WHAT'S NEW

REACTOR FAILURE! SUPERPLASTIC's 15-Inch NOOKYOOLUR MELTDOWN Lil' Helpers Go Nuclear!!!

WARNING! WARNING! SOMETHING HAS GONE TERRIBLY WRONG AT SUPERPLASTIC HQ! Apparently, somebody forgot to check the reactor, because there's been a catastrophic meltdown, and two highly unstable little troublemakers have escaped onto the factory floor! Introducing the NOOKYOOLUR MELTDOWN Lil' Helpers, a pair of absolutely BONKERS 15-inch-tall soft-vinyl figures that look like they took a swim in a barrel of radioactive sludge and came out grinning! Featuring the familiar faces of Guggi and Janky, these oversized monstrosities are packed with dripping goo, exposed neon-green skeletons, colorful internal organs, and enough bright, toxic-looking colors to make your eyeballs do a double take! And with just 500 pieces of each character being produced, these radioactive-looking troublemakers aren't exactly going to be hanging around forever!

Let's take a closer look at the aftermath of this little reactor disaster, shall we?

First up is GUGGI, and WOW, this poor bunny has seen better days! The familiar long-eared character has been transformed into a purple-and-pink mutant nightmare, with bright pink goo seemingly melting away to expose an enormous neon-green skull underneath. One ear looks like it's practically dissolving, while the character's face has become a wicked-looking skeletal grin. And if that wasn't enough, the torso is split wide open, revealing a bright green rib cage and a colorful pile of purple and blue innards!

There's something wonderfully ridiculous about those long purple ears and oversized shoes paired with a half-melted skull. The bright pink accents really make the whole sculpt pop, and the exposed anatomy gives collectors plenty of little details to discover. This is the sort of design where you notice something new every time you look at it!

And then there's JANKY, who clearly didn't fare any better during the meltdown! Our favorite blue troublemaker has been given a complete biological overhaul, featuring a bright turquoise body, purple overalls, and a massive section of his face overtaken by dripping dark-purple slime. Underneath that mess is another screaming-green skull, while his exposed torso reveals matching green ribs and an assortment of pink and lavender organs!

What makes these figures particularly fun is how differently the same basic concept has been applied to each character. Guggi's purple-and-pink treatment has an almost candy-coated appearance, while Janky's electric-blue body and dark-purple slime create a completely different look. Both share those bright green skeletal features, tying the two designs together as the unfortunate survivors of the same fictional nuclear disaster.

And these aren't little desk-sized collectibles, either! Each NOOKYOOLUR MELTDOWN Lil' Helper stands a whopping 15 INCHES TALL, making them some seriously substantial display pieces. Produced in soft vinyl, the figures feature a combination of purple, blue, green, and pink that makes the sculpted anatomy and gooey details stand out beautifully.

SUPERPLASTIC is keeping the fictional disaster going with promotional artwork and packaging designs that look like they belong to a pair of dangerous factory experiments. The entire presentation has that irreverent, over-the-top personality we've come to expect from the company, and these figures certainly aren't lacking in character!

Now for the important stuff! Guggi and Janky are limited to just 500 pieces EACH, and collectors can choose to pick up their favorite individually or grab both together as a matching pair. According to SUPERPLASTIC's current online store, individual figures are listed at $130 each, while the two-figure NOOKYOOLUR MELTDOWN set is priced at $240, which works out to $120 per figure when purchased together.

Both releases are offered as preorders, with shipping scheduled for APRIL 2027. As always with preorders, dates are estimates and subject to change. You can check out the individual Guggi NOOKYOOLUR MELTDOWN and Janky NOOKYOOLUR MELTDOWN listings, or head over to the SUPER SECRET SUPERFAM STORE to see the full lineup and current preorder availability.

Seriously, these things are ridiculous, and we mean that as a compliment! Between the exposed anatomy, dripping slime, oversized proportions, and fantastic color combinations, the NOOKYOOLUR MELTDOWN Lil' Helpers look like the result of a toy designer being given unlimited access to a radioactive candy factory. And honestly, we're pretty glad nobody stopped them!

So what do you think? Are you going with the purple-and-pink skeletal nightmare that is GUGGI, the electric-blue catastrophe known as JANKY, or are you making room for BOTH of these radioactive weirdos on your shelf?
