    I would argue that while I don't collect anime figures myself, a lot of them are at least well made and I can see the appeal. Can't say the same for Funkos, they seem really soulless.

    Heck, stuff like Gundam are actual models that you can build. That seems fun.

    I don't see the appeal of Funkos at all. What are they but uglier bobbleheads?

      While the anime figures on the left are vastly more aesthetically pleasing, there's just way too many of them. Like you can't possibly appreciate each and every one of them when you can't even see the majority on your shelf, hidden behind all the other figures.

      Just get the few characters you really like if you must, otherwise its just weird nerd hoarding

      Anime figures can be so expensive and look really good. I've never seen a funko that made me think "wow, I should buy that."

      I know a few people into gunpla, even built a few myself, but the only thing i actually own when it comes to figures is a metal gear rex. Fun figure, but holy shit does it take up a lot of room.
