current pop-ulation
transilience
finn and peggy are my remaining immediate list
transilience
(regular finn not Uniform!Finn)
transilience
I have fallen down the pop hole but I try to keep it to ones I'm emotionally attached to
transilience
but anyway now Rose can join Jyn and Sharon's nightly support sessions for Lady Characters Who Have The Unmitigated Gall To Exist
transilience
and K can occasionally drop in on Bodhi and Sam's venting about being relegated to a prop for people's OTPs
transilience
yes. my funko pops come alive every night to bitch and bond over shitty tropes and trends in fandom
punani-dasani
ooooh, I'm so jealous!
transilience
yes, this is what I spend my small discretionary income on
punani-dasani
But look at them all they're precious
transilience
they aaaaaaare
transilience
I love their weird little faces
Spazztichero
I have (a) Deadpool, Domino, Batman, and Miles Morales Spidey!! Other non-Pop figures include Knuckles the Echidna and a Disney Infinity Black Panther. It is all work desk swag for the students to admire and probably not recognize.
transilience
that is the kind of eclectic collection I would expect your desk to feature!
Spazztichero
I am a Pop Heathen though from what I gather. I yank them right out of the packaging.
transilience
hahahha
transilience
When I have a better shelf space situation I'm gonna take them out
transilience
right now if I did that I'd just get lost boxes, dusty bobbleheads, and probably a lot of suicidal leaps into the garbage
Spazztichero
If yours like to hang out, I’d recommend it! Because mine held a meeting to tell me that the plastic packaging is dreadfully hard to get in and out of at night.
transilience
It's on the to-do list
Spazztichero
I was like, that’s fair. I can see that.
transilience
although half of them are superheroes, for God's sake, they're just slacking
Spazztichero
But if suicidal leaps are a concern, the bobble heads are the worst for it.
transilience
especially with the roving mouse-packs
Spazztichero
Indeed
transilience
poor Natasha doesn't even have a stand. just her own tiny, tiny feet
Spazztichero
I am very picky about my Funkos though. I have to adore both the character and fandom. I have seen too many Funko addictions and hoarding...
transilience
yeah exactly
Spazztichero
Oh yeah, Domino is a bobble with tiny feet. I question that design choice.
transilience
that's why I plan to max out at 15 for the foreseeable future. no more than I can squeeze on one shelf.
transilience
I know right?
Spazztichero
It’s like they don’t expect you to take them out of the packaging. But....if THAT is the case, then the bobble is extra pointless?
transilience
it's almost always the girl pops, too
transilience
boy pops tend to have big stompy boots that help balance them
transilience
though I'm relieved K2 has a stand, because yikes
transilience
his little toothpick legs!
Spazztichero
Oh dang, you’re right!! Ingrained and terribly inconvenient Pop sexism!!
transilience
(Jyn also has stompy boots, for which I rejoice)
Spazztichero
Oh good
transilience
....Rose has slightly less stompy boots, I just checked
transilience
she'll probably stand up on her own if nobody breathes too hard, but still
Spazztichero
Dangerous tip: pulling them out means you can squeeze a few more on that shelf, perhaps arranged in poses!
transilience
Oh, and Hulk doesn't stand very well because he has knobbly Hulkfeet poised to LUNGE
transilience
Rose Tico and the Hulk: Team Precarious Footing
transilience
I'd read that comic tbh
Spazztichero
Me too. There’d probably be a lot of leaning on each other.
transilience
and a lot of hurtling head over heels together off of high places
Spazztichero
I ship it. Hulk and Rose, romantic leaning
transilience
a dialogue bubble floats up forlornly from the bottom: "HULK CRASH."
transilience
do not tempt me, robot sir
Spazztichero
Tempting people into truly bizarre fan permutations is basically my favorite thing
punani-dasani
if it fits, it ships
punani-dasani
I... make no promises on the quantity of pops.
punani-dasani
I only just got my second one, but I WANTS
punani-dasani
someday I will afford you
transilience
CLUTCHES FACE
transilience
liu he's so beautiful
Spazztichero
How much is that one?
Spazztichero
I admit, I do have a price ceiling of $10-15. I refuse to play the crazy pricing games for hollow plastic heh. Adorable, stylized, fun, widely accepted and even praised way to show off your fandom hollow plastic but...hollow plastic with a pretty set value nonetheless
transilience
I have spent up to $30 for my Best Faves, but I don't think I'd go much higher than that
transilience
(Bucky and Bodhi, pretty much)
punani-dasani
KING aragorn was a toys r us exclusive, so
punani-dasani
on Amazon they want $50
transilience
ouch, yeah
transilience
nick fury was like $90 the last I looked ;_;
punani-dasani
but on eBay there are better prices!
transilience
fortunately for my bank account I've never been able to get the hang of ebay
punani-dasani
yeaaaa, much more than I would normally be willing to pay for... just a thing I'm gonna look at
punani-dasani
but just look at him
transilience
MAJESTIC AS THE POPS OF OLD
punani-dasani
HE IS
punani-dasani
I may need to replace Maleficent she fell into the hands of a small child
punani-dasani
my poor Mistress Of All Evil
transilience
ooooops
punani-dasani
she has character
transilience
battle scars!
Spazztichero
Stories to tell!!
Spazztichero
To be clear, I don’t judge others for what they spend on Funko. My robot logic just can’t justify it fo myself. But $30 for a couple best faves is reasonable. $50 is right out for me though. And $90 just makes me laugh out loud.
transilience
yeah I am Too Poor to spend that kind of money on dolls
punani-dasani
saaaaame
punani-dasani
that's why aragorn is a someday purchase... although for $25 I might could swing it
punani-dasani
the desire is there but the moneys is not lol
nan
That Aragorn is AMAZiNG tho
punani-dasani
the internet is too full of treasures, tbh
