>walk into Gamestop, a videogame store
>almost half of the store is devoted to toys and entertainment memorabilia
>about 1/4 of the whole store are these things
When did Gamestop become a toy store, and what is up with these toys in particular?
To appeal to 'normies'
Those toys are simple and easily made/cheap.
There was always toys. Its just that those Pop things are popular making things more noticeable.
>>343959806
You do realize they own Think Geek now?
>>343959806
pop figures look terrible
Yes, I remember that famous white doom space marine
>>343960002
>>343959985
These things must be popular because they make so many of them, but I know a LOT of normies and I don't know anyone who buys this crap.
>>343960002
But why would you buy a figurine that doesn't even come from the creators of the game
>>343960002
>There was always toys.
not in the same way as before though.
they used to only have toys at the counter where you buy your games and maybe a rack or two but now they actually have walls dedicated to toys.
>>343960195
Because they look cute
DD is taking up more and more of the market. They're trying to adapt so they don't go the way of Blockbuster.
Basically it's life support. In 10-20 years Gamestop will be on it's last leg and will manage to limp on for a few more years before disappearing. It's the same reason Best Buy reduced it's CD/DVD/BD space and now focuses more on selling you tablets and shit.
idk man people love to collect things and these are a goldmine.
>>343960416
Why would anyone want to collect things that all look identical, and also look like shit?
>>343959806
I wish these figures didn't look like complete ass 99% of the time, especially since they do stuff that wouldn't get figures otherwise
>>343959806
It's to supplement their declining sales due to digital downloads of games. They gotta stay afloat somehow. Same reason they started buying/selling phones.
You'd have to have pretty crippling autism to ever buy a funkopoop figure, even themed after something you like.
>inb4 le stop liking what I don't like maymay
This is more like telling someone not to eat shit, because you shouldn't be eating shit.
Alot of them arent even from games. Mostly tv and dc and marvel shit
>>343960537
Same reason people like most games no a days, because there's nothing better to do.
>>343960675
Well yeah only normal fags and the wastrels that are comic fans would even waste money on this pop shit.
>>343960639
No it isn't. It is literally you saying stop liking what I don't like. Your shitty opinion on things is just as valid as everyone else's shitty opinion on things
>>343961185
It must be hard being so wrong.
>>343959806
Jesus fucking christ. They literally needed to just copy the design of the ingame bobblehead, but they couldn't even do that and succeeded in making something that is neither aesthetically pleasing nor even remotely faithful to the source material
>>343960675
Funko makes anime ones too. No IP is safe from this shit.
>>343959985
I've only bought one funko. A Tracer one and I can confirm the quality of these things is fucking shit
hope people dont think these things will be worth money someday.
>if its meant to be a collectable then its not worth anything.
>>343960195
Most of the time, those creators don't feel like making proper figs/toys/whatev of their game, especially if it's borderline-niche with normies, so they go with Pops, which are cheap to license, iconic with normies because of their safe design, and placate most collectors 99% of the time because they're cheap and status-signalling as being a fan of whatever franchise they represent, despite the fact they all look the same, and you'll have a hard time pointing out anyone specific if you have a shelf of them, because the only standoutish feature on them is their clothing, and hair tends to be hidden by their gigantic fucking samefaces unless you're looking at them from all angles
My ex and her roommate legitimized their existence because they allow nerds on a budget to also buy/display figures, although this isn't really a killer feature for me when they're cookie-cutter as fuck and don't retain any of the design qualities their franchise entails, so they're basically doing what Troll dolls do, only with a unique trademark
There was a thread on slickdeals about these things going on sale for buy 3 get 1 free and people were fuckin nuttin over them. I interjected with a valid argument of, "People who collect these must have terrible emotional problems."
They went bananas.
>>343959806
Who the fuck actually buys these things?
I will never understand
>>343959806
>>343961984
These are just about the ugliest fucking things I've ever seen passed as "cute".
If there was ever such a thing as objectively bad taste it would include this absolute crap.
Physical game sales going down and having to sell stuff that you can't download like shitty toys
Got these two
Not too bad honestly
10 neetbux for both of them
>>343962239
Even a fucking Munny is capable of more personality than a Pop
>>343962194
my 15 year old gamer brother does
>overpriced figures that share no physical traits with the characters they're depicting other than their paint job
wew lad, when can these die off like beanie babies?
>>343959806
>terrible molding
>terrible sculpting
>that same ugly large head shit on every single one
>paint is passable, but likely only because the sculpts are so bland and uninteresting even the most suicidal chinese can do it
>>343959806
In the mid 2000s Gamestop always had a shelf or rack with figures. It's where I got my Unreal Tournament and Halo figures.
>>343962862
This
>used to have cool shit at the counter
>now it's sweatshop McDonald statues
>>343962678
Funko is joined at the hip with me-too nerd garbage like Loot Crate, and they see revenue in the $80 million range, so they're not being Furby'd anytime soon so long as the 'nerd' label is hip and Marvel is a company that exists, basically any company that can be used to attain nerd-cred will cut a pop deal
Shit, DC is probably getting a second wind from them too, since Suicide Squad Pops at Hot Topic were nearly sold out
>>343963430
People found out with the magical nature of micro transactions
Selling a small shit thing for cheap with always seem better at first glance than outright better products, and once you buy one then it becomes more and more morally okay to waste as much money on them than buy a good figure.
>>343962462
The heads look identical.
>cheeky marcus bobblehead in backround.
>>343959806
Ask /toy/ they love these Fukos can't get enough of them
>>343960161
I had never seen them anywhere but gamestop til a couple months ago when i got a desk job at a software company. Probably about 1/3 of my coworkers have a collection of these on their desk. I dont understand it either anon.
>funkypoop
Mycosplay groupwon't stop buying these for me because they know I have a shit ton of action figures but fuck me I hate them. I keep giving them away
>LOOK ANON ITS A TINY STARLORD TEEHEE JUST4U
nigga stop and buy me some marvel legends instead for that sweet build-a-fig
Funkypoop is to real /toy/ collectors like facebook games are to real /v/irgins.
I get one of those monthly "nerd" box things. These come in them sometimes. They're alright, and fill empty space on my desk
>>343965234
>paying money for bulk shitty merch that didn't sell in stores
Literally no difference
>>343965476
80% of the time it's t-shirts and buttons which I definitely use. Every couple months I get a pop or something.
>not having pops
>>343965646
Hey man, if you like the feeling of opening a surprise every month, great, I'm glad you like it, but don't pretend that it's a quality investment and not just a "look at this random stuff you may or may not like".
>>343959806
>walk into hot topic at mall

