New Kidrobot Toys

[Reply #320 on:]

My KR Leela has a more blue-violet shade to it... Only Toynami has red-violet verging on pink so far as I know.

Edit: ToTPD

[Reply #321 on:]

On the page one photo, page 2 figures displayed photo and other pics online it appeared more dark pink. Purple would be perfect. But that's good to know it is more violet for some figures.

[Reply #322 on:]

I got mine maybe a year or so ago, so it's entirely possible that they altered the color of her hair. But seeing it in real life next to Toynami's Leela I can certainly testify it's not that same, off-colored shade. Of course, every alternative Leela I've seen/own has hair more purple than the original Toynami Leela so... it kinda means little. Ehh but, here's a comparison. Granted, a  LOT of the problem is lighting. Lighting is a tricky dick and loves to make things appear one shade when it's really another.

[Reply #323 on:]

Thanks Professor Zoidy, that Kidrobot Leela's hair color looks good and indeed appears to have the better color shade when compared to other pics. Yeah the lightning definitely keeps playing tricks on the eyes until we actually have the item in hand.

[Reply #324 on:]

Quite welcome! KR Leels is pretty easy to get blind, and super easy to find on eBay. I think you'll be pleased with her if you decide to get one. You can even decapitate her and switch her head with the other KR figures. I can testify she looks pretty lousy on Fry's body, and positively ridiculous on Lrr's.

[Reply #325 on:]

Ha..I am now imagining the show trying such switcheroo with character body parts in future episodes. *shudders*. Due to color confirmation, I can indeed take the plunge to buy these figures now.

[Reply #326 on:]

I just ordered Wooden Bender, to anyone who already got it - does his compartment door open? Just wondering, thanks!

Hypnotoad is still awesome. He's sitting next to my bed

[Reply #327 on:]

Oh, wow. Quite a bit of cash for that thing...

whoever won that is gonna feel REALLY stupid when they see the normal price for it......

[Reply #328 on:]

So I looked into it. The guy who won it did pay for it, but apparently the account was regged since 2002 and nothing was bought since 2011. This tells me it's not an actual collector but perhaps an e-bay account checking up on its sellers on the site. I've had that before. It's just ridiculous it got so high...like there was more than one person bidding that high on it, especially when it's on ThinkGeek right now for $39.99...

[Reply #329 on:]

Some folks have money to burn, and aren't intelligent enough or not willing enough to price check items... I can't say those folks don't deserve what they get for their laziness or ignorance.

[Reply #330 on:]

Yeah but, if you look at the history, there was a bidding war between 4 of them past the standard price it was online at the time. One even had 1908 feedback and bid up to 153.00. Am I missing something? It's not like it was signed or anything...

I had a buyer buy from me who hadn't bought anything since 2003. That...was quite scary - I didn't know what to expect

But anyways, yeah. Ridiculous. I could possibly see it getting that high if it were signed and the demand were there...

Also, I like Kidrobot Leela's hair. It's a very pleasing shade of purple hehe.

[Reply #331 on:]

Someone listed a complete set of the Kidrobot line and the starting price isn't that much more than the going rate for Robot Devil himself. With Slurms going for $50 and the other 10 for 10-30 even the BIN price isn't bad. But anyways thought I would link it for someone who never braved the blind box phenomenon.

[Reply #332 on:]

So Kidrobot came out with a Nibbler now? When did that happen?

[Reply #333 on:]

Actually this is the 2nd Nibbler toy by them, the first being 3 inches, this one being six inches:

[Reply #334 on:]

It comes out tomorrow for $50 from Kidrobot.com or tfaw.com for $40

[Reply #335 on:]

One listing was associating it with SDCC but that was probably to just make a sale...thanks guys!

