This set was called Heroes vs. Hollywood because why not? It included this Aquaman parody guy (sorry, I threw away the character sheet so I don't know any official names anymore!)
It also came with a dull blonde pop star type, but if you slap his head on the Notquaman body:
You get a guy who looks a little more like Aquaman. With that costume coloration, he could be a Bizarro Aquaman, I suppose.
Of course I got the set for Jack Wisecracker (I only remember his name because I wrote it down.) Jack looks like the Joker had a baby with Harley Quinn by way of Aku.
As part of the 'Hollywood' bunch is this Goth guy with an ankh and a Misfits haircut. He's silly but I dig him.
Lastly this goof who would be beyond lame if his head didn't work perfectly for an Aquaman stand-in.
I dug around the internet a little and discovered there was a Batman parody figure called Knight Rat. Sigh, now I need to track that guy down!
Apparently, there is also an Uber Woman, who looks a bit like Power Girl and Shazam had a baby. You need her too.
ReplyDeleteHere's a listing for Knight Rat loose:

You'll probably want to buy him this way, seeing as when he's packaged, he comes with Finley Fisksticker (aka red-headed Aquaman); I don't think you want a second one!
I just want to find Knight Rat for cheap, regardless of who he comes with! Thanks for the heads-up!
DeleteOoh and Uber Woman would be a fun one to have!
Deletehey u can scan the sickbricks figure online with a picture
DeleteI will keep my eyes out for you for more of these...We got them at one of our Goodwill shops for sure.
ReplyDeleteThanks John! I wish I had paid closer attention when these were clogging the shelves at Target.
DeleteThese are so fun. Are they still around? I can easily see myself wasting money on them...
ReplyDeleteApparently, it's a mobile app. You can find out more at their website (even if they don't have all of their characters listed): http://www.sickbricks.com/.
DeleteTSD - II don't know if they are still around. I do know they were at Target, then clearanced at Target, then made their way to Goodwill (who gets Target castoffs.) So they may be done for good.
DeleteI just want Jack Wisecracker for my Harley/Joker focus...
