It's really too bad that the Speed Racer Movie was a bomb this summer. It seemed like a good idea to do a movie tie-in with UB Funkeys because when these things work, they raise the profiles of both parties. More Speed Racer fans might have checked out UB Funkeys and more UB Funkey fans might have checked out Speed Racer. It's too bad they didn't do something with the movie Ironman or even Indiana Jones.

But not all is lost for UB Funkeys this summer. The new Dream State will also be launched with new features and improvements.

Here's a video of some of the new Dream State characters with some Speed Racer stuff mixed in.
