Being old enough to remember beany babies and other collectibles it always made me SMH when I see people talking about the value of Pops.

Like, it's only valuable it someone wants to buy it. What happens when/if Funko goes under? Pops will be worthless for a long time and then because they all get thrown out, there will be a random revival in 10-15 years and they MIGHT be valuable again.

People on reddit talking about Pops like it's a retirement plan and I can't help but laugh at them sometimes.

That's not entirely true. The company isn't the value - it's the value of the specific Pops to the buyer, and the scarcity of it. - JaxSean Mar 2, 12:29 2
- That's true. But a lot pops (not all) are much closer to beanie babies than not in the volume they are produced. - sycor Mar 2, 12:34 1
