I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread

I think it's like Stargate Atlanta in that you have to be on the spectrum to enjoy funkopops. They have the same goddamn booth every year at NY Toy Fair and I hate them and Doctor Albert Funko can go gently caress himself. There's nothing so lovely that they won't license and jam into their horrible aesthetic. Also I think we did this thread at least once before.

I buy nothing ever and never will but I assume they are literally designed specifically to twang the "babycute" spot in human brains.

Big head compared to body, big wide apart eyes, frail neck. So it's something we have a preconceived visual image of made infantile.

That's it, but it's genius enough to work

I think a fun idea for a thread like this might be to find some nerdy pop-culture thing that hasn't been made into a funkopop.



They would not enjoy the thread. I considered it once. I did just make Moss from IT Crowd for fun and he is kinda cute imo

Is that really your assessment of the style? Is that what they were ever going for?

i figured the funko template was intentionally ugly, so they could convince a wide variety of IPs to agree have Funkos made without competing with official/first-party good-looking licensed merch. if the template was itself charming or desirable, X company might as well make their own good-looking stuff

Yes, and I think that it is a kinda known fundamental configuration. See Hello kitty

Fidget spinners really made me realise how much bullshit archaeologists talk. Imagine the bomb dropped right now, then a thousand years later someone is pawing through the dirt and trying to reconstruct our civilisation. There'd be fidget spinners loving everywhere. Cheap ones, expensive ones, elaborate ones, ones made of precious metals, ones inlaid with precious stones, some found near children, some near adults. It would be so easy to say "These were clearly items of great significance in the lives of early 21st century people. They must have held some great religious significance to be so prevalent and valued." Nope, they were a fad. People are stupid. They've always been stupid. Now everytime I hear of some weird archaeological find where experts don't know what it is, but it MUST be important because of the materials used or something, I just think "Fidget spinner."

Ha those floss picks are some kind of personal defensive weapon or maybe IUDs

Is there one of Hitler, and followup question, is there one from a movie of someone playing Hitler that is indistinguishable from one of Hitler? Trying to figure out where they draw a line, if anywhere.
