People might be interested to know that they seem to be available from Pop in a box. Apart from the exclusives. I ordered my keyring from there months ago and hadn't even realised some of them were meant to be exclusives. :(
They seem to ship worldwide and have a couple of different regional websites.

She looks like something out of a 1920s cartoon.

Aww cute! I have a really hard time with Funkos, but these are kind of adorable :D I hope they make it to Sweden, I'd love to get my hands on a Minty ^^
Why is there no Blue Belle tho :(
i would keep looking around.  i wasn't expecting to see them here as we missed out on the 35th retros and this online/ pick up store had blue belle as well the scented cotton candy so had the both exclusives there, they just didn't have the keychains though.
the only thing blue belle wasn't on the back of the box which i thought was weird.

I don't think they put the exclusives on the back of regular-issue boxes, I think I remember noticing that with other POPs. I guess it'd be misleading maybe? Especially since the exclusives aren't available in every country.

Ugh, Funko's quality is SO horrible for their price point.  Compare their bad seam lines and paint jobs to something from, say, Tokidoki or Kidrobot and it's just appalling.  Their price point doesn't even have the decency to be lower than other vinyl/resin art toys.

Looking at my unicornos - they look precisely like their product photos, and all of them have no seam lines or they're just BARELY visible.  Their paint is all spot on, down to tiny details - nothing is smudged, blurry, or out of place.  They're about $12 USD and admittedly smaller than funkos, but it makes their attention to detail all the nicer.

I have other import vinyl which does run spendier but the quality is just astronomically better.  This looks like it's it's own dollar store knockoff.

(I'm super biased - I absolutely hate Funko's style, business model, and that they single-handedly destroyed the American vinyl artists market with their garbage 'collectables'.)

I agree with your last point especially, Featherwurm! Tokidoki has stellar QC and I wish Hasbro had gone that route instead, but last I looked they tried to sue them over one of the blue/rainbow unicornos so unfortunately that probably took it off the table.

I ordered the 6 collectors and 2 keychains from Hot Topic and they came today.  They're really cute in person and I think I need to get some extras to make a Peachy and maybe a Bowtie.

I never really considered Funko "vinyl art". To me they are affordable licensed collectibles. If you like a thing you can often at least find a Funko for it even if nobody else wants to bother making merch for it.

What in the world!? I had no idea these came out!

I'm not a big Pop person but I really love these for some reason. I might need Minty. >_>
