This guy sits in his consoomer den and stares at plastic.

Funko Pop/Star Wars is the ultimate consoomer pay pig. When you think you’ve seen it all, a consoomer refits his basement and lines the walls with 10 cent Chinese plastic toys. This collection makes me physically sick to look at.

He had to beg his wife for 2 years to buy something that costs under $200.
actually that specific millenium falcon is a special $700 fucking dollar one IIRC. That's a lot of fucking money for lego but it's a huge fucking model so it kind of evens out. Still is fucking nutso of a price unless you're a wealthy and dedicated hobbyist or consoomer.

EDIT: 800 DOLLARS WAS BEATEN TOT HE PUNCH WITHOUT NOTICING FUCK
 
This consoomer spends his days shouting into the void, desperately seeking validation. No one cares or notices. He’s one of the endless sea of clones. When he dies none of that plastic trash will be worth more than a dollar. Anyone old enough has seen these trends. It’s a cycle.

It bothers me that they keep the funko's in the box. Kinda proves the fact the tards don't even like them, when they rather want to watch the packaging.
At least collectors of anime figures keep the packaging in a storage space, and display the actual figure.
 
What's with these "kawaii" aesthetic videos and always featuring the same six or seven Pokémon? It's always Pikachu, the Eeveelutions, or some other cutesy Pokémon from Kanto. If you're gonna consoom at least be diverse. I wanna see a guy go all autistic and have a ton of shelves with merchandise dedicated to all 800+ Pokémon. Now that would be funny.

Box “value” is a whole other part of figure collecting autism in itself, but it’s funnier with Funkos. Every time I see massive walls of boxed ones, I think about how a friend’s had two effectively fall apart once they’re taken out of those boxes. Those boxes might as well be the difference between life and death for a Funko.

I don't know how long your friend had them in the boxes, but the plastic do actually break down. Because it cannot "breathe", haven't read other than the plastic becoming sticky. So it might be an other unrelated problem.

Schrödinger's Funko is a good name though.
 
What the fuck. Legos really cost a lot now. You could buy furniture for a whole room for that much money, or pay a month of rent in a big city.

Hell, to put this in more perspective a round trip ticket to Hawaii is cheaper than this lego set.
its all 'the brand' which is Legos...

This was the most disturbing picture, in my humble opinion. He's a soy wojak come to life. Why does he need his wife's permission to buy a toy? Does this man child not have a job and needs to ask his wifey for allowance money?
He posted a follow-up the next day showing the inside:

And I guess he has a job, or he did a year ago anyway:

Everyone is retarded here.

I’m definitely aware of plastic breaking down with time (plastic “sweating” and getting sticky is a huge issue with older plastic figurines in general), just not “this entire figure will die on your table if you let it breathe” levels of decay. As far as I’m aware said friend got them new, but I have no idea how long they may have been sitting boxed, and regardless I don’t think they’re supposed to fall apart.

For those of you fortunate enough not to be informed on the subject, Ash Parrish is the worst writer at Kotaku (stiff competition, I know). Discussion about an article she wrote on A&N led me to go through some of her work, and I found this article proving that it's not just white soymales who can consoom 'till they drop. If you're looking for some bonus content, some people in the comments call her out for her race-baiting, and she actually goes down there and responds herself.

Guiness as a brand is just a joke at this point, but the specificity of this makes the award even sillier. She doesn't own the most games, games consoles, or even handhelds, but specifically LCD games, some of the least fondly remembered out of any game systems because they were made as cheap as possible and had the most rudimentary hardware. I doubt Guiness is even the one who made this a race thing, since they give hyper specific accolades like this to anybody. Kotaku is somehow even dumber than they are.

Edit: Skipping around their clip it seems like they definitely didn't or it's at least not an in your face line. It's not even in the title of that video. And Kotaku caring about Guiness at this point after the fiasco with speedrunning metrics making their game related awards have a pretty low reputation is either ignorance or just malice against the evil gamer responsible for the gamergatelocaust. Their need to defend the shitty article adds to this possibility.
