Man, nendoroids are cheap. Funk Pops are low-tier knockoff nendoroids. I've been buying figures almost as long as swords, and most of my "hobby" budget goes that way. What little I have left after bills etc feeds the woman. Since I can't be bothered to resize everything on my phone, or take new pictures, here's a link to my Photobucket album, which hasn't been updated in 4-5 years: s190.photobucket.com/user/randomnobody/library/Room%20Pics?sort=3&page=1

Nendoroids are like $20 a pop from what I’ve seen

Some run closer to $30, but depending on the series and accessories, $15+ is about right for a nendo.
Only one we have is a Tracer, from Overwatch, that she bought on clearance for something like $5. She was gifted two Funko POPs, as well, otherwise I wouldn't have any.
Updated my album with 14 "new" pictures from March of last year. Didn't realize my most recent photos were that old...

That whole show lowered the bar for "mediocre" and the uproar over the worst ditz-and-tits character in the last decade was so far overblown. But like what you like, that's the point. As for Musha vs figures, a few katana I'm the rack mostly look the same. I have several figures with recolor versions, too. I don't go swinging then around, though...

You really don’t like DanMachi?!?! XD she is a big focus of fan service but I just like her character type, I don’t rly like characters like erza scarlet or other super intense girls. What about Millihoire or Saori or Hange

Nope. DanMachi was just kinda meh as self-insert, power fantasy, harems go. Managed to watch the whole first season, but never really felt satisfied for it. At least it wasn't as bad as Arifure...
Not familiar with the others, though I recognize the AoT/SnK getup. Won't comment on that one, or its fan base, either...
There used to be an anime thread, somewhere in the Cafe. Should probably take this there so we can get back to laughing at our silly wallhangers.

Only one we have left: Museum Collection Sting! Dandelion a Museum Collection Sting is no wall hanger, it's a fully functional sword. That would be like calling a Albion Conan sword a wall hanger. Okay not in the league as an Albion but still not a wall hanger. I looked all around for one of those but had to settle for a standard sting.

Hmm... functional? Hardened and tempered carbon steel blade yes, but do you have info on the grip construction?

I heard that some near the end of the run got sold without them. They were made in Spain not Taiwan like the standard model. Here's a description from a seller but of course it's SOLD OUT. www.bladecenter.com/UC1424-sting-sword-museum-collection.aspx
