I Hope You Didn’t Pre-Order Those Watchmen Bearbricks

Because here are regular Kubricks, done in the guises of the Watchmen team. What? Oh, come on — you knew Medicom was going to make regular Watchmen Kubricks. Don’t tell me you really thought that they’d stop with only the silly bear versions. Anyways, here are two things of note: 1) I realized I much prefer Ozymandias with cartoonishly blond hair, as per the comic/toy, and 2) because of the sculpting of the basic Kubrick body, the Kubrick Dr. Manhattan is actually wearing more underpants than his comic/movie counterpart. See bigger pics over at ToyNewsI.
