- On tonight's episode,

I finally have my chance
at winning a Golden Ticket.

Willy Wonka and--
- An Oompa Loompa.

- An Oompa Loompa.

How much you want for this?

- $1 million.

- Then it's Hulkamania

when Corey tries to wrestle
a deal over an unusual mask.

- Quite honestly, I know
his autograph pretty well.

My dad forged one
when I was a kid.

He let me believe it was
real for, like, 20 years.

[both chuckle]

- And later,
it's a bullseye or bust

when Chum checks out
a custom crossbow gun.

- As you can see,
it resembles a gun,

which is what's
so appealing about it.

- Let's shoot it.

- Hello.
- Funko.

Willy Wonka and--

- An Oompa Loompa. [chuckles]
- An Oompa Loompa.

And the Funko Golden Ticket.

This is supposedly, like, the
Holy Grail of Funkos, isn't it?

- This is the Grail of Grails
of Funko.

- And this is
from the 1972 movie,

the Gene Wilder Willy Wonka.

That was, like, my favorite
movie when I was a kid.

But I don't think
Funko's factory

is nearly as cool
as Willy Wonka's.

[cash register rings]

[laughs]

- I'm at the pawn shop
and I'm here to sell

the Funko Pop Golden
Willy Wonka 2 Pack

with its original ticket.

It has some minor scuffing
on the window

and some slight corner damage.

However,
among the Willy Wonka 2 Packs,

it is among the best.

If I do make a deal today,

my fiancée is going
to have both the wedding

and honeymoon of her dreams.

- OK, pretty cool.
You know, it's Funko.

They started in the '90s.

And it was basically
this small company,

licensed some products,
t-shirts, bobbleheads,

everything like that.

And it wasn't doing well and
ended up selling the company

to a guy name Mariotti

and he turned it into
this insane business.

I mean, he made vinyl
figures collectible,

and they kind of exploded.

This set-up right here,
they only made like--

how many did they make of
these?

- So they made ten of
the actual Willy Wonka 2 Pack,

but only four came
with a ticket.

- All right.

"Greetings to you,

"the lucky finder
of this golden ticket.

"Present this ticket
at the factory gates at 10:00.

"In your wildest dreams,
you could not imagine

the marvelous surprises
that await you!"

OK, pretty cool.

And it says right on the label
right here, 2016, two of ten.

Funko is really,
really popular.

I mean, like some prices have
actually really skyrocketed.

How much you want for this?

- $1 million.

[suspenseful music]

- $1 million?
- [chuckles] $1 million.

- OK, the price
sounds insane to me.

I know there's Funkos
that have gone over $100,000.

I've never heard of $1 million.

I have a friend who does this.

He works for the grading
company that grades them.

They don't grade double packs
at the moment.

- Yeah, they only grade
an individual,

so they don't grade a 2-pack.

- OK, but he would
know about it.

Let me get him over here
and have him take a look at it

and, like, see what

Give me four or five minutes.
I'm gonna go give him a call.

Pilot made the first

And then through progression,

they obviously they
got into the TV business.

This was the best technology
there was at the time.

I mean, it wasn't
until the mid-1950s

had a TV in their house.

It was a 3-inch TV.

it was kind of hokey.

But I'm sure it worked.

You see people like this on
their cell phones all the time.

Right about
the same size screen.

- Yeah, I'm sure the picture
is quite a bit better.

- I think so.
- But I mean, it was cool.

I mean, it came
with a carrying case.

It was pseudo-portable.

It would fit right
on your desk at your office

You didn't pick up radio
or anything on this, did you?

It was just--
- I did.

I can get a little bit of
a radio signal through there.

- Yeah, a little bit?
OK.

- You take an RF converter,
you plug it into the back,

you can actually run a
DVD player or a VCR through it.

- OK. I'm assuming
you want to sell it?

- You know, I've been
thinking about it,

and I'd like to find
a new home for it.

