Aurora Mixed Glow Greasebat by Jeffrey Lamm x Monster Worship



     With all the focus on his new Spike Wad figure you may have thought Jeffrey Lamm had forgotten all about the mighty Greasebat.  But you would have been wrong because how else is there a new one coming out?  This is the Aurora Mixed Glow edition, based on the old Aurora model kits that had interchangeable parts that lit up in the dark.  You can get yourself this eco friendly night light for $75 tomorrow,  March 23rd from the Monster Worship store.  

Walking Dead Minimates Available for Preorder



    Hopefully by now you've seen the season finale of The Walking Dead.  If you haven't don't worry, I promise I won't ruin the surprise for you.  But now since you're thinking about zombies it would be the perfect time to preorder your set of Walking Dead Minimates.  You can either get Rick with a zombie, Dale with a zombie, or two zombies together.  Or just get them all and stop being a baby about it.  I'm kinda shocked that Dale was included in the first wave of figures, as we all know Daryl is the best character on the show.  I think they should do a spinoff series called Daryl Dixon: Biggest Bad Ass of the Zombie Apocalypse.  It will be like the Dukes of Hazard meets Mad Max, with maybe a touch of the Cosby Show.  You know, for the kids.

Ajee in Porcelain from K. Olin Tribu



    I raved a ton about this figure when it was originally released in vinyl late last year.  It's called Kosplay and it is the design of french artist Ajee.   And just when you thought it couldn't get any better the folks at K. Olin Tribu have decided to make a porcelain edition.  Here are a bunch of pics of what it will look like.  No idea on price or release date yet, but if you want one I would save my money because it won't be cheap, but it will be worth it.  




Glossy Mega Munnys from Kidrobot



I am loving these. I know the Munny platform is generally meant to be customized but I don't think I could bring myself to change these one bit. The glossy finish makes enough of a statement as it is, and as big as they are there is no way they wouldn't be the center of any room or collection. I think they'd also make a pretty killer dry erase board. Imagine writing down your grocery list or a maybe us it next to the phone to take messages on for the folks you live with.

Now the important stuff. These will be available April 12th for $250. From the folks at Kidrobot. Yeah, they're not cheap, but they're stylish and people will be impressed with your good taste. How many times will that realistically happen in your lifetime?

Triclops x Unbox Industries Present PeeNut



    When I was a wee lad there was nothing better than getting that little plastic garbage can filled with M.U.S.C.L.E. figures from the toy store and having epic wrestling matches until I passed out. Or the dog chewed the arms off and I had to save for another batch. Now Triclops and Unbox Industries are allowing me to relive those memories with PeeNut, the first Mega B.A.S.T.A.R.D. figure. All three colors of this angry legume will be available the first week of April for $45 each. Oh, and they're limited to 200 pieces. Luckily my cats don't seem to have a taste for my toys, cause I'm feeling the need for an old school WWF throwdown!

Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes




    OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!

Secret Base x Toy Art Gallery Spongebob X-Ray


    Ever wondered what was going on inside Spongebob?  No, me neither, because a real sponge has absolutely nothing happening in its innards.  Just little holes everywhere that are good for little more than scrubbing your bathtub (which is filthy by the way).  But I have been proven wrong by the combined efforts of Secret Base and Toy Art Gallery who present this Spongebob X-Ray figure.  Standing at 5 inches tall, this pants wearing kitchen tool is exposing himself for the world to see that there is more to him than previously thought by science.  He has a skeleton!!!!  I guess that makes sense since he does have teeth and whatnot, but still I am shocked by this revelation.

    You can own this figure and a cool t-shirt for $185 right now by checking out: http://www.toyartgallery.com/.
