Twenty-five years after Blink-182 released Take Off Your Pants and Jacket, Encore! Toy Co. (a Rockabilia.com subsidiary) is marking the anniversary with an officially licensed set of 7-inch vinyl figures depicting Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge, and Travis Barker in their "First Date"-era looks.

Pre-orders open Thursday, September 24, exclusively through EncoreToyCo.com, with figures expected to ship February 2027.

"Blink-182 has been a huge part of my life since I discovered them in '97, and they were really the catalyst for me getting into punk rock," says Encore! Toy Co. co-owner Frankie Blydenburgh. "Take Off Your Pants and Jacket was such a defining record for so many fans, and getting to celebrate its 25th anniversary this way is something I'm incredibly proud to be a part of."

Released in 2001, Take Off Your Pants and Jacket delivered enduring Blink-182 staples including "The Rock Show," "First Date," and "Stay Together for the Kids," and remains one of the most referenced eras in the band's catalog for merch and nostalgia alike.
