Everybody collects something. You might not consider yourself a \u201ccollector\u201d because perhaps the thing you collect has a practical use, or won\u2019t increase in value, or you just don\u2019t. Nobody gets to define you except you, right? I refer to myself and my husband as \u201ceccentric collectors\u201d because it sounds classier than pack rat or hoarder. <\/p>\n

Knowing that everyone collects SOMETHING, I was intrigued by a press release sent to me about what fandom has the most valuable collectibles. Even though most of us don\u2019t acquire and hold onto things with the intention of it appreciating in value (I take my Funkos out of the box!), it\u2019s still interesting, right? You want to know, don\u2019t you?<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ The list was put together by FandomSpot.com<\/a>, a website devoted to, you guessed it, assorted fandoms. Sadly, FandomSpot didn\u2019t include their methodology. The list was put together by, \u201cpop culture memorabilia experts to compile this list, which includes general memorabilia, props, cards, and figures from a variety of fandoms including anime, fantasy, sci-fi, and superhero.\u201d And I certainly cannot imagine encompassing EVERY fandom, and all sorts of other disclaimers, but with that said, here\u2019s the list<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n20. Supernatural \u2013 Dual Wardrobe Card OM21 \u2013 $1,290<\/p>\n

Most of the big fandoms are represented. I\u2019m surprised to not see DC Comics, Disney, or maybe Lord of the Rings in the top 20, but it\u2019s hard to argue with what\u2019s there.<\/p>\n

FandomSpot seems like a fun site too. I also learned that they\u2019re offering $4,000 to binge watch Studio Ghibli films. You can learn about that here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
