    What are people using for shelves to display these guys? I tried searching this thread, but wasn't getting much.

    Nail polish racks are good for displaying ittle figures. There is a Shopkinz vending machine that would work wonderfully, as they are the same size.

    My daughter is currently the perfect age for potty humor. It is absolutely criminal that we don’t have that last wave available.

    I suggest we round up a posse to go to whatever warehouse that display sample wound up at. It can be ours!

    Eighteen months of uncertainty, that’s all the motivation I need. Dibs on Mr. Moneybanks!

    Whatchu talkin' 'bout, Willis? There IS no bad age for potty humor... just ask my 65yo mother. (If it weren't for Bathroom Humor she'd have no humor... probably explains whatever gene led me to weaponize jars of farts against stinker profs in college.)

    *crickets chirping*

    I suspect the Mad Libs is a delayed item finally coming out after much pushing outward.

    Only thing that happened on this since it was originally announced was the landing page for it on the Nexflix site was found. https://www.netflix.com/title/81112503 It's all blank, no art yet. Still waiting for any updates at all.
