Most valuable pop in your collection

Postby **shogunjlips** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 2:16 pm

and lets all remember the "value equation"

value = benefit - cost

:tink:

I guess just based on value id have to say yellow symbol metallic chase batman, doesnt hurt that I bought him off a guy selling off his collection on Craigslist for 20 bucks. also got homer simpson and a chase wonder woman in the old DC universe box there too cheap

My metallic Spider-Man pops mean an awful lot to me

Toy Tokyo Blue Batmobile

gitd NBC Zero Chase. Not "worth" much, but my one and only chase in my meager POP! collection, and I was really hoping to get my hands on him as well

Postby **MarvelPopFan75** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 3:13 pm

I suppose mine would be the SDCC headless Ned Stark.

I'd argue my two most valuable finds would be Two-Face (and, to a lesser extent, Zombie Merle).

The reasoning behind this is that I found Two-Face around three years ago, back when he was still impossible to find but hadn't yet been rereleased by Popcultcha. He was discovered in a tiny little hole-in-the-wall toy shop on Mackinac Island, and had I known how valuable/rare he was at the time, I would've a.) grabbed more, and b.) kept them all in their boxes. Alas, I was but a newbie collector at the time, and being able to own one of my favorite villains in Pop form greatly outweighed its secondhand value.

Zombie Merle I believe I stumbled upon at Hot Topic back when he was first released. I remember also buying a Zombie Jake with him, but sold Jake for a fraction of what he could've been sold for today.

As you can see, I was once very bad at this.

How do you know you don't have his pop... hmmmmm

Oh I definitely have a Green Arrow pop. It's in my pic duh. When he said "ditto", I assumed he had the same one I have.

That I do. I also stole your Green Arrow, so now I have two! lol

Wait are we talking about value based on current estimated worth in the secondary market or which one we deem as most valuable in our collection based on current emotional attachment.?

Because if its the latter than for me that is my Rocky Balboa ... #1 always forever, near and far

Most valuable price-wise: Hot Topic Guy....paid $60 on eBay. Most valuable sentimental-wise: Mary Poppins...first pop bought and my all time favorite movie!

Postby **Ganonthegreat** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 4:25 pm

Most valuable is my Proto Edward Kenway. Most special is my 1 of 1 custom Ash Ketchum.

Postby **jhorsley23** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 4:25 pm

I've only been collecting for about a year or two, so I don't have many that are really "valuable". I guess my most valuable one is probably my DCC exclusive Reverse Flash. Got him for free in Secret Santa exchange on another forum.

Postby **morbidsoliloquy** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 4:26 pm

my 9" sulley and boo sdcc exclusive

Postby **Adudewithdreams** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 4:43 pm

Hulkbuster, going to be worth a ton in the future. Or maybe GIR and zombie merle.

So now I know who took mine... time for a plan to steal them both back...LOL.

My Shawdow trooper! It may not be my most valuable price wise but it's my all time fav pop!!

ooh...ned is a good one. He was the pop that got me more heavily into collecting. Bought him from Gemini because I was kinda surprised they made a pop who was designed to have the head come off.

i bought alan and carlos for 15$ and he's selling for 90

Dude, I need a Storm Trooper so badly!

Congrats on your big and well organized collection... I follow your YouTube videos BTW!

I don't know, maybe my regular Freddy Funko Clone Trooper.

Postby **MyLittleFunkos** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 5:47 pm

My most valuable pop is my unpainted 9" Batman. I love looking at it and throwing it in the snow :-D

Postby **wraithkelso** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 5:51 pm

I'm not sure price wise but I have the Wicked Witch and Dorothy who I know were retired a long time ago, as well as SDCC Frozen Anna, ECCC Phoenix variant

Postby **HobieWanKenobi** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 6:01 pm

Blue Hair Freddy Clone Trooper.

Cost me 4 Horror Chase pieces; Jason, Freddy, Mike, and Leatherface.

Postby **Hop** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 7:07 pm

Metallic Deadpool is definitely my most valued AND valuable pop...
I have no idea how much they're selling for now but I paid $80 and it stung... worth it though.
Displaying OOB, it's never leaving my collection :-D

(Funko retweeted this for me earlier, my phone then proceeded to explode with twitter notifications lol

)

Awesome deadpool collection! Had the proto once, I miss him a little bit.

Thanks!

I'm jealous that you've even had the proto pass through your hands, I've tried to find pictures in the past with no luck... and I consider the Fredpools to be a total dream at this point. Way out of my price range >.<

Postby **Xacrifar** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 7:34 pm

My first chase I found in the wild. 9 inch Blue Batman.

I foolishly waited on the b and W, the orange, and the sdcc Deadpool when I started collecting about a year ago. At the time I think I could have picked them up for a combined 80 bucks plus shipping from Amazon, matts cavalcade and convention exclusives. Still kicking my own butt. Have the rest though. The do make a great collection, congratulations.

1/48 Freddy Fett or 1/48 Joker Freddy. No idea what they are worth in $ but they are worth alot to me.

Postby **Cornhusker** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 8:43 pm

I do love my Freddy POPs, but I guess my most valuable POP might be my 36" Retro Freddy. I think he's 1 of 10 pieces. RetroFreddy comes in second place for my largest Funko. My Market Freddy stands 40" tall.

Paid $60 for him, box got a little beat up so I filed a claim with USPS and was able to get $50 back, so I really only paid $10 for him

What a deal!

Postby **Chemo_Nchicago** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 8:52 pm

I have no clue :-"

Postby **KarateKid** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 8:52 pm

I'm the newbie so modestly and humbly I submit mine's the Star Wars Celebration Exclusive R2-R9. It's more limited than the other ones since it was NOT at the Funko main booth but at the smaller independent Toy Tokyo booth. They handed out tickets ... like maybe 50 a day ... so at the moment pretty limited. Plus, as a HUGE Star Wars fan, it's extra valuable to me!

Postby **aussam** » Tue Apr 28, 2015 9:08 pm

The metallic Riddler and Penguin (got both from Popcultcha when I ordered the regular versions) and Green Arrow. I have thought about selling them but I just can't bring myself to do it.

There is so much jealousy right now...being that this ^^^ is the one I currently want most of all.

Back on topic...

My most valuable piece would be a tie up between Skeletor or She-Ra. Both seem to fluxuate between $60-$80

Yeah, you're right Valde, it's something you can't measure by it's price.

Yeah Bro.,

I have been looking for him for a while; was about to buy one but was bitten in the auction! It's nice to have the illusion to buy it at certain point. And you're videos are pretty awesome! Congrats and keep the good work!
