The concept of group action figures has become a steady inside joke and commentary on group behavior.

Origin

During the Summer of 2005, while in the midst of an action figure buying spree, Brett and Terry came up with a system of immortalizing people's quirks by releasing a select line of poseable figurines. This came about during a conversation in which Brett was explaining Terry's various states of being, the most prominent of which was "Terry is Tired Terry." Hence, the syntax for this system generally follows the formula: (Name) is (Adjective) (Name), such as "Andy is Oblivious Andy."

List of Figures

Andy

  • Andy is Updating Facebook Andy
  • Andy is Oblivious Andy
  • Andy is Indignant Andy (with launchable shoe)

  • Brett Loses Equilibrium Brett (cannot stand on own)
  • Brett is Ironic Brett

Jim

  • Jim is Disgruntled Barista Jim (has many coffee stains on otherwise spotless apron from dissatisfied yuppies)
  • Jim is Earthworm Jim

Terry

  • Terry is Bored Terry (the original)
  • Terry is Tired Terry
  • Terry is Elusive Terry (only one in a hundred packages actually contains said action figure, comes with cell phone that rings but cannot be answered)
