The first - and most important - part of selling a collection is to find out how much it's worth. Ideally, you can use sites and apps like Pop Price Guide and the Funko app to catalogue your collection. This will help you to get an idea of which pieces are worth more than others, as well as providing you with a one stop list of all of your items.
The next step is finding somebody to buy your collection. You can always go down the road of online selling and BST groups, but you run the risk of a few things: being scammed, missing a good deal, or giving away your collection to someone who won't appreciate it the right way.
Luckily, there are always businesses looking to buy collections at a reasonable price, and at the moment Ozzie is one of them. They're looking for all kinds of pop culture and Pop! Vinyl collections to buy from dedicated collectors. Plus, Ozzie completely covers shipping.

This was a big one. Whilst a lot of fans have been (rightfully) complaining about the latest flood of Dragon Ball Z releases, the hardcore DBZ collectors have been rushing to add these new figures to their carts in order to keep up with the complete collection. A few of the London Toy Fair releases were exciting to see, especially considering the hype surrounding Dragon Ball Super: Broly, but this was undoubtedly the cream of the crop when it comes to these releases. A 6” ECCC exclusive, it was refreshing to see a new character depicted in vinyl for this range. Fans who loved the two Shenron releases back in 2018 will be hyped to know that this dragon is just as vibrant, in a bright green paint that really ties together any Dragon Ball Z collection. This may be my favourite release of 2019 so far.
It’s still available here for those of you who missed out, or here in an Ozzie mystery bundle deal so that you can get your hands on another ECCC exclusive release, too!
Little Mermaid - Ariel (Sail Dress) US Exclusive Pop! Vinyl

Back in January we saw our first wave of Little Mermaid Pop! Vinyl figures in years, proving that Funko’s Disney license won’t be hitting brick walls any time soon. With this release, we finally get a look at the titular princess as she appears in her first scene as a human on the beach, in her makeshift sail-and-rope dress. I just can’t help but stare lovingly at this one and picture her reunited with a Pop! Prince Eric as he escorts her to their forever after castle. Dreamy sighs all around!
She’s currently on pre-order for $18.99.
Stan Lee - Patina Pop! Vinyl

No news hit harder in 2018 than the news of Stan Lee’s passing. A real life superhero and Marvel legend, it seems only fitting that many fans are happy to honour his memory in the form of a patina Pop! Vinyl. This release was heart warming for many reasons, but especially considering how hard it has been in the past for fans to get their hands on other Stan Lee releases.
This one is still in stock now for $18.99.
Pokemon - Charmander Pop! Vinyl [RS]

2018 saw Funko expand their licensing in the way of starting a new Pokemon line, but after only one initial release (the 4” Target exclusive Pikachu) fans have been hungry for more. A pattern began to emerge early in the year with yet another Pokemon starter release-- this time Bulbasaur-- but fans have been eager to get their hands on some other beloved favourites. After months of waiting, fans were excited to finally see a new addition to this line in the form of a favourite fire-type starter: Charmander!
I don’t know about other fans, but I for one am overjoyed about this one. It really has me thinking about the possibilities that this line has. Here’s hoping for a 6” Charizard next! (After they release Squirtle, of course.)
You can still grab it here for $18.99.
Green Lantern - Green Lantern & Batman Jim Lee US Exclusive Comic Moment Pop! Vinyl [RS]

The Jim Lee line of DC Pop! Deluxe figures are nothing short of gorgeous, and this Green Lantern & Batman Comic Moment really ups the ante! DC fans were excited to see this one. It’s bigger than the other Jim Lee releases and boasts amazing texturing and detail. Time to clear off room on the shelf…
You can pre-order it here for $54.99.
Lilo & Stitch - Lilo in Hula Skirt US Exclusive Pop! Vinyl [RS]

Another classic Disney favourite, 2019 so far is shaping up to be a great year for fans of Lilo and Stitch. I love this one for a number of reasons, but mainly because it calls back to that beautiful opening sequence where we first meet Lilo in her hula skirt.
You can grab here here for $18.99.
Shazam - Shazam Pop! Vinyl

This is one release that is definitely worth the hype!
It seems appropriate that the original “Captain Marvel” be making the rounds this month. The ages-old DC character has finally come to the big screen, and if Zachary Levi’s hype is any indicator, his rise to Pop! Vinyl fame is just as exciting.
Just say the word, and it’s yours for $18.99!
Scooby Doo - Scooby & Haunted Mansion Pop! Town

Another great new Funko line we’ve seen this year is the Pop! Town range. My favourite so far has been the Scooby Doo Haunted Mansion Pop! Town figure, mainly because it reminded me so strongly of going on the ride at Movieworld as a kid…
It’s an incredible figure with lots of detail, and even comes with a Scooby Doo figure, so you can practise running from all the masked creeps and ghouls that are surely hiding out inside of this new figure…
It’s available here for $49.99.
BTS - US Exclusive Pop! Vinyl 7-Pack [RS]