>>343965727

EB Games here in Kangarooland has a store dedicated only to "loot" called Zing. They have Dorbz, POPs, Hot Toys, Sideshows, basically overpriced shit.
But the fucking EB Games are still full of plushies and Funko garbage.
The EB at my mall has one wall of vidya.
ONE.
WALL.
I own a couple, some were gifts. A lot of the non-human figs are actually pretty good. I also have the Big Daddy.
I'm excited for the Resident Evil ones. Hoping for a classic Jill Valentine.

Kill yourself
Picked up one this morning
>>343967047

>>343967507
you realize were you are, right?
>>343967486
Do it
>>343966806
That can't be possible.
Don't forget they sell clothing and phones as well. Best Buy sells 20% off memberships, amazon prime does 20% off preorders, and pretty much every store does videogame trade ins. Plus digital games are on the rise and their sales are decent finally.
In short, Gamestop is getting skullfucked.
>tfw the rise of Funko and all the other stupid "LOOK MA, IM A GEEK" figures has made chibi the norm
I hated Chibi before this and I hate it even more after this.
>>343962678
Don't fucking talk shit about beanie babies you slag whore.
>>343967486
post please. i love seeing autistic fucks get assdevastated because people like things they dont.
>>343967648
The worst of the worst is Dorbz
Literally just a bean-shaped piece of plastic with a funko head attached.
Reminds me of the beanie-baby/furby period of history, only technically better quality/value.
>>343959806
>When did Gamestop become a toy store
when used games became shit.
Many buy digital or keep discs because of digital DLC

Apparently, its the ideal gift for normies to give me. All of the ones I own, 5+, were given to me by people. Classic "lol ur a nerd and have lots of figures. youll love this xD"
Which I appreciate the thought but they are just such shitty quality and getting worse. The plastic is getting cheaper and thinner and the paint jobs worse.
My figures are custom model kits which is both fun to put together and fun to pose and display. The big joke is I can buy a gunpla kit for ~$10. the same price as one of these shitty toys.
>>343967610
I regret nothing.

