iCollectables Opens in Williamsburg Premium Stores

WILLIAMSBURG The Williamsburg Premium Outlets is now home to iCollectables, a new store specializing in collectibles.

The business was started by Andrew Mooney and his father.

Andrew traces his roots in collectibles to 2015, when his parents bought him Buffy the Vampire Slayer Funko Pops, which introduced him to Funko. From there, Mooney began choosing characters for franchises he enjoyed. His father was also a vintage toy collector in the 90s. Soon, the duo grew collecting into a business.

“We were going to Comic Cons and having fun and we realized that there wasn't really a market for Funko Pops there yet, and starting in 2015 that year, we decided, 'Hey, let's try it,'” Mooney recalled. “We went to the VA ComiCon in Richmond and did very well. We thought, “Hey, this is something we can do to make money on the side.” »

Mooney really started taking the business seriously in 2020, growing it from a side hustle to a full-fledged business. It began expanding into action figures and plush toys to build a complete toy store. Mooney opened her storefront on June 1st.

In addition to selling the standard collectibles, Mooney and his father also sell signed collectibles in the store. When they sell at conventions, they also collect autographs from famous guests to add to the store.

“Once again it snowballed, we went from collecting autographs and doing things like that to adding props and so on, because we realized that autographs are were selling well,” Mooney said.

On a case-by-case basis, he said the company would consider purchasing items if they have been authenticated by a reputable third party. It also offers an online form for individuals wishing to sell Funko Pop collections.

Some of Mooney's favorite pieces currently for sale in the store are an original Aladdin movie poster signed by the cast of Aladdin and Jasmine, as well as a green rotary phone signed by Olivia Hussey, who was featured in the original Black Christmas.

The veteran-owned store, located in the Williamsburg Premium Outlets, is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday to Thursday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday. For more information about the company, visit its official site.
