Agreed! :D I have a Gold Loki that sits on my desk. He's been my little buddy ever since I had to take him out of box to fix his crooked head and clean the glue globs off his helmet.

I was shocked at how the price for the Lokis went up, to be honest lol I never figured out the popularity. I don't know if it's just the movie fanbase that had suddenly taken interest or if he's just a popular villain overall?

I have a few in the $hundreds like 02 Loki, two face, riddler etc...
But my Homer Simpson is my most valuable as he was my first Pop! and I won him at my local arcade with one spin of a machine. He is one I will never part with.

My Avengers Thor valued at $33 according to PopPriceGuide. I have trouble paying more than $15 for a Pop at this point in my life and I'm unable to make it to any worthwhile cons, or I'd probably have a much nicer top Pop!

The movie fanbase obviously helped but really, I think the reasoning has a lot to do with Batman.

...Bear with me lol...

Look at The Joker and a couple of the basic parallels he shares with Loki:
Deception is like... their job.
Their oldest enemy/rival (Batman/Thor) doesn't want them dead, just for justice to be served.
They (Loki/Joker) would rather see their enemy tortured than killed; because it's more fun that way.

In this sense, they're both perfect comic/tv/movie villains (and have quite a bit in common)... hence this shirt from loot crate:

I think my most valuable is the ECCC Phoenix. It was about the 3rd Pop! I purchased for about $25 when I started collecting. A few months back, I saw it sell for over $100 but I have no idea what it goes for now. It also has the highest personal value as it is one of first Pops! and also one of my favorite characters.

Don't know most valuable in monetary terms? The Gemini metallic Arrow maybe? But my all time favorite (so emotionally valuable) is both my 1st POP! and my favorite character: Flocked Chewbacca

My most valuable (and valued) would be my Supanova Stan Lee. I bought the "True Believers" entry pass to Supanova last year, that included this guy, a photo ticket, an autograph ticket, panel entry, and some other goodies.

IMAG0870_2_1.jpg

Stan the Man came out to Sydney for the first time in something like 30 years (after a previously cancelled tour a decade ago) and will most likely never visit again. I waited in queue for aaages (in my Ms. Marvel stiletto boots.. yeouch), and had him sign the box (he called me "darling"! :iconbiggrin: ).

He ended up staying much later than the con's actual opening hours, just so he could accommodate as many signings as possible. Pretty awesome for a nonagenarian!

Hmmm... monetarily I think my most valuable is Holographic Darth Maul, but personally I like Flocked Wampa a lot. I know Maul is like 300, because I traded him with a Metallic Martian Manhunter. Don't really feel sad because the glow on Maul is pretty good when you charge it and personally I don't really like the metallic on Manhunter.
I'm the collector Gotham deserves. (but also the one it needs right now)

I don't think much about the money. I always go with the one I like best. Currently, that would be Rocketeer Mystery Mini. I know it's not a Pop, but Funko's done so much cool stuff, it's a shame to limit it to one line.

My most valuable price-wise is Wizard World Stan Lee. However, for me it is way to hard to choose just one that's most valuable, but it's either Nick Fury or E-3PO or Stitch or Mikasa Ackerman or Finn or Jake or...

Nope, definitely cannot choose one.

Most valuable in terms of dollars or most meaningful? I've seen different answers. My answer's the same either way--my Fredpool protos are probably the most valuable in terms of selling price. I have so many Pop interests, Freddy's, prototypes, Pop Rocks, DC--I have so many favorites! But Freddy protos make me giddy. Also met a great seller through the whole deal, which is always awesome :)

ECCC Phoenix. I found the pop in a small video game shop. It was under $20, which seemed reasonable since it was a convention toy, and it was of a character I'd liked, so I got it.

The two most valuable pieces in my collection are my Jason Vorhees and Freddy Kreuger Chase pops, I want this to be my harder to come by set. Still need a Bloody Leatherface and a GitD Michael Myers that isn't so pricey. That's a good cut to the wallet to pick them up and it's harder to focus on with the surge of great pop pieces coming out. Who doesn't love Star Wars? SW4

I probably have a few with fairly high monetary values right now since we started with a bunch of Disney pops several years ago, but no matter what the monetary value, I would never give up my Genie or Toy Story Alien pops...some of the first ones I bought and two of my favorite Disney characters. :D

My Mad Hatter, definitely. I'm a huge Alice fan and remember tracking when it'd be released. I picked it up at my local Disney Store (back when they still carried Pops). Not bad since it goes for $65 now (according to Pop Price Guide).
