Sep 23 2009Yikes!: Pee Wee's Playhouse Action Figures
Just looking at this $140 set of action figures makes me question what the hell my parents were thinking letting me watch such a wack-ass program as a child (I suspect they were thinking "booze time!"). I mean, it's pretty amazing I still turned out alright. Somebody, anybody, back me up here.
The 80's classic Pee-Wee's Playhouse is back with this line of action figures. The case of 14 pieces includes the following characters: 6x Pee Wee Herman, 3x Cowboy Curtis, 3x Miss Yvonne, 1x Pterri, and 1x Puppetland (Subject to change). These figures are highly detailed and must have for any Pee-Wee fan. Comes in retro-packaging to further the retro feel.Wait, what? What the hell am I gonna do with 6 damn Pee Wee Herman dolls? 3 gay Cowboy Curtises, sure (I can't quit you!), but six Pee Wees? No thanks. Also, you notice Pee Wee's hand there on the left? Not a coincidence.

Pee Wee's Playhouse was awesome and you know it! The campiness of that show was a lot better than corny lines from every other cartoon that was out at that time (ie G.I. Joe, He-Man, and the Thundercats).
These toys are just creepy...

(Cowboy Curtis to PeeWee)
"Well, Pee Wee, you know what they say about guys with big boots?.....
Big feet"
Has anyone ever gone back and watched these shows now?
There is actually some funny innuendo in them.

Whenever we would pass an adult bookstore/movie theater, or stip club, my step-dad would tell us, "Hey look, there is Pee Wee's Playhouse!"

Man, I had the original Jambi-head toy as a kid! Kinda wish I still had it...I could use a daily wish.
9. Lisa - September 23, 2009 2:38 PM
Haha, I actually had a Pee-Wee, and the chair, action figure when I was little.

What...no Captain Carl? No Chairy?
Instead of receiving 9 multiples total of the same 3 characters, other fairly prevalent characters from the show could have also been produced.

Wait, wait, wait, wait...the lamp that works off of freakin' human blood didn't make the cut to get posted, but Pee Wee's Playhouse action figures DID??? Wow.
Only two things I liked Paul Reubens in were Cheech & Chong movies and Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie (and that really only boiled down to one line he had after his arm got cut off). Of course, I was WAAYYY too high to really remember any of Pee Wee's Big Adventure, so that may have been good too...not sure.

22. Johnny B - September 23, 2009 4:19 PM
@21
Did you know Captain Kangaroo used to get hanjobs & bjs from his wife under the table while he would do puppet show?
SERIOUSLY!

Good call on Batman Returns. Yes, I had completely spaced it off that he was little Ozzie Cobblepot's father. Think he's actually done a guest spot or two on 30 Rock as well, so I guess I'll stop the Pee Wee hatin'.
Guess I'll have to go see a guy about a thing, and turn on the tube at 8 to see what's up (or just TiVo it and jam out to some Counterstrike till it's done - unless the gf and kiddos want to drag me along to do some levelling on wow).

I'm not going to lie, I had a Pee Wee lunch box, thermos and all, and watched it religiously, I think if I were to spawn a kid or 2 I might even buy the DVD's if they are available because it is just such a crack headed show, no education, just silly and strange, the way tv should be!

New - PeeWee Herman doll with Kung Foo Grip
27. Ham Bone - September 23, 2009 9:23 PM

28. Ryan G - September 23, 2009 10:00 PM
whatever...I had these toys way back in the day...except I also had konky, magic screen, randy, the king of cartoons, that guy that wore soccer shorts, chairy, and not to mention the entire pee-wee's playhouse playset....I even made my own giant foil ball.

Paul Reubens was a great comedian. I remember how awesome his show PeeWee's Playhouse was but that in the end is what did him in. If you watch any of his early adult comedy routines you would know that a lot of it was based on sex. He made the mistake by letting producers take his "PeeWee" character and make it an actual kids show. When anything "adult" about him came out in his personal life he was raised over hot coals. But in the end I know of him because of his kids show.....so.....I guess I can't really complain.
