At ACE Seattle I found Peter Venkman Freddy for $80. I have no clue how the booth didn’t realize how insane they were selling it to me for that price.

Not sure it classifies as wild but I found my 2014 Spongebob and Plakton Tin Pack for 20 dollars in 2016, at the time it was valued around 80 dollars but since then it has gone up quite a bit

Just sitting on the store shelf? When Walgreens released the chase Green Goblin, I found 4 of them just sitting there. I got one for myself and left the others. It was just cool to see 4 chases stacked up like that. I've found a few vaulted Pops in the wild, but nothing too crazy. Rollo from Vikings at BN several months after he'd been vaulted, and I found a Colossal Titan that had been stuck under a table and forgotten about at Books a Million last year. It rang up for $6.

Most of my big finds have been luck from online orders. I got chase Freddy and Leatherface from HT orders. Chase Penelope Pitstop from a BN.com order. That sort of thing.

I think my favorite "rare" find was a set of OOB SDCC Ghostbusters pops (covered in marshmallow goo.) Got them for $7.99.

The best I've ever found in the wild was a Chase Violet from the Incredibles. It's the only one I've ever found at a retail location though, I'm almost never lucky with getting chase variants.

Walgreens Green Goblin was also my first chase find in the wild. It was complete accident when I knew nothing about pops. Except it wasnt on the shelf. The storage manager knew I wanted Walgreens exclusives. He had them in the back, saw me, handed it to me, and the lack of excitement on my face I am sure that he knew I had no idea what was in my hand. LOL.... That one was given to an old friend who I always helped hunt. #goodtimes

Oh this is a loaded question. Honestly anything I have been able to find in the wild has been amazing. I have come across Wonder Woman Chase in the original box, Original 3 power rangers, a batman chase that wasn't a chase (that's a funny story). OOB mad hatter at a random comic store...... Seriously the list goes on!

I have never been that lucky outside of normal chases. Best chase probably Erik Killmonger, but found about 8 chases in the wild. Unless Funko-Shop counts as in the wild.

Probably the moment I found the Harry potter and sorting hat .. it was such a magical moment. I experienced the same kind of happiness and excitement over the harry potter on broom pop.

For SDCC 2016, I had pre-ordered the Scott Pilgrim Sex Bob-Omb 3 Pack from FYE (cuz they didn't have them in store the day the rest of the stores had released their shared exclusives). Fast forward to about a week later, I get a call they received them. I rush over to FYE and the clerk hands me the box. I start looking, taking my time to find the best conditioned box. A lot of them were in bad shape when I finally find one thats actually in good shape. I check the top, bottom, sides, and back. I'm sure this one is mine, however the best surprise came when I checked the front. FYE had gotten one with the ACTUAL SDCC sticker. Best find in store EVER!

They put it out early, it was street dated, I asked if they could hold it(it was out one day early) since it's not my fault I found it and someone put it out early, I could have hid it lol. They did, but without a name so anyone could have gotten it lol

The day that I walked into Books A Million and they must have just put a shipment out and there were chases everywhere! Got my Heffer, Weaponized Rick, Bob Ross, and Porg in one go. Told myself I used up all my luck for the year in that one trip.

Value-wise would be a Chase Bombshells Joker, but otherwise found the Chase Bombshells Wonder Woman, which doesn't have particular value, I just didn't want to pay market value - plus it really started my Wonder Woman and assorted DC collection. And otherwise, recently found Russell from UP in a store, was pretty pleased as it was less than half the market value!
