I gotta give it to Funko, it seems like recently they’ve been trying to dig deep on more obscure characters with Some of their anime licenses and I honestly feel that’s the way to go. As much as I love the main characters, when I’m looking at a set I like to see a varied assortment of characters. Heck, I even think some of the best parts of collecting a set is when the obscure characters become rare in the set bc they aren’t the mains that have 100 diff variations,


Yah they def been better at more obscure Characters, like the Ginyu Force but then havin 2 different variants killed it.

i think they are making some secondary characters but imo they are still flooding the market with different variations of main characters too. i think they should make a couple and then make the secondary characters before they come back and make 10 variations of the same characters again. i really like that they moved away from the colored metallic variations. i did not like most of them and did not think they were appropriate for some characters. i felt it was just lazy.

Anime has always been pretty popular but definitely now more than ever. I’m hoping we see some anime Freddy’s.

[quote="Elewitt2022"]Is it only me, or is everyone else buying more anime pops recently than any other pop! categories?

It seems like the designs are just killing it!

I really like this Momoshiki... \:D/

Yup aint that the truth. Nothing is worse than missing a con and seeing an announcement for the anime line (MHA for me) drop. At least C2E2 Mirio didn't get to crazy expensive. Feel bad for One Piece collector's and the wanted posters thats gotta hurt. lol

I think anime has always been a top want for funko and collectors. Looking back at things like metallic whis and how crazy that got. The hot topic deku and now with one piece it feels like anything one piece related sells out lol

You guys will get it one year! Soon as I realized I won I asked a small group of friends what they wanted. As always we all agreed our own collections come first so a few things did become unavailable but I was able to help out quite a few of us