- What are you trying
to sell it for?

- Well, you know,
it does have an antenna

built in here for convenience,
it has the magnifying glass,

and it has
the television itself,

so I'm asking $1,500.

- [sighs]

The magnifying glass
does kind of sell it for me.

- [chuckles]

- I think 1,500 is more on
the retail side of it, though.

I'll tell you what,

I'll give you 900
for the whole shebang here.

- Ah, man, I don't know
if that cat'll hunt.

I need a little bit more
than that.

You know, this magnifying glass
is a few hundred dollars

by itself
if you were to sell it.

- How about 1,100 bucks?

- [exhales deeply]
$1,100.

I don't think...

that's going to be a problem.

- The Golden Ticket 2 Pack.

This is one of ten,

that includes the ticket.

So in 2016, Funko produced
ten of these Pops,

and six of them are believed

to have been given away
to employees.

Now, four of them
were given away

at the Funko Fundays event.

And the tickets were
distributed

inside chocolate bars
called Funko Bars.

Four lucky people
found the ticket

and were able to present it
for a prize,

which was this
Willy Wonka 2 Pack.

- OK.

So first off--
I mean, is this the real deal?

- Well, there's
a number of ways

that these are counterfeited.

So if you don't mind, I'd like
to take a closer look at it.

- Absolutely.

- So what's the go-to thing
to look for?

I mean, just in case
it's counterfeited.

- The box itself, the figures,
the window, the stickers.

These are all things that
I take into consideration

when I'm authenticating
these Funko Pops.

The ticket is a vital piece
of the value of this pop.

There aren't a lot of examples,
but this one...

does appear to be authentic.

- OK.

I know there's
six-figure Funko Pops,

but he's asking a
million bucks for this.

- $1 million?
- $1 million.

- All right.
- Is he crazy or am I crazy?

- There was recently a sale
for $250,000.

However, that did not include
the original Golden Ticket,

as this example does
here today.

To the right buyer, it could
be worth more than that.

- All right.
Um, tells me a lot.

And I appreciate it, man.

- Glad to help.
- Talk to you soon.

- All right. Good luck.
- Nice to meet you.

[suspenseful music]

just sold for $250,000.

- But this is
with its original ticket.

And I did pay over $200,000
for this one,

and value has gone up
quite a bit in the market.

The ticket by itself
is worth 30, 40 grand.

- All right, if you say one
just recently sold for 250,000,

I mean, that's what
they sell for.

And you just told me the
tickets go for, like, 30 grand.

So maybe a couple of years
from now, who knows?

But right now, I don't think
it's anywhere close to that.

a whole bunch of people who

So they had this crazy idea

that if they captured the only
real property of the British

Spielberg was in his 20s,

This was his first major,
major big-budget movie.

This is what sent Spielberg
into the stratosphere.

But the crew literally
nicknamed it "Flaws"

because there were so many
problems with the production.

Part of it was
because Spielberg was young

and inexperienced
and he insisted on filming

all these scenes on the ocean

done it on a set.

Forgers?

- They sometimes mix it up
to try and fool people.

When I see Roy Scheider,
Dreyfuss, Peter Benchley,

John Williams,
Steven Spielberg,

these definitely are
not their signatures.

And this is somebody
that really didn't

know how to forge that well.

So unfortunately,
it's not good.

This one's not gonna make it.

- All right, man.

Well, that sucks.

- It does.

So I'm kind of like the
the big shark in this one.

Killed it all.
Talk to you later.

- Thanks, man.
- Good to see you.

- Thank you.

- All right, it looks like
Steve harpooned the whole deal.

- Yeah, not the news
I wanted to hear.

- The poster by itself would
have been worth a little bit

of money if it
wasn't so damaged.

And then someone
put fake signatures on it,

so that sort of messes up
the whole deal.

- Yeah. Well, thank you so much
for taking a look at it.

- No problem.
Here you go.

