I want to get the Dib one, but the figures are nowhere to be found where I live. I don't like going to the mall that much, but I'll try to go this week to find out if they got any or not. Maybe they got some in the last few months.

As of March 2006, there are two seasons of figures to collect. Both are released by Palisades Toys, famous for its replications of Transformers and Muppets. In addition, Hot Topic carries exclusive variants of the normal Palisades figures. They have slightly different facial expressions, different equipment "spreads" and mini-base stands. These mini-bases can be used to pose a favourite figure on its own, without the need for the backdrop. The Hot Topic variants are not sold at the Palisades online store, which makes collecting every variant worthwhile.
The first collection includes the following characters:
Tallest Purple with Mobile Command Platform Thingy
HT -- Grinning Tallest Purple
Dib with Earth Defense Force Workstation
HT -- Angry Dib
Irken Zim with Secret Underground Lab Computer
HT -- Snarling Zim
"Normal" GIR with Saucer Moron Convention
HT -- "Duty Mode" GIR
Miss Bitters with Skoolroom Desk and Chalkboard
HT -- Growling Miss Bitters
The second collection includes the following characters:
GIR in Doggie Suit, includes "Mega Part" 1 of 4
HT -- Screaming GIR in Doggie Suit (Hood Removed)
Robo-Mom and Robo-Dad, includes "Mega Part" 2 of 4
HT -- Altered Robo-Mom and Robo-Dad
Gaz with Membrane's Hoverscreen, includes "Mega Part" 3 of 4
HT -- Homicidal Gaz (eyes open, gritted teeth)
Skoolboy Zim, includes "Mega Part" 4 of 4
HT -- Skoolboy Zim with Pustulio
Snarling Tallest Red, includes Mobile Command Platform Thingy
HT -- Grinning Tallest Red
The "Mega Parts" combine to form Zim's front yard, house front and living room. Red's Command Platform connects to Purple's, and vice versa.
There is the highly sought-after "Mega GIR," a 12 inch tall GIR figure with a removable fabric Doggie Suit. You can place GIR in the Doggie Suit, or you could stuff the Doggie suit with cotton and make a plushie from it.
The Palisades Toys IZ Forum is taking suggestions on Season Three figures, plus includes tips from owners of figures on maintenance, repair and things like loose joints and resin/paint curing. All assembly instructions are online. Keep in mind that, while these figures are well articulated and can be used as playthings, they are also rather fragile, and would probably be best kept on display.
Oh, yes! I almost forgot! The HT variant of Season 1 Zim has a non-removable Pak! If you manage to remove it, you've broken it. The other Paks are removable so Zim can use his spider legs, but the legs are very fragile and should be moved about gently to prevent them from breaking.
