Kidrobot is continuing its ongoing partnership with The Simpsons franchise with the release of the 'Stupid Sexy Flanders 8" Vinyl Figure.'
Based on the episode called 'Little Big Mom' that first aired in 2000, the toy depicts Homer's neighbor in his revealing ski suit as he joins the family on the slopes. The bright red and blue suit sticks to Flanders' every curve, making for a comical statement piece that instantly reminds any fan of the iconic episode.
Kidrobot aims to release the toy in the coming months as an exclusive collectible, which joins a wide range of vinyl figures, plush toys, keychains, and more that pay homage to the cartoon and its long-standing legacy.
