One of the most bizarre gifts I've ever been given was a random Skyrim funko pop. I don't really do collectibles, and I hadn't played Skyrim in a couple years at that point.

Then I found out that the person who gave it to me has a massive collection of Funkos. They can't even display all of them because they're stacked several layers deep all the way to the ceiling

You know how gacha games exploit the same psychology as gambling addiction? I’m convinced Funko pops are like that, but for hoarding. I don’t know what it is about the brand, but you so rarely see people with just a small collection of them. It’s either none or 500.
