Marvel Collector's Corp Founder Gift Reveal

Thanks to Louie M. for sending this over.
A year ago I was trying to decide if I should pony up $200 for a year subscription to Marvel Collector Corps or just sign up to pay by the box. The only incentive to pay the year upfront was that a bonus Founders gift would be sent after your anniversary. Sounds enticing, but the picture on the website was a generic gold Captain America Statue that looked like a goofy Oscar.
Could that really be the bonus gift?

So I sent an email and customer service responded saying the image was “representative” but the actual figure has yet to be determined. I also saw a response on social media where they responded to someone promising the figure would be epic. I think they meant to say “That pic is exactly what you are getting!” Here is the statue in all of its golden glory. It’s a really good size at 8 inches tall, but wished they could have done something a little more creative.
I think the Hulkbuster is coolest Pop! ever created, so was hoping for something along those lines. Not that I have regrets, I have fully enjoyed the bi-monthly boxes. The figure is currently going for $40-$50 on the aftermarket.

  2. Yep, and they were selling for as high as 100 at first but i usually get funkos stuff late so i wasnt able to capitalize. I may just try to exchange it locally for some pops i want.

  3. For being Marvel and how huge the company is, they sure went cheap on this figure. Unless it’s made of real gold lol then that would be well worth it lol

  5. I am a Collector Corps. founder as well and I received this in the mail too. At first I was disappointed. I would’ve much rather receive an exclusive gold pop, but then I realized that only Founders get this. Anybody who didn’t sign on for a whole year or signed on after that first month (even if they signed on for a whole year) wouldn’t get this item, which makes it rare to me. I am planning on getting my yearly subscription renewed because I actually think this is the best subscription box out there, but I’m sure some people will drop out. Therefore the 2nd Founders yearly item will be even rarer. Made receiving this a bit more enticing, even if it is kind of like a trophy. I guess it kind of really means something now. Founders started from the very beginning and helped kickstart this thing.

    1. I agree it’s the best box out there and consistent quality. Which is why i dont have any major regrets becuase the boxes were worth it even without the gift

  6. I agree with you guys on the whole founders thing but it’s Mavel. They could of given a little More thought. I mean they have some of the best artist in the industry. U know. I am not hating on the item just the fact that marvel went so cheap on it. Just my opinion
