I will obey these strict limits on pop buying, except for all the many frequent times I am allowed to go absolutely hog wild

They had to cut Funko pops out of the new toy story movie because all they did was scream in pain and beg for death. The animators and voice actors didn't even make these scenes, they just show up as clips in editing already inserted into the project file.

I've got the three best x-men for the top of my bookcase and the Sanderson sisters for Halloween season, I think that's enough pops for me

Funko does make real figurines too. Not hugely high quality, but they do actually look like the characters. I had no idea this Dr Wily was a Funko thing until I took it home and looked at the bottom of the foot.

E: I guess they might have given up by now and gone all in on pops, this was a few years ago

I mean you can just go on Funko's website and see they have other non-Pop lines.

There's a decent line of Sonic figures going atm. About £10 for something smallish that's good quality and well painted, £20 for something a bit bigger with some articulation and a usually pretty superfluous accessory.

the only figures I have are a Kirby and Mega Man X nendo, They hang out on my monitor stand and judge me. My cat hates Gunpla so that saves me from the temptation to buy them. I have a little gundam mass grave in my closet, so much carnage

The only good Funko pop is Jake from Adventure Time because it has his actual eyes instead of those soulless dead big dots but even that is kind of a stretch

This is the only figurine anyone needs anyway:

kinda thought this might be cancelled after recent Funko layoffs, and it feels like something that should have been released a good 4-5 years ago, but I guess it does have The Thing content going for it at least

This feels like something that would have been part of that whole Toys To Life subgenre that started with Skylanders and died with Lego Dimensions and Disney Infinity like 10 years ago.

Why hasn't the googly eye corporation made a line of vinyl objects with googly eyes for eyes?

Probably can't get enough of a lockdown on the intellectual property rights on googly-eyed products for an investment in a physical brand to be appealing

E: oh, might run into issues with an an existing product

the only good funko is Rathalos



cause it's just rathalos with a slightly bigger head, which makes him cuter

because the idea of funko pops is they're supposed to look like those 90s popsicles that had the bubblegum eyes. that's why they're called pops

googly eyes are sold in such a way that you can just slap them on anything already, and they already come in a bunch of different sizes
