Here is your chance to add a rare, autographed Dragon Ball GT Pop! and Poster to your collection as part of this summer’s SDCC. But you’re going to have to act quickly!

Voice actress Elise Baughman will be on hand this weekend at SDCC to sign a Funko Pop! and exclusive ToyZilla ART Series Blacklight Wanted Poster of her Dragon Ball GT character Pan.

Only 10 of these items will be created! There will only be 5 available at the ToyZilla booth at San Diego Comic-Con from July 25-28. The other 5 can be found exclusively via hobbyDB & PPG!!

Once Baughman signs these, they’ll never be produced again.

Each combo costs $250, plus shipping, and can either be mailed or picked up in person at SDCC. As with all ToyZilla exclusives, Pan will also arrive with an exclusive ToyZilla Certification Sticker, a numbered Art Series Sticker and a Signed ToyZilla COA.

Pop Price Guide super user Javier Serrano, aka Fjaviserr reminisces about 25 years of Funko memories. Read more of his wonderful guest posts here!

Funko celebrates its 25th anniversary on July 23, 2023.

During these 25 years we have seen how the company has conquered the heart of the most enthusiastic pop culture fans around the world, from its humble origins in Snohomish, Washington, when Mike Becker founded the little business with a nostalgia-themed bobblehead line called Wacky Wobblers, to the current Funko HQ in Everett, Washington.

I could write rivers of ink about it, however, the easier way to summarize the highlights of the brand behind the “Making Fun” style must be visual, and this is how I feel its magic.

In the end, a picture speaks a thousand words. So, it is time to enjoy some of its most iconic moments through this amazing infographic –

The success of Funko is clear to see wherever you walk. Its vinyl figures are everywhere, and it will not be a surprise to celebrate another 25 years of its passion towards pop culture and making that dream come true with the wise and simple words from its slogan: “Everyone is a fan of something.”

I hope you find this information helpful. Have an excellent week. Let me know if you’d like to know more in the comments below and let’s celebrate this wonderful anniversary.

Special thanks to @hilarioalcalde for the amazing graphic

The post Top-10 Most-Valuable San Diego Comic-Con Funko Pop! Exclusives on Pop Price Guide appeared first on Pop Price Guide.

Conventions are coming back this 2021 just like they used to be. Step by step, we are recovering an important part of our lifestyle. I could not understand how to be a collector without the face-to-face interaction and the joy of finding limited editions at these events.

Funko is pulling out all the stops in order to make up for lost time because of the pandemic, with events such as Funko 2021 Shanghai Event, QTX QQ Tencent 2021, ChinaJoy Con 2021 and FunKon 2021. And it seems that the upcoming cons will be full of surprises as well.

My focus on this article is reviewing some of the Pop! treasures found in different conventions around the world before 2020, without considering the traditional ones as SDCC and NYCC.

Since 2013, Funko has been releasing some of them, including variants and first-to-market editions, but others are grails that we would love to have in our collections.

Starting this world convention tour at Dallas Comic Con 2013, where we could find amazing figures, as The Joker (1966) (Metallic) #44, from the 60’s Tv series, and DC Universe Reverse Flash #39 and its Glow in the Dark variant.

In order to complete the metallic duo from the classic Batman TV series, Alamo City Comic Con 2013 presented us this amazing version of the Caped Crusader, Batman (Metallic) #44. Same year, we found another treasure in Florida, Merle Dixon (Bloody) #69 from The Walking Dead was released at that year’s Tampa Bay Comic Con.

We didn’t wait too before going up the coast to the Rhode Island Comic Con 2014 where Blue Stealth Iron Man #04 was ready to go to our collections. Moving fast, without leaving us time, Funko launched one of the very first flocked Pop! figures, which was Ajani Goldmane #03 (Magic the Gathering), at GenCon 2014 — one of the longest-running and best-attended conventions for tabletop gaming in the world.

Crossing the border to Canada, we find the first most wanted on this trip to Marvel collectors, Captain America (Unmasked) #41 (Fan Expo Canada 2014). Although we could find a variant of this item as a Toymatrix exclusive as well, the sticker is not relevant with this one, because both are very hard to find.

