I remember hearing about the new line of Kidrobot Futurama toys at some point earlier this summer and naturally freaking out about it. They went on sale on the 13th at 10am and I was All Over It. So All Over It that I ordered them while in a meeting with my research assistantship supervisor. I mean, like, we were chatting about whatever I was giving him and at the same time I was discreetly typing in my credit card number and my shipping info. I am a terrible person.
Anyway, they came in the mail today! Time for a picture parade™!

Sorry you didn’t get a Dr. Zoidberg. Bender’s pretty awesome, though. Does the door on his chest open up? It looks like it might.
One last thing on these guys…aren’t the boxes fantastic? I love that design. I almost felt bad opening them.

It does open! I hide his cigar in there while he’s Pharaoh Bender.
