imagine being a person who spent five figures on a funko pop. i know they make them look like that so they can churn out every character under the sun with minimal variation, and that if they looked at all right they wouldn't be able to scale their operation. but still they're so ugly that it offends me

Achmed Jones posted:imagine being a person who spent five figures on a funko pop. agreed, the soulless bug-eyes somehow manage to look smug, and the “goofy caricature” style is desperately played out, but the company made $1 billion dollars in 2021 so obviously i’m a loving idiot who has no taste

i think people must've bought them hoping to ride a speculative bubble, then found out everyone they were going to fleece had the same idea, so they couldn't sell them i hope, anyway. nobody actually likes those things, right? right??

I would like to think that literal children would prefer a doll that didn't have such a hosed up giant head, like one of Mattel's many offerings.

I do not believe that anyone could enjoy a funko pop

literal children will play with anything. that's their whole _thing_. little jones and i spent a solid hour in the park picking up branches that variously became swords, shields, flying trees, wands, wings, monsters, and i'm sure i'm forgetting things.

yeah the difference there is the gundams didn't look like that fresh out of the box
