A couple of years ago I watched a few people on Youtube. They were "collectors" of these abominations. They would buy collections for tens of thousands of dollars. They had whole walls and sometimes rooms full of them. There are protector cases for them that cost more than some of the cheaper Funko pops. Some pops went for hundreds of dollars. I've never seen so many soy faces in thumbnails before, or ever again.

It was fascinating ... like watching a horrible, horrible accident.

I know a guy who runs a toy store. He hates these ugly, low-effort things as much as anyone, and yet he dedicates a quarter of his store to them because they sell so well to yuppie dipshits in their mid to late 20's.

Yea, aside from the collectors there's also a bunch of scalpers and resellers of funko pops on Youtube. One man's collectible is another man's investment.

Well scat play is an unfortunate thing.
