I do hate these a lot less than Funko pops. There’s something about the dead eyes and soulless recreations of our nostalgia that make them so creepy
Aw, my grandma has these. I know they’re kitschy, but also kind of sweet.
Wasn’t there a simpsons episode about these stupid things?
Beanie Babies were just boomer Pokémon
Except pokemon stuff ended up selling for more lol. Have you seen how much the original cards go for?! It’s wild.
A lot of the prices of Pokemon cards going up is because millionaire weirdos who invested in baseball cards and comic books and if they’re super rich, art. It’s basically a price inflation scheme where it’s the same few people buying and selling this stuff off each other. It’s basically money laundering. Same thing with Super Mario Bros sealed games going for $600k.
