Funkos main money maker were old boomer women buying them as cheap gifts for various events (Got to spend $20 at the company secret Santa, oh I know let's get young Jimmy a Star wars thing for his desk)I will never understand Funkos. I bought a few Halo ones, like 2, but other than that, none after. They're a waste of pvc, none poseable for the most part, and most just don't sell well unless really popular. That and the big collectors are usually bugmen AND Disney fanatics, the two often intersect.
Thing is that market is kinda dying. You can see it whenever you visit a Walmart. Plenty lying on the shelves. It would be best to do them in batches, runs if you will, for the hard core base, make them super detailed, instead of making everything shit. 80 bucks will get me a quite nice figma figure at launch, which uses that model and is highly poseable and comes with a range of accessories, stands, etcFunkos main money maker were old boomer women buying them as cheap gifts for various events (Got to spend $20 at the company secret Santa, oh I know let's get young Jimmy a Star wars thing for his desk)
They're almost all the same shape, they all have the same eyes, I think funkos are retarded and people who buy them are 'deathconsumers' like death fats but their consumerism will be the death of them.I will never understand Funkos.

One thing I’ll never forget about Moana is when it was still new all the lefties were screaming “MUH CULTURAL APPROPRIATION” over the Halloween costumes.I derped for a second and thought that you meant Lilo and Stitch had no staying power. But yes, what little mention of Moana I see in the wild isn't even about Moana herself, but rather Maui or the "consider the coconut" line. I guess they decided that it was a more relevant film to use for the hotel theme?
Good lord those tattoos are cursed. The Woody and Gaston ones especially.I don't have Tik Tok and could only pull these off Google but these two have recently made the rounds. If someone more savvy than me can imbed the videos it would be appreciated!
Hound dogs the princesses. It's her thing.
This one cracks it that Minnie didn't acknowledge her.
Disney tattoos could fill a whole thread too.
I get the impression that sometimes they look at a ride as a way to rehab an otherwise unusable IP, like Splash Mountain was a few years after Song Of The South became NEVER status, and seems to have been another way to repackage the concept without the core movie.Indeed, they're not trying to make "walking simulators," they're trying to build rides based on properties that bombed, or are bombing, as a means to cope with the fact that their audience emphatically rejects what they're trying to shove down their throats. Part of the appeal of Disneyland is that they also celebrate the old stuff alongside the new.
An example being The Princess and the Frog trying to replace Song of The South in Splash Mountain. The Princess and the Frog is by no means a bad movie, but it's not the best replacement for Song of the South, and it's blatantly obvious it's done in order to bury it.
Disney would unironically earn a lot of respect back, maybe even help heal race relations a little bit, if they would just suck it up and release Song of the South, completely uncensored, on Blu Ray or Disney+ already. Hell, a theatrical rerelease, in the 21st century, wouldn't be a bad idea either. But I digress.
As autistic as it sounds, political correctness, and disdain for the past, will be the death of Disneyland.

While we're talking about polynesian Disney crap, might as well briefly visit the Cursed AF Tiki Room. Here is a ghastly Orange Bird Funko Pop that is currently selling for around $85 a pop on eBay (archive)

This is particular lunacy to me given that Funko recently pulled an Atari and dumped tons of vinyl crap into a landfill.
iirc Orange Bird was on the shelf for a long time because he was partly owned by the state of Florida or something, but then about ten years ago whatever group owned the share (maybe some orange growers association, I forget) sold their chunk to DisneyThe orange bird Funko is their icon this year for Flower and Garden so that is probably why its going up in price they are selling tons of limited edition stuff for it.
Isn’t Maoi supposed to be skinny?One thing I’ll never forget about Moana is when it was still new all the lefties were screaming “MUH CULTURAL APPROPRIATION” over the Halloween costumes.

Well he does look you standard Fat Fuck Samoan.He is depicted that way in some Polynesian cultures, (Maori), but his characterization is spot on for the Samoan or Hawaiian interpretations of him.
A lot of Polynesians are fat. Really fat. But that didn’t stop people from complaining about how Maui’s character was “fat-shaming his people”.He is depicted that way in some Polynesian cultures, (Maori), but his characterization is spot on for the Samoan or Hawaiian interpretations of him.

Never mind that those three celebrities are mixed race and must stay in shape because of their public image. They by no means represent the average Polynesians.
So diversity and representation of different bodies is bad now? Lmao. Maui is a great character and his stylization isn't offensive at all. I honestly really wish the women in 3D Disney movies were more stylized, every princess has the exact same face model, they just change the skin and hair around. I know 2D Disney had a bit of "same face syndrome" with their princesses too, but it wasn't this bad.A lot of Polynesians are fat. Really fat.

Right? "Half pig, half hippo"? It sounds like a grade school insult, but okay.Personally I don't think Maui looks all that bad. He actually looks kinda badass.
Plus in the movie he is supposed to look kinda like a monster. Not anything too bad but definitely distinguishable from regular men in negative way. It's basically hinted that what he looked liked resulted his parents trying to kill him and him doing his feats to proof them wrong.A lot of Polynesians are fat. Really fat.

Like a Polynesian Mark Henry.Yeah I see him as a highly stylized, barrel-chested stocky strongman rather than being morbidly obese.
