Funko Fusion’s newest character reveal is KFC mascot, founder, and precise human being Colonel Sanders (Colonel Harland David Sanders handed away over 40 years in the past). And when you eat sufficient KFC hen you will get a particular model of the late quick meals icon in a mech swimsuit. Actually.
Final 12 months, we had been launched to Funko Fusion, a third-person motion recreation starring Funko Pop figures from completely different franchises and types, like The Factor, Again to the Future, and Jurassic Park. Funko Fusion, created by some former Lego recreation dev, launches later this week. And to get folks, uh, let’s say excited concerning the upcoming recreation, KFC and developer 10:10 Video games have introduced a weird crossover.
On September 9, 10:10 Video games and KFC launched a quick trailer exhibiting off Colonel Sanders as he seems in Funko Fusion. At one level within the trailer, Sanders shoots the alien monster from The Factor with items of fried hen that he launches out of a striped red-and-white KFC bucket. That is actual. That is occurring proper now. And you may’t cease it.
In a press launch concerning the KFC/Funko crossover, 10:10 Video games defined that there shall be three variations of Colonel Sanders within the recreation. The fundamental white swimsuit model shall be included within the base recreation. The chef outfit variant shall be out there free to KFC rewards members. And at last, if you wish to unlock and use the mech swimsuit variant of Colonel Sanders (an actual man who as soon as walked this Earth), you’ll want 250 KFC reward factors. That’s about $25 value of hen.
I’d make a joke at this level about how Sanders is spinning in his grave, however the dude’s probably used to it by now. KFC has been shameless in turning Sanders right into a corporate-owned cartoon mascot. Keep in mind that courting recreation they made? Or that horrible romantic movie? Truthfully, in comparison with that shit, this Funko Fusion crossover is sort of cute compared. Virtually.
Funko Fusion arrives on Xbox Collection X/S, PS5, and PC on September 13.
