That's nothing, there were beanie baby divorce clauses and conditions in the 90's.

You can't bring that up without showing the court picture.

Don't tease us like that.
The gravity of a sterling-cwc meet up, let alone a physical consummation would be too much for the universe to handle. That much sperging/attention seeking behavior in one place may tear the bounds of reality itself.

"Hey we're both beautiful punk trans women! Isn't capitalism the worst?"
"Hmmm. Ugh. Yes. It has been foreseen by the cpus and magichan."

I'd pay to watch that shit.

Two trannies, both alike in spergery,
In fair Pennsylvania where we make our scene
One with a shit wig, the other, amateur surgery
And neither of which are particularly clean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two men
A bent duck and squat pickle does make their squirt
Sickening our minds all over and o'er again
And with such wokeness make the patriarchy hurt.

I would go on but I am no Elizabeth blank verse slinger.

EDIT:

What is a Chris? Autistic fire.
What is a Jim? Consooming desire.
The world turns on.

A sperg will troon
And then will rope.
So does our Jim
Because, unlike Chris, he has no cope.

I think a lot of people forget or don't know that at the time BB were a huge asset. Now most are worthless. It's part of the problem when you spend your money collecting things. You have to hope it's something long term that will retain a value. I fear Funko will end up the same as Beanie Babies. There were a glut of BB collectors, no one in future generations were into it, so as people die off, the collection remains causing more supply and the price and value goes down. I see Funko's going the same way. They are purchased by a certain demographic and is really not expanding to others.

There was a time when that BB shit looked like it would be worth a lot to collectors and I even remember news outlets dubiously claiming that they would be worth a fortune which probably spurred the moronic collectathon. But is there really any false collectors value in Funko shit? As far as I can tell it just seems to be consumers collecting it just for the sake of it rather than because they falsely believe that they'll get rich off it.

I've heard there are versions which are rare that have value or if it's signed by the person it is a Funko of that must add a little, but I haven't really heard of a collector investment monetary boom - just that people are trying to collect them all.

The difference is that I heard about Beanie Baby investing, I haven't heard SHIT about Funko Pops. Yes, people collect them but I don't know of ANY that have actual value and are worth selling. Do correct me if I'm wrong but...yeah... (also if you want pure nightmare fuel, look up the Dr.Suess Funko Pops. Fox in Socks especially.)

EDIT: AAAAAAAND beaten to the punch by Admiral Mantoid.

It will be. That Pop-tract I posted above? Mention is made of "chase pops" which implies that there are some that consoomers pant after more than others.

The thing is though, whereas Beanie Babies could be recycled as something you might give to a child or something like that, pops really aren't. They're just the same fucking figure painted differently.
