Funko Pops Popsies Story

[Megotastrophe]

Not a fan of Funko Pops and the Popsies seem more gimmicky than the original product. Small generic look with a cartoon word balloon that pops up with usually appropriate dialogue.

And Dwight from the Office

And then Buzz Lightyear. What could he be saying??

I wasn’t expecting that.
Either someone was able to swap word balloons and still keep the toy sealed and functional or a funky factory error. Too bad it wasn’t the That’s what SHE said Michael Scott dialogue

Bought my first ever funko pop recently, Lord Power from the Power Lords. Couldn't resist...they even replicated the vintage toy's torso spinning gimmick with Adam Power on the back and sculpted the button that activates the gimmick too.
Somehow, I was able to resist Gatchaman pops but, this I could not putchase it fast enough. I hope this doesn't open up the floodgates to me being a pop guy now lol.

Power Lords just slightly after my time. Looked it up and discovered that the character designs were by Wayne Barlowe the artist behind Barlowes Guide to Extraterrestrials, the standard SciFi Book Club book. We all had that right?
