Doll From What We Do In The Shadows

Doll From What We Do In The Shadows

Okay, let's talk about something delightfully weird from the world of "What We Do in the Shadows." You know, the mockumentary about vampires living in Staten Island. It's not about biting and blood… entirely. It's about roommates, petty squabbles, and occasionally, a very strange doll.

The Curious Case of the Colin Robinson Doll

Remember Colin Robinson, the energy vampire? The guy who drains the life out of you with boring stories? Well, someone made a doll of him. Not just any doll, but a doll that embodies his very essence: dullness.

The doll made its appearance on eBay, offered by a very talented artist. It wasn't some mass-produced, plastic thing. It was handmade, detailed, and, dare I say, slightly unsettling. Imagine having a mini-Colin Robinson staring at you from your shelf.

Why is it Funny?

The humor lies in the sheer absurdity of it all. Who would want a Colin Robinson doll? It's like wanting a miniature version of your tax accountant. But that's precisely what makes it hilarious! It's so specific, so niche, so perfectly aligned with the show's quirky sensibility.

Think about it: the show itself mocks the tropes of vampire lore. A Colin Robinson doll takes that a step further, satirizing the idea of collectible merchandise. It's a collectible… of boredom. A true feat of comedic artistry.

The doll is so accurate, capturing Colin Robinson's blank stare and unassuming attire. It is like a tiny portal into the vampire's mundane world. You could almost hear it droning on about municipal zoning regulations.

A Tribute to the Mundane

In a world obsessed with the epic and extraordinary, the Colin Robinson doll celebrates the opposite. It's a monument to the mundane, a reminder that even the most boring things can be funny. Isn’t that a powerful message?

The creation of the doll also speaks to the power of fandom. People love "What We Do in the Shadows" so much that they're willing to invest their time and creativity into making incredibly specific tributes. The artist didn’t just make a vampire doll, they captured a whole mood.

It demonstrates the dedication and imagination of the show's followers. They are not just watching; they are engaging with the show on a creative level.

Beyond the Laughs

While the doll is undoubtedly funny, there's something almost endearing about it. It represents the underdog, the unappreciated, the guy who's always overlooked. Isn’t Colin Robinson the soul of every office?

Maybe, just maybe, having a Colin Robinson doll on your desk could be a reminder to appreciate the small things in life. Even the boring ones. Or at least a reminder to laugh at the absurdity of it all.

So, next time you're feeling a little drained, think of the Colin Robinson doll. It may not give you energy, but it will definitely give you a chuckle. And sometimes, that's exactly what you need. It is a doll of an energy vampire after all.

It is an amazing thing. I would love to have one.
