Yeah, if I had the disposable income and shelf space, I could see myself buying a couple of nerd collectibles because I'm a loser, but like, they'd have to look nice.
Another aspect of the Funko craze that I do not understand at all is the whole hoarding thing- why would you want dozens of these things? You can't possibly like all these franchises that much
I think it might be for reselling purposes, when they eventually have collectible value after many years - after all, under capitalism you can't just buy things because you think they cool, everything has to be an investment opportunity
