Ah was wondering how long those Blobs would last before they went bad. So what was actually inside him - water or some gel? Was he salvageable after his leak? I'd be curious to see what he looks like now.

Hi,

I'm working on a list of my Futurama merchandise and I'm wondering if there was a "Heavyweight Bender" with normal coloring (not shiny version and not SUPER heavyweight) in an individual box (Bender only).

Does anybody know?

Additionally, is there a SDCC glow-in-the-dark Bender bobble head? (I have the Elmstreet exclusive version, but not SDCC)

I just photographed my whole collection (except for comics). Anybody interested in a collage?

[Reply #603 on:]

Yes we all our interested in a collage!

This one claims it's an SDCC exclusive but I can't see what the stickers say on this opera mini browser.

[Reply #604 on:]

It says Glow in the Dark and a Comic Con logo

Yeah, that's the coin bank. I'm looking for the smaller ones with shaking heads.
I'll deliver my pics soon. ;-)

Good news everyone!!

Finally I finished digging through my boxes with Futurama merchandise, photographing everything and making a list of it.

Here is the result of my collection so far:


Copyright 2012


Here the things of my collection I didn't photograph:
- Futurama video game for PS2
- all comic issues (German and US) including #1 variant, "Delivery Boy Man", small SDCC DVD promo comic, the collections (Futurama-o-rama,...)
- the regular DVD boxes (one for each season + movie box). The three boxes on the pictures are the seasons 1-3 in VHS!! (VHS died before the release of season 4)
- some autographs
- posters
- all 23 magnets (they are still in the mail package, I was too lazy to take a picture of all of them)

Yes, I know! I'm crazy!!!
All of my items are still in its original package and I tried to get all variants too. Additionally, I've got some promo items that I included in the picture like some TV station slides, the FOX Futurama base cap or my "holy grail", the FOX Futurama promotional Bender statue including Robot Oil and Bachelor Bar.
The Kidrobot case was opened and contains 16 opened boxes. All variants are included. I have all calendars in two languages where available (German and US), therefore you see two of each on the picture.

And I know, there are still some peaces missing. The following items are on my wish list:
- Destructor figure
- Robot Devil plush
- not yet released things 

Feel free to ask any questions.

Wow that is an amazing collection, I'll give you $10 for the lot LOL

[Reply #609 on:]

Holy fuck! I'm well jel. Is there anything you don't have? Very impressive collection!...

[Reply #610 on:]

Wow. Just... wow.

Nibbler_04 wins the internet!

[Reply #611 on:]

A modest collection... but I've got more figures on the way.. and quite a bit of stuff I haven't snapped a shot of... such as; many of the Futurama comics I have are not pictured.

Nibbler's collection is master grade... and epic, bravo dude.

[Reply #612 on:]

We're all insane But I think Nibbler_04 takes the cake! Great collections everyone!

[Reply #613 on:]

Wow.... thanks a lot to all of you. For your comments and the pics of your own collections. It's always fascinating to see other people which are also insane. 

Great that I can share my passion here. 

[Reply #614 on:]

Amen to that my friend

[Reply #615 on:]

We're like a self-help for merch addicts As in...we help each other buy more merch hahah.

I'm so jealous you have the lunchbox, I really want that. Last one I saw was way outta my price range (like $100 or best offer)

[Reply #616 on:]

Yeah it's not rare for the once $20.00 Futurama lunch box to go for upwards of $80.00.

Geeezzz; with that in mind I'll wait for.. and see.. if another tin tote ever gets made.

But if I ever see it for $50.00 dollars.... I'd buy it.


Anyway I have a brand new Toynami Hermes figure heading my way... as slowly my collection grows.  

[Reply #617 on:]

I never realized the lunch box became so expensive! I still remember the times when no one bid on it on eBay for $19.99. Glad I bought it a long time ago. Maybe I should bring my microwave to the sun and hope for a super nova to travel back in time and buy more of it.

[Reply #618 on:]

Pick me up one too if you do that!

Speaking of the bay, a Moore Bender in his Chef outfit is coming my way for $20.49 with FREE shipping! I lucked out with myself being the only sniper at the end and the auction ending late at night last weekend that no one upbid me. I am still shocked I got such an incredible deal. And there were two at bid at the same time, they just must not have noticed this one, because the same figure went for almost $40 a day later!

[Reply #619 on:]

That might have been the same one I saw it was £9.99 I nearly bid on it because someone had one bid but decided I already had one so I'd let someone else have that one so they can appreciate it

[Reply #620 on:]

Hahaha. Thank you, then! (I bid after the initial bid). My max was more than double what I paid! So I am glad you didn't upbid me heheh.

The only other figure I am really want is a metal Kif. I was fooling around a few months ago not paying attention and missed out on one and haven't seen it since. I think it was a metal Kif. Unless I am mistaken? Part of that Rocket line.

