Van Barneveld reveals addiction to collecting Funko-pops: "It really went too far"

Raymond van Barneveld is known for collecting titles on the oche but at one point, it was collecting Funko Pops that was a vice for the five time World Champion with over 1,500 in his house.
Van Barneveld started collecting all kinds of things at a young age. "As a child I already enjoyed collecting lego. During my darts career I also kept just about everything, from program books to trophies and all kinds of memorabilia," 'Barney' said on the podcast Everybody Loves Darts.
1,500 Funko pops
That collecting frenzy did go a long way. "At one point I had about 1,500 Funko pops in the house. Everywhere I went I bought these, I even bought extra suitcases on vacation so I could take them with me."
"Those were worth a lot, but in the end I had to sell them due to lack of space in my house. Since then I have also tried to collect fewer things, because it really went too far," Van Barneveld can now laugh about it.
