Funko Pops, to me.
I understand that some of them are fairly overpriced, but I also really like them as is. It doesn’t work on all characters, but it sometimes work on a lot and there’s so much representation and variety that it’s good to have a few.
If people want to talk about waste of plastic and vinyl, they should bark at the companies who make teeny tiny figurines that serve no purpose and have so little detail that spending any money on them is a waste.
That’s a fair call and I’m the same, its not optimal for a lot reheating. I’ve met a fair few people who refuse to own or use a microwave because the don’t want their food “irradiated” or think that it is somehow unhealthy.
