Judge Death Gets the 3A Treatment

    You know that panicked feeling you get when you're speeding down the road with not a care in the world and all of a sudden you pass a police car hiding in the woods?  And you're looking in your rearview mirror, alternating between curses and prayers and just hoping that you don't see him pull his car onto the road and if he does trying to think quickly about whether there's a side street you can duck down without being seen and therefore avoiding a ticket whose fine could be utilized for something way more important.  Now imagine if it was this guy that pulls you over.

    I'm not cracking any donut shop jokes within earshot of Judge Death.  You can just tell he's never let anyone off with a warning.  This insanely detailed 1/12 scale figure is courtesy of the folks at 3A and will be available for preorder January 14th at 9am Hong Kong time for $60.  If you order from http://www.bambalandstore.com/ you also get free shipping world wide.  

Squatting Dog Sofubi Kickstarter

    Ummmmmm.  You would think that I would have a field day writing about a pooping dog toy, but I'm seriously having some problems with this one.  Maybe this is just too easy, and being handed such a gift has created a huge blockage in my mind.  It's like I need a mental laxative to get the ideas flowing again.  Okay, we have a dog, and he's desperately trying to dot your yard with little brown land mines, and it's captured in Japanese vinyl for all of eternity.  I'm kinda wondering what's on his mind as he performs the most humiliating of acts for all to see.  I bet he's laughing on the inside as he watches his owner cover his hand in an old shopping bag, ready to retrieve the mess.  The human/dog relationship is really one sided when you think about it.  Any relationship that requires you to handle turds is kind of abusive.

    Right now there's a campaign on Kickstarter to help fund these little plastic poopers and get em into production and on your shelf.  Yeah, it's different,but you have to admit that dropping the old deuce is and always was hilarious, so for pure comedic factor alone buying one is kinda worth it.  And imagine if you get someone one as a present.  Their reaction could be Youtube gold.  Help move these further down the pipeline and into reality by supporting their campaign here.  

Tenacious Toozie Scloozie Shagghoulie from We Become Monsters

    This time of year I wish we had shag carpeting covering every square inch of our house.  Hardwood floors are nice to look at, but when it's freezing out I feel like I'm trekking barefoot over a glacier.  The struggle is real my friends.

    I would settle for an entire suit made out of shag carpeting, baring in mind that it is coated on the inside with luxurious fleece.  That would be the height of warmth and comfort and still less stupid looking than Ugg Boots.  Look how happy this Shag Ghoulie from We Become Monsters is.  Dude is completely toasty and feeling fuzzy in all the right places.  He's part of Super a Series Sunday from Tenacious Toys and will go on sale...wait for it...this SUNDAY, January 11, at 7pm eastern time.  Limits to only 10 pieces at $100 each, you can only get one from http://www.tenacioustoys.com

Nozzel S001.50 Squadt from Ferg

    I have some ridiculous dreams and my wife can't wait for me to relay the nonsense that kept my brain entertained while I'm asleep.  Most of the time I have bits and pieces that I remember that don't really add up to a complete narrative, but every now and then I have something pretty memorable worth sharing.  Like the dream I had once where some group of people was trying to invade a farmhouse we were living in and I somehow had the ability to bring all of my toys to life to fight and defend us.  I ran around the house, frantically opening packages of Star Wars figures and vehicles, standing them up on the floor and watching them as they went off into battle.  Don't lie, you wish that could happen in real life.

    The moral of the story is that you need to have toys capable of armed combat in case your house is ever assaulted by an unknown group.  Consider your domicile safe if your a Squadt collector, cause these dudes are armed to the teeth and ready to take on all comers.  Now they've gone mini; at only 3.5 inches tall these little dudes are perfect for sneaking behind enemy lines and wreaking their own special brand of havoc.  If you wanna add one of these little guys from Ferg to your collection, you'll have 24 hours to do so starting this Monday, January 12, at noon central time.  These are only available at http://store.projectsquadt.com for $40 each.  

Silver Demeru-Kun from Bounty Hunter

    Ooooooooh shiny. Everyone knows the craziest toys come from Japan, like this classic Demeru-Kun from Bounty Hunter. He's kind of a giant half skeleton monkey with a brain for a head and hands that look like they'd love to wrap their fingers around your neck. I can't explain it, but I like it. This sucker is going on sale this Saturday, January 10th for international customers through http://bounty-hunter-intl.com.

Stock Up Now During K. Olin Tribu's Winter Sale

    I know how it is.  You want something desperately but you can't bring yourself to spend the money. I just spent $600 getting my wife's car repaired and that gave me an ulcer and this twitching under my right eye that hasn't stopped.  Even if I didn't just give a mechanic all my money I still have a hard time buying stuff for myself.  Unless it's on sale.  I love a good sale, and there's no better feeling than getting something you've been longing for AND getting it cheaper than you thought you would.  Right now K. Olin Tribu is running a sale on everything they make, from prints to those amazing porcelain sculptures we would all die to own.  They've even made it easy for you by becoming one of my site's newest sponsors and having a handy button over there on the right hand side for you  --------->.  Just click it and buy everything you want and don't forget those coupon codes posted above to save you some cash.  

"Feminamorphe" Opens This Saturday at Toy Art Gallery

    Pretend I'm saying this in a smooth, Billy Dee Williams voice: "This Saturday, it's all about the laaaaaaaaaaadies."  I'll admit it, that was kinda lame, but it's also true because Toy Art Gallery is set to open it's latest show "Feminamorphe" featuring some of the best female talent in the toy/art world right now.  New work from Candie Bolton, Uamou, Teresa Chiba, Tasha Zimich, Okokume, and Helen Vine will be on display and available for purchase.  The show opens this Saturday from 7-10pm and will be on display through the end of the month.
