Dorbz Futurama "Leela" Vinyl Collectible by Funko.

Dorbz Futurama "Leela" Vinyl Collectible by Funko. #095. Released 2016. Futurama is an American animated science fiction sitcom created by Matt Groening that aired on Fox from March 28, 1999, to August 10, 2003, and on Comedy Central from March 23, 2008, to September 4, 2013. The series follows the adventures of slacker Philip J. Fry, who is cryogenically preserved for 1000 years and is revived in the 31st century. Fry finds work at an interplanetary delivery company, working alongside the one-eyed Leela and robot Bender. The series was envisioned by Groening in the mid-1990s while working on The Simpsons; he brought David X. Cohen aboard to develop storylines and characters to pitch the show to Fox. Turanga Leela is a fictional character from the animated television series Futurama. Leela is spaceship captain, pilot, and head of all aviation services on board the Planet Express Ship. Throughout the series, she has an on-again, off-again relationship with Philip J. Fry, the central character in the series. The character, voiced by Katey Sagal, is named after the Turangalîla-Symphonie by Olivier Messiaen. She is one of the few characters in the cast to routinely display competence and the ability to command, and routinely saves the rest of the cast from disaster. However, she suffers extreme self-doubt because she has only one eye and grew up as a bullied orphan. She first believes herself an alien, but later finds out she is the least-mutated sewer mutant in the history of 31st-century Earth. Her family parodies aspects of pollution and undesirability associated with industrial New Jersey when compared with New York City. Made for ages 14 and up. Made in Vietnam. DORBZ are small vinyl figures manufactured by Funko. Most stand at about three inches tall. All DORBZ figures are meant to be adorable, which is shortened to "adorbs" to create the name. DORBZ is one of the most popular Funko lines today, behind the Pop! collections. Unlike Pop! with its different categories, DORBZ figures are uniquely gathered under one roof, except for a few DORBZ Star Wars and Freddy Funko exclusives, which are featured lower on this page in their own respective tables.
