Jesse Hernandez Calavera Dunny Release info

     I already told you that this was coming, but now I have the date and the price.  Jesse Hernandez and Kidrobot will be unleashing this 8 inch Calavera Dunny on December 15th.  There are only 1000 of them in the world and they cost $75.  Being that December 15th is also my birthday, I feel Kidrobot should send me one cause I like it and I managed not to die this year.  Believe me, staying alive was not as easy as I make it sound.  It took hard work, dedication, and the knowledge that my wife is too pretty to scoop the cat litter.



Wonder Woman Ame-Comi figure from DC Direct


   
   I love these figures from DC Direct.  They take classic female characters from the extensive history of DC Comics and give them the anime treatment.  You'll have to wait until March to get this new version of Wonder Woman, but I figured I'd tell you about it anyway so you have time to decide whether or not a life of crime might be beneficial to your toy collection.  It will set you back $70, so no one would fault you for going all Jesse James on a couple of banks.  Not Jesse James the womanizer mind you.  That would just be weird.

Kozik x Maqet Holiday Heathrows



   Not really known for doing toys that are warm and snuggly, Frank Kozik has decided to bring the cute with these Holiday edition Heathrows.  Made by the super geniuses at Maqet (I'm not even being sarcastic, it blows my mind how they make these things) each one stands 3 inches tall and you get both for only $50.  Not many set were made, so if you want physical evidence that Kozik has a softer side, you better act soon.

Occupy Cybertron with the Super Sucklord Dec. 7th




    Everyone's favorite contestant from Work of Art is not sitting around and crying about his elimination from the reality show.  Instead he's being insanely productive and continuing his quest for ultimate world domination.  He's coming loaded with his classic bootleg figures as well as his first attempt at an 8 inch Mego style toy.  He'll also have miniature protestors and jewelry made by his girlfriend.  There will be a DJ, free trading cards for anyone in costume, and enough craziness to give you stories to tell for years to come.  So if you're not lame and in the New York area, you need to spend your December 7th at End of the Century from 7pm-9pm.

Frankenmonkey Glow in the Dark version




    I have several of these figures that Atomic Monkey has released.  I have a brown one and a black one, and their little brains come out and they glow in the dark and freak my cats out at night.  Not content with just the brain shining brightly in the dark, now the whole dang monkey glows.  For $45 though, I think this is a figure that customizers rather than collectors will pick up.  My other monkeys have such great detail to them that is missing from this one and that kinda bums me out.  It will be interesting to see what a good artists can turn this blank canvas into.

Super7 Neapolitan Milton Set


    My wife likes ice cream a lot.  No matter how cold it is outside we always manage to make our way to the frozen food section and she always manages to con her way into some, which leaves very little room in the freezer for food that will actually keep you alive.  While not edible, I'm sure she would appreciate this brand new set of Miltons from Super7.  Available in Strawberry, Vanilla, and Chocolate, this Neapolitan bunch can be had individually for $25 per flavor or as  complete set for $70.  You can get your hands on them tomorrow, December 2nd, at noon Pacific time on their website.
