I can't believe Pokémon Masters EX added a Pokémon as a trainer.

Brycen-Man is a non-playable Pokémon you can battle in B2W2
Something that irks me is that Nate and Rosa had some cool costumes in the PokeStar Studios, yet Masters never bother to add those cool costumes there.
It would be great if they brought Ph.D. Pikachu with scientist Rosa or whatever.

I am starting to wonder if the recent release of Knuckles is getting in the way of getting a Sonic 3 trailer soon.
Why would it get in the way? They would’ve planned all this stuff a while ago, they can’t get in the way of themselves Any Sonic 3 news would come exactly when it’s supposed to.

Besides, I’ve been seeing mumblings from cinema insiders that we could be seeing a trailer soon. And if Mufasa, a movie coming out on the exact same day as Sonic, can get a trailer the other day I bet it won’t be long now.

I mean Paramount probably doesn't want Sonic 3 taking away attention from Knuckles views

Possibly as this is all universal properties.

Freddy Fazbear can team up with M3GAN so that’s pretty sick.
So that Funko video game really has me curious, who is the target audience for Funkos?
Adults who want to waste the little money they make for nostalgia lol.

But there are some non-Universal frachises like SkyBound, Umbrella Academy.
I would love to see some classic characters like Casper, Felix the Cat, Underdog, Larry the Cucumber, Fievel, Littlefoot and King Kong.

Edit: I forgot that Umbrella academy series was co-produced by Universal

Congrats, you're about to learn why it's called Crybaby.

(it's named after me when I watched the final episode)
ok yeah I understand why people said to not watch this show…but at the same time it was good and only nearly teared up when Miki died

It's probably not to over saturate as that's about 12 extra alts between the two of them. I could certainly see Rosa selling, Masters I think elevated her character to new highs within the fandom at large. Nate, on the other hand... has kind of become seen as the Yamcha of the fandom.

I am surprised Pikachu Libre hasn't been added yet though. They haven't done anything with Pokemon Contest characters yet, so I could easily see an event with ORAS/BDSP contest outfits.

So that Funko video game really has me curious, who is the target audience for Funkos?
I've always kind of wondered that myself. At the office I've been working for the past 5 years, I've only ever seen Funkos on about two or three desks and they're only for characters like Spider-Man or Dwight from The Office.

I've honestly seen more plushes and Fast Food toys on desks than Funko. Heck, one of my supervisors has a Sailor Moon statue ($$$) on his desk.

At this point, I'm mostly convinced that Funkos as a product are sustanstained by pop culture speculative investors rather than as an organic collectible product. I'm probably wrong though, as why else would Gamestop dedicate half of their shelf space to them. "shrugs"

I've been left pretty confused too, like the game looked like your standard family fare at first but then the violence started...

I be like "can't stand funko pop"

But if they ever make funkos of Caitlin or Gabby I be like "me and the bestie"
