I've always hated funkopops, they're ugly and the very epitome of the enshitification and commercialisation of geek culture. This does nothing to change my mind
Yes and they’re yet another collectible product that exploits the psychology of a subset of people who compulsively collect things. I put them in the same category as gambling and note that there’s a lot of crossover with these things (loot boxes and CCG booster packs being prime examples of a gambling and collectible combo).
Yeah, I hate those assholes too. I feel bad for anyone who falls for their business model.
Glances at my Tyranid collection
At least you can play a game with 'Nid models. Also have you guys gotten any updated models yet? I know you guys were in the same boat as the Skaven for quite awhile.
10th gave us a ton! New Gaunts, Hormagaunts, Lictors, Deathleapers, biovores, Screamer fex, and 4 new units!!
Fucken A dude, I know the Gaunts were getting crusty. Now if only Games Workshop would update some of the non-Cadian Guard models, I want some non-forgeworld Armageddon Steel Legion models.
They did mother fucking Krieg!!
I know but I want my other gas mask boys damnit!
Yes, Inquisitor. This one right here. They have been proclaiming something about the Star Children.
At least you can actually do something with those ‘Nids.
