I don’t collect bobbleheads, but the latest offering from Big Bang Pow! has me weak at the knees. Now average Americans like you and me can bring home a talking bobble head in the likeness of the sexual dynamo that is Kenny FUCKING Powers.

Bif Bang Pow! secured the license to Eastbound & Down, who have been putting out an impressive array of products for other franchises like: LOST, The Venture Bros., The Big Lebowski, and Flash Gordon.

From the Press Release:

With more heat than a Kenny Powers fastball, the two 7-inch resin bobble heads of the has-been pitcher are already warming up in the bullpen with the first expected to arrive this summer, just in time for Comic-Con International: San Diego 2010 in July. Officially licensed through HBO Licensing & Retail, it features the Kenny Powers character in a baseball uniform. The second bobble head has Kenny in an all-black outfit (complete with sunglasses) that the show’s fans will instantly recognize. Both figures voice catchy and unforgettable phrases spouted by Powers throughout the series.

I beg of the Bif Bang Pow! Overlords to give us a Stevie Janoski bobblehead … then all will be right in this world.

Last summer at San Diego Comic Con, Big Bang Pow! unveiled their line of the action figures from the hit series LOST. The prototypes were very impressive and excited a good number of LOSTies (myself included). Finally, after the lackluster McFarlane line, we would be getting a properly designed and articulated collectible line.

A couple of days ago, Big Bang Pow! announced that for several of their licenses: Venture Bros., Flash Gordon, Dexter, The Big Lebowski, and LOST would be getting the Mego treatment. Remember those cloth action figures with the big plastic heads from the 70’s? Well that’s what were getting instead of the fantastic prototypes we saw last summer. This was all but confirmed by e-retailer Entertainment Earth indicated via their twitter feed that the prototypes we saw last summer at SDCC are simply that. This Mego line is IT, and I’ve posted some official pictures.

I wouldn’t be so bothered by this other than the fact that the sculpts on these LOST Megos are frightening. So scary looking that I’d be afraid that little Mego Ben would come to life while I’m sleeping and try to steal my breath like that Troll from Cat’s Eye.

If you are a braver individual than myself, head on over to Entertainment Earth where all of them are up for pre-order.
