[@paulharper9711]

“Collect what YOU like. Don’t worry about what other people have.” That’s the best advice whether it’s Pops, comics or trading cards.

[@metsmvp]

Skittle, I started collecting pops February 2018, when I purchased a Stormtrooper at a store closing record place for $4.00. I looked at it, and that got me hooked in collecting Funko. I was buying everything in sight. On several occasions, I purchased the same pops by accident, like the Beast, Daniel Larusso Cobra Kai, and Billy Idol. It gets crazy. I now have about 250 pops. I now pace myself, due to lack of space and it being very costly. I buy maybe two to three pops a month. I collect Marvel(mainly Spider-Man), DC(mainly Batman and the Joker) Star Wars, rock icons, certain TV shows and movies( that I like)and ad icons.

[@ZenkaiNick]

The budget and pace yourself point is good. I already suffered from it lol I bought my first pop and in less than a month I ended up spending almost 1000 dollars buying a bunch more

[@jewellchastain4244]

I’d also start off maybe buying your favorite character(my first PoP was actually a Captain America I bought for one of my high school teachers but she wasn’t there the day I was going to give it to her so I kept it)one of my favorite PoPs is the Frost Giant Loki because I love Loki,so my advice is maybe start with your favorite character from whatever fandom and work up from there.

[@PresidentPixel]

Ordered my SDCC Bakugo and it got delivered I was so excited until I realized it wasn’t delivered and/or stolen so now I just wanna cry.

[@thefanwithoutaface8105]

My collection actually started with a Suicide Squad Killer Croc Funko my uncle bought me and I've been steadily collecting more ever since. It's cheaper than collecting statues or action figures.

[@Kanata_Satou]

My first attempt at Funko Pop collecting failed miserably,I couldn’t keep a Funko Pop on my collection for more than a month because I kept selling or trading them for other stuff,why? Because I was just collecting because other people collected them so I didn’t have any attachment to them,plus I kept getting characters I barely even cared for,so I stopped for sometime thinking I wasn’t a Funko Pop guy,but then everything changed when I got Tanjiro,then months later I got Hanako-kun,then Itadori and after him things got out of hand,but this time I was actually collecting stuff I truly like and I’m interested in,as a result my collection is mostly Demon Slayer with a few My Hero Academia and very few Marvel,but I’m so happy with my small collection and I wouldn’t trade or sell any of my Pops because they are all characters I like from series I love.

[@dreamwithinadreamfilms]

I feel that way about the McDonald’s, Dragon Ball Z, and Sanrio ones… They’re some of the silliest, but remind me of my childhood.

Answer: buy things you like with stickers, buy things you like that glow in the dark, if you like wearing shirts 👉 buy the t-bundles lol Buy what you like is an important detail i think people may actually forget, especially if they collect for value

[@tyymello4722]

i started really collecting last summer, I use to buy funko pops when I was younger and I first bought Ryu and didn't even know what funko pops were I just happen to walk into gamestop and saw something I recognized. then I stopped and got into legos for like a couple of years then I watched MHA & Attack on Titan. I wondered if they were made into pops so i went on ebay and the first pop i got was Deku gitd, then I i found out there were all kinds and it took off from there learning about exclusive, stickers, and retailers😄

[@-___-__]

In 2019, a lot of my friends started collecting pops, so I bought a Captain America one from infinity war. Now I'm adding a second pop to my collection, which is the flying Scarlet Witch from Wandavision

[@khalilevans4622]

I just started because of wandavision and I almost have them all now lol

Before I got the scarlet witch one, I bought Kamala Kahn, endgame captain America, tfatws Falcon, Monica rambeau then scarlet witch

i had stopped collecting funkos about a couple years ago (the last pop i bought was harley quinn from “the suicide squad) but by me working at gamestop and seeing some cool funkos releasing soon (i.e ghostface, power from chainsaw man, and john wick) i’ve decided to start collecting again 🥰

[@nathankent2631]

I’ve been collecting since mid March, love one piece so I’m collecting one piece pops, I’ve got about 25-27 pops, got a couple 6 inch variants, the most I spent was on caeser clown, I spent $200AUD on a preorder, I live in Australia, so I can’t make it to most conventions where exclusive pops are, and I’m on a really tight budget every fortnight, I’ve only got $622 after everything else, so I find it easy to just buy a few, maybe five or six every month works for me

Thanks this really helps about to start collecting soon 😁😁😁

Great Video Have a Magical Tuesday ⚫🎀⚫

[@adchso]

What happens is as an adult you start out saying they look dumb and what would you do with them anyway, what a waste of money. Then you see one that means something to you. Maybe it’s your favorite character or it’s from a movie you have fond memories of. There may be a bit of nostalgia or laughter. It makes you smile. So you buy it. Then you start wondering if they make others that resonate with you, and before you know it you’re going to local comic cons looking for that particular one and deciding which ones to choose from your limited budget.

[@DiamorphineDeath]

He wasn’t joking 😭😭 I started exactly 1 month ago and including pre-orders I am now up to 64 Pops

I have failed at putting a budget, sometimes I just lose control and end up spending all my money on Funkos, but there've been times I've had to cancel orders 'cause I realized it's too much, so far I have 65 funkos in my collection and some 30 on pre orders so maybe I'll make it to end of the year with around 100... IT'S AN ADDICTION.

[@Ibrahim-lb5ys]

I have seen more people wanting anime funkos in this comment section than I have in my entire life. BTW, didn’t know they had Naruto!

[@Havoc-yu2wl]

Not to be rude by saying this but to me this was all common sense. I am not hating on you i just have really bad OCD. I think you are doing a great job. But back to my original point in the fact that some people do need to get told these things and some people may not be able to grasp at certain ideas and common knowledge. I know i am posting this a year after you did this video but i do have a question. I am a new collector and most my pops are pretty generalised and arent woth much. In the event i acquire a chase worht lets say $100+, should i sell it quickly, keep it or sell when the next hype is for that pop? If anyone could give me a idea into chases and where to sell them i would appreciate.
