Even besides the plastic aspect I don't get why people like it so much. Even if you like the IP that the figurines are of they look like shit.

Dumbasses be thinking this trash is going to gain value over time 😂

There's no way this is true. These things are advertised with abundance in mind. There's always a never ending amount of them at any store that stocks them.

To protect them from dust

When I was a kid living in a shitty apartment, my neighbor's 7year old daughter collected beanie babies. I hear they just bought their 14th Gulfstream III this year. 🥳

Using the same labour and materials they could produce normal looking figures instead of those deformed abominations, which would be actually pretty fine, having so many different ones in the same scale and series.

It's crazy how they found a way to sell ~~toys~~ little useless plastic things to adults. Capitalism is all about expanding the markets and finding new consumers, like how they found a way to market cigarettes to children.

Edited toys out because actual toys one can play with can be cool.

They're so wasteful. We have to save the climate and that means cutting this wasteful production
