Funko read his comment somewhere and said - hold my beer...

[Spooked]

Huh. They both finally got on my nerves enough that I stopped buying their products all together. This somehow seems kind of fitting...

Mondo: overpriced and overrated

[OriginalFire]

The only few Mondo things I wanted to buy was their Masters of the Universe 1:6 stuff but after the Scareglow debacle I decided to jump ship and the Rick and Morty stuff and Funko apparently has the master lisence for Rick and Morty and they have done nothing with it at all. It would be nice to get some Rick and Morty action figures that are actually good. Perhaps, we can get Scareglow released again, in like 20 million different colors now lol.

Funko dipped their toes into traditional action figures though. I have their Savage World horror line and Thundercats. They also did a few waves of Rick and Morty action figures. Granted, with mixed results.

If they could help source materials and bring down the cost of the Mondo 1/6 scale stuff. That'd be great.

What happened with Scareglow?

I actually like the (non reaction) 3 3/4 stuff funko has made quite a bit. But it seems like it's been years since they put out anything in that scale.

[TimespliTT]

will they still make 1/6 cartoon/video game characters?

LOL never cared or was interested in either company's products, so this literally gives me zero emotions/feels.

But strangely enough to make you comment though. lol.

God I hate funko. I rarely buy anything mondo has to offer, so they can stay on their side of the street, and I'll stay on mine.

No Go...No Go :^)

Even though I can rarely ever afford Mondo’s products, I do love the skill in their design and sculpts. I’d love to think that Funko will give them a wider reach and audience, but I think it’s more likely that the quality will suffer and then eventually Funko will just scrap the brand.

If Funko can help Mondo get distribution for stuff in Walmart/Target that should help them.