>MFW I'm too much of a figure snob to even buy figma and nendos
>This monstrosity exists.
>>343960094
DOOM has little different colored doom guys as secrets in the game, they made crappy figures out of them
>>343968434
I never got the displaying them in their box. I always liked setting up displays with my models, and this just seems dumb. Especially when amiibos actually have a function
>>343968589
I do want to take them out but as you can see, space is low in my current place. I'm moving in a few weeks and plan to set up a shelf for them.
I like my terry McGinnis but that's all I have
They're like normalfag Nendoroids, super popular deformed figures. Unlike Nendos however the quality is complete trash.
>>343961185
what's it like being so reasonable on such an unreasonable board?
>>343961329
Your opinion isn't fact retard
>>343968434
I know about boxfags and their weird principles but amiibos and other plastic toy cases look like shit in display, seriously like your room is a fucking toy store or something
Pop figures are to /toy/ what phone games are to /v/.
>>343966518
Every Zing I've been has at least one of these huge walls. The smaller knock offs are lucky to get a little space on an end cap. It's absolutely ridiculous, it's like the store exists to sell these and everything else is just there for flavour.
>>343968369
>Entry level shit
Call me when they do "I'm better than you" anime like Osomatsu and Jojo.
>>343967868

>>343961185
The "Stop liking what I don't like" maymay is literally a John Oliver tier nonargument.
>Oh no! I can't defend against this argument!
>Quick, post that angry child playing chess meme captioned with "STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE"!
>>343972148
Why do you care so much about what people like?
>>343972494
Not an argument.
>>343972148
"stop liking what I don't like" is typically used in response to a person who doesn't have an actual argument
cheap stylized collectibles, and they got the licenses for like every fucking IP under the sun
>>343972814
So you desire literal thought control?
You want to make people stop liking what you don't like?
Otherwise why do you give a fuck about what people enjoy
>>343973060
>"MMM these turds are delicious uunnhh I just love eating shit"
>"Hey, eating shit isn't really a good idea."
>""STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE""
>>343973229
Buying a dumb little lump of plastic isn't the same as eating shit no matter how you try and equate them
>>343967047
someone is gwumpy
i have a warehouse of those pop figures near my house. like, i thought it was a store, went in and they told me i couldn't buy anything from them, that they were a distribution center.
>>343973608

>>343973428
Right, and the Soviet Union and Venezuela aren't real socialism, right?
>>343973759
>eating shit can cause actual health problems
>these dumb figures just let people know you're a retard with money
not really the same thing are they?
>>343973665
i want to, but the garage attached to it has an Addams Family pinball table. i ain't letting something like that get torched.
>>343972148
Maybe if your argument consisted of something more than "Its shit if you like it you're shit, go fuck yourself shit head" you'd get a better response?
I agree that Pop figs suck dick, but if i'm going to go on a diatribe about it i'll atleast bring up some of the reasons why they're garbage. Quit acting like a victim you retarded faggot and actually post reasons why you dislike something, rather than just stating your dislike for said thing.
>>343974005
Are you saying being retarded isn't an actual health problem?

>>343974171
they don't make you retarded is the difference here
cause and effect
Normies taking in figurines makes me feel ashamed to collect figmas, nendoroids and other pieces of plastic garbage.
What's your excuse for not owning the official Felicia Day Funko Pop?
So do these things make bank online? It would seem good to stock up on these little shits and sell them for 3x the price to literal retards.
>Walk into Gamestop

>>343959806
This Pop! shit is awful, I just don't see the appeal to these cheap ugly figures, there's fucking dozens of them in every game related store I've visited recently, you can get an ok Chinese copy of the figure of X character for the price of 2 of these shitty figures, or the original figure for the price of four of them, quality over quantity people, save up and buy something that will last you longer and will look much better than these abominations.

