Waiting in line, Mr. Haydon told me it is a wheel not meant for lovers but for infants, lifting people and letting them swing, putting the world on display from up high

I always bring my tony stark FP (short for “funko pop” ) with me when I go to the toilet and he sits in the little nest of undies and pants and look at me while I poop

I have a Harley Quinn funko pop that I often carry around in my rear end, as a secret. I haven’t had a girlfriend since college and she got hit by a car.

I can't see a use for pops other than throwing them at somebody trying to rob your domicile.

Funko pops trigger a dopamine response me half as hard as the disgust response they trigger in goons.

were they even worth anything anymore whenever that pic was taken? its not out of the question (since collectors are nuts) that theyre picking through a floor pile of $30 worth of novelty items assuming anyone would buy then at all

Some of them are worth over $1,000 then you'll need to append an itemised list of "Named Items" for your Contents Insurance, otherwise payouts are capped at $1,000 for individual Funko Pops. I know this because I had a Limited Edition Comic Con 2017 Exclusive Funko Pop of Jarrett Omega from Babylon Heysus (a South American version of Baywatch, limited airing in 2003 but kept alive on illegally traded laser disks) and because I kept it brand new in the box it had a valuation of $1,370.22. It was number 16 of 75 and I had waited in line all night for it to be first in to sweep it up when it was released.

Long story short there was a problem with the wiring in the Funko Pop display case I had custom made for my basement and one of the lights overheated and melted the back of the box and made Jarrett's face a little droopy.

Real shame and dropped the value from A+++ Mint In Box down to a D grade which isn't worth anything. Contents Insurance capped the payout at $1,000 and then subtracted my deductible so I only ended up getting $500 cash in hand after a loss closer to $1,233.06 going by a recent valuation I got from Jarrett#1 at heysushowsits THE place to trade Babylon Heysus Funko Pops (check him out on eBay his store is amazing).

Collecting the ugliest, blandest collectible ever invented, causing the media to invest in the creation of more of this poo poo instead of things anyone with two functioning brain cells would be proud of owning.

There is a 27% chance that your Paul Krugman Funko Pop is worth between $74.23 and $86.59 but as your Nate Silver Funko Pop can tell you, it's really worth $0.

Sorry for the bad news.

I have maybe 11or 12 funko pops related to some of my favorite media, with no real plans to buy more, and these threads still make me feel like a dingus, so i can't imagine how the guy with the whole wall full feels.

How did these get so popular? They seem useless and ugly to me but If people want to buy a ton of them that’s fine I guess. :shrug:

Does anyone have any proof actual children buy/want these? Pretty sure it's just adult p-zombies who like them.
