Disney Recalls Yord Bobbleheads Amid Neck-Snapping Epidemic
*Orlando, FL* — In a stunning turn of events, Disney has issued a recall for their beloved Yord bobbleheads. The reason? A widespread malfunction that has parents everywhere clutching their Mickey Mouse ears in horror.
The Yord bobblehead, a pint-sized collectible modeled after the enigmatic character from the series “The Acolyte,” has become a staple on office desks, car dashboards, and even bathroom shelves. But behind those googly eyes and spring-loaded neck lies a dark secret: a penchant for decapitation.
Reports flooded in from concerned parents who witnessed their child’s Yord bobblehead spontaneously snap its own neck. “It was like watching a tiny, plastic guillotine,” said one traumatized mother. “My little Timmy was playing with it, and suddenly—*pop!*—off came Yord’s head. It ricocheted across the room like a caffeinated ping pong ball.”
Disney’s official statement blames a “manufacturing glitch” for the neck-breaking epidemic. Apparently, the Yord bobbleheads were assembled by overzealous factory workers who misunderstood the concept of “bobble.” Instead of a gentle nod, they engineered a spring-loaded catapult that launches Yord’s head into orbit.
“We deeply apologize for any inconvenience,” said Disney spokesperson Daisy Duck (who, incidentally, has her own bobblehead but insists it’s perfectly safe). “We’re working tirelessly to fix this issue. In the meantime, we recommend storing your Yord bobbleheads in a padded room, preferably one without children.”
The recall notice advises parents to return their Yord bobbleheads to the nearest Disney store. In exchange, they’ll receive a limited-edition “Headless Yord” figurine—a headless Yord clutching its own severed head. It’s a macabre twist, but Disney assures us it’s all in good fun.
Meanwhile, the black market for intact Yord heads is booming. Collectors are paying top dollar for the rare item, and rumors suggest that even Charlie Barnett, the actor who portrayed Yord onscreen, wants one for his studio. “Nothing says ‘Hey look ma, I made it’ like a decapitated bobblehead,” he allegedly mused.
So, parents, be vigilant. Check your Yord bobbleheads regularly. And remember, it’s all fun and games until someone loses their head—literally.
