I'm not seeing Blastaar? Am I missing something?
And the Marvel Legends give us a better look at Mysterio and Molten Man than these do.

Judging by how many I see on desks around my office I'm not surprised
Because they sell, like, a fucking lot?
Also, nice touch that they're making Fury's doll have what now is clearly a clay scar in his face.
When did they switch from having the soulless black button eyes? These actually look decent, lol.

These are Mystery Minis, what you're thinking of are Funko Pops.
Their product is literally pop culture, they've been around for 20 years I think it's time for people to stop this
You're assuming he even has normal finger pints anymore with all those little spider leg hair things sticking out of his skin! :O
Sort of, she seems to be the MCU version of Mary Jane but her name is Michelle Jones.
These aren't Pops, which is what you're thinking of.
Funko is a toy manufacturer that has various product lines.
I wish they'd just let her be Mary Jane. The change feels so unnecessary and distracting.
There's also the fact that all during the interviews and whatnot before the film (and possibly after?) they were really adamant that Michelle wasn't Mary Jane.
They are a great way for people who are fans of something to buy inexpensive products to show off their love. Some funko products i REALLY like, like the mini blind bag figures. I don't know why people hate funko so much. It's a great entry point for fans to collect stuff. I started off with funkos, moved to the action figures now collection some figures/statues.
Yeah, these were announced like a month ago. Like I said in the OT, these are infinitely better than the Endgame stuff they put out. Though I understand they were probably on a very tight leash with those.
There's some cool glow in the dark exclusives too. Gonna need the Walmart one:

Yeah time to stop buying this.
They're ugly and stupid. Definitely not a great way for people to show love but a great way to waste money on worthless junk. Looking forward to the day the fad is over.
You know what I meant. This is all your opinion. You can not like them but you don't need to come push your opinion onto others or talk shit about people who do like them. The company has been around for 20 years and is currently more popular than ever, and they make multiple lines of toys outside of Pops. Fad, lol ok. I'd sure love to start a fad that lasted 2 decades.
It's funny because people keep saying they are waiting for the fad to die but it only gets bigger. And yes, it is a good entry to collecting for your favorite things. Some people don't have the money or want to spend hundreds on a statue.
Just because they've been around two decades doesn't mean they've been littered on store shelves that long.
Toys in kids meals have more personality, are more unique and probably more valuable than 99% of Pops.
For future reference...
Anyway, so are the elemental villains actual people or just illusions? It'd be a shame to see the likes of Hydro Man & Molten Man just thrown to the wayside.

I've got a glow in the dark All Might sitting on my shelf that I could probably get around $300 for on ebay right now soooo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That's the Pop line, Funko makes a lot more than just Pops.
That's not how Spider-Man traditionally works. He sticks to things via electrostatic force.
Y'know a few months I would have agreed with you, but I recently looked into the value of a lot of old Happy Meal toys and was shocked at how worthless they are. I mean, yes, some of them are worth a lot (unsurprisingly, most of them are the Teeny Beanie Babies) but I really thought it would be a way larger variety.
But then that's usually what happens when you compare something as mass produced as a McDonald's Happy Meal toy against something that's entire world-wide run is only in the tens of thousands, or hundreds, or in some cases even just the dozens.
As for Funko being around for two decades, typically the mark of a good company or product is that they have staying power, continue to introduce new products that are well received, expand into new markets where they are also well received, disrupt stagnant markets, etc. All things that Funko has done and continues to do. So... actually like the exact opposite of a fad. You may have only noticed them recently as they continue to spread into every facet of our lives, but Funko toys have been popular literally from the first product they brought to market back in 1998.
I know but shhhh I needed an explanation that would mess with his finger prints! ;p
