Funko (Or Is It Fünke-o?) Brings Sharks and Bluths To Fans In June…

Sharknado PopI’d almost forgotten about the hot mess that was Sharknado and its upcoming (and guaranteed campier) sequel, Sharknado 2: The Second One, but Funko sure hasn’t, as it’s going to be releasing a Pop! vinyl figure in June for those of you who want a little reminder that SyFy is going to invade your television space on July 30, 2014 with that sequel.

Funko is also dropping eight (no, nine!) Pop! vinyls for Arrested Development, which is cool and all… but where the heck are the Bluth babes? That not hit but cult show wasn’t a total sausage-fest, you know, so I’m a tad ticked that the ladies aren’t getting Pop!-ed (yet). Or perhaps I’m missing something because I’m too busy (lazy!) to check the Funko site. Ah well, all is right in the world otherwise… Maeby!

Hmmm… perhaps this is one of Tobias Fünke’s ideas, as he’s the only one getting a rare “chase” figure? Aha. I see what’s going on here. Well, hopefully, this nefarious plan pans out better than anything Tobias ever did. That and if this DOES all work out, he’ll want to change the company name to Fünke-o… Hmmm… I dunno about that plan, mister man…

Tobias Fünke vs Capcom Makes My Head Spin (And Yours, Too!)…

OK, this made me laugh out loud because it’s too cheesy and I can see those who don’t know about the show at all wondering who the hell Dr. Tobias Fünke is while thinking Capcom is going nuts. THAT said…  I’m one of those poor Arrested Development fans the folks making these new episodes didn’t even think about who doesn’t have a Netflix account or the ability to stream anything unless I’m standing up in the bathroom (TMI alert! Oops, too late). So I’m hoping to hell that upcoming new “season” of shows gets a physical media release at some point down the road so I can laugh at more than my misfortune in this stupid all-digital era where you only “borrow” a license to watch something and there’s the chance it’s gone for good if there’s a big hack or server malfunction that wipes out your account info.

Well, that’s what would happen in that upcoming episode of the show where Michael puts the remaining Bluth family fortune into an online version of that famous frozen banana stand…
