i thought it was because they draw from pop culture... they look nothing like popsicles.....??
maybe a double meaning? they're definitely trying to do the bubblegum eyes from popsicles though, they're spaced identically

i refuse any other origin

e: i also have an irrational hatred of bubblegum eye popsicles going back to the days of buying them from the ice cream truck and always being disappointed

The only figurine i own is a Solid Snake amiibo that was on clearance for 5 bucks.
I tried looking for it but it seems I've misplaced it unfortunately.

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

toys that actually looked like hosed up melty sonics and marios with gumball eyes would look good and be cool objects. the idea of funko pops was created in rat race scenario when a few billionaires are double dog daring and wagering one of the others couldn't sell a toy that looks like dogshit, and one of em took the bet

What Steam games are out there that are similar to the Mega Man / X series? So 2D platformers that are action oriented and not a metroidvania. I know there is 20XX, and I think a sequel is in development?

HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR YOU AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. HATE. HATE.
