Burgermenos Qee Series
Jon’s Burgermenos set of a dozen egg-shaped Qee comprised the 2007 Magic of Color series for Toy2R. The 2.5-inch collectible plastic figures were sold blind-boxed and each contains one of 12 characters designed and doodled by Jon. (Some of the egg Qee have ears.) This was really the pinnacle of color for me; for the years preceding this series I meticulously collected black, green, clear and G.I.D. Qee only. Now I’m crazy for color and I’ve got the Gary Baseman egg Qee, etc.. There are 8 standard figures and 4 chase figures in the Burgermenos series. The standard figures are: Grimlock, Hemple, Jitter, Jonquil, Snowbert, Tootles, Zambo and Bazoo. The figures work with standard Qee stands that fit into their foot holes. Although they are no longer in production, they can usually be found on eBay or online at retailers like Future Plastik (from whom some of the following photos come).
