TUBBZ – Ducks with a Sense of Character
Some collectible figures want to impress you; TUBBZ just want a grin first. British manufacturer Numskull's line translates characters from movies, TV shows, and games into rubber-duck form – with surprising seriousness in the details: armor, cloaks, weapons, and hairstyles are faithfully carried over into duck format, officially licensed and produced as PVC display figures. Their trademark is the packaging: every duck arrives in a transparent, bathtub-shaped display box that doubles as a presentation stand. At Elbenwald you'll find a wide TUBBZ selection spanning pop culture – from Middle-earth to the dinosaur park to classic movie horror.
What makes TUBBZ stand out?
The contrast. The joke of a TUBBZ figure comes from the gap between iconic gravity and duck bill – a Sauron in full armor stays menacing right up until you notice he waddles. At the same time, Numskull takes the collecting side seriously: many designs come in numbered editions, popular characters appear in multiple variants, and the bathtub boxes stack into a uniform collection look that few figure lines can match. The mini format condenses the whole idea down to its essentials. And because the duck principle treats every license the same, a TUBBZ collection mixes worlds that would otherwise never meet – the pond makes everyone equal.
