When Kidrobot dropped the Adult Swim mini figures, they tried to create exact copies of adult swim characters. Coupled with a so so production quality they looked more like gumball machine toys. When Kidrobot made the Simpsons Mini Figures, they were caricatured to 3.” I remember Hero Design ran out of them quick, as opposed to several of the Adult Swim toys floating in the “Land of Forgotten Toys.”

Thankfully when Kidrobot produced the Futurama toys, they went with a winning strategy.

Created by Matt Groening with David X Cohen and Kidrobot, the series has 12 3″ characters, blind boxed, plus two chases, and sell for 8.95 each. Goes on sale at Kidrobot and official places like Hero Design on August 13th. I’m so excited I could spit.
