U.B.Funkeys Hidden Realm Color Variations
The updates to the official site added the above two teaser images for Hidden Realm, including two rarity colors for the Yeti (Light Blue and Pink)and the YinYang (Green and Red) Funkeys. Adding the images we've already seen of the prototypes at SDCC 2008 and the side image from the Dream State starter, we see the following possible variants... (Yin-Yang) Green/Black - official site Red/Black - official site Green/Dark Blue - SDCC White/Green w/very different look - DS package (Yeti) White/Blue - official site White/Pink - official site Green/Tan - SDCC White/Blue w/different expression - DS package (Tiger) Orange/White - official site Green/White - SDCC White/Red - w/very different look* - DS package * I feel that this was likely an early design for what turned out to be the tiger design based on it's similar "tiger/sabertooth" family feel. I could be wrong. (Dragon) Blue/Orange - official site Red/Orange - SDCC White/Red - w/very different look# - DS package # I feel that this was likely an early design for what turned out to be the dragon design based on the flower design that was once on the face and now on the dragon's belly. I could be wrong. ...from SDCC 2008...  ...from side of Dream State starter...  Labels: Funkeys News, Hidden Realm, Images

Dream State Singles, Chat Packs, and Funkeys Speakers!
I finally found some of the new stuff myself this weekend! On Friday, I scored a pair of the Funkey Speakers that look like Scratch. I also saw the Lotus flash drive, but decided to wait on that until later. I'll be hooking them up at work tomorrow to see how they sound. I doubt they'll sound all that fantastic, but that's not the point of these babies and I don't exactly crank up the music at the office... :)  Also, I found the four chat funkeys and well as two Dream State singles, Vlurp and Rare Ptep. Here's a shot of my Dream State Funkeys so far...  They are finally getting a little easier to find. I've seen posts about them now showing at Target, Walmart, Meijers, and K-Mart...

More Images of the Funkeys Computer Speakers
Our forum member webgopher posted some images of the Scratch speakers she bought from Target. As you can see in the images, they are bigger than the UB hub, which is bigger than I expected them to be! The ring around his face also lights up. I do believe I'm going to have to track a set of these down... :) I also see that there are currently a few sets on eBay...

First Screenshots of Nightmare Rift Show Up Online
One of the members over on the official site's forum posted some images of Nightmare Rift after they scored a Ptep figure. Now that the singles are also showing up on eBay, I'm sure this will be old news pretty quickly, but for those who are going to be waiting for their local Targets and Walmarts to get stock, here are some sneak peaks!

More Target Exclusive Funkeys USB Flash Drive Details
It's official! The USB Funkeys Flash Drives are out at Target. One of our forum members, Cuddles, has purchased one of the new USB flash drives from Target. She got a Deuce and took some additional pictures for us...  1) We now see the back of the package that contains images of other Funkeys as well as some text that I can't make out. 2) The complete contents of the package including the Deuce USB Drive, instruction sheet, USB extension cable (for those hard to get to USB ports), and an attachable string/key chain thingy. 3) Flash Drive Deuce with his head off to expose the USB attachment. 4) USB Drive Deuce with the string/key chain thingy attached to his head. 5) Size comparison of the regular U.B.Funkeys Deuce and the Flash Drive Deuce. I had imagined them being bigger, but I'm glad they aren't. Labels: Deuce, Exclusive Funkeys, Funkeys Flash Drives, Funkeys News, Images, Purchasing Funkeys
New Dream State Characters Goya and Marshal
 In this image above, we have two new characters to the Funkeys world. We've had a small peek at them on the main site (see the image below) but we now have clearer images and names to put to the faces!  The one that many have said looks like Boggle in a trench coat is named Marshal. We don't know anything about Marshal's story yet, but look forward to finding out. The monster/dog looking thing is named Goya and is one of the new "bad guys" introduced in Dream State. Labels: Dream State, Funkeys News, Goya, Images, Marshal
All Six Speed Racer U.B.Funkeys... Check!
OK, yes... I still have to hunt down all the variations of the six Speed Racer Funkeys that have been released so far, but I do at least have one of each. And the amazing thing is that I got them all at the store (Toys R Us specifically). But the point is that I found them without having to resort to eBay! That's much better than it's been in the Midwest since the first wave of the first series. What I got was the starter set with the common versions of Speed Racer and Chim-Chim and the following singles... Trixie (common), Racer X (rare), Cannonball Taylor (very rare), and Snake Oiler (very rare). This was actually last week that I got them but I finally took a few pictures with my cellphone. I'll be hitting Toys R Us again tonight to see if they have any more. I'll also take some better pictures soon. Click them for larger images...

Just a quick update to let you all know that the Speed Racer Funkeys' Character Bios have been added to the characters page. There are also small image galleries for each character on those pages. There will be more added, but I wanted to let you know they were up... Also a big thanks to webgopher for typing out the bios for me! Those new pages would have taken me forever to get up without the help... Labels: Cannonball Taylor, Chim-Chim, Images, Racer X, Site Updates, Snake Oiler, Speed Racer, Taejo, Trixie
New Images from the Official UBFunkeys Site
Some great new images have been added to the downloads section on the official Funkeys site. Below, you can click through to the images. There are large versions on the official site, but I didn't know if anyone would want them that big...  Click here to see the whole image... Click here to see the whole image...

As more 2008 New York Toy Fair images are making it to the Internet, we've continued to gather as many as we can that were taken of the U.B.Funkeys display. Added recently are images from MillionairePlayboy.com and Action-Figure.com. So far, the images from Action-Figure.com have been some of the best up-close shots of the new Speed Racer and Dream State series.      Check them all out here in the gallery...Feel free to join the conversation about these images here...Labels: Dream State, Images, Site Updates, Speed Racer, Speedracer, Toy Fair
Funkeys Images and Forum Facelift
I had a little spare time today, so I went ahead and did a little sprucing up in the forum. I've gotten some positive feedback so far so yeah for me! I've also successfully posted small image galleries to each character page now. I still have plenty of other images to use in creating an "Image Gallery" as well, but at least the character pages have a little more meat to them now. Labels: Forum, Images, Site Updates
More Images of Speed Racer Series U.B.Funkeys
Doing a bit more hunting, I came by some images of the Speed Racer Funkeys display that were taken at the 2007 San Diego Comicon by the folks over at Figures.com...    This looks like it's going to be interesting. I'm curious how they'll intermix the storyline of the game. They've already stated that the figures will be compatible. Anyway like I mentioned in the last post, you can pre-order the Speed Racer starter kit on Amazon.com... Labels: Images, Speed Racer, Speedracer
