I bought a light blue batman figure at sdcc that was in a clamshell and not a box. That was probably around 2010, I ended up having to sell him unfortunately

This little man I believe.

Edit: Maybe he was the first exclusive? I think I got that confused at one point and regular batman was the first.


Almost $300? WOAHH

Crazy looking back on this and seeing your reaction to a Pop selling for this much - imagine if the same Pop had been sold for $300 nowadays, everyone would be all over it!

I picked up three of those four Pops at a comic con: Original release Batman, Metallic Batman, and Metallic Batgirl. I passed on GL as I don't collect the character. Never thought they would be worth anything, just liked the fun design.

Cut to a few years later, and I have over 200 Batman-related Pops. But I'm an opener. Part of the reason for that is that I pried open those clam shells as soon as I bought them.

none of us wanted them. Steve at Gemini had to discount them to $25 shipped each to get them to move. Brian reboxed many into regular boxes so they would sell. We all hated the Funko Force 2.0 Clamshell back then, lol. My how times have changed.

Damn that’s crazy if only we had a time machine lol
