Funko Pop Collection (Part 1)

I've been meaning to showcase my Funko Pop collection for quite a while, but I definitely need to do it in sections because the collection keeps growing and I still have a bunch that I've preordered and am waiting for in the mail. It's all very overwhelming and ridiculous.

Since I noticed my Funko Pop collection in Austin has outgrown my collection back home in San Jose, it made me realize the stagnant collection in San Jose is a great place to start to show you what I've got in the Pop arsenal. The San Jose collection has just been chillin', collecting dust since I moved to Austin... because these figures literally don't do anything. Truth from a collector of useless things.

As always, apologies for my lack of photography skills. I was too lazy to take them out of their boxes mostly because there were too many of them. Hehe. For future Funko posts, I'll focus on smaller batches so I can take better pictures (which shouldn't be hard when you look at these 😂).

For this first group of Pops, I'll include the Funko Pop description, where I acquired it (if I remember), and hopefully a link to where to buy it if they're still available (otherwise I'll likely link to eBay). Disclaimer, I can't remember where I bought a lot of these since these were acquired anywhere from 3-7 years ago.

Funny story, my nephew wanted one of my Batman Beyond Funko Pops, but I had to explain to him the difference between the 2 above and why I wanted to keep both. I bought one for him eventually, but just goes to show you how ridiculous all the different versions are.

Agh. That was only 24, but that was already so overwhelming to archive/document. I think my Austin collection may be twice as large so going to work in those smaller batches like I mentioned earlier. I'll figure out how to break them up so we can focus on quality instead of quantity in these Funko Pop posts.

In the mean time, let me know if you have any favorites from above. My favorite (out of my entire collection) is the metallic blue Batman in the plastic dome because it was my first ever Funko Pop 😀. Funko Pops originally go for anywhere between $8-15, but a lot of mine have increased in value. To keep track of my collection, I use Pop Price Guide. I highly recommend it if you're also a collector and trying to keep track of how many you have, which ones you have, and how much your entire collection is worth!

Happy Labor Day weekend, everyone! Hope yours has been fun yet relaxing!