[Reply #621 on:]

Ive just found two series two benders from the same county as me going for £6 (roughly $10) each Im gonna snap up those bad boys tonight

[Reply #622 on:]

There is no metal Kif. The only Kif figures I know are the bendy ones (Rocket USA) in normal and Glow-in-the-Dark variant, but these are plastic figures. And then there is the Toynami figure. But that's is I think...

[Reply #623 on:]

Hmmm. Maybe I got confused with the Kif metal clicker then. I should have kept watching it so I would know for sure...my mind does occasionally like to make up stuff, though.

EvilPDA?

[Reply #625 on:]

Sorry dude I totally forgot to reply no unfortunately blob never made it through the procedure I had to cut him open to save bender and without the liquid inside him he jus looks like a rubbery mess, I suppose of u were clever enough u could make a small incision remove the bender then fill blob with something like stuffing or play Doh (kinda wish I'd thought of that before I binned him) I would have kept him whole but like I said he was randomly leaking and I could work out where from maybe the sun from my window had something to do with it, who knows

I think it was water inside personally if I was the manufacter I would have used something like silicone or something with more stability but can still be squished

[Reply #626 on:]

Thanks. Ya, I always worried that he'd have a limited shelf life. I don't dare to think of new figures anymore, but if Toynami's line gets back on track, I'd love a deluxe H. G. Blob. I'd probably just rather see him in some hardish plastic, rather than something soft and gooey, let alone water filled.

[Reply #627 on:]

Fantastic collection, Nibbler! Are you missing anything, or is that literally everything? Looks like you just need the Wooden Bender Kidrobot and Destructor. But like you said, pre-order:p

Nice to see someone else with the launch kit. Do you have the full box?

[Reply #628 on:]

I bought a figure of B.O.B from monsters vs aliens and he was made of a rubbery plastic which was fantastic, HG Blob should be made the same way

P.s I now have 13 benders if u include his head and the Nixon one

Thanks. The Wooden Bender ist already on its way. I'm still waiting for Desctructor but I doubt that the online shops will sell the SDCC version. I will see...
I tried to get all official merchandise except for some things like the Space Pilot 3000 giclee (officially the first merchandising item ever, but with $250 in the year 2000 too expensive for a better poster), clothes, posters, foreign comic books and DVDs and some other things.
I don't have the original launch kit box, only the figure. I think you are the only person on this planet who owns the complete box. And I don't have the small launch kit. But these things are almost impossible to get, even through ebay. I have seen the launch kit figure only three or four times on ebay during the last 12 years.
So for the rest, I think I'm on a good way.

[Reply #630 on:]

I think your collection has inspired me to finish mine off, haha.

I'm missing the Bender mask, sheet music, Nibbler/Zoidberg/Bender plushies, magnets, Brain Slug, H.G Blob Professor and Fry versions, tin signs and some calendars.

Off to eBay, unless you're having a yard sale

When did you begin collecting? I was 12 when Futurama aired, and I live in Australia, so pretty much everything I'm missing is from the 1999-2002 Darkhorse era. Too young and not enough eBay back then

I started collecting in 1999 or 2000, just when the series aired. But the first year or so there was no merchandise. Everyone waited for the first Bender wind-up toy that was announced. I'm now 36, so I was already old enough to start collecting with my own money.
But living outside the US makes collecting more difficult. The shipping costs are much higher and a lot of people don't want to sell internationally. Therefore I'm still waiting for an affordable Robot Devil plush toy.

[Reply #632 on:]

I only started collecting when I saw the Toynami Fry with Build a Bot part come out in a local Hot Topic a few years back (2008 perhaps? when was that?). Hard to believe I have amassed all this stuff since then...

[Reply #633 on:]

There is a futurama lunchbox on ebay right now the bid is at $20 

[Reply #634 on:]

Thanks dude! I actually just got one last week along with a pirate lunchbox for $26 including shipping I got lucky. The thing was on a 10 to bid and 20 to buy and had been online for like 5 minutes you better believe I hit the BIN on that asap hahaha.

[Reply #635 on:]

Not a problem I was just reading this thread and noticed so i thought i would share the info

[Reply #636 on:]

Had this been two weeks ago I would definitely be going for it right now haha.

[Reply #637 on:]

I have decided to resume my collection and i need to know how does someone upload pics on here. When i get my custom shelves built i will put up some pictures

[Reply #638 on:]

Just got my Destructor. It's amazing.

[Reply #639 on:]

 This is all i have so far.  I have the rest of the kid robot toys on the way, wooden bender, URL, Chef bender, Mom, MAC Chef Bender, Golden Bender also on the way.  I'm looking for the other zoidbergs
