    You could say it was just lightning in a bottle and the era they were released.

    I kind of feel like this is it. The period when obsessive fandom become like a niche to something that defined personalities. Funko Pops.

      It was also around the time of the Pokemon craze too. Every kid in my school had a Harry Potter book and a pack of Pokemon cards with them. Most of them grew out of it from what I remember and moved on to Yu-Gi-Oh and Tolkein.
