They are aDORBz-able!



This fun little line of figures comes from Funko! in a series called "Dorbz." (I am not going to cross that threshold of why.)

I had a hell of a time tracking these down in the wild. I found Stay Puft via GameStop at the Mall of America while I tracked down treasures in Minneapolis. As for the guys, I begged and pleaded every GameStop employee to look them up in their systems but they oddly aren't listed. They carry every other fucking Dorbz character and even TWO Stay Pufts AND the ECTO-1.

What the holy hell, GameStop?

Pop Funko: He's Escaped Edition


FUNKO! Toys owns a large part of my soul.

These cute vinyl figures have been something that has found their way into my heart and onto my shelves. The stylized characters are translated from so many sources that I had to promise my wife that I'd stop buying all the ones I liked.

But Ghostbusters. There's my loophole.

POP Funko! Willy Wonka



I find Funko Toys' "POP"series to be pretty awesome. I enjoy finding the characters and collecting them. In my years of collecting them, I have also been able to make some extra money for other collections because some of these little buggers go for serious coin. 

Willy Wonka will be sticking around in my collection as I absolutely adore Gene Wilder. His rendition of the magical man in the purple coat is borderline psychotic but still loveable. I found Depp's Wonka to be zany but with no love which is something that made the original so attractive to kids. 

He does have an Oompa Loompa friend but I am undecided if I want to seek him out. The new Alice in Wonderland Chesire Cat however....

Random Collection Piece: Vinyl Idolz Ghostbusters


First off, I am really sad that there is no Winston here. He needs to be doing the "I love this Town" pose. Make it happen.

I am a big Pop Funko guy and while this is a different style, I dig these guys because they AREN'T Pop Funko.

Pops are hollow and cute. Vinyl Idolz are solid and awkward. Oooh, scratch that Winston pose from earlier and let him be in his trademark plaid with hand out so Ray can hand him a trap for that scene. That'd be AWESOME!
