'm just sticking with my first love (Star Wars). I think it evens out in the end. I dont have to buy 10 of them a month to keep up with my lines.

They're awesome, and you can find deals if you're patient. Ebay can be your friend, as can hot topic. 50% during hot cash, and you can get another 15% (or rarely 20%) if you plan ahead and buy discounted gift cards. IMO, the deadpools are a bit overpriced at the moment, given their run sizes. Little (nothing?) over runs of 500 have maintained their retail value.

Iron Man got me on board and now I have been picking up a few choice pieces. I really like the translucent ones, I have a display cabinet I am going to be putting glass shelving and a spotlight in for displaying them. Stoked to get it all set up in a another week or two...

I looked at my local hot topic today, but they only had one Groot one. Don't want to get started there yet. Gonna stick with Deadpools only for now. Fixing to do some online window shopping. Thanks everyone!

I love the Hikari. I have limited myself to only monster and Sci-Fi ones though. I primarily only collect the Hikari and ReAction lines now, and have let my Pop collecting slide.