- Hey. How's it going?
- Good. How are you?

- Got some watches, huh?
- Yes.

More than watches.

They are trophies from the
World Series of Poker in 1982.

- OK.
- That I won.

- So what was the
cash prize back then?

- I think it was
probably around 100,000.

- Wow.

Wasn't it last year,
the guy won 15 million?

- It was at least
10 or 15 million now.

Yeah, it just has exploded.
- [chuckles]

- I am at the pawn shop
to try to sell

two 1982 World Series of Poker
trophy watches that I won.

I'm ready to sell these watches

because poker has become a
bigger deal.

I'm asking for 50,000
for both.

If I made a deal today,

maybe I'll take a little bit
of it right now

and enter a tournament.

- This is actually
really, really cool.

Benny Binion, who was always

a really colorful guy here
in Las Vegas,

in 1970, he decided he was

going to start
the World Series of Poker

and Benny Binion's
poker events.

It's too bad he didn't
live long enough

to see where it is today.

I really think that he
would enjoy seeing it on TV.

It kind of makes me laugh

because there's no doubt
in my mind

that it's actually
a game of skill.

Otherwise, the same 20 guys

wouldn't always be in the top,
you know, 50 players, right?

- It's a game of
both luck and skill.

But the longer you play,
the more skill shows.

- Let's talk about
your watches here.

Forgive me, but don't
they give out bracelets?

- They've given out bracelets
every year except for 1982,

because they thought they could
upgrade the bracelets

to a more expensive trophy.

Strangely,
the poker players said go back

to bracelets because it had
already become a tradition.

- OK. Do you mind
if I take a look at it?

- Sure.
- OK.

- You have to open that.

- So this is a 1982 you said,
right?

- Right.

- That's a year
before I was born.

Are you David?
- I'm David Sklansky.

I'm the author
also of many books,

including the bestselling book
on poker ever written,

- OK.
- "The Theory of Poker."

- Is this missing the crystal?
Did that pop out or something?

- That happens
to be missing the crystal.

- OK.

- But I found out
it's not a big deal.

- It's not.
They can be replaced.

Definitely cool.

I got no doubt
that they're real.

Very, very Vegas-specific item,
very awesome item.

Tell me about what
you're looking to get for them.

- If I sold them both,
I was looking to get 50,000.

- OK, and I can see why
you'd ask me for that.

You have quite
a bit of gold here,

but you also have a trophy.

And I have a really hard time
selling somebody else's trophy.

Respectfully,
I'm going to go ahead

and pass on these to you, sir.

I think you know the people
that would buy these

a lot better than I do.

I just wouldn't be able
to make you an offer on them.

- I understand.

bringing them down, though.

Thank you.

♪ ♪

- A guy brought in
a crossbow gun

that he would like
to get $1,500 for.

This seems a little high

because there aren't
any markings on it,

so I asked Alex Cranmer
to come in

and take a look at it

and let me know
if this price is on target.

- Hey, Chum.

- Alex, how are you doing?
- Good to see you.

- Hi.
Nice to meet you.

Hi, I'm Matthew.
- I'm Alex.

Oh, that's neat.

- I thought it
was neat as well,

but I have no idea
other than that.

- Do you mind if I pick it up?
- Of course you can. Yeah.

- It's actually pretty
beautifully built, isn't it?

What's really interesting
about it is

it appears to be a firearm.

You even have the same sight
system you'd have on a firearm.

But I actually don't think
this was converted from a gun.

- OK.
- I think it was purpose-built.

And one of the biggest reasons
for that is over here,

traditionally,
if this was a gun stock,

there would be room
for the lock here.

- Oh.

- From the age of the stock
and the barrel,

seems to be, like,
late 19th century.

So traditionally, a crossbow
would be open on the top.

And it would have a channel.

You can just lay the
bolt down into it.

But this doesn't.
It has an enclosed barrel.

So why?

And I think that is to increase
accuracy in a short distance.

