Toys of the Week: The Big Lebowski Series 2
So you’re not going to SDCC and are unable to buy Vampire Toast, plus you, like the other 6 billion people on the planet, can’t have the KITT Transformer. What the hell are you going to do? You’re going to abide, that’s what you’re going to do, and pick up these two Big Lebowski figures from Bif Bang Pow. This Walter Sobchak, clothed in his stupendous “night mission” outfit, and the Dude in his hoodie and jams (you know, for formal occasions) make up the second series of Bif Bang Pow’s vinyl-style Lebowski “Urban Achievers,” stand (or slouch) 8-inches, come with their bowling balls and will tie your goddamn room together, you know? Buy ’em here for $40 for the pair?and maybe Big Bang Pow will make the Jesus next.
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
