FEEL THE BERN(t): After a brutal primary season that has left us with arrows not really pointing in any secure direction here comes one of a small handful of figures based on Senator Bernie Sanders, by Timebandits (David Arshawsky). The "Political Revolution" will continue, and the people's candidate will continue to quietly (and not so much) lead the fight for our freedoms with this very special figure that you will only find at this year's Comic Con. And you guessed it...it will be nowhere other than found at the booth led by our friends DKE/Disburst (#5045) -- see related piece -- here's what we know...
"The political season has been heating up and it feels like there's no stopping this political train wreck. From accusations of greed and corruption to nonsensical statements backed by Yuuuge egos and social media fails for days there seems to be no end in sight! But the folks at TIMEBANDITS couldn't be happier! First they brought you the stubby hand man with the terrible plan, Donald Trump, as a 3 3/4" figure and now just in time to mark his "honorable" endorsement of Firewall-Fail Hillary they bring you Bernie, the Non-Action Figure! Now you too can feel the "Bern" without having to worry about getting a penicillin shot afterwards!"
JOIN THE POLITICAL REVOLUTION: "Bernie will be making his grand debut at San Diego Comic Con (July 20-24) through DKE Toys (booth #5045) in quantities as scarce as the combined common sense of our Presidential Candidates! And for those of you not attending Comic Con you're in luck! The remaining run will be released after SDCC on Tuesday, July 26th at 12PM PST at www.TimebanditsWatches.com for only $75 each, ensuring to sell out faster than the man who's name it bears! So stop chasing imaginary Pokemons into dark alleys and set yourself a reminder because this is one release that's bound to "Bern" into the pages of history!"
TAKE BACK AMERICA: "Bernie" is a 3 ¾” limited edition (non-articulated) hand cast resin figure that comes fully carded with artwork produced by Timebandits @timebandits__ (https://www.instagram.com/timebandits__/). Sculpted by David Arshawsky @turtlemilkstudios (https://www.instagram.com/turtlemilkstudios/) and painted by ToddAction @topo1622 (https://www.instagram.com/topo1622/). The political art on the cardback sheds light on array of subjects that have been exposed throughout this campaign cycle. Can you spot and name them all?
Though we were saddened at Sanders' endorsement of Hillary Clinton you can always catch up with the man here: berniesanders.com
