I was at SDCC this year and I was amazed at how many booths had Funko pops, which was about 20-30% of the booths and there was a line for the Funko area, jam packed with people. I over heard people saying they found some rare ones or newly released that were hard to find.

A few years ago someone bought me a Squirtle Funko Pop, since Squirtle is the best, and I opened it and took it out of the box. They proceeded to freak out that I ruined is value by taking it out of the box…

    I don’t think it’s an unpopular opinion. It seems like a lot of people have given up on collecting them over the past couple years.

    The people who never collected them to begin with probably have one or two reasons.

    This opinion is only unpopular in the Funko Pop collectors mind.

    Brickheadz are pretty cool though, imo. They can be easily customized and are a nice intro to Lego for kids and such.

    Does anyone actually think those Funko Pops are worth anything besides whatever aesthetic value you put on them?

      They have some aesthetic value and they also sell for quite a bit. What other kind of worth could they possible have
