Where was he hostile?
Kinda ironic considering the weird hostility people tend to have towards Pops, like they kidnapped their family or something.

It only took Sponge taking over for us to get a major spotlight. Congratulations!
I ordered that sweet advent calendar that went up today: https://shop.funko.com/freddy-funko-24-piece-pint-size-heroes-advent-calendar.html

Just popping in to say that I don't understand the hate Funko gets. Their figures are decent quality for the price and the abundance of license deals means there is a figure out there for just about anybody. I'm not much of a collector, but I have a couple GoT Pop figures and I think they are cool. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Nah, I totally understand it. I was staunchly against them because I didn't like the way they looked. Now I have over 40.
I don't see any other company making awesome figures of Cuphead, super obscure licenses, or basically anything that would never have figures to begin with. General rule of thumb when I ran the OT at the other place was to let people vent whatever they want in other threads and keep the actual talk in the OT. Gotta focus on the cool stuff!
Ooooh, that's nice! Actually not a bad price either for 24 Pint Size Heroes.
I have 50 of them.
But I am desperate for Funko to get off their asses and get us some Princess Bride Pops.

Overwatch is a good one, and I'm loving the Kingdom Hearts line so far too.

Overwatch is one of the better ones. My personal favorite has been the Space Ghost line. I just wish they would release Moltar.
Yeah, Kingdom Hearts has been great after getting off to a bit of a rocky start. In terms of anime the Death Note and My Hero Academia lines have been pretty good. Cowboy Bebop line won't be good until they give me my goddamn Ein pop.
Congrats FunkoEra. Not so much Funko Co.
:X
I bought my first Funko last year on black friday. A Rick and Morty, Morty Seeds.
If i find a cool Rick during black friday this year then I might have to get it

Hopefully the paint job holds up during mass production. Who's Exclusive sticker is that? Final Form is Best Buy.Final Form Sora looks incredible!
I believe that's the generic exclusive sticker they use for overseas.

If I can only get one Kingdom Hearts Pop, let it be this one. Hopefully Best Buy will have enough.
Best Buy is usually pretty good about stocking their exclusives, they usually throw them up online for preordering as well. Since we're seeing pics of this I think the preorder will probably go up soon.
I think some just look at them and don't like the twisted designs the Pop figures get, or the sometimes not so great paint apps, and so they say things like Nendoroids or whatever are better. Well for me personally not so much. Tell me when they have the He Man/Ninja Turtles/Labyrinth/Dark Crystal/Fraggle Rock/Sesame Street/Muppets/Groot/Looney Tunes/Disney animation/Asterix/Ren & Stimpy, etc, etc license and then I may be interested in whatever figure you think is better.
Stranger Things for me. It's what got me into Pops last year when they announced them and I bought some Star Wars / Marvel ones here and there. This year I've only really gone for the Stranger Things pops though. I love the show and I think it's one of the best looking Pop lines, they're all really detailed and accurate for the price.
That's the thing though, I've come across some people who genuinely hate them because these things are "ugly" to them. Irrational hate. Do these people hate other people who are "ugly" to them? Ugly animals? Cars? Clothing? etc. No, generally they don't, it's just these Pops. Very immature, really, but to each their own, I suppose. They have their own reasons, and I dare not to even try to convince them otherwise for fear of getting into an argument stupider than whatever imaginary reason it is to irrationally hate on Pops, or anybody's hobby.
The dumpster fodder known as Funko Pops gets the community spotlight, grumble grumble. /s
I think I like the Mr. Knight better.

Well at least in my country, Brazil, they are at the same price range as a nendoroid...
GF and I have way too many of these, they really are the perfect impulse purchase item.
Noooo! Another Stitch figure to get.
I really want the Looney Toons and Mortal Kombat pops. I'm waiting on HT to get the Golden Shenron so my wife can get it for me.
Finally found a Crota last night at Target, then stopped by Hot Topic and got my wife a flocked Krampus. Was eyeing a Reptar, but not sure if I want to grab him right now. I kind of went nuts getting the entire Bob Ross line.
That's some timing on this showcase, haha.
Personally, while I don't own any, I do think Funkos are pretty neat, for just how many properties they cover. Eyes are still iffy, though.
If you aren't aware, the head designer of Magic the Gathering, Mark Rosewater, posts a comic series using Magic Funko figures, called Sparks. They've gotten pretty worn down over the years.

I kind of want one of those Shadow the Hedgehog ones.
Recently picked up the mst3k ones as well.

Two Chase variants AND a Target Exclusive? Not a fan of the Chase BP, the eyes look bad.
Yeah, the eyes on the chase are a little funky. The Target exclusive is one that I actually want... *sigh*
One more, this one a Funko Shop exclusive.
If they went with eyes like Blue/Gold Panther, it would have looked good.
What's wrong with the eyes on the chase? That's how it looked in the trailer.
I'm definitely grabbing both the glowing Panthers.
