Why don't you take a seat right over there?

Why is this shit still around?
Please tell me there isn't some dumb speculator market for funkos like with fucking beanie babies

If you go to /toy/ on halfchan there's an eternal general thread dedicated to Pops. It's insane.

:^)

I'm convinced there's some gorilla marketing going on where they pay use a bunch of bots to order tons of these things to inflate sales data and then just remold them into new ones to inflate supply.

friends brother im friends with on kikebook who is a total loser collects these. Has at least two or three hundred, and neglects his bills to buy 'rare' ones

its very, very sad

Their marketing strategy seems pretty simple.
1. make affordable figures of everything, including lots of weird niche shit that people can't easily get figures of elsewhere
2. stock them in places normalfags can find them, instead of forcing people to scour specialist stores and websites

Because their audience is the fake geek/nerd crowd who wear The Big Bang Theory shirts and are subbed to I Fucking Love Science.

looks fake
