    Greetings and welcome to another Random Mini Review!
    A series in which I try to review something in under 10 Minutes and fail at most of the time.
    Today I bring you something I found on my travels during my break and that is a knockoff/bootleg Funko Pop Figure.
    I used to be a big fan of these but nowadays it's just very "meh".
    If I see one cheap and I like it then I'll grab it but otherwise I'd prefer better merchandise for my favorite pop culture stuff.
    But I was curious when I found the bootleg to see if it was anything like the real deal and a few weeks later I ended up finding the real deal at my local collectible shop and decided to grab it and put it next to the bootleg.
    Then I randomly thought "Hey I should show everyone this and the other ones I seen"
    And here we are.
    Yeah nothing too interesting, just me playing with some figures on my desk but I don't know maybe 1 or 2 of you might be interested in this sort of thing :)

    *What do you think of Funko Pops? A waste of space or cool collectibles? Let me know!*
    Welcome to another installment in my Random Mini Review series.
    A bit over 10 minutes here but close enough.
    I had fun making this little video, let me know what you thought of it down below and
    if I messed up any info about Funkos as I have no idea about all the intricate details!

    Never been the biggest fan of these things myself. I have a Mordecai Pop that I picked up in 2013, simply because it was my first exposure to the figure line and I love Regular Show. Apparently this thing is now rare but whatever... I recently acquired a second one as a gift from my sister who gave me a Godzilla Ultima Pop, admittedly looks a lot better than most other Pops I've seen but I'm keeping it based on sentimental value alone since it genuinely means a lot that I can get anything from her. In the box this time, though, I think it makes a better display piece of that way.

    The FunkoPops don't really meet my taste, especially the humanoid ones with the dead black eyes and the weird head shape. They look like the ones in the video where a man eats soup while crying.
    I'll rather have realistic action figurines, best hand painted like the Robocop and Obi Wan Kenobi ones i have on my work desk. I don't really care about collecting and keeping stuff in their boxes just to make a profit, but rather have them as nice pieces of decoration.

    Honestly, it does not look like large difference in quality. Bootleg has smaller body, therefore it weighs less. Original is heavily overpriced and I doubt modern kids even play with them.
