I don't get them at all, every time I ask about the appeal people tell me it's cause they're cheap.

But like, every place I go they are like 12 bucks a pop.

That isn't cheap.

Cheaper than actual figures that are over a hundred dollars

Or that got imported and therefore get marked up to $30+

Meh, some franchises I like are only available in merch from pop figures, unless I want to buy a $100-$200 figure.

They are kinda ugly though.

If you really love a game/anime character you'll buy their $80 anatomically correct statuette and add it to your shrine

Actually don't do that at all but still please stop buying Funko POP Vinyl figures

I'm not a big fan of them, but I do have a Mei Funko. It was Mei, I couldn't help myself.

Yeah my thoughts exactly, those things are expensive.

They make good easy low-effort gifts though.

I've bought my fair share, lol.

I mean I dont understand people who collect them no matter what. But I can see why people like them for a character they like. Its like a bobble head.

There is no point in buying figures if you're just going to keep them in the package

I only have 2 (Mega Man and Protoman) and I only got them as a gift during Toys R Us' closing sale.

I have to admit, though; after getting those two, I kind of started wanting to buy more :/
