This may look like a Donald Trump Peep candy shoved into a snow dome, but no, dear reader, it’s not. It’s a rubber duckie, based on Fallout’s Nuka-Cola Pinup Girl. What, couldn’t you tell? More importantly, it’s a Tubbz, and it is definitely 2019’s most available collectible or toy.
Skyrim’s Twitter burped out something earlier this day that made us all go “Hnnnnh?” in Slack.
FUS RO DUCK! ⚔️

Look, it’s Jarl Baalgruf as a rubber duck! The human language really is capable of forming totally unique sentences every day, isn’t it? That’s the kind of conversation piece you’re getting with a Tubbz, folks. Can Funkos do that? Thought so. Here’s Ulfric close up:

Go over to the cats who make these things, though, and you’ll see they’ve got some serious licensing muscle to mold that vinyl: Destiny, Borderlands, Spyro and Street Fighter are all in the Tubbz stable of brands. Here, I promise this is Blanka, and not Dog the Bounty Hunter:

The marketing copy for this actually creates a new word: Quackouken! Such is the innovative might of Tubbz. Blanka’s bathing buddies include Ryu, Ken and Chun Li. If you’re more into movies or comic books, there’s a Ghostbusters line, a Batman foursome and a Lord of the Rings quartet.
None of these are out yet. They’re all up for pre-order, and they run $12.99 each through Geek Store. They come in a collectible bathtub display box with a clear top. What, you’re actually gonna take it in the bath with you?
