Add to that the fact that they seem to be *everywhere*, and I start to despise them. Last time I went to Forbidden Planet in London, much of the store (I'd say at least a quarter, maybe as much as a third) was comprised of walls of Funkos, where previously, there were all manner of interesting figures, model kits, and other paraphernalia. Even amiibo are more interesting, but they're hard to find nowadays. It's depressing that this is what geek culture has devolved into.