>>343974305
Fucking this. I started out with a ghoul and alien, then my roommate kept buying me one for every single birthday/holiday. Pic related
>>343975713
"You'll never see him again, so why bother?" is not an argument.
>>343975845
>Cthulhu
There's like dozens of other deities, gods and figures you can profit off of.Garrus looks kinda cute though
>>343975845
Man that garrus is kawaii
Too bad I've seen better sculpting than it's body on a fucking happy mean toy.
>>343975310
Okay, just looked into it. The Halo figs are the McFarlane toys that come with REQ Pack codes. I remember the Souls fig being Faraam knight that looked like a packaged version of the limited edition bonus, but I don't remember. I don't pay attention to these things anymore. Should've taken a pic when I was there.
Dunno, man. Worked at aVintage Stock/Movie Trading Co.for a couple years and one aisle was just littered with these things. Thought they looked like shit but we'd still sell ones based after popular stuff and also during holidays.
>>343968260
>Dorbz
>even less effort put into the figures than Funkopop
God damn I didn't even think it was possible, but here they are proving me wrong.
>>343976571
I think they're like the bare minimum for parents and friends of awkward losers who only know tangentially about their interests "Oh they like X and this place has an aisle full of them for 15 bucks" that type of lazy thinking.
>>343975871
Alright, let's put this into different terms. Let's say that someone is keeping to himself and doing something I don't like, e.g. practicing a religion such as Judaism. Sure, he's limiting his options for what he can and cannot do, think, or say based on an arbitrary religious system from the bronze age, but why should I care? Does this negatively impact my life? Let's say he becomes an Buddhist like myself. What's going to happen? Will we suddenly be friends? Can I rest easier knowing there is one less Jew in the world? Of course not. The day to day minutia of the common man is of no concern of mine and the popularity of my religion or lack thereof is not the reason I follow it. Now, let's apply the same to tabletop games. I am part of a minority group that prefers The King of Fighters over Street Fighter. Do you think I'm going to go to SF events holding up a sign that says "MY GAME IS BETTER, PLEASE BE LIKE ME!" instead of letting them enjoy what they enjoy? If they want to learn about KoF at some point, that's fine, but I'm not going to force it onto them. Now, at the same time I am part of a majority group in my country as well. This area is overwhelmingly full of people that prefer football (also known as soccer) to volleyball, but do you think that just because I'm the majority, I can force my personal sports preference onto those that honestly prefer volleyball? That's just rude and an example of false concern. The kind of people that do this don't actually care about the well being of the party they're talking to. They just want to masturbate their egos.
And I'm sure that next you'll say "well there's nothing wrong with that," but actually there is. Have whatever opinion you like. Say KoF is better than SF. Say volleyball is better than football. Say that Judaism is a more rational and overall better religion than Buddhism. Just don't try to force others to agree with you if they do not want to and don't agree with you.
>>343959806
my cousin unironically collects these and tried to tell me they are worth a damn
>>343976054
I know anon, roomate bought him for me and I would have felt bad not displaying himThe Garrus one is my favorite
>>343976058
Yeah, his legs aren't even the same fucking length so he's lopsided when he stands. That's why he has the little paper under his foot.
I've been thinking about drawing/scupting a dead batarian or varren to replace the paper, but I never got around to it.
>>343959806
>shitty pop doll shows more of Doomguy's face than Doom 4
>>343976639
It's not saying much, but I think these look slightly better than funkopop figures. At leas the heads are slightly more in proportion.
I got these, they aren't that bad. But im not a toy fag so I dont care either way
>>343977321
Yeah at the expense of any detail whatsoever (capes aside) on the fucking body.
One step forward, five steps back.
They're shitty normie nendoroids. I have no idea why people buy them when they can just get Nendos, which are higher quality AND cheaper, by just checking Amazon.
It'd be cute if it was just one or two sets, but it's the next fucking bobblehead at this point.

