Real serious nerd rant here, but who collects those things? They look like cheap, mass produced crap. Nendoroids and Popup Parade are so much better.

I know a guy with a collection. I feel like asking why would ruin friendships.

They usually keep them because they might increase in value (I know a guy that does this)

I often wonder what people like this would be like if they had access to the internet and an endless feed of cat memes.

Like would Hitler have invaded Poland if he could have just put his paintings on insta or tumblr?

Fun fact: the ground floor of the house Karl Marx lived in is now a 1€ shop

I want to see people splitting up their Funko pop collection during a divorce like that pathetic couple back then with their Beanie babies.

What, these things are also supposed to be valuable? I've always found them such an eye sore

Plastic waste

He would believe that everyone is entitled to their own FunkoPop collection, provided by the state.

He'd be a nihilist.

Anything made for the main purpose of collecting is rubbish. Anything collectors touch become utter rubbish, let alone if it was made for them in the first place. Of course, you knows what type of collectors i mean.
