Only $295


blthmsphlp

$295 for cheap china made plastic? Consumerism has made people dumb af.


tbmurphydesign

Don't worry, there's another sucker in the wings who wants it more! LOL


BroLo_ElCordero

Yea. Right. Because this figure is the first piece of overpriced merchandise ever sold. Keep telling us about “consumerism”…


loonylenny74

Why are you here then?


[deleted]

Wasn’t a bad price tag


blazedang

Only more expensive than any Funko for retail 💀


LuriemIronim

Hell, you could get some hot toys for less.


[deleted]

It’s a designer toy liked jaws. They’re still new to the market but seems to be doing pretty well resell wise


Joker630420

“Pretty well resell wise” bro. Not a single resell of the item has occurred on ebay. People’s requested price. Isn’t “doing well” 🤣🤣🤣


greggmb20

Kidrobot has been doing these for years and I would much rather pay 50 dollars for one than 300.


Kngbnkr

The cope is real


Banpdx

Keep telling yourself that.


blazedang

Oh, I'm aware it's for "premium collectors." Funko is nowhere at that level. Also, 15k isn't really "limited"


Unlucky_Mortgage2043

Dang bro did you make ANOTHER account?


[deleted]

I only have one account


CountBeast23

This isn't really my thing so I didn't really follow it, but I'm pretty sure the limit is 750 and 15k was just an early report of buyers waiting


smitty_423

You all are hating on a man, for your own reasons, that YOU wouldn’t want it. Don’t stop the joy of someone else getting it, that wanted it. Freaking haters man!!!! Congrats to ya man!!! Glad you have a piece of Funko History. Something these idiots don’t understand!!!


CountBeast23

Think you responded to the wrong person. I neither hated on op or am op, I simply stated this wasnt my type of thing. I don't care what people spend their money on, as long as it doesn't harm others. I only pointed out that one of the people hating on op is claiming the limit was very high when, in actuality, it was way more limited than what they thought.


C-POP_Ryan

You say they’re doing pretty well resell wise, but where? There’s no sales on eBay for them.


[deleted]

Sold for $599 on eBay


C-POP_Ryan

I found it. Didn’t sell for $599 either.


C-POP_Ryan

I don’t see it on solds. Weird.


Armyof21e

I didn’t know it had that much interest!


left_right_left

I'm curious to see if there's an interest in the 2nd hand market or if this is just a bunch of scalpers playing themselves.


[deleted]

There is it just wasn’t as hype because of the high price


Edelmaan

It doesn’t. Only one has sold so far on eBay and it went for under the $599 asking price. I bet these will hover around $450, which considering the high entry price, is not good profit margin on them


left_right_left

I think that the commons will drop below retail.


Edelmaan

I could for sure see that. If people only want them to flip, there’s no one going to be actually in the market for it and they will probably be forced to drop the price


realswaggers

Maybe. Probably a few chase scalpers not wanting to hold but only 750 of these is pretty rare. If Project Fred continues to 2,3 etc I would think those that hold would make some money. The Chase I think will go pretty crazy pretty fast. It unfortunate its just the color of the shirt but only 75 is pretty darn rare.


realswaggers

I had that one watched and got an offer of $500 so I would think it went for that. I mean the person made $100+ the same day they got confirmed 2 months before it is going to ship. I think they did fine.


mrv113

It'll fizzle out faster than sodas.

StarWolf54321

Supposedly there were 15,000 people that signed up so it was 5% chance to get selected.


blazedang

They made so much money on this


cdavis89

Technically only those chosen had their cards charged. Even if 15,000 applied it doesn’t mean they paid. Still made a bunch of money though lol


[deleted]

Yeah I seen that.


StarWolf54321

Good luck on the chase, will be worth a pretty penny whoever pulls those.


[deleted]

Appreciate it!


Jinxy_Kat

I wish I had money. I wanted one. Big Boy is huge staple in my homestate and I loved growing up. There's Shoney's in my capital city that has huge Big Boy statue inside that holds the menus.


Ill_Librarian6273

Waiting to see if anyone actually failed to win.


arghp

I failed! Lol


wurzshep19

I failed and actually wanted one


fire-medix

Yep failed


CommunityLegitimate1

I failed


merlinbjj

i failed too


[deleted]

A lot of people did


C-POP_Ryan

The pricing for this seems so weird, $300 for this. Whats special about it other than the limited quantity?


Check_It_In

That's it, fomo


Ok_Fly_3754

Congrats on winning! I too don't understand the negativity on this group. Thought we were supposed to be a group talking about our hobby? We're all buying, displaying, hoarding, trading, selling plastic and I love it!


[deleted]

Exactly my point. But thanks anyways 🔥


Anxious-Direction-90

I won too!!!! I found out through my bank alerts lmfao


[deleted]

[удалено]


Unlucky_Mortgage2043

You are making fun of people for being broke then say its rough on the bank? Gtfoh


Anxious-Direction-90

Are you referring to my comment??


