GMMore 2407: Guess The Crazy Funko Character

Welcome to “Good Mythical More”. You know, the world is full of Funko Pops. My kids’ bedrooms are full of Funko pops. I mean, they’ll be like floor to ceiling in these stores. All of them? All your kids do it? At different times, to different levels they have. And then at a certain point, I think Lily wanted money for something and then I just found a bunch of Funko pops wrapped up and she had like eBayed them. Got a little business. She got a little business. Huh. She removed the heads first. Good, well, you’ll be right at home. No, that’s what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna identify Funko pops headless. So if you’re not into that, click away. But first, a random disturbing fact. Giant beavers, the size of black bears once roamed the lakes and wetlands of North America. Ooh that’s cool. That’s not surprising, man. North America used to have giant things- Big old mammals. We have big old bears, giant bears, giant sloths. I wish I could go back. A big old- If you could go back to the- big, big mammal times. And then just saddle one up. I’ve, I’ve seen footage of pet beavers in homes building dams out of household items that they’re just like… How? I don’t even know. It’s on TikTok, but I don’t know how- House beavers like Where, what, how do you have a house, beaver? It’s… why do you have a house Beaver? It’s wild. Seems strange. I don’t know. How does… Maybe you build a house where a beaver already is? So then you have to include them, You have to invite ’em to everything. If you don’t, then they come back and haunt you after they die. Mm. You don’t wanna be haunted by a beaver. All right, let’s see the first one here. That is Dwight from the office. That’s a businessman of some sort. That’s a Rainn Wilson. You think that- Wilt son? Rain Wiltson Shoot. Man, that’s a good guess. And its the correct one. Yeah. Well because he wears the mustard shirt and he always has his phone. Yep, yep. Did you see, you know Rainn went around promoting his book, which I wanna read “The Soul Bloom” or something like that. Mm hm, something like that. He’s a thoughtful guy. He was telling a story about being on a plane next to the- you know how, on at least Delta, they’ve got all those backlog episodes of “Office”, and the guy sitting next to him on the plane watched “The Office” the whole time without realizing he was sitting next to Rainn Wilson. Because I think Rainn had a mask on. And then at the end of the thing, he was like “You like that ‘Office,’ huh?” He’s like, “Yeah.” And Rain was like, “Yeah, I heard it’s okay.” Then he said, “Well, yeah, the first couple seasons are kind of slow.” He’s like talking to him about it for a couple of minutes before he realized You’re talking to Dwight right now. That is funny. A friend of the show. You know, I had him on the show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And- How about another? Don’t have his Funko Pop. My kids also went through an “Office” phase, which I was proud. Oh yeah. That they were big into “The Office.” It holds up. So this is wrestling Dwight. It seems like he’s untucked his shirt and he’s ready to grapple. Who-? Who would’ve a tie? A disheveled tie, untucked shirt And Lulu Lemon pants, boots. Who’s a big handed businessman? Is this like “Wreck-It Ralph” or something? I don’t know anything about it. I never watched that. Is it, can we get a hint about like what genre we’re in? I think you said, “Wrestler.” Oh, it is a wrestler. Yeah. Oh wow. What wrestler- He had- dresses like this? wrestler Hands. I think this might be Mankind. Hey. Is it? Oh yeah. Wow. Yeah, the Mask really sets it off. What Era is Mankind from? The Stone Cold Attitude era. Stone Cold Attitude era. I was not a viewer then but- I had checked out by that point. Do we know if Mankind was ever anybody else without the mask, Carney? Yeah, he had a few personalities. He was Cactus Jack without the mask. He was Dude Love without the mask. Dude Love. And he was Mick Foley- sometimes without the Mask. Oh, he’s Mick Foley. Yeah that’s Foley, yeah. And he had multiple personalities. Oh. I love that. And what is the mask supposed to be? Is it like a Chainsaw Massacre? No, that would be Skid. It’s inspired by that. It is inspired by that. But there’s no real story behind it, he’s just kind of like a disturbed man. Yeah. That’s a good- scary mask. Office worker. Disturbed office worker. Yeah. Next. Okay, so this- That’s the guy from Nightmare on- Jack Skellington. Yeah. Mm. Nightmare. Whoa. That’s cool. What is it called? “Nightmare Before Christmas.” Christmas. “Night Before Christmas” So just to continue to talk about my children. I did not watch any of the, these movies, like the “Coraline” or “The Nightmare before Christmas.” I didn’t see any of them until they told me that I had to watch ’em. They’re all very good. Did you not like ’em? I do like ’em. They’re good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I was missing out. That’s why you have kids. So they can tell you about the things you’re missing out on when they get old enough. Morgan, don’t worry. Like, you’ll start to benefit- you pretty much, You know, it’s about keeping the little ones alive and then one day the tables will turn. It’s funny ’cause a lot of parents think about the stuff that they can show their kids that they didn’t experience as kids. Right. You get the things that your kids are experiencing now, to show their dad. It’s like, “Why do you always show your dad things?” “Well, he was missing for a long time as a child.” Like, what is the explanation? We don’t have an explanation. Well, I give them the Bunker explanation. You know, like that Brendan Frazier movie. Well, it’s I tell them that was me. It’s like those folks that are like raising a cult and they can’t watch any movies until they get out, when they’re like 20. Yeah, I was just raised as your friend But I was watching all the movies. I don’t, I know, I know. We’ve been through this. Before we get to the next one, we wanna remind you and humbly ask you to participate in the Mythical Census.
