Has anybody here started collecting because of Pop! Tees?

Postby SaintsRow2008 » Tue Nov 24, 2015 9:18 pm

I'm curious about this. It's no secret Pop! tees have been doing pretty well and look pretty cool. I don't own any myself, but it sounds plausible that at least some collectors discovered Pops because of the shirts.

I started with Pop!s but think the shirts are really cool. If only they had tall sizes!!

I started with Pops first BUT as of my last trip to my local HT, they STILL don't have any Pop Tees! Kind of annoying because I really want Ghost Rider, Skeletor and Freddy vs Jason and probably others. Hopefully early next year!

I have at least ten Pop Tee's. 6 I havent opened yet. The very first one I got was Groot, had to have it. THEN I ended up having to return and exchange, the whole sleeve came un-stitched after the first wash. HT was great, but no more Groots, I was crushed! Like Jezter above, Im looking out for GR and Skeletor. I did get FvJ and its a great tee!

I got 2 shirts. They wear a bit bigger than normal. Cool shirts though. Looking forward to the next wave, especially that civil war shirt.

I'm sure it happens but for me I started collecting pops because I got tired of waiting for new wobblers LOL

Retailers all over will be carrying Pop Tees starting next year, so we should definitely being seeing a lot more of them in many more places than the usual...

I have four and I find that the quality is at best average, but I do love the designs. The sleeve on one ripped at the seams after one wash and wear. I have Secret Wars, Ghost Rider, Ant-Man, and Winter Soldier. On sale, I will probably buy more if designs that interest me are released, but they certainly aren't worth $20 or $25 to me.
