These highly detailed Arrested Development paper doll sets succeed in terms of amusement and accuracy. Etsy seller HeartlessUniverse has created an intricate collection of paper dolls and accessories perfect for reliving your favorite Arrested Development moments you’ve watched too many times.
Currently Chance Kroll (the artist behind HeartlessUniverse) has three sets available separately or together in a "mega-fan mega-set." The Cornballer set is a recreations of the entire set for the informercial for the Cornballer, including a Richard Simmons doll. The frozen banana stand comes with George Michael, Maeby and T-bone, which definitely proves its the details that set these paper dolls apart from the rest.
My personal favorite (and possibly the most tempting) is Gob’s Magic Kit, an awesome collection of all of Gob’s best illusion accessories, like the Aztec tomb, the Sword of Destiny, a refrigerated dove and of course, a copy of "The Final Countdown" by Europe LP. The hilarious stair-car is also available for order!
