Okay Funko, you broke me.

I've purchased a few Funko Pops in my time...after all, where else will I get toys of Troy & Abed, Weird Al, and Bill Nye?

But they've gone and done it. I need these:



Mini figures with a model of Jerry's apartment that combines into one play set? Fuck, I'll take one of each.

That's actually pretty smart, and those funkos look waaaaaay better than the normal ones.

If I was a collector, I would definitely collect Funkos if that's how they normally looked, especially if they all had combined sets.

The only problem is that you have no way of controlling which ones you get when you order. If I can find them in-store or pick each individually then I'm all in.

Since those aren't Pops they don't have that atrocious dead-eye look and square head, so they're actually decent-looking figures.

I think thats just a weird amazon thing, other websites have preorders up for each one individually.

The chase versions cant be controlled, as they are 1:6 rarity

I hate funkos, but this is pretty cool. The lack of bicycle on the wall is criminal though.

Giving them actual facial expressions helps a lot.

Because some people are fans of certain franchises and they was a piece of merch of said franchise?

Ah, so this is the next step for them.

Still don't want Funko anything, but good for those that do.

The only Funko I ever saw that I liked was the jaws one.

One of a few designs where the black dead eyes and weird shape doesn't ruin it.

Funko Pops are harmless little $10 collectibles for people to display at home or at work something they are interested in. We have like 15 of them. I dont know why people get so upset over them. They are the collectible equivalent of fast food. Its fine!

How big is it? I've always loved the idea of these miniature TV show set sets, but this looks like it takes way too much space for what it is (same goes for the Pops, actually - they're pretty neat in keychain form, but their regular size does the design no favors).

Funko "broke" me with the Ballad of the Fallen angels scene from Cowboy Bebop. And by broke I mean completely ruined a scene of something I loved. Them doing sitcom garbage seems on brand.

The only Funko I have is Chun Li, which I got as a Christmas gift from my ex-girlfriend's son.

I like it alright, but I don't think I'll get any more. I'm more likely to get a new Nendoroid figure (probably Zelda "flavored").

edit: I might've bought the older Kait Diaz funko when I had the chance. They're gone now, I think.

They don't look like the Funko Pop! figures, so that's a plus already.

Alright fuck I gotta get this. Trying to preorder all of them but it appears most are unavailable on amazon?

Yeah, my friend bought me a DOTA 2 funko of one of my main heroes that I've played for dozens of hours alongside him. They make other figures of DOTA characters but not at a price point where it could just be a random gift. I don't think I'd ever buy another for myself but I'm glad to have and display this one.

I need those apartment pieces. Need them.

Although jerry's kitchen should have had the shit ton of cabinets from the remodel.

Well it's a lot cheaper than a real model of the apartment, that's for sure
