Most of the critics are comparing seasons 1 and 2 and you just cannot do that with an anthology series such as this one. Season 2 is doing its own thing right now and I'm loving it.

I got the Breakfast Club set (6), and the Back to the Future set (2). Going with the 80s movie theme. The Derrick Rose one is "retired" and going for $25+. I Think they originally sell for $9.

you might be able to steal these for cheap.. nobody watching. one bid. ends tomorrow. .. $30 (45ish shipped) for all of them and Derrick Rose in there.. I was going to bid on them and put them in my store if I got them for less than $60, but if you are collecting.. have at them. Broken up the set is worth at least $120.00

Oh nice find! That would be a great deal for $45-50 ...but the thing i hate about collecting NBA (sport) figures is that the players end up with different teams....half those figures already play for a different team lol. Rose might not be a Bull one day but i would take a risk especially when it's the only Bulls Funko Pop. I just want to walk in a store and buy it for $10 and walk out. 8-)

I'd love if they came out with retro NBA Funko Pops.....now those would be 100% worth collecting.

The Gus Fring Pop is pretty awesome. I love that scene.

It came apart at supersonic speed. Lots of space station cargo wasted. Maybe the Russians will be successful in a week or so.

It's been a really really bad year for space station resupply lauches but Spacex has been a bright spot.

Until today. :(

Looks like Robin Thicke trying to come out of hiding out of the woods from the whole Marvin Gaye controversy. Got to say, this new track real smooth though.

Let's not forget that last track advocated rape.
