Jesse Hernandez x Hydro74 Death Serpent Kidrobot Exclusive and Signing



    This dude does not look like he's down to negotiate.  If you were out in the desert trying to find yourself before you went off to college and you see something like this you can kiss your dreams of academic achievement and frat parties goodbye.  This guy wants to take your soul and put it in a used jelly jar in his basement.  Then he'll probably decorate his house with your bones to impress the ladies.  Whose souls he will also take, but that's besides the point.  This is one bad looking dude.

   Jesse Hernandez and Kuso Vinyl created the original Death Serpent figure but evidently decided he didn't look nearly menacing enough.  So they enlisted the help of Hydro74 to sprinkle some extra evil on him and this is the result.  This ghost edition of the figure is limited to 150 pieces and an exclusive to Kidrobot.  If you're lucky enough to live in the San Francisco area you can hang out with Jesse and get this toy on Saturday when he does a signing at the Kidrobot store there.  All the info you need is in the picture.  I do warn you though, that the rest of your toys may feel slightly inadequate next to this guy.

The Outland Store 8th Anniversary Party Exclusives and Signings


    I'm continuing my anti-cute toys theme today with these two exclusives that were produce for The Outland Store's 8th Anniversary.  What's cute about a brain shaped like a skull?  Nothing.  In fact, it's pretty weird, but in the good way.  Not like the way people are weird on public transportation in rural areas.  When you live in a city, public transportation is a must and everyone uses it.  When you live out in the country, riding the bus is like attending a sideshow, or shopping at Wal-Mart.  You never know what kind of crazy things you will see or hear.  I have the same theory about people who ride bikes.  People riding bikes in the city are hipsters.  People riding bikes in the country are crack heads.  Just look next time you're out and about as my theory blossoms right before your eyes.  You're welcome.

    Back to skull brain thingys.  Emilio Garcia made 8 of these limited red ones just for this event and he will be there to sign 'em too.  Pretty nifty.  

    Jesse Hernandez x Kuso Vinyl also made this Shadow Edition Death Serpent to help Outland Celebrate their milestone.  Eighty of these angry looking bros exist and Jesse will also be there in person to sign them.  The event takes place June 16th in Amsterdam, which I hear is a fun place to go anyway.  I've never been, but I don't get out too much.

Minicel DIY at SDCC from Kuso Vinyl



    If I had the ability to draw I'd be dangerous!  I have no idea exactly why I would be dangerous, and actually I'd probably be just as mopey as I am now.  But I'm sure I could be dangerous if I wanted to.  I would draw all over toys and sell them for lots of money on the internet and then use that money to buy an alpaca farm.  Those glorified llamas are ridiculously expensive.

     If I could draw I would need lots of toys to draw on, and this would be a cool one to start with.  Kuso Vinyl is adding to the DIY pool of blank figures with this Minicel.  And he comes with an arsenal.  He's begging for you to turn him into a killing machine.  This guy wil be released at San Diego Comic Con for only $10 at the Kuso Vinyl booth #5642. I'm sure you'll be able to buy him afterwards too, so don't try and get one on eBay and feel dumb when you pay too much for it.
