Funko Fusion: RETURN of the LISCENSED SHOVELWARE

The game is rated T for Teen?? I don't think a modern Teen would know who any of these characters are?

I just wish the worlds had more going on for replay value, performance was a bit more stable on some worlds rn like Jurassic World, projectiles weren't reticle based bc if enemies get close and I know the shot should hit them it will go through them bc the reticle is aimed on a wall 5 ft behind them most of the time, and that maybe the funko boxes for the levels were animated. Maybe I forgot some but the last one i jusy did was Husky Hustle for The Thing and I kinda wish they had the helicopter blades spinning. Ooo and vehicles. A vehicle dlc would be awesome. I'd love to be driving a snowmobile around The Thing, a Tricycle for chucky, motorcycles/jeeps for Jurassic, etc. One of the few things I prefer lego for kinda. Plus we see SO many vehicles just sitting around this game, it's crazy.
