My quick trip to the Kid Robot store in NYC earlier today resulted in $34 worth of tiny toys. While the $8 price tag is perhaps a bit steep for a tiny figure, I did manage to get a Monarch figure, along with Carl (from ATHF), Orel (from Moral Orel) and Assy McGee. I'm not amazingly excited by any of them aside from the Monarch, so if you happen to have a Dr. Girlfriend, Toki, Avenger or Birdgirl, you should totally contact me for a trade. If you're curious about how rare each figure is, here are the numbers from the box:
  • » 1/25 - Assy McGee (Assy McGee)
  • » 2/25 - Dr. Girlfriend (Venture Bros.)
  • » 1/50 - Ignignokt & Err (ATHF)
  • » 1/25 - Avenger (Birdman)
  • » 2/25 - Orel (Moral Orel)
  • » 2/25 - Toki Wartooth (Metalocalypse)
  • » 2/25 - Robot Chicken (dur)
  • » 1/50 - Lil (Squidbillies)
  • » 3/25 - Early (Squidbillies)
  • » 1/25 - Granny (Squidbillies)
  • » 3/25 - The Monarch (Venture Bros.)
  • » 1/25 - Murderface (Metalocalypse)
  • » 1/25 - Birdgirl (Birdman)
  • » 1/50 - Mad Scientist (Robot Chicken)
  • » 3/25 - Carl (ATHF)
  • » 1/25 - Killface (Frisky Dingo)
Plus two mystery figures of unknown rarity. However when you add all of those numbers up you get 24.5/25 (or 49/50), so it's pretty safe to say you have a meager 1/100 chance of getting a mystery figure. The good news is that Dr. Girlfriend and the Monarch are both fairly common, so Venture fans stand a pretty good chance of getting one. At any rate, Assy McGee and Orel up for trade! Taking all offers who are Avenger, Birdgirl and Toki! Nothing will come from this, will it?

Is this going to be it for action figures? I was really hoping this would be the year we finally get a figure series for the show. Either Jackson or Doc had alluded to the fact that actual merchandise would happen this year in some interview or blog I read. I hope this isn't what they were talking about, and a calendar certainly doesn't count. I know for my part I would buy the entire series obsessively if they made figures...

First footage! Title revealed! https://youtu.be/eXJ5OM9RfV8 Synopsis and cast too! “In The Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart, a nationwide manhunt for Hank Venture leads to untold dangers and unexpected revelations, while the Monarch is literally out for Dr. Venture’s blood. An imposing evil from the past reemerges to wreak havoc on the Ventures, the Guild, and even the Monarch marriage—it will take friends and foes alike to restore the Ventures’ world to order… or end it once and for all.” The voice cast includes the returning James Urbaniak as Dr. Venture, Patrick Warburton as Brock Samson, Michael Sinterniklaas as Dean Venture, Chris McCulloch as Hank Venture, and The Venture Bros. co-creator Doc Hammer as Dr. Mrs. The Monarch. (Hammer and series co-creator Jackson Publick also wrote the script, and Publick directed.) Other voice cast members include Nina Arianda as Mantilla, Clancy Brown as Daisy and Red Death, John Hodgeman as Snoopy, Hal Lublin as Clayton, Jane Lynch as Bobbi St. Simone, Charles Parnell as Jefferson Twilight, Jay Pharoah as Nuno Blood, Steven Rattazzi as Dr. Orpheus, JK Simmons as Ben, and Dana Snyder as The Alchemist. A project of Titmouse, Adult Swim, and Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment, all that radiant baboon heart blood will be gushing forth later this year.

Okay, Venturoos. Here's what ya get for the Extras, at least on the DVD version. I felt it was a little light, but that's just my opinion. Deleted Scenes (as always) - Some are B&W sketches with the dialog, others are animated with the dialog. Ghost in the Pro-Blem - An extended view of the distorted images of events from the Pro-BLEM's point of view. Maybe there are some clues hidden in it if you like frame-by-frame advancing. Maybe not. Sirena Goes Off... - Cristin Milioti ad-libbing way more dialog than the script calls for. Poor Rocco. Promo - Basically the season 7 promo. Maybe there's Easter Eggs to find. I haven't done any extensive searching yet. If anyone finds any feel free to post them here!
