Listen to My Story...

The moment I saw this, I knew I had to get him. Not only is it from Iron Man 2, but it's also a moment that I remember quite fondly. Ah... those good ole days of the MCU. At any rate, let's get into the POP, shall we? As one of the minorities for loving Iron Man 2, every time a POP is announced based on that movie, I tend to give it some attention. Still waiting on a 'classic' MCU War Machine, mind you! A bobblehead The Mark VI makes its presence known in Iron Man 2. While it

Yes, a POP Rides. It's been a bit since I got one of these, and truth be told, this isn't mine. This was gifted to me to give, so I decided to review him real quick. So let's get right into the review, shall we? I really don’t know anything about this character. I know the legend of Moby Dick, so I can kind of piece together what this is about. So… question though: Is Moby Dick in this anime just a skull and bones used as a ship? Interesting. Not a bobblehead Whitebeard’s des

Time for another addition to my Spiderverse POP! This Spidey 2099 is the variant from the Spiderverse movie. Let's not delay and check out this POP, shall we? I have the Spider-Gwen (or Ghost-Spider) from this wave. Probably the only other one I'm going to be getting from here. This Spidey was, after all, gifted to me by my Special Friend. A bobblehead I like the liberties Across the Spiderverse took with Miguel's design. It doesn't deviate too far from the familiar OG look,

Another POP Elements in my collection! This time around, it's the 'power-up' version, and this works with a handful of my POPs. So without further ado, let's go ahead and jump into the review, shall we? As I mentioned in my Elements/Lightning review, these POP accessories are an awesome idea. They can take regular commons and elevate them to the next level, or perfectly complement a POP that already has a lot of built-in special effects. The Power-Up element is very synonymou

Another Pokémon! Another Pikachu POP! Surprisingly, my special friend doesn't own a lot of Pikachus, but as they come out with more special edition that tickles her fancy, I will get them for her. For now, let's take a look at this, shall we? Add some elemental attacks and a little bit of designed stand, and we've got ourselves a premium POP! A bit more on the pricier side, but it does come with a bit more than a common one, I suppose. Not a bobblehead Pikachu is practically

The leading lady of DanDaDan, Momo Ayase, herself in POP form! If it wasn't obvious, I love this anime! And Momo is definitely a highlight whenever she appears on screen! Opening 2 isn't as good as the first, but I still love it! It's a pretty simple set but straight to the point with some key characters! Obviously, others are missing here, but at the moment, this is good enough. Not a bobblehead Momo, at first glance, is your typical eye candy tsundere anime girl. Yes, she h

Time to add another Pokémon POP into my Special Friend's collection! This time around, we have Ivysaur, the second form of Bulbasaur! I told my friend we are going to complete her basic G1 Pokémon POPs, and I meant it! So here's Ivysaur! Let's review this one, shall we? The first mid-form I am reviewing (if memory serves). Raichu has been in my household, but isn't mine. Not a bobblehead Truth be told, Ivysaur’s shape, proportions, and most of its details aren’t too different

Been waiting to review this POP for some time now! I love the anime, and the characters really grew on me. So without further ado, here's Okarun in his transformed state in POP form! Let's go! One of the best anime openings to date! I'm guessing that, other than the exclusives already out, this won’t be the final Dandadan POPs we’re going to get. This wave is actually pretty solid and basic in a good way, but we’re definitely gonna need more. Not a bobblehead Okarun’s design

Ah! POP elements coming into my collection! Yes, my special friend bought me this, and I was very shocked (no pun intended). How will this enhance my POP photoshoots? Let's find out, shall we? POP accessories are a nice gimmick that I'm glad Funko caught up on. They can really enhance POP display options with complementary special effects like this. As you'll see, there are plenty of characters and situations that can really benefit from POP elements. And, yes, there are more

It's Clobberin' Time! Yes, it's the Thing! Another POP from the First Steps MCU movie about Marvel's first family. This is my first Thing merch in a LONG time, so I'm genuinely excited to review this guy. With noTHING else to say, let's get to the review, shall we? Again, loving the design of the box. Fits the vibe of the movie. A bobblehead Ben Grimm has a really cool design, and he’s worn a wide variety of uniforms and costumes over the years. For the MCU version, he’s in a

