Okay, so, I’ve been thinking about diving into the world of Funko Pops, especially the horror-themed ones. You know, those little figures with the big heads that everyone seems to be collecting? I decided to start with the horror movie ones because, well, I love horror movies. It’s like bringing a little piece of those scary stories into my home, but in a cute, collectible way.
So, I started by making a list. I mean, where else do you start, right? I jotted down all the horror movies I could think of off the top of my head and then did a bit of digging online to see which ones had Funko Pops. Turns out, there are a LOT. Like, way more than I expected.
My Horror Movie Funko Pop Hunt
First off, I hit up the usual spots – you know, the big online stores. I typed in “horror movie Funko Pop” and was flooded with options. I saw everything from the classic monsters like Freddy and Jason to some more niche characters that I didn’t even know they made Pops for.
After that, I decided to get a bit more organized. I made a spreadsheet (yeah, I’m that person) and started categorizing them. I had columns for the movie, the character, whether it was a common or rare one, and even a price range. It was actually kind of fun, like a little research project.
Then came the fun part – the hunt. I started checking out local collectible stores and even some comic book shops. It’s a whole different world out there. Some of these places had Pops I couldn’t find online, and some were even cheaper. Plus, it’s kind of cool to talk to other collectors and get tips on where to find the rare ones.
Some Tips and Tricks
- Rarity Matters: Apparently, some of these little guys can be worth a lot. Like, we’re talking hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars. It’s all about how many were made, whether they were exclusive to certain stores or conventions, and stuff like that.
- Price Differences: I found out that the common ones usually go for around $8 to $11. But the rare ones? The sky’s the limit. It’s wild!
- Funko’s History: I learned that Funko started way back in 1998. Their first product was a bobblehead of that Big Boy restaurant mascot. Now, they make these Pops for pretty much every movie, TV show, and video game you can think of.
So yeah, that’s where I’m at with my horror movie Funko Pop adventure. It’s been a blast so far, and I’ve already got a few on my shelf. It’s like a little hobby that combines my love for horror movies with the fun of collecting. Who knew these little figures could be so interesting?
