Super Series Sunday Release from Taskone x Tenacious Toys

    Yeah, I know you need some more Muppets in your life.  How do I know?  Cause I stalk you on Facebook.  I really have nothing better to do all day.  

    Taskone and Tenacious Toys are releasing more custom Muppets for you this Sunday, April 21st.  Get one blind box for $40, or all three for $100.  And you can still get a full set for $600.  Jim Henson would want you to.  

Buried Treasure Mummy Boy from Super7

    Do you remember when there was a Leprechaun running around Alabama and this guy just wanted to know "where the gold at?"  Boy I do, and now I can finally point him in the right direction because Super7 are releasing the new Buried Treasure Mummy Boy today! Just look at this guy, he's all shiny and sparkly and can be yours today at noon Pacific time for $50.  Don't be surprised when people see this if they start asking you for money cause they assume you're rich like Kanye West.  That's the price of having such fabulous taste.  

Semi Korosiya RGB Edition from Cop A Squat Toys

    Is Cop A Squat Toys the best name for a company ever?  I'm thinking so, and I'm also thinking they need to branch out into many more divisions.  Cop A Squat Appliance Repair, Cop A Squat Home Health Aids, Cop A Squat Burger Shack.  Basically, I just want to be able to give all of my money to businesses with that name.  Is it juvenile of me?  Maybe a tad.  No one ever accused me of being the most reasonable person they know.  

    These Semi Korosiya figures are really really cool.  They're made out of clear vinyl and actually have a screen printed insert inside of them to add some depth and detail.  You can snag one of these 8 inch figures today at 3pm Eastern time for $75 at http://copasquattoys.bigcartel.com/.

More Pop! Vinyl Figures from Funko

    It seems like every other day that I'm posting news about Funko's Pop! Vinyl line.  How on Earth do they churn out so many figures?  Do they ever take days off?  Do their families even remember what they look like?  Have they perfected human cloning?  I don't know how they do it, but I'm glad they do, because I'm on a new budget that my toy collecting brain has not come to terms with.  And beign that these figures are ridiculously affordable, I can the ones I want and not have to skip any meals.  All of these guys release May 16th except for Ace Ventura who comes out on the 21st. 

DC Bombshells Statues

    Before the age of the internet, where every girl with a camera and a Facebook page now thinks they are models, pin up girls were much harder to come by.  They were reserved for the nose cones of airplanes in war or the garages of your local auto mechanic.  They were a morale boaster, a reminder of what waited for you at home whether you were in a foreign land or merely in the midst of a long work shift.  There are still many artists who do amazing work with mankind's most beautiful inspiration, ensuring that the art of the pin up girl will live on forever.  DC Collectibles has done a great job of turning a couple of their most iconic female characters into something straight out of the 1940's and '50's.  

    Supergirl, Wonder Woman, and Poison Ivy have been given the retro treatment in these statues that will be available this September.  Preorders are going on right now from wherever you buy your collectibles.  (Please and thank you: scroll down to the Entertainment Earth banner at the bottom of this page and buy from them to help support this site).  

New Tees from Jon-Paul Kaiser x Outsmart Originals

    You know what's nice about Outsmart Originals shirts?  They're subtle.  They're not covered in gold foil or all-over prints that make you look like a cast member of Jersey Shore.  And they don't say Tapout on them.  For the love of God if I have to see another skinny little kid who is most likely scared of squirrels wearing an MMA shirt I may just have to assault someone.

    Jon-Paul Kaiser returns to the ocean for inspiration with these latest designs.  And we know pirates are the second best savages on the open waters (vikings are of course first) and have lots of cool imagery to draw from.  Both of these shirts are available now for $20 each and come in men's and women's sizes.  Upgrade your closet by visiting http://www.outsmartoriginals.com/.

Mini Mao Resin Bust from Frank Kozik

    I miss the days when you would get the Sears catalogue in the mail, tear it open, and proceed to draw on all of the models.  You'd give em buck teeth or devil horns and they all deserved it.  Especially the underwear models because they looked a little too smug for a bunch of people not wearing pants.

    You know who else deserves it?  Chairman Mao.  The guy was a world class b-hole.  Years ago Frank Kozik added some Mickey Mouse ears to him and an icon was born.  I have a print of this dude hanging on my wall that says "The Bird is the Word" right under his grinning mug that may or may not mean something deeply political, but I like it because it makes me laugh.  People like him deserved to have their legacies mocked, so each time I smile at it maybe it knocks him down another peg.

    Now you can have your very own resin bust of the Chairman to create your own gallery of megalomaniacs.  He'll be available today at noon Pacific time for $40 only at www.frankkozik.net.  Only 50 were made and his stuff never lasts long so be quick on your computer if you want one.
