Because I pay attention! Do you think they don't know other blogs exist, or are they just pretending they don't, so - in their own heads - they can convince themselves of the uniqueness of their 'little club', and justify the plagiarism?
Peter Evans found these up in London and they were part of the August pick-up, but as friend and fellow blogger Jan had already posted Brainrot on his Site of Curiosities, they weren't new to me! But these seem to be the next step in the franchise, borrowing from gaming.
In that they have an attached electrictrickery-box, as a plinth, and do light & sound stuff! These both seem to be new characters as their names aren't on the website yet, but a ninja-takeaway cup fighting a chimp-headed giant banana slice is something anyone should pay to see!
We saw the stand-alone figures on the Blog last December, courtesy of Brian B, mentioned several times in connection with the even weirder Skibidi stuff (also from Brian), and those odd unbranded figures we saw at the start of October (also from Peter), they tend to more animal forms, but the Robot 'family' group, are mostly inanimate objects.
I haven't tried them, but you have to pull out the white tab, to make the contact which will enable the battery to start operating. The removanle top-half can also be used as a key-ring. Thanks to Peter, two boxes ticked, but I'm not planning on seriously collecting this stuff!
Also two new posts on the But is it Giant Blog earlier the morning.
