>it’s upsetting for obvious reasons
There's no obvious reason for it to upset anyone - regardless of who buys them, figures are useless, overpriced, cynically-produced merchandise that does nothing except sit there... which is exactly what you or any "true fan" was going to do with it (unless you're into hotgluing of course)

Now if you're a collector and those people were destroying figures by sticking them in cum jars, vomit cups, etc., I could see why that might upset you... but it's Heyurians who are doing that
