I already commented about El Chapulín Colorado being the latest victim of Fortnite... I kinda mentioned that it would be cool if Hasbro made a Fortnite version of el Chapulín in their Fortnite line...
Well, the announcement of GI Joe wave 2 made me think and I believe it would be better if el Chapulín was made by Spuer7 instead.
Think about it:
Hasbro would only give us Chapulín, his Chipote Chillón and a pair of hands.
With Super7 we would get:
-Chapulín
-Extra Head(s)
-extra hands
-Chipote Chillón, his squeaky hammer
-Chicharra Paralizadora, his paralyzing Horn
-Envase de pastillas de chiquitolina, a bottle of his shrinking pills
-some Episode specific extras.
-if we're lucky a shrunken Chapulín figurine.
Eventually it could theoretically spawn a Chespirito mini line with the most popular characters from Roberto Gomez Bolaños:
El Doctor Chapatín
El Chómpiras
And his most popular character El Chavo del 8.
Knowing Super7 they'll probably try to sell us Chavo's Barrel for $45...
Now you may asking WHY would they do this?
It's Mexican hipster crap that"no one would buy"...
Well, Chespirito is really well-known in Latin America and beyond. With Super7 being located in California is very likely to have some influence from Mexican stuff... case in point their Los Amos rereleases of their Vintagized Filmation figures.
But this is just a fever dream brought by a weird desire to have an official Chapulín action figure that is worthy of being displayed with "the big boys".