[Reply #336 on:]

so, i ordered 2 blind boxed off ebay, got slurms and zoidberg. the second zoidberg i got.
WHHHHYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. then i went to kid robot london, bought 6 blind futurama 2 blind simpsons series 2.[all they had] ended up with fry, leela, sal, 2moms and zoidberg.
AGAIN.3rd time. also got willie and otto. meh. so now i have zapp zoidberg mom fry leela mom slurms and sal. also hypnotoad. and willie, otto mariachi maggie and london bot. i sold two zoidbergs and am selling a mom on ebay, bids starting 4.50 [£]. so can anyone tell me where i can buy a case of kid robot simpsons series 2, and 1. or any good deals on either. now i want all the 6 inch kid robots futuramas.....

[Reply #337 on:]

Zoidberg is actually worth a little more than the others. Slurms is the second most valuable figure after robot devil so all in all sounds like you got a good haul...

[Reply #338 on:]

I'm going to order the 6" Nibbler. I've got the Wooden Bender & Hypnotoad although I haven't opened them yet and probably never will.

[Reply #339 on:]

Here is what all the 6' Kidrobot figures look like next to one another. I put a blind-box Nibbler for size comparison

[Reply #340 on:]

I was wondering what that Nibbler would look like, I have the wooden bender and hypnotoad though so I pictured it from the smaller blind box guy. For what it's worth, I recently acquired a Moore Nibbler for $50 (same price right now for Kidrobot Nibbler) and I like him more (haha). He's slightly bigger and has more...personality.

Thanks for the pic, smalfri2!

[Reply #341 on:]

I want to get that too lol a little at a time. But I do really like the packaging Kidrobot has for all three figures.

[Reply #342 on:]

Yeah, the packaging is nice. I keep going back and forth on the Nibbler but l'm not sure even the packaging can justify me spending 55 dollars on him right now lol. I just already have so many Nibblies with the plushies and figures and what not...I'll think about it.

[Reply #343 on:]

EEEEK!  Looks like Kidrobot may have taken my advice on a Hedonism bot!!!!  http://popvinyls.com/?p=1541

Btw, want to believe this is true but I highly doubt they are re-releasing any past figures.  They would lose a ton of collectors on that move.

[Reply #344 on:]

I can't wait for the 2nd blind box series.

I'm hopeful of:-

Main crew missed out on first series.
Brain slug
Hypnotoad
Neptunians
Robot Mafia

[Reply #345 on:]

I have just ordered a case of 16 from the 1st series. Should be here in about 10 days.

[Reply #346 on:]

Tell us who you get!

[Reply #347 on:]

Just bought two boxes from eBay, hope I get Bender, as long as I dont get Mom (already got) I will be happy though!

[Reply #348 on:]

I can't wait for the 2nd blind box series.

New Blind Box series of Futurama figures? Fuck yes! ...

[Reply #349 on:]

Just opened my case of blind boxes.

1 X Morbo, Zoidberg, Lrr, Sal.
2 X Mom, Bender, Leela, Fry, Zapp, Nibbler

up for sale are :
1 X Mom, Fry, Zapp & both nibblers.

[Reply #350 on:]

You selling them on eBay?

[Reply #351 on:]

I'd prefer to sell them on here to avoid ebay fees and things.

I've decided I'm going to keep both fry's and make an alternative universe set. 

[Reply #352 on:]

Would be interested in Bender, Zapp and Nibbler. I got Fry and Leela in the 2 I bought lol

[Reply #353 on:]

I need both bender's as i'm going to make an alternative universe set.

You can have Zapp & Nibbler though.

I'd also be interested in a trade for a Zoidberg (so I can paint it blue), Robot Devil or a Slurms McKenzie going my way? 

[Reply #354 on:]

How much for Zapp and Nibbler, have PayPal and eBay to make things easy?

[Reply #355 on:]

I saw someone list a golden variant Bender on there once...it looked pretty good, I never bid on it tho as it got up to 30 bucks and I thought the guy would list another one...he didn't

[Reply #356 on:]

I'll do them both for £20 + P+P. Paypal will be fine, don't want to use ebay due to selling fees but I'll post up my profile so you can see.

Nibbler went for £15 this afternoon, not sure on the price off Zapp but £20 seems fair to me.

[Reply #357 on:]

Any news on a release date for the blind box series 2? Also the 8 inch figures.

[Reply #358 on:]

[Reply #359 on:]
