Comedy tat that isn't OFAH themed

Not sure if I am being a bit harsh here (perhaps you all have this on your shelves at home) but I think this Corporal Jones cuddly toy wearing leather trousers and boots is would count as tat.

You can also get a talking version that says don't panic and four other phrases.

I might be biased as I hate Funko Pops but this Funk Mini Moments of Jerry's apartment in Seinfeld looks a bit shite: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304806447063?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=hpjycq5tsmi&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Apparently you can buy various bits of his apartment each with various figures from Seinfeld: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/195141706238?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=kY-TNFTHRqO&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

You can also get Seinfeld Funko Pop figures, including one of Kramer in his underwear. I wonder how well that sells.

Not sure what to think of these Fawlty Towers trading cards: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/195141706238?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=kY-TNFTHRqO&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I wouldn't mind the Corporal Jones cuddly toy, it's cute. Yeah I absolutely despise Funko Pop anything, it's so ugly.

I remember someone on twitter saying that collecting funko pops is a serial killer trait

The Seinfeld apartment is very desolate. You can get the Lego Friends apartments for £160. A lot cheaper than their Titanic or Lord of the Rings stuff. But also much shitter. We've already discussed a lot of Friends merch, chocolate pizza irons, cushions, and all the coffee stuff.

Or incomprehensible 65p How I Met Your Mother keyring.

There's a Lego Seinfeld apartment too complete with TV cameras, which is very meta of them.


I would quite like the George minifigure though.

I was in a secondhand bookshop in Wolverhampton years ago and they had a basket of pinbadges, mostly of bands but inexplicably there was one of Wilfred*, and when I went to buy it they gave it to me for free, as if they were glad I was taking it away.







*2010s sitcom with Elijah Wood about a man who sees his neighbour's dog as a crude pot smoking Australian man wearing a dog costume.

Do we count Inside No 9 as comedy? My poshest comedy tat in that case is the Alert Hare sculpture. I move it around the flat from time to time. Apart from this I have chibi stickers of various comedy characters stuck on furniture like I'm still 9 years old or sth. Also have socks with Limmy's face on that I had made when I got some done of my dogs.

Oh, Nobody



Presumably Hicks comes with a swappable Dennis Leary head.

Those are great, although it looks more like Kevin McNally's Mainwaring than Arthur Lowe's.

Maybe it's cus I'm well sleep deprived but that corporal Jones thing really reminds me of this, somehow

Which episode was that in? And that pretzel would make them thirsty alright, to scale it'd be about 2ft wide.

George wishes aloud that he could buy a similar product to seperate him from his engagement from Susan.  Luckily she dies of envelopes shortly after.

I know everyone disses Funko Pops (and Big Bang Theory) but how can you not want a tiny plastic Mayim Bialik?



Unsurprisingly, Big Bang Theory is one of the most merchandised sitcoms.

Oh Funkos are the worst. Half the time you can't tell who they're supposed to be.

Utter Shit

The Lego versions of the Friends apartments and the coffee shop are great, with loads of detail.

There's also one of the US Office, but it doesn't really work for me - the handheld camera shooting means the layout of the office has never really imprinted in the same way the Friends locations did, it's recognisable but it isn't "iconic" in the same way.
