300 bucks? Whoa. I love Figment, but heck the Big Fig I got was less than that. And that thing is HUGE.

Yeah, I hadn't noticed that the Park Series 1 evidently already is a huge collector's item...I think you might be better off getting other Figment stuff that looks more like Figgy than the VM's!

They do have some VM figment pins and VM figment keychains I had noticed on Ebay. You could take a look at those items...

I will have to check my (rather scarily large) Figment pin collection. I want to say that I actually have a Vinylmation Figment pin, but I am not sure.

Your collection must be a bit on the large side if you aren't sure if you have a VM Figment pin! :shock: :lol:

I should really post pics... it's kinda ridiculous, haha. But I have a feeling that since my Disney collection mostly centers on Figment that others here have bigger Disney collections than I do. My problem is that I have no good place to put up my pins, so they are all stored away and I forget what I have. :figment: :figment:

It would be interesting to see what you have in the way of pins. NaCler has said he has quite a few, but like yours, the pins are packed away. cousininmiami also has a lot as she is covering either 3 or 4 bulletin boards with them in her new Disney room.
I think NaCler might win the most VM's of anyone so far though. The picture of his collection that he put up a dew months ago was quite impressive for only having started it a few months back!

Amy - That Figment that was labeled Park 5 is a fake and not made by Disney. The Park 1 Figgy is so expensive because it was part of the very first series and you can't get those anywhere but from other traders or from Ebay.

Here is a possible upcoming Figgy that looks like it uses Buzz's helmet:

Wow! Fake VM's? Sheesh!!! Well, I am trying to get a few more pins and VM's for trading at the expo...we shall see how this goes.


Question...when trading VM's, do you trade the whole thing (box included) or just the actual figure? I've never traded before, so I'm hoping to learn the ropes. :D

Oh that is very very cute, the spaceman Figment.

Lemme try to get my stuff together, see if I can find a good way to take a pic of my collection. There is a possibility that the ones I got this Feb are still packed up, I will have to check, haha!

MmeLeota - It depends on who you trade with and where. If you trade online with people or sell on Ebay, they ask for box, card and figure. If you are trading at the parks with a CM, they only need the figure, no card. What VM's do you have now???

Okay so... here is a (kinda crappy) picture of my Figment pin collection. I have about a dozen other pins that aren't Figment related that were given to me or hold some significance. I didn't bother putting those in.
So for Figment pins only, I have 64. (that is assuming I found them all, there is a small chance there might be a few more floating around elsewhere.)

I actually was able to score a couple of design-your-own VMs (black and red - killer deal on Disney Store site), but am hoping to get a couple more before we go. I'm looking to trade either in park or at the expo. I just wasn't sure if I should bring the whole box or not.

Oh... I found the ones I got this last trip, plus one extra I hadn't added. So the total count is up to 76. These are the other ones I didn't get before.

Fake VMs?! Oh, that's sad :(
This Figgy is sort of cute :D
Wow figmentaholic, you do have a lot of Figment pins!

Good luck on the trading VM's MmeLeota! I hope you are able to trade up to a few that you really like :D
