do you think every funko pop pitch starts with "eh i dunno what about"
how do they think up these things
Funko's Trick
Cool, don't own any Funko Pops but do have a friend who buys them and sells them. He may just get em both.
There are some that are worth hundreds. It's rough when you actually want one just to have one and someone bought out the entire stock to resell them

Gamers are clowns so I can't be mad at this.

Can someone explain the appeal of collecting funkos to me? Usually I get why people collect certain things. I'm an action figure collector myself. i understand why people chased beanie babies. Is this the same thing? I just dont see the appeal of these things.

They're cheap and there are a lot of franchises out there that have basically abandoned traditional action figures and mid-range toys and collectibles because they don't sell like they used to. The market for kids' toys is shrinking (they'd rather spend their limited income on mobile apps and shit) and the market for adult collectibles is growing. If you'd like to have, for example, a complete lineup of figurines or collectibles from the Overwatch cast, Funko is your only option. There are some Nendoroids and action figures and statues but they are all higher-priced collectibles that only encompass a small portion of the characters.

Can I get a Funko Pop of The Penguin from Batman Returns for when he was riding in that Batmobile replica?

Why do I feel personally attacked?
I only collect Spider-Man related Funko Pops, Universal Monsters, and Monster Cereal mascots.
I just ordered a 10' Count Chocula and I don't know if I have room for it. No regrets.

However, I wont be getting this clown.