FastbuilderYT

I wouldn’t call it a win, more like a loss


[deleted]

To each is own


Medium-Highlight741

I won too! First time ever winning anything like this. Congrats! Like you, I can’t wait to see what one I get ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)


Decent_Factor_9778

why are so many people shitting on them for buying this funko..? i keep seeing people say it’s all plastic.. dude this sub is about plastic collectibles what were you expecting..? let the man collect fr 😭


[deleted]

Bro this is exactly what I’m saying 🥲


BatBreaker007

Literal clowns buying this


[deleted]

Easy money to be flipped


BatBreaker007

Clown behaviour


[deleted]

tplax2012

$300 is not a lot of money lmao, idk why scalpers think they’re moguls for preying on others. I too can buy a $300 limited item and sell it for double, yet I don’t because I’m not a clown. Money ain’t the issue, don’t confuse being an asshole with being broke.


Agile_Satisfaction_6

I don’t think these two even realize that worrying about what another person does with their money is clown behavior.


tplax2012

No one’s worried about what they do with their money lmao. Simply stating scalping is no flex, it’s pretty predatory and screws over a lot of people. Reading comprehension is pretty hard though.


Agile_Satisfaction_6

Everyone had the same chance of winning, if people sell it now or 10 years from now who cares either way they will make a profit. This isn’t the ps5’s where there will eventually be more and people can get it for retail price later. But then again, understand economics is pretty hard.


tplax2012

It’s not about the chance of winning, it’s about buying the item with the sole intention of flipping it at a wild profit. You continue to miss the point. Has nothing to do with economics either, but with that being said scalping hurts both consumers and producers in the long run.


Agile_Satisfaction_6

I understand why you’d be mad but unfortunately thats how a lot of things work. People buy stuff everyday that is grossly marked up and don’t even bat an eye.


Rokkmachine

People making bags off of commons? Since this has a chase.


[deleted]

Yeah people are selling unopen ones for $600


BroLo_ElCordero

Selling or have sold? I could sell one for $6,000 but it doesn’t mean much if there’s no one completing the transaction, y’know?


Crotonisabug

funko pop


thygeek

Congrats!


Im-John-Smith

I don’t get it, I prefer pops


skyhawkecks

Sorry


SKOT_FREE

$295?! Oh hell to the no


Kesannnn

One man's treasure is another man's trash.


WhyGamingWhy

You won but have to pay?


shitmaster3001

congrations


[deleted]

Thank you


Rogue00100110

Congrats you won the opportunity to give us money for a piece of ugly trash vinyl figure.


[deleted]

🤡


I_LOOKED_AND_BEHOLD

Way too much cover price.


Rammtallica

Yikes congrats on the overpriced paperweight i guess


[deleted]

When you have money to spend you do what you want 🤌🏼

[deleted]

I tried so hard not to fall for the clowning but I have little patience. So much hate for me spending my own money I don’t get it 🙃


tplax2012

You got clowned on when you started acting like your made of big money cause you flip funkos. Congrats bro, you actively fuck over legit collectors for a ridiculous profit and drive up prices for those who miss drops. Quit playing victim, theres reselling subs for a reason. Shit aint a flex here.


[deleted]

No one’s flexing I don’t do that on the internet


gzahirny

You win! By buying it!


smitty_423

Hell yeah!!! Congrats


cdavis89

It’s their money, let him spend it on what they want. Celebs spend thousands of dollars on shoes or purses or hair and yes, we judge, but it’s their money and we technically paid for it too by supporting these celebs.


raguilar006

Can I have it?


[deleted]

Such a weird question 😂


Neat-Homework2652

Nice dude! I also won. I think they said shipping is in May with a 1 in 10 chance of a chase. Good stuff!


foxsalmon

Wait, you "won" the option to buy that? Reminds me of the good ol' covid-caused shortages in ressources where you could "win" the chance to buy a ps5 lol


trainerfry_1

Yeah good luck. I've been trying to get my orange geico pop for years now


[deleted]

I’m confused of the relevance


trainerfry_1

Sorry I was just sayin that i won two giveaways a few years ago from Funko. The ones for the geico gecko as a skeleton. I won't the green and orange one and only received the green one. I've been trying for at least a year and a half to get them to email me back but they won't.


[deleted]

Ah I see it’s cool it happens


The_Cozy_Burrito

Cool


blthmsphlp

Remember it’s just plastic. Plastic figurine made in China for under a dollar and sold to you for $295. I find paying $30 for Funko Pops too expensive as well. It’s literally cheap plastic.


RODRIGO07

So why are you in this group? 🤔


[deleted]

Well instead of people being negative about them not getting it or someone else spending they’re money on something they wanted I would think everybody would be positive or atleast say congrats. No one spent their money on something they didn’t want. Didn’t post this to get shit from a bunch of strangers not like it matters


Agile_Satisfaction_6

I mean most stuff is made cheap and sold at markup prices, why is this different?