This release has been in talks for a while, and finally saw a release for New York Toy Fair in late February. Also available on their own, you can purchase the entire BTS crew as a massive 7-pack Pop! Vinyl! Talk about needing shelf space.
I’m a sucker when it comes to boxes, and I know that a lot of other collectors have an affinity for packaging, too. This one struck me as particularly creative, and it almost looks like the BTS boys are on stage, ready for a show! It’s perfect for K-Pop fans and enthusiastic Pop! Collectors alike. This one, for me, was a winner in every way.
Grab it here for $132.99.
The Office - Dwight Schrute Pop! Vinyl

Lastly-- but certainly not least-- I am pleased to announce that Funko’s new release wave for The Office (something fans have been asking for for years!) is finally here, and it’s just as cool as you think.
You’d be hard pressed these days to find somebody who doesn’t adore this show, or who wouldn’t jump at the opportunity to own a little 4” vinyl figure of Dwight Schrute. I can’t decide if he belongs on the shelf with the rest of the collection, or on the desk at work… just to remind everyone that you’re #1.
Pre-order him here for $18.99, or in a bundle with the rest of the collection for $107.94.

Until next time, happy collecting, everyone!

The box comes packaged in a tropical, Summery print that is just perfect for us Aussies preparing to soak up some scorching sun in the coming months, and the buried treasure that awaits inside isn't too bad, either.
We love this metallic variant of the Mermaid Deadpool Pop! Vinyl - he's just so shiny! He's a perfect addition to any Deadpool or Marvel collection. Heck, I'd gladly put him with my Disney princess display.

The t-shirt is great, too, and we love the posing that feels like a call-back to the Little Mermaid. (I was totally right about the Disney princess thing!) There's currently only one size to choose from, but the best part is that it makes an awesome gift idea, too. With Christmas coming up, we'll take all the ideas we can get!
It's available here for $50 in limited quantity, so hurry while it's still available!

]]>The sub boxes began back in 2015 with the launch of the Marvel Collector Corps for Avengers: Age of Ultron and Star Wars: Smuggler’s Bounty for The Force Awakens. The next two launches were the first Funko LoC box in 2016 with DC: Legion of Collectors for Batman vs. Superman, and the first Disney Treasures box with ‘Pirate Cove’ in 2017.
What really draws collectors in about these boxes is their rarity. No, we don’t mean that they’re impossible to find— although sometimes, it really does feel like pulling teeth trying to find a decent price and release date. It is the rarity of the actual items inside, however, which has led to so much positive attention.
For the first time, Funko fans (and fans of pop culture and Pop! Vinyls alike) were able to purchase 100% exclusive products that weren’t available anywhere else on a regular, subscription-based schedule. Most of the items in these boxes still aren’t available on their own at retail!
If you’re a funatic (and haven’t been living under a rock), then you’ve no doubt heard that Funko have discontinued their subscription boxes. They announced around February 2018 that ‘Adventures’ would be the last Disney sub box, making ‘Ever After’ the second last.
The boxes haven’t disappeared completely, however: they’re now available with specific retailers, rather than just to subscribed customers. This is great news for us Aussie funatics, as it means a massive increase in the availability of these exclusive products! That being said, sometimes you just can’t fault a good exclusive, and Funko haven’t held back at all with Ever After, one of their last ‘subscription’ boxes ever!
Let’s get into the contents of the Ever After box! Here’s what goodies are packed inside:

You can argue that all Disney fans have a bit of a romantic streak in us by definition, and this box was perfect for that inner sap! I’ll definitely be adding the pocket Pop! Keychains to my car keys (like they’re not getting absurdly crowded as it is) or, alternatively, setting them up with a spaghetti candlelit dinner for those impromptu Pop! Photoshoots. (I have a life, I swear.)

The patch and the pin are classic and timeless, too, and it was great to see the amount of detail that went into these. Lumiere is the prototypical Disney romantic ideal, so I wasn’t surprised to find him in this box! Daisy and Donald, as well, are one of the much loved OG pairings when it comes to us Disney nerds. I think this is one we’ll all be torn up about for all the right reasons! I’m tempted to keep it in its original packaging, but it’s just one of those things that you know will look fantastic on a backpack or a denim jacket, too. Help, I’m running out of room!

Hands down the best part of this box has to be the 2-pack. The Eric and Ariel 2-pack features a romantic rendition of the couple in their wedding ensembles. The moulds are classic and the designs are flawless. I especially cannot get over how movie-accurate Ariel’s wedding dress looks! Something about it is very nostalgic: I distinctly remember owning a paper doll of Ariel around the time of the movie’s popularity and obsessively dressing and undressing her into the 2D rendition of this big, poofy gown… it’s just one of those ageless Disney classics that can’t be faulted for the period of its release and still carries well into today’s princess aesthetic.

I, of course, can’t speak on behalf of all Disney fans, but I think it’s safe to say that this one was a winner! It has been such an awesome past year for the Disney princess revivals; it’s great to see that we’re moving away from old design habits and introducing new elements like the diamond glitter range and the much-appreciated re-releases of some classic favourites like what we’ve seen this year with Aladdin and Hercules. Here’s hoping to see a little more of this in future Disney boxes!
Overall, the Ever After box gets a solid 4 stars from me. Even the packaging on this one is a winner! If you haven’t gotten your hands on one yet, there are still a few left here. They’re on sale at the moment for $60, so make sure you get your hands on one before they’re gone forever after!

Happy collecting, everyone.
