Most Funko's seem rather undetailed to me. Like you are getting a taste of a figure instead of a developed character. I think that is what makes them cute.Muffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06121187068323359131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-2268982739940557572015-11-11T06:09:23.296-08:002015-11-11T06:09:23.296-08:00I totally miss DC - I used to live just up the hil...I totally miss DC - I used to live just up the hill from Arlington National Cemetery and walked my dog through there every day. Houston's Memorial Park is nice, but it really just can't compare.<br /><br />And that's not mentioning the free museums and being a less-than 10 hour drive from Toronto. But every relocation is an adjustment, so I may still warm to Houston yet - it's only been a few months, after all! :)jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-33809855334111241132015-11-10T02:37:12.443-08:002015-11-10T02:37:12.443-08:00I've seen this crew in our local stores and al...I've seen this crew in our local stores and also have no idea who they are, lol. I blame my lack of knowledge on current pop culture on having kids and no time to be aware of extra stuff, lol. I agree that he's a bit bland...not enough personality (which I know can be difficult for Funko Pop because of their minimal features.) Glad you could return him! How are you liking TX? Do you miss DC at all?

Fun fact: I didn't know anything about Fallout game until I watched a Cracked (youtube channel) video on it a few minutes ago. <br />Anyway, I'm glad you have been able to return this figure since you didn't like it. <br />Take care and keep having fun!<br />Petite Plangonophile au chocolathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08548251311004785318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-29619370434897211442015-11-07T10:41:52.269-08:002015-11-07T10:41:52.269-08:00It was unfortunate that the figure was damaged, a ...It was unfortunate that the figure was damaged, a good thing you could return it, especially if you didn't like it.

Don't you just hate it though when something you order arrives damaged? Although I appreciate it was fortunate in this case so that you could return him.....or you'd have wasted your money. But I do get fed up with receiving things that have to go back for one reason or another! <br />xxSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14816580427584989752noreply@blogger.com