>>343977423
>they aren't that bad
That looks fucking atrocious, dude. If you spent more than $10 on that you need to go find the receipt. Even Amiibos look better than that.

Nendos look better, you can make them do poses and you can use parts from almost any nendo on any other nendo.
>>343978616
But Nendos actually have completely different sculpts, and joints, and awesome accessories, and they actually look nice.

So what if people waste their money? Are you their financial advisor? Have you ever heard the phrase "Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces."? They won't appreciate your advice to begin with.
>>343978616
Man I refuse to buy nendos but even I won't put them on the same level as pops. Even if I don't like how they look at least nendos have their own faces, different poses, and generally pretty good build quality.
Pops are not only fucking hideous and lazy they're so so badly sculpted and painted you could probably have your average /v/irgin try to put together a garage kit and still get a better result.
>>343979392
>liking anything Japan does is weeaboo
So am I supposed to pretend that the AMC Gremlin is better than a Toyota Camry just because it's American? This is basically reverse weeaboo logic. We gave actual reasons for why Nendos are better beyond "Oh, they're Japanese." No on even mentioned the country of origin.
>>343969876
Closest Zing to me had one of those die cast Votron super deformed figures, a 3 foot tall sofubi Boba Fett and Megaman arm cannon.
Almost spent my money in there then I remembered it's cheaper to import all three.
>>343978616
Nendos would be a lot better if the figures currently in circulation weren't mostly FotM anime tripe.
Tangentially, why the fuck is never any Metroid memorabilia anywhere besides the 'cons?
I got the tracer one recently..
Didnt know EB games had an exclusive Soldier 76 so it sold out straight away...
>>343979395
Sweet fuck you're pounding hard on the religious shit, you're getting nowhere with your it so take it back to /b/
Also, people who buy them are fucking retarded. Those figures are the most bottom-barrel addiction fuel in the world. People would rather buy 5 or 6 of those than an actual decent figure.
>>343979395
That's very zen of you, you enormous self righteous faggot. Enjoy being above the plebeians who dare to engage with other humans.
>>343980119
How am I self righteous? You guys are the ones trying your hardest to convert those that buy figures you don't like? We might as well convert the bronies, furries, and CoD players while we're at it.
>>343980097
I don't believe most of /b/ is religious. That aside, again, even if they are retarded, why does it bother you? I know people right now that have not read Watership Down, but I really don't care. Am I supposed to just go up to them and say "Hey, I know you like Hunger Games, but my personal favorite example of children's fiction is better than yours, so read it"?
>>343959806
These things are the Bethesda of gaming. Cheaply made, shit, and incredibly popular with normies.
>>343976890

>>343979392
There's a pretty big difference between making a deformed character that still looks like the source material and copy-pasting the same godawful design with some slightly different paint.
Funko actually managed to fuck up pac-man with their awful design. Fucking pac-man. A goddamned sphere with eyes.
>>343977886
My nigga. I have Vader and Anakin of those.
Pops are shit, but I recently saw a space ghost set. Space ghost, brak, and zorak are the only ones I want to get.

I'm sorry for your loss.

