Those are cool. But I like the original ones way more. And maybe, partly because the other ones are designed with outfits similar to their look since 2004, so it feels more like the band. Or maybe it’s the lack of guitar and bass. I’m not totally sure. I think these are an easy pass. it could also partly be that I don’t have money to use on Funko at the moment and this is my way of convincing myself to not buy them.
Enjoyed this immensely. Truly a unique player at least in terms of his compositions if not style, certainly amongst pop punk, and still feels under appreciated to me. Even after nearly 30 years of fandom I'm still excited for the day I get to hear that Longview intro live again.

The Story Behind: Green Day - Dookie, Ep. 256 Dookie discussed on the latest version of this podcast 1001 Album Complaints which critiques classic albums with plenty of humour. First hour is primarily the history/career up to the release before the analysis starts. Enjoyed this one. Listening to the discussion of the albums success, I still find it incredible that Dookie is the joint 12th highest certified album in the US at 20 million. For reference, that's more than Born in the USA and Appetite for Destruction and equal to Metallica's Black album. All of which were released several years before it (a decade earlier in the case of BITUSA and 7 for Appetite). It's singular in its success within pop punk. Even Grunge which sort of has a similar limited peak-commercial era has Nevermind and Ten at 12m +.
PHGP showed up as immediately sold out for me at 10. I refreshed for 35 minutes and finally got one for face.
