Livestream auctions are the ultimate thrill ride—bidders battling it out in real-time, and the energy is electric. Toki, the first social commerce platform for collectibles here in the Philippines, has taken this excitement to a whole new level. They’ve created a virtual space where collectors can not only score awesome stuff but also hang out and interact.
Here are the top 5 moments from Toki’s livestream auctions that totally stole the show:
Moment 1: Bigboy Cheng’s PHP 45K Funko Pop Madness
Funko Pops are all the rage, and when Bigboy Cheng dropped the Family and Friends Exclusive Funko Pop, collectors went wild. The bids soared as fans from everywhere tried to snag this rare gem, especially since all proceeds benefited those who were affected by Typhoon Carina. The livestream bid ended with a jaw-dropping PHP 45,000 price tag, setting a new record for the most expensive item ever sold via auction on Toki.
Moment 2: The Epic 9-Hour Auction Marathon
Toki’s usual auctions are about 1.5 hours, but one of Hubbyte Toy Store’s shows stretched to an insane nine hours! Bidders and viewers were glued to their screens as the livestream featured everything from Demon Slayer Nendoroids to Bandai One Piece Gashapons. Just when you thought the auction was over, the audience kept on clamoring for more! Viewers would request for their toy lines and Hubbyte would comply after some lighthearted teasing. Talk about the Toki community’s passion!
Moment 3: TheMonYu’s NBA Bonanza – Over 100 Items Sold!
NBA fans, rejoice! TheMonYu’s huge NBA memorabilia collection went under the hammer and it was a hit. More than 100 items, including cards of legends like Michael Jordan and LeBron James, were sold in a single livestream. TheMonYu’s haul was a major win for collectors and set a new benchmark for most items sold in a Toki auction.
Moment 4: 17 Minutes of Pure Adrenaline, Rapid-Fire Bidding
The Big Boy Cheng China Blue Funko Pop auction further reinforced the concept of suspense in Toki’s livestream auctions. Priced at a seemingly reasonable P3,000 when the bidding commenced to ascend rapidly as the entire livestream was closely watched. The bidders were outbidding each other as the tension mounted before the final bid of P10,000 was reached, all within 17 minutes! This moment further underlined how collectible Funko Pops are in isolation when they become super exclusive and rare!
Moment 5: 500+ Viewers for Kokoy de Santos’ Debut Auction
Toki’s auctions are already unique, but actor Kokoy de Santos’ first one is a game changer. Kokoy, an indie artist and former sticker collector turned art aficionado, drew in more than 500 viewers on various platforms. He auctioned off Funko Pop from across different lines and as a bonus, performed a snippet from a BINI dance for his engaged fans. At the end of the auction, as a thank you to all the viewers commenting during the livestream on the Toki website, he raffled off exclusive Toki x Secret Fresh t-shirts that he autographed. The auction definitely showcased Toki’s commitment to foster a vibrant community and creating engaging experiences for all.