A POP that I gifted my special friend! Yes, she's still collecting side characters, and this time around, it's Figaro (with Cleo) from Pinocchio! It's an adorable piece that I'm pretty excited to review! Let's go there, then, shall we? I highly doubt I'm ever going to add any more of these POPs to the collection unless, of course, my special friend wants a specific one. Not a bobblehead These POPs are pretty simple, but they have their own charm and complexity. For Figaro and

I know it's strange to have anything Star Wars in my collection. But samurai and red katanas? That's not far from my nerdiness. Helps that this was another 2025 Christmas present from my special friend. So without further ado, let's take a look at this Darth Maul "Impressions". This line is called "Impressions". While I could take a lot of guesses as to why they're called that, I'm going to leave that be and just say, the Stormtrooper looks awesome. Then again, so does Boba F

This POP I've had for a long time. I wasn't planning on reviewing this guy until I completed the four, but I decided to just go for it. So with that said, let's take a look at the POP of Reed Richards from the MCU, shall we? I like the box art. It is an homage to the movie's visual design. Of course, there are no graphics for other POPs in this wave, but it's pretty simple: we get the main four at the very least, plus Galactus and Surfer. A Bobblehead Like most MCU costumes,

Alright! Been looking forward to this one ever since I saw that Square Enix was licensing some characters to be done by another company through statues! I'm pretty excited for this piece! So without further ado, let's check out the Prince of Lucis in his brand new statue! A gigantic, high-quality box, let me tell you! The box is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it also does a great job protecting the figure inside. I especially love how it opens like a book, revealing the

It's crazy how this POP is twelve years old, and I only got him early this year. Then again, it was only 2025 when I started my Dragon Ball POP collection hardcore. With that said, let's review this older POP, shall we? One can just look at the characters and their posture, and one can immediately tell that this is an older wave. Definitely something in the history books. Not a bobblehead Not sure if any other characters on the Dragon Ball line have a scouter, but I will say

Oh boy! Are we really getting Chrono Trigger merchandise in 2026? Yes! Yes, we are! Square Enix decided to get a little smarter with their action figures/statue department and release some much-wanted Chrono Trigger figurines. And look, it's Crono and Marle! I'm super excited for this! I love this game. It was a bit part of my gaming childhood and to this day, it's one of the best JRPGs... best game I've ever played. Just the music alone! How I've longed for some rerelease, r

Another gift from a friend! This Nezuko is from a special scene, and truth be told, I wasn’t initially tempted to get this one at all. But since it was a gift, here we are — time to review this Nezuko POP. Let’s begin! Yes, except Doma, I have every single one of these! Or at least have owned them at one point. Doubt I'm going to finish this wave. Not a bobblehead This POP doesn’t have Nezuko’s classic bamboo muzzle. It’s from a specific moment in the anime, and honestly, it’

This is an oldie that I never snagged from way back when! My Special Friend gifted me this, so she's also pretty adamant about completing my Elsa POP collection. With that said, let's get into reviewing this, shall we? Classic line-up! I have all the Elsas, obviously. But funny enough, there is a special edition of Elsa I have yet to nab. Not a bobblehead It’s funny how this is from Frozen, but we never actually saw Elsa wearing this outfit while holding a snowball — except i

A cat POP?! Well, Chachamaru is from Demon Slayer, so there's that. I don't 100% remember this character, but this POP was gifted to me. So without further ado, let's review this thing! Yeah, this wave is so random, but it makes sense in some ways. Not a bobblehead It's a cat with a charm of some sort. I vaguely remember this cat from the anime, but even just in POP form, it looks pretty cool. I believe there’s a line of POP Pets coming out (or already came out), and if you t

Okay! We have a blast from the past! This is a POP I gave my Special Friend as a gift some time back, and we are just now getting into reviewing it! Man, I can't wait until she and I can display our collection together! She has so many cool things, and honestly, this is probably one of them! So let's check it out! Not a bobblehead Experiment 625 is a strange one but adorable like the rest of them. Named Rueben, this guy's main gimmick is making sandwiches while possessing all
