Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Vinyl dolls with big, boxy heads and small bodies. Kinda cute, but mostly they end up barely looking like what they're supposed to be. There's exceptions though, and they're very good about releasing obscure characters eventually.
Because I'm into comics and similar "geeky" things, I used to get them as gifts fairly often. Had to put a stop to it because they take up room fast, and there's stuff I'd much rather display than hyper-cartoonish dolls. That being said, I very much enjoy my Godzilla, Cthulhu, and Squirrel Girl "pops"
Ahhh, I've seen them when browsing games at my local bricks and mortar. Indeed, they are incredibly generic. Not a lot of effort goes into them. Thanks for the information.