>pinky and clyde are just literal color swaps
kek
>>343981565
All the ghosts are colour swaps, the eyes are just painted differently
>>343980407
It bothers me because buying them a stupid thing for people to do. Watching people do shit that's stupid tends to irritate people.
>>343959985
The money is you get them as gifts. I realized this that I knew my cousins like this shitty figures for whatever reason. Last minute I needed a gift for christmas for them and without a lot of money I had to think "What's the quickest and easiest thing I can get as a gift that's not cash?". To which these fuckers pop up in my head. Since they cover so many different things as figures it's easy as shit to get one that the other person would be interested in. These shitty figures are fucking genius from a business standpoint.
>>343976971
How much has he spent
I like the vinyl idolz ones
>>343981862
over $1000 canadian moose skins
>>343976971
Nothing anybody buys whether it's video games, toys or comic books are worth a damn.
>>343963458
loot crate is not bad I get to learn about new animes and cute things sometimes
>>343981921
giddy up
>>343982448
If you want to learn about anime you could spend five seconds browsing any MAL to figure out what's airing. If you want cute shit you can buy it yourself for a fraction of the cost.
>>343959806
if you told me this was the design for some bomberman reboot i'd believe it
>>343959806
Pop! games is the worst fucking thing to happen to collectable toys in a long time. Even the beanie baby trend was more tolerable than this ugly shit.
>>343982057
HUH
>>343965727
>Owning over $120 in cheap, ulgy molded plastic.
>>343968434
>Amiibos.
>Dust everywhere.
>Damaged and mismatched furniture.
Basement monkey detected.
>>343982723
I really do need to get a hold of myself. I could have bought more legit shit for my collection with the money I've blown on loot crate.
>Walk to the nearest gamestop
>Store's closed
>Remember that all the gamestops in Puerto Rico left by March to avoid paying taxes
>No other video game stores because Gamestop drove them out of business
FUCKING GAMESTOOOOOOP
I understand gamestop having pop. but they have fucking play arts kais now. sometimes the expensive ones at that.
>>343978789
>weebshit.
Dropped
I own three. I bought Doomguy myself because there is no good figure yet, and Mannis and Renly were gifts.
>>343983820
>amazon
>>343983984
They charge too much for shipping to an island, had to take my business to best buy.
>>343983963
what the fuck is that josuke blob and where did you get it
>>343982723
The shirt alone is worth the cost as $18-20 is how much shirts cost if you don't buy them from wal mart.
>>343984105
I know this feel my nigga. I'm in the usvi, I have to resort to getting everything digital.
>>343981724
>watching normalfags
Well there's your problem. Might as well be watching shitty reality tv as well.
>>343983963
That blob on the left is some NepuNepu tier stuff.
>>343984108
I don't know were he got it, but I kinda like it.
>>343983879
How is this weeaboo? Linkin Park is an American band. Are Japanese people not allowed to produce anything based on any media franchise?
>>343984108
Commissioned it at Colossalcon this year for $5. The only contact information of them I found was "The Plushie Lab" on FaceBook.
>>343983830
They had a Nendoroid WW Link I thought about getting last time I went.
>>343983963
Part 2 of my shit. I also own SS Link and a Pyramid Head Figma but my desk is a disaster.
>>343984310
Man I should buy one of those and also buy an official TOP NEP hat for it to wear.
>>343984220
>This Walmart quality shirt is worth it if you refuse to shop at Walmart
Also if you buy your shirt elsewhere you get to pick exactly what you're buying instead of walking around like a faggot in a Bazinga shirt.
>>343983331
Over $1000 Canadian dollars
He's even driven hours to buy them from guys scalping them on kijiji and facebook
>>343984436
gj on losing the sword of that ds2 figure.
>>343984436
>Only josuke
get on it senpai
>getting mad at superior weebshit
if animu eyes bother you guys so much, why don't you just change the big-ass eyes into dots like your shitty pop figures?
I'll never understand collecting any of this stuff. All that junk in my house taking up space just seems like a waste.
My place is basically a barren wasteland with nothing but what I need in it. I love it this way.
>>343984552
What about all the exclusive content though? you can always resell what you don't want.
>>343984752
>that dust
what the fuck
>>343984752
That's the only thing Loot Crate was (is?) good for.
But then the scrubs started signing up as well to get the exclusives to flip and the market is now oversaturated.
