Go Nagai Kewpie series from Toyful

Your favorite giant robots, your worst nightmare. I can't imagine the brilliant mind that thought these were necessary.

Yeah, Kewpie doll giant robots. And to add insult to injury, they appear to be BOBBLEHEADS.

You can get a case for about $35 bucks, they are blind-boxed. Seven regular figures and one chase.

Clearly I'm not in on the joke here. Someone care to explain to me why these are so repulsive...?
