My opinion:
They're relatively large, so unless you've got a lot of space trying to get them all can become a problem.
Buying them to leave them in their boxes or otherwise undisplayed is treating them as an investment.
So perhaps the best thing to do with the large Funko figures is to buy just those ponies you want as companions / guardians / icons / references / etc. There's nothing wrong with only getting one or a few.

You realize new york wasnt built overnight, right? Thats how it looked in the 1800s. Just because a city has skyscrapers doesnt mean its super modern.
Furthermore, if anything ponyville is even more modern than manehatten. Just because they have more traditional architecture doesnt mean anything, havent you noticed how usonian the interiors of their houses look? Modern furniture? Ceiling fans? Electric lighting?
Come on, man. Even since season one weve been seeing factories with assembly lines and robotics, hospitals with telemetry and x ray, theatres with modern sound equipment and stage lighting, modern coffee shops, bakeries, and restaurants....
If youve been thinking this show was set in the rennassance era all this time then you havent been paying much atrention, im just saying...
Quote from: McClaw on 2016 Apr 11, 08:45:04Spoiler: showManehatten may not have the same fantasy elements as the other prominent locations, but it does tend to reflect how major urban areas such as London and New York City looked in the 19th century -- which is the period Lauren was going for when designing Ponyville.

Manehatten is a metropolis, what are the odds that there's only one shop in the entire city that sells that particular product? Pretty close to zero. Could have just taken a taxi 4 blocks down the road to the next closest bag shop.
Ehh...disregard me. My INTP is showing again.

The Crystal Heart was not damaged or destroyed when the Crystal Empire returned. It was just hidden at the top of the palace spire, but was otherwise in perfect working condition which meant that it was still holding back the weather of the Frozen North as well.
When Sombra finally made it inside the city the blizzard didn't follow him.

You and I should be friends. Seriously. I can't seem to find anyone who has a similar opinion to mine when it comes to NOT REDEEMED character.
Quote from: Dawnstar on 2016 Apr 02, 00:11:47Spoiler: showI don't consider her to be the 7th main character at all.
A character who was only recently introduced, as a villain no less, and is rather suddenly redeemed can not be considered on the same character level as a primary cast that has 5 seasons of development behind them.
Yeah she's Twilight's pupil now, but at best she'll get put in a "major supporting character" role like Discord and Spike, but with more screen time than the former and likely less than the latter.
As for the blizzard. It required a powerful magic artifact to hold back the weather of the Frozen North. This means the weather that far north is a lot like the weather of the Everfree Forest in that the ponies are unable to control it. Except the northern weather is like Everfree's on steroids.
Granted, with how many times Celestia and Luna have been missing or incapacitated it does cheapen their roles as "guardians of Equestria" even if it was the first time they actually did something useful against the "threat" this time.

I'm going back to working weekends and I'm going to have too many DVR recordings to watch on Sundays. So I decided to get myself to get used to doing it on Saturdays instead.
What am I talking about? I watched the premier today of course. Instead of on Sundays like I normally do. This is for the best since I'll be working weekends again after this weekend and I'd might as well get used to it.
How I feel about this should be quite obvious. However, either way, for obvious reasons I will put in spoilers. With a simple warning:
Read at your own risk. Because this shouldn't surprise anyone. In fact, most probably won't like this. So either read it and then ignore it and don't respond to it, or don't read it at all.Spoiler: showOh look. It's NOT REEDEMED character. NOPE. GO AWAY NOW.
She's not going away... this is going to be a LONG episode...
I'm waiting for content I don't have to ignore...
NOPE. STILL NOT FORGIVEN. GO BACK TO YOUR HOLE AND ROT IN IT.
Don't teach her anything. She doesn't deserve it.
Still waiting for content... Part of me begins to hope she FAILS.
Crystal Empire. The baby alicorn that I decided to overlook because it was took cute to hate. Yep. Still feel that way. Her magic is... scary...
Plus she can fly. As a baby. I now feel sorry for Scootaloo. :')
STOP SHOWING NOT REDEEMED CHARACTER. STOP EXPECTING PEOPLE TO FORGIVE HER.
God... I was FORCING myself through this. I'm not even kidding here. I hate FORCING myself to do ANYTHING.
Sunburst is an interesting character. However her excuse for everything she did is still ridiculous. I don't care if she regrets what she did. Go die in a hole as punishment. No I'm not joking. She needs to go in a hole and die in it.
The baby causes the problem. Awkward but somehow not surprising.
So... am I supposed to forgive NOT REDEEMED character just because she helped to restore the Crystal Heart? lolnope. Not even close.
Not surprisingly NOT REDEEMED character and her friend are the key to resolving the issue. Which... I suppose isn't surprising.
*sighs*
Sorry. I really am. But...
WORST SEASON PREMIER EVER.
Too much emphasis on trying to get people to forgive NOT REDEEMED character, which for me, will NEVER happen.
This... isn't the start I wanted. It's not looking good for my future in the fandom.
There were a couple of funny moments and I liked the Flurry Heart antics. That's about all I can say about it.
With that... I wait for episode 3 and hope it's MUCH better.

Not the right dimensions, but when a picture is this good, I can't help myself.

I am very excited for this movie! I hope we get something interesting and not as disappointing as say... the Star Wars prequels. PS: am I the only person who likes Equestria Girls?
