Picture Balls

 Welcome back! Enjoy some more pictures with fun comments.

Way to take advantage of the new game before they get those trademarks. Pickle Ballsssss plural with an "s" is different than the new-ish sport Pickle Ball. Unlike the sport, these probably DO taste like pickles.

Is this a prank? Where's the hidden camera? Shouldn't this always ring up at $1? Why would they waste money on this? Did this scanner cost $1? I know, I'm kidding. But it's just sad that the Dollar Tree now has things that cost more than $1.

HOW? I mean, good for them. It's amazing how the Pokemon cards are always all sold out. You think it would be easy to print more, right? It's almost literally like printing money for them at this point.

Yikes that poor chocolate bunny in eternal munching position. I know it's only a chocolate bunny, but it's still harsh, kinda.

Isn't Elphaba supposed to be green? I haven't seen Wicked yet, should we be worried that she's pink now? And can't you just "hear" that Carlos Santana POP! Figure? You know the guitar melody, don't you?

Ooof, this is an old picture. Hope y'all got a Shamrock Shake when you could have back in March.

Ouch. If you need to drink your beer in the shower, you probably have bigger problems than trying to comfortably hold your beer can on the wall. Who is so thirsty they can't wait a minute?

Teach your toddler all about camping! Oh, and make sure they know to look out for Big Foot. We can't afford to put a zillion cameras in the woods, so we need as many people looking with their eyes as we can.

I can't figure out a good duck pun that matches Elsa or Frozen. Eh, I'll still post the picture. It's cute and maybe you can think of a funny pun yourself.

I had a ton of the old Neopets card game cards! Looks like they came out with a new game. I never played the old game, just collected the cool cards. Now I can collect new ones?

Always fun to see a retail store with "exclusive" figures from different stores. What does "exclusive" mean exactly?

At the flea market, and had a funny thought to just buy a flashy sombrero and wear it all over the place. People would think I'm crazy?

Gangrel was a WWF (now WWE) wrestler who was sort of a vampire. At some point during the match the lights would go out in the arena, and when they came back on, Gangrel would be gone, and his opponent would be drenched in red blood. It was cool. Also his entrance involved him rising up from below the stage in a ring of fire.

Neat alien species design from Babylon 5. The Vorlons were mysteriously armored and cloaked so you didn't really know what they looked like. I don't remember if they ever showed one outside the armor. It's been a long time since I've watched that show.

I know this picture is focused on Freddy, but I was looking at the Game Genie next to him. That was a crazy device you plugged your cartridge into that let you type in cheat codes. Pretty cool tech for its time.

The cute little Robo Force robots translate well into POP! Figure form. I wonder if they have the suction cup bottoms? Probably not.

Why would you sell your epic convention experience of meeting both Billy West and Katey Sagal? Fry's quote is convention-relevant "Shut up and take my money!" while Leela's quote is from this episode "Fine, you be crummy Universe A!"

It's a dishes-in-the-sink problem. They make a few POP! Figures at a time, and eventually the dishes are piled so high it seems impossible to clean them all.

The best part about POP! Figures is that they cover anything. Movies, shows, sports, plain old regular people, anime, cartoons. If you can think of something, there just might be a POP! Figure for it.

The shop in the flea market was so vast, it was not really easy to walk these figures next to each other, even though they were both there. I just wanted to do a lame congratulations to Bill's Quarterback Josh Allen who just got married.

Josh Allen married actress Hailee Steinfeld who plays new Hawkeye Kate Bishop in the Marvel um... Universe. See? If you can think of a person, they probably got a POP! Figure.

I still haven't seen the Twilight movies. Now they got a Lego set for it. It's a movie I kind of want to see, only because... it's popular? I mean, since it's popular, it's gotta be a decent movie, right? Otherwise it wouldn't be so popular. Does that make sense?

I have a friend who is a huge fan of this Terrifier series. Looks like "too much" for me, but I might eventually try to watch it through tight fingers in front of my face.

Japanese-style store Miniso in the mall near us had a promotion going, it's like getting a wrapped present! My friend knew about this but simply forgot to sign up before his birthday. Oh well, maybe next year.

The blind boxes are like art displays and can be quite expensive. Here's some Powerpuff Girls ones.

A huge box set for the new Neopets card game! 25th Anniversary? Don't know why, but it feels like it's older than that.

I had to get a picture of the back of course, so you could see what was inside. I don't remember how much, but it was too expensive to consider getting one. Or... should I have? Is this rare enough to justify that?
