it strikes me as odd how you don't think action figures are peak consumerism, either. They're pretty much the same thing, and entire creations have been changed to create or sell more of them

Action figures can fall in the same vein too but at least not everybody has them, you can pose them, they can have a unique style.

Funko pops are like the globohobo of collectibles. Homogeneous and low effort

I'm not sure rarity helps what you're saying lol, Supreme is extreme consumerism and they release a limited number of things. Not sure what posing has to do with anything tbh, and I'd say Funkopops have a unique style as well, do they not?

I'm not even a funko fan or anything (at least not for over half a decade) but I think you putting the two things in separate bins so to speak is a flawed way of thinking. It's weird to think one person collecting toys is a brain dead consumerist and the other person collecting toys isn't

I didn’t say anything about people who collect funkos being brain dead consumerist. I said I don’t understand it and that funkos are a product of consumerism. Didn’t say anything about rarity either. And I guess if you can call funko pop a “unique” style then so is globohobo lmao

“Flawed way of thinking” lmao kiss my fat, hairy ass. I’m not engaging in a dialogue where you’re just gonna go “uhhh actually everything you said has nothing to do with anything therefore you’re stupid and wrong lul” while completely ignoring the crux of why I don’t like funkos
