>>9098844I dont hate the funko itself, but it kind of shits up everywhere it goes and that is mostly the collectors fault.
-Like the other guy said, it pollutes search results.
-pre covid, it infested toy shows to pandemic proportions. I once went to a generic toy show in 2019 and i shit you not, about 1/4 of the vendors were either funko exclusive sellers or they mixed it in with their regular stock. 1 exclusive seller had so much stock, there was an 8 foot wall behind his 5 tables, nothing but funko.
-they call themselves toy stores. There are a couple times ive been driving around and see a small shop sign that says something a long the lines of "such and such toys and collectibles". I walk in and its just funko. Its such a waste of time.
