Breaking Bad Custom Androids by Evilos at Designer Con

    Even though Breaking Bad ended about as perfectly as you can hope for, I still miss it.  Thankfully, the show had inspired legions of artists to add their creative spin to just about every aspect of it.  Like those now infamous barrels that contained the key ingredient to the entire meth empire.  Evilos has recreated them faithfully on the Android toy platform and will be selling them this weekend at his Designer Con booth.   You get the toy and a limited edition t-shirt all for $75, but only 5 sets exist so you'll have to be quick to snag one.  Check them out at booth #421.  

Brian Ewing's "Horror Business" Solo Show at Rivet Gallery

    I don't know much about Ohio.  I've only been there once when I was a wee little lad and all that I remember about it was going to the Cincinnati Zoo.  Other than that all I know is whatever I learned on The Drew Carey Show.  But I do know that Columbus has a pretty killer toy store/art gallery called Rivet and tomorrow they will be hosting a solo show by Brian Ewing.  You see that Bride of Frankenstein picture?  I have that hanging above my bed.  In fact, I have all of his monster prints, cause once I like something I just go completely overboard.  Luckily for me my wife is the same way and has mastered the art of playing Tetris with our walls and our art.  We're well on our way to covering ever bit of space, which we may or may not regret if we ever try to sell this house.  

    I know what you're thinking, you're thinking "Chris, this is a toy website and you have neglected to mention one word about anything made of plastic."  Don't worry your pretty little heads, cause I was just about to show you this:

    And there's your payoff.  It's an exclusive color way of his disturbingly amazing Shub Zeroth figure that he made with Meta-Crypt. I finally got to see one of these in person at New York Comic Con and they are so good you'll momentarily forget how to speak english.  You're gonna want this.  

    The opening reception is tomorrow, November 2nd, from 7-10pm.

Axeface Warchiefs from Monstrehero Release Today!!!!!

    I am all about telling you about stuff the day they release for some reason.  It's not intentional I assure you.  I kind of got messed up the other day when my internet was out, so my posts are all screwy and a day or so behind where I intended them to be.  But on the bright side it doesn't give you much time to contemplate whether or not you're gonna buy something, because if you don't act immediately you may miss out, so I'm helping you live more in the moment.  You probably should thank me or something.  

    You know what's great about these?  I would have gone ape for them as a kid.  They would have been caked in mud and there would have been sand grinding away in their joints from epic backyard adventures.  Now I'm feeling all nostalgic.  These guys are the creations of Monstrehero and they can belong to you when they go on sale today, November 1st, at noon Eastern time through http://monstrehero.bigcartel.com/.   

Happy Halloween from The Toy Viking

    Magnus the Conquer hopes you have a happy Halloween.  Stay away from Ouija boards and that creepy guy's house at the end of the street that has all the junk cars in the yard.  And let your parents check your candy before you eat any of it because they've let you live in their house rent free since you were born and it's the least you could do you little bum.  Just kidding, it's to keep you safe.  

    **Editors Note:  This cat's name is not actually Magnus.  It could be Snowball or Jigglypuff for all I know, cause we just Googled "cat in a viking costume" and this is what came up.  That doesn't make us bad people.  And we have no idea whose toes those are in the upper right corner, but kudos to them for being neatly manicured in preparation for this photo.  

Sam Heinous Lottery from Mutant Vinyl Hardcore Happening Now!!!!!

    Ok, so I realise that I'm not giving you the most heads up on either of the releases I posted about today, but in my defense I didn't have any internet access yesterday morning and wasn't able to update the site.  I know, I'm kind of a jerk, but I still love you all in ways that would get me arrested in most states.  

    It's Halloween and that means one thing:  ok, it actually means a lot of things, but to stay on topic it means the return of Sam Heinous from Mutant Vinyl Hardcore.  This figure makes an appearance one a year and today is your only chance to get him.  You have until 7am Eastern time on November 1st to enter your info into the lottery on http://www.mutantvinylhardcore.com/ for your chance to purchase one of these dudes.  Oh, and it looks like there's a chase version just chillin in the background there.  They'll let you know on Saturday if you're one of the lucky winners.  

All Hallow's Shub Zeroths from Metacrypt Release Today!!!!!!!

    All ye wicked souls, Shub Zeroth has returned to Earth to devour your flesh and make crafts with your bones.  He has a little stall down at the flea market, and does surprisingly well selling knick knacks made from the bits and pieces of evil humans.  But that is not the point, the point is that on this high holiday you can now own the very first Shub Zeroth ever to be offered on the internet.  You'll get either an unpainted black or an unpainted orange version.  You can't pick, the universe has already decided for you.  Each 9 inch figure will be $100 and will go on sale today, October 31st, at noon Pacific time at www.meta-crypt.com.

Terror Boys: Gohst Bat from Brandt Peters x Ferg

    Check out this bad little dude.  If you see someone that is the size of a grown man and dressed like this on Halloween you need to understand that he wants to kill you.  I've seen enough movies to know that anybody with a machete and a mask is bad news and he will take your bones to decorate his den of iniquity.  Don't become a home decor project by some psychotic Martha Stewart.  Mainly because I don't want to lose readers.  Do you know how tough it is to get people to check this site out when there are weirdo videos that ponder what noises a fox makes?  And it's a musical.  I can't compete with that.  This is a low budget affair my friend.  If I can't pull it out of my overly medicated head for free it's not happening.  So don't get murdered and lower my website hits or I'll be pissed.  

    Brandt Peters and Ferg have been killing it (pun intended) with their Terror Boy figures and this Gohst Bat dude continues that winning tradition.  He comes with two sets of arms, a machete, an ax, and a removable helmet.  You can get one this Halloween (yes, he actually goes on sale October 31st) at noon Pacific time by visiting http://store.projectsquadt.com./.
