Grail Pops

Postby **gv4suns** » Sat Sep 16, 2017 10:46 pm

Hey everyone, I just acquired one of my grail pops and it got my thinking, what are some of your guy's grail pops?

Postby **[llO_oll]7** » Sat Sep 16, 2017 11:33 pm

mines weren't grails until recently because my biggest stock of pops are Game of Thrones, they just keep going up... Sad and happy at the same time

Harry Potter on Broom proto! It's my favorite pop in the Harry Potter line and hopefully one day I'll have a chance at getting the proto.

All 4 Freddy flux were my grails this year
Grails I'm trying to acquire right now would have to be avengers retro Freddy's.

Right now it would be Freddy Funko Vault Boy for sure, I am the biggest Fallout Nerd :eek:

Postby **Classier** » Sun Sep 17, 2017 12:53 am

Definitely X-Men and X-Force Fredpool.

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Sun Sep 17, 2017 1:04 am

I have too many. lol

But I guess right now it's Freddy Dr.Strange.

Postby **fischmioli** » Sun Sep 17, 2017 1:09 am

Planet Arlia Vegeta is my top grail.

You should have told me, I would have traded him to you! lol

Most of my grails wouldn't be considered a grail to others. My realistic ones is the whole set of "Christmas Story" as they deeply reminded me of my childhood. From there it's the Goonies and then Star Wars. Most likely unattainable grails would be Storm Trooper Han and Luke.

I agree! That would be a very cool proto to own. Right when I saw that Pop I fell in love with it. My other grail protos would be Rick with Portal Gun and 9" Buzz Lightyear

Damn. Oh well. Not my first missed opportunity for him unfortunately.

The commons of today are the grails of tomorrow

Just got the Michael Jackson set. The king of Pop.... (sorry, had to do it, lol

As a GoT collector I have quite a few grails I still need to attain, I just started to collect them all and I have about half but I still need a lot of the big ones like Headless Ned, GITD White Walker, Scarred Tyrion, Gold Dragon Dany.... :happy8:

Freddy Funko Flava Flav as seen in my signature block below. If anyone can help, I would appreciate any leads. Thank you.

EDIT:
Oh, and any 36 inch Retro Freddy preferably any superhero. Oh, and then a SDCC Captain America Mega Dorbz.

Ok, really done... for now. lol

Postby **MattyPHATty** » Sun Sep 17, 2017 12:49 pm

GitD white Lantern Flash from Fugitive. It's the last expensive one I need to complete my Funko flash collection. Just recently bought the GitD reverse Flash from Dallas CC so I'm glad to have that one out of the way now

Postby **Marquetry** » Sun Sep 17, 2017 1:48 pm

Mine was the Original Series Captain Kirk, obtained him for a good price recently to complete my Star Trek collection. Next up grail is probably.. either JarJar (because I think he's funny), or Wishverse Willow from Buffy (my dear finally got us to start watching the series this year, and I love it, plus Willow is probably the character I'm most similar to).

Postby **Snake0127** » Sun Sep 17, 2017 2:58 pm

I have two of mine. Twelfth Doctor Spacesuit and Reaper Crew Jax Teller. I'd love to get GITD Kiss but those are way too expensive.

That's what I keep telling myself. I should have bought every single Pop back in 2013-2014. lol

Do you mean grails we have or grails we want?

Postby **nerdy_jesus13** » Mon Sep 18, 2017 12:42 am

I don't have many grail pops but my fatman pop is definitely my top grail.

Oh, were you at fundays this year? It was definitely a treat to be there

Postby **chaostryder** » Mon Sep 18, 2017 12:50 am

My grail at the moment is Freddy Deathstroke, love how he looks but don't run across him very often

Postby **TriFeckTa** » Mon Sep 18, 2017 1:11 am

My current grail pop is my white Deep Space Suit Iron Man proto.

Postby **fbingha** » Mon Sep 18, 2017 1:17 am

Mine were the rare X-Men, Phoenixes, Wolverines, and I did get them all at great cost. I then did a turn about and sold them as I just felt bad spending that much money on a few pops. Now, all I really seek that is "valuable" is the Freddy Funko Doctor Who to make my Doctor Who collection complete.

Postby **Gonzo206** » Mon Sep 18, 2017 3:27 am

Notorious BIG and Tupac! Those are my two grails for now!

Postby **Teresahbach** » Mon Sep 18, 2017 5:35 am

One of my Wacky wobblers now!

Postby **Neuron** » Mon Sep 18, 2017 7:12 am

My 2 grails..Loki #02 and PA Vegeta..took some time before i finally got them.

I was. It was my first Fundays and it was a blast. Hoping to go again next year.

My first ever Grail was Rocky Balboa. The phenomenal Funatic Jango_Fresh got one for me like the absolute boss that he is, and I'm sitting here still trying to figure out a way to repay him =D>

My second Grail was the Flocked Wolf Man from TT/SDCC 2015. I wasn't excited to spend eBay money on him, but I ended up caving after spotting him for a "not terrible" price. To date, it's the most I've paid for any Pop, and I really hope I never have to pay that much for one ever again haha.

I try to limit myself to one Grail at a time, just to keep myself grounded and realistic. For the past year, I've been all about the ever-elusive Hatbox Ghost. The glowing variant from last year's SDCC is the one I'm constantly on the lookout for, but at those outrageous prices, I'll honestly settle for the Park exclusive. I just need HIM in any capacity.

To me, Grails are figures that hold some sort of importance. Like, I'd love to have the Chase variant Michael Meyers, but only because he looks cool. The Hatbox Ghost, on the other hand, represents the awesome history of Disney Parks, the lore and legends that I've been fascinated with since I was a 5-year-old. Just like how the Wolf Man is my favorite movie monster, and how the first Rocky film helped get me through my first major fight with depression. They're Grails not simply because I really want them, but because my collection is a reflection of myself, and it honestly wouldn't feel complete without these characters, y'know?