Part 3. Shelfdust Crusaders. NECA Big Daddies are very nice.
>>343984606
I have the second sword but I never once dual weld in Souls so I display Bearer with only one sword.
>>343984653
I'd be all over Part 7 but instead I suffer.
>>343959806
>walk into gamestop
>ask the guy behind the counter if he has anything Dark Souls 3 related
>picks up one of these
>nearly vomit
>ask to preorder Yakuza 0
>he says he loves Yakuza and talks about how much he loves Kazuya and Jirras movesets
>immediately turn and leave
>>343984916
I live in the desert, anon-kun. It's hard to keep up with!
>>343984752
Really, what's the return on an inflatable crown?
>>343965727
I would rather spend all the money you wasted on those pieces of shit on 1-2 high quality figures or like 5-6 high quality nendoroids if I had to get chibi stuff.
Pops are cancerous as fuck.
>>343985081
Ask Stuart Ashen on twitter
>>343985081
They both got fat what the fuck, her most of all.
>>343985065
gyro might get shown this month at wf, if that helps anon. tfw I have to wait till Friday for whitesnake.
As I take it Pop shit is really cheap and makes "Gamurs" and the comic book movie fans feel nerdyxD for owning an ugly bobblehead of Wolverine or Tracer
>Recently went to Gamestop
>Their section behind the counter is covered in giant FNAF plushies
>Guy at register is asking me if I want to Pre-Order MN9, almost crack up but tell him no thanks
>Asks if I want to be a Power Pro member and get Game Informer
Jesus, I get they HAVE to ask all this but I just want my shit
>>343985282
Gyro would be great but I gotta have my Johnny too.
>>343985542
just get the figma pyramid head anon. Johnny is pretty much guaranteed down the line. it might be smart to get gyro before he sells out.
>>343984748
It's fun. It's like how old women collect knick knacks
>tfw all I have is a bootleg Reimu nendo and a miku plushie.
Man, this thread is a great motivation to keep my crappy job.
>>343965529
this is why god dont respond our screams
>>343985450
They have a quota to meet our their hours get cut
>>343960161
its because video games are for children.
>>343963458
>tfw I still have my original Furby
>tfw I tried to put batteries in it and it just hissed and shrieked at me in some demonic glitch language
I know this pic is a newer Furby but it more accurately depicted the demonic possession in play here
Games stop being mainly physical so they have to sell codes and pops!
Could be worse.
>>343985450
They would be slightly more acceptable if they were bobbleheads, but they're just a lump of plastic.
Walk into EB Games.
Purchase Bloodborne GOTY edition and new mouse mat for $80nz
Pleasantly surprised.
>>343982448
New Animes that are hyped up beyond belief on the internet(Attack on Titan, One Punch Man, etc.) Do you really need a loot crate for that?
>>343960639
>Tfw you own 5 of them but they were all gifts
>You dont hate them enough to throw them away but you dont like them enough to start a collection
On the bookshelf they go I guess.
>>343968482
>doesn't like figma
>says he likes figures
You're not a figure snob, you're a figurine snob.
>>343986210
Holy fuck, Mine did the same, but it did all of its actions at once, if that makes sense
>>343959806
They sell game related things you cant dl.
Whats wrong with that?
>having that recurring regret buying 3 funkos and that one during nycc
Fuck me...
>>343986662
You mean rocking back and forth while it's eyes and ears spaz the fuck out? Mine did that too.
>>343962462
Ugh stop spending my tax money on worthless shit neetcuck.
>>343965529
I'm a total retard and i didn't even fall for this bait.
just pathetic.
stop buying useless molded painted plastic, you moron's
>>343987526
It wasn't bait, so yeah, you are a total retard.
Anon was being cheeky at worst.
>>343987625
>moron's
>>343985703
I already have The Red Pyramid Thing, anon.
>>343976890
Tldr lol
>>343987920

>>343965529
>literally no difference
>the left doll's head is 4 times as large as the rest of the body
>doll doesn't have a mouth to express any emotion couple with a completely souless stare gives "i have no mouth and i must scream" look
>doll on the right
>head is more proportionate to the body in comparions to the left
>an incredibly higher amount of detail in the figure in every catagory compared to the left
>has a mouth and is expressing happiness instead of looking like the figure to the left which was deprived of emotion or expression
no difference my ass, you need glasses anon, i haven't even started collecting figures yet
>>343979395
I like your quote Mr. Religious man.
>>343988221
he was obviously baiting anon
>>343965529
>I have no mouth and must scream
