Cakefarts Carol posted:i'm sure the plot to this is very cerebral and engaging the Plot plot is pretty dumb once it gets serious, but the opening stuff about an evil cartel of spherical rabbit people building robots for some reason is good. The main strength is that the characters are well written and pretty funny. One of the main characters is a tiny angry catgirl voiced by a woman with a thick Welsh accent, she's the best

Unfortunately the only figures for the extremely unskimpy clothing comic announced so far is a nendoroid

Nendoroid has a weird pedo vibe to them. Chibi stuff is creepy as hell. Imo of course.

Buy Nendoroid Kirbies. ALL of the Kirbies. They're pretty much perfect. Just a not-quite-a-sphere body that splits in half so you can take the entire front half off as a face plate and put a new one on, magnetized for you to attach limbs and accessories.

Funko Flash is less creepy than Nendo Flash. The Nendo Flash is a baby giving you bedroom eyes.

Early on Funko's pop stuff had a surprising amount of unique sculpts and parts per release. Then they went crazy and, well, blue snowman.

The first one anyone ever gave me was Darkseid and I still display it because it looks legitimately great. The sculpt actually has a brow, nose, and mouth, unlike every single Funko made since.

You guys must not really pay attention to Pops as they originally lacked mouths and it wasn't until later that they started getting them to give them more personality. And they still do tons of unique sculpts for them.

For what it's worth, by unique I meant they had more distinguishable sculpts, Snowman Sully has unique horn parts (and also a unique head? No idea if they have standardized head sculpts for designs with head accessories) but he's still pretty generic.Fuzz posted:You missed the best part: the fact that it comes with a little game over screen. Is that effect all in one piece? I could see it being extremely obnoxious to cast if so, especially in clear resin. Neurolimal fucked around with this message at 16:56 on Apr 15, 2018 |

Somewhere out there, some guy must have crates upon crates of unopened funko pops just bidding his time, waiting for the bubble to occur.

It’s one thing to collect stuff like unopened Kenner figs where the packaging is just as cool as the figure, but Funko Pops have such boring lovely boxes that I can’t fathom why anyone would bother saving them, much less buy special cases to protect them.

This will never happen and they will be like loving Beanie Babies and be completely worthless in a few years. Meanwhile the SHF Androids 17 and 18 will be worth thousands each.

They're like $10 so they can never quite crash like Beanie Babies did. Funko's already dying even with how successful they are right now though, so as soon as they start going downwards that's it for them.

The only place I've ever heard of people collecting POPS! as some sort of future investment is here, by people who don't collect them.
