    I get the appeal of funko pops but can't see the market for golf ones. Very strange indeed.

    Usually not into the twins at all but the way the marble pattern connects these two is pretty cool.

    i agree that this one does "blend" better than some in the past. i wish hiddy would return to the "old" days with chase versions on some of the toy runs now a days. i would have loved to seen this done as colorway versions (half the color of the orm and half the color of the capt) with a few chase figures done as the split shown for good measure. grated i say this knowing it would drive the completest in me nuts and really put a strain on my wallet but it made the releases a bit more fun. just once or twice a year would be enough.

    Bring back the lucky bag, which will have a candle, a coffee mug, 2 funko pops, and a small t shirt. Tje coffee mug is worth keeping.

    I spoke too soon!

    What are the odds . . . a bag of Funko Pops and MC Supersize or a bag of cool fightsize and rare Pushead?

    This is intriguing, but with either a few hits and several HUGE misses, its gonna be a tough decision.

    ¥500 gachapon are a no brainer. $200 Gargamel Lucky Bags are usually a safe bet. $1,000 SB Bags . . . :shock:

    $1000 for a chance at a big Mazinger or Astro Boy. Insane.

    Am quite surprised since Astro and Maz cost less than half that after shipping. Are there two large figures in there, or is half the bag made up of other stuff?

    I may be wrong but it sounds like 1 x large figure (a Mazinger, Astro Boy or Ron English Liberty crap) and a whole bunch of warehouse fodder.

    Sorry for the double post, but $350 for the big guy...that's a lot of other stuff. Especially if it's supposed to be a "deal" to buy the bag. Say everything else dretails at $50-150 each, that's 6 at least other items(tshirts, sweatshirts, toys)?

    I feel like this is a segment on Shark Tank

    that pic of the 'possibilites' in the bag was scary given the pricetag.

    and for this, i'm out.

    The mere possibility of paying good money for a Ron English toy has me running screaming from the building.

    past results are definitely indicative of future success (lack of) in this case. Run far far away!