But what would it
have been used for?

Really, I think the intended
purpose is for fishing.

And the reason is
this little handle on it here,

it's practical.
It actually balances it.

- Oh, yeah.

- So now all of a sudden,

it's pretty easy for you
to aim and to hold.

So if you're walking along
a shallow brook

or stream or lake,
the surface fish--

salmon, other types of fish
are easy to shoot.

And so if you are
very accurate,

within 10 or 15 feet,
you can get a fish.

- All right,
so there's no markings on it.

What do you think about that?

- There could have
been markings,

and now we can't see them.

Or it was unmarked
and likely,

some gun maker made this
specifically for a client.

- All right.
What do you think it's worth?

- It depends a little bit
on whether it works.

If it works,
it's around $1,000.

And do you know if it works?

- No, I have no idea.

I was tempted to try,
but I didn't.

- Are you open
to just test-firing it?

- 100%.
- Yeah?

- Sounds amazing. I'd love to.
- All right.

I think I could make
a couple of simple bolts.

- All right, well,
I'll tell you right now,

I'm interested in it.

If you want to go meet
up at the shooting range,

we could test it out.

- I completely agree.
Let's do it.

- All right.
Sounds good.

- OK.
Appreciate you.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

Crossbow gun.

♪ ♪

As you can see,
it resembles a gun,

which is what's
so appealing about it.

But it's actually very

It's very well-balanced,

hunting weapon for small fish.

- All right. I dig it.
It's kind of cool.

- Yeah, it is cool.

- So I made some bolts.

I just cut dowels
with some steel sharpened tips.

Traditionally, archery,

you have a target

I mean, I made all these bolts.
So I think I get to, right?

- Well, let's shoot it.

- My biggest concern with this
is it is an old crossbow.

are all about tension.

It's got a steel cable

How's it going?
- Hey. How are you?

- I'm pretty good.
What do we got here?

for an F-4 Phantom.

that don't go that fast.

And thinking hey,
maybe one day,

the Air Force will need me.
[laughter]

- I'm here
at the pawn shop today

hoping to sell my flight
manual for an F-4 Phantom.

The F-4 Phantom manual
is dated 1975 on the cover,

but inside,
it was revised in 1980.

It was kind of a
live publication.

They were adding things
all the time

with different corrections
that they were learning.

I also have a set
of 1943 blueprints

from a submarine that
was World War II.

It was given to one
of the lieutenants

that was on the submarine.

I'm asking for $400
for the flight manual

and I'm asking $1,000
for the blueprints.

If I make a sale today,
I'd like to say

I'm going to spend it in Vegas
and leave it here,

but I'm gonna bring
it home to my family.

- This is pretty cool.
I like this.

And it's May 1st, 1975.

It's kind of crazy when you
look back at this time period

in airplanes where they went
from propellers to jets

to, like, supersonic.

The technological leap
was absolutely insane.

First plane to fly
to, like, 90,000 feet,

Mach 2.5, it broke so many
speed records over distance.

Everything about this thing
was great.

This is U.S. submarine SS 258.

Did you look at which
submarine that was?

- Yes, it's the "Hoe."
H-O-E.

- Tell me how random this is.

This and another U.S.
submarine were underwater

and ran into each other.
[laughter]

- Bad luck.

- I'm just saying how big
the oceans are.

What are the odds of
running into another submarine?

I'm assuming they probably
gave this to the officers

when they went
to submarine school.

It gives you a general layout
of the ship.

- Here's where the exits are.
- Yeah. [laughs]

- So how much you
want for these?

- I'd like to get 400
for the flight manual.

I'm asking for 1,000
for the blueprints,

so 1,400 altogether.

- Flight manual,
I'd give you 200 bucks for.

And the submarine, I'd give you
200 bucks for those.

I mean,
they're difficult to sell.

I can't even think of one time
I did well with blueprints.

How about 300 on the manual?

on the blueprints.
