Peter Kato x Giant Robot San Diego Comic Con Exclusives



    My friend Peter Kato and I are stuck in the same boat, and that boat is not making its way to San Diego Comic Con. But that doesn't mean he won't be well represented, because he is sending a ton of new stuff that will be available at the Giant Robot booth #1729. Check out those sea foam green Turtle Tetsujin figures. Each one has the Giant Robot logo on the chest and there will only be 20 of them available for $20 per figure.



    Peter will also have Tasty Rainbow editions of his other figures available for purchase. Each one will be $10 and bagged with a header card.

Danny Chan x Toy2r Killer Cat Mini Qee for Taipei Toy Festival



     OOoooooooh I like this.  I have the little 2 and 1/2 inch version of this guy from waaaaaaay back and would loooooove to add this to my collection.  This is Danny Chan's Killer Cat Mini Qee from Toy2r and I need one.  The main problem I have is that there is only 100 of these out there and they are going to be released this week at the Taipei Toy Festival in Taiwan.  I'm no geographical scholar, but I'm pretty sure it's not just off the New Jersey Turnpike.  That, my friends, is what eBay is for.

New Girls of Batman Statues from DC Collectibles



    October is the best time of year for me.  I get to go to New York Comic Con and ruin any chances I'll ever have of saving my money.  The weather gets cooler, which seems to make people a bit nicer because let's face it, we're all a bit cranky when we're hot.  And now I can look forward to two new releases featuring a couple of the girls from Batman courtesy of DC Collectibles.

    Harley Quinn gets the anime treatment once again in this new Ame-Comi figure.  I wasn't sure how I felt about this one at first because they really changed up he look for this figure.  But the more I look at it, the more I can appreciate what they did.  She looks like the sadistic first act of some crazed Japanese circus where very bad things will happen to you.  I'm kinda ok with that.  She'll be available October 17th for $69.95



    Last but not least we have everyone's favorite cat burglar...Cat Woman!!!!  She is decked out in her costume from the New 52 series and stands nearly 11 inches tall.  This statue can be yours on October 24th for $99.95

CrappyCat x Kuso Vinyl SDCC Exclusive




    "You got something to say? Yeah, you thought you had something to say till you saw the size of my peace maker".

     Nothing makes me happier that the thought of a cat with a bad attitude and and the weaponry to match. "Seafood Delight again for dinner? I think I'll be having some of your pot roast actually". This is the Driver Red edition of Van Beater's popular CrappyCat. He is limited to only 200 pieces and is an exclusive for Kuso Vinyl at San Diego Comic Con. And he only costs $10, which is probably what a soda at the convention goes for. Plus you can meet Van Beater and have him sign your butt. Ok, you probably shouldn't ask for that cause it may get you tossed out.



Shrympee SDCC Exclusive from 3DRetro




    That is a good size shrimp that lady is holding. You don't get one's like that at the casino buffet that's for sure. They feed you those skinny little sick ones that didn't make the cut at Red Lobster. I hate the casinos.

    But I love Shrympee!! I mean, check that dude out, totally undaunted by the fact that some hot model is getting ready to devour him. This is a special Ghost edition exclusively for sale by 3DRetro at San Diego Comic Con. Only 100 of them exist and David Chung will be there to sign them for everyone that plucks down $14.95 for one. Only $14.95? This may be the best deal you'll find in all of California.

Jaina Solo ARTFX Bishoujo Statue from Kotobukiya




     Oh hey there. I've never really gotten into the expanded universe of Star Wars, but I'm thinking maybe there are important things I've been missing. Check out Jaina Solo, who is the offspring of Han Solo and Princess Leia. This is the first ARTFX Bishoujo statue from Kotobukiya that has featured a Star Wars character and I'm guessing it won't be the last. Pretty up your desk for $65 this January.

DKE Exclusives for San Diego Comic Con



    I'm actually nervous to make this post because I know as soon as I do, DKE will announce more exclusives for San Diego Comic Con and I'll feel dumb.  But I honestly couldn't wait any longer after I saw that gem pictured above.  That is the green colorway of the David Flores Deathead figure as featured on Hellfire Canyon Club Merch.  My Lord that thing is amazing.  This version is limited to 50 pieces and will be $100 each.  I'd smack your grandma for one of these.




     On the lighter and fluffier side of things, you could pick up these flocked Treeson figures from Crazy Label and Bubi Au Yeung.  For $40 they'll let you snuggle one and even take it home with you.  


    OMG more CrappyCat figures!!!!!!! These are the CrapZombies by Van Beater and you could own this dynamic duo for only $20.  I've got $5 that says you wake up one night with them nibbling on your pinky toes.  Just sayin.  


    You want some cool, hand made, resin figures?  Yeah, well I guess Healeymade will be happy to hook you up with one of these guys for $80.  Get your wrassle on!!!!

     Birds are fascinating creatures.  Did you know that crows can remember people's face for up to two years?  If you piss one off I wouldn't bother washing my car, cause you're just asking for retribution.  These guys were hand painted by Mr. Clement and can be yours for the tidy sum of $45. 



     Nerds and bbq enthusiasts, you are both represented here in this exclusive Android set from Andrew Bell.  That guy with the grill seems to be covered in an abundance of blood, so I can't imagine what on earth he is cooking.  Bring them $25 and a wet nap stat!


     Still hungry for handmade?  Then pick up this little dead bro from Mike Egan.  For $45 he promises to ward off the bad juju.

     I'm out of breath.  I have finally reached the end and it is a doozy.  This hunk of gold awesomeness is by Erick Scarecrow and he costs $140.  Oh, and there's only 18 of them available.  18!!!!!!!!!!!  That's less than the amount of doctors that have worked on Joan River's face!!!!!