The 2015 convention season brought us another jewel, Freddy Funko PlayCon 2015. This time, that rare Pop! was shown in Arizona. A year later, before the release of Ultraman Series to the Asian Market, the Big Apple welcomed the pre-releases of Ultraman #31 and Kanegon #35 at Play Fair 2016.

More recently, in 2019, Funko on its second contribution to DesignerCon, showed us a small tribute to Mark Hamill with the following Pop! Icons, Mark Hamill as The Joker #28 and its Purple variant (limited to 1000 pieces), Mark Hamill #27 (White Tee) and (Black Tee). The latter, we could find as well in a set limited to 500 pieces with a T-shirt designed by Nathan Hamill. If we thought it was little, we were wrong, because Brian Mariotti gifted Mr. Hamill a Pop! with a unique sticker that said Funko Prototype 1/PCS (given to the actor at 2019 Funko Fundays).

Travelling to the Southern Cone, we discovered at FestiGame Coca-Cola Santiago de Chile 2018 two variants of GameStop Exclusives: Freddy Krueger (NES Colors) #26 and Jason Voorhees (NES Colors) #25. Although other variants of those Pop! 8 Bit are not difficult to find, these are limited to 140 pieces each one.

Now, it is time to review Europe. Back to 2013, one of the most limited Star Wars Pop! vinyl was launched in Germany as a variant from another SDCC exclusive, Boba Fett (Droids) #32 (480 pieces) at Star Wars Celebration Europe II. The next, another white whale, came from a Galaxy far away too, is Holographic Darth Vader #33 that was shown in Paris Comics Expo 2014 and Dallas Comic Con 2014, both sides of the Atlantic, respectively.

Another remarkable Pop! that we can find in the old continent is the Hot Topic version of Batman (Earth 2) from 2015 German Comic Con.

Other relevant European conventions are Europe MCM London Comic Con and Japan Expo (Paris – France), which always brought us a lot of alternatives to their original US exclusives.

In 2018, on the road to the African continent, we found more convention exclusives. The event was Comic Con Africa, and it took place in Johannesburg (South Africa). With joy, a year later, they surprised us again by bringing more sticker variants to hunt. As in Europe and South America, all the exclusives are interesting versions from US retailers like Simba Flocked #547 and Hell Boy with Sword #14.

We finish this journey heading East, finding interesting convention pieces on the Asian continent, most of them are Asia exclusives such as Legendary Creatures & Myths series.

Although there are some valuable sticker variants from SDCC, like Tony Stark (Unmasked) #32 on its 2013 ToyCon version from the Philippines, which was shown at Big Boys Toy Store booth, all Pop! series had an important role there, as we can see at Thailand Toy Expo and Bangkok Comic Con. Those highlights include the Freddy Funko (Polystone Bobblehead) variants,  Hanuman (Polystone), Dr. Doom (Metallic) #17 and from The Army of Darkness, Deadite (Glow in the Dark), all of them from 2014 BCC edition.

In 2016, at Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong (ACGHK), the start of the race would be given to the very first Street Fighter Pop!’s for fanatics of the video game franchise to hunt.

We’ll be seeing more Asia exclusives for a long while, which is wonderful.

Finally, in addition to the above events at the beginning of the article, I get the feeling that China will be very relevant in the world of Pop! in the years to come.

I hope you enjoy this review. Have an excellent week, let me know if you’d like to know more about Funko around the world convention exclusives in the comments below and keep on Popping!

The post San Diego Comic-Con 2020: See the Shared Exclusives appeared first on Pop Price Guide.

Our latest edition takes us to the 2015 San Diego Comic Con.

Many of Funko’s convention items traditionally come with two variants: one with a convention sticker (SDCC, NYCC, ECCC and Celebration) and another with a shared exclusive sticker (i.e. Hot Topic, Target or Walmart).

Up to now, those items were regarded as one listing in PPG. Now we’re working our way back in time to “split” the items from conventions past to ensure even greater accuracy within the guide.

If you have a convention exclusive that you’d like to see us split, simply drop us a comment below. Stay tuned next week for more from the PPG Sticker Split campaign.
