Introducing Creo Design



    I'd love to take credit and say that I did a massive amount of work in discovering the folks at Creo Design, but they in fact found me.  What makes that even better is that the toys they are producing are really cool and different from what I'm used to.  Check out guy above named Lawhill.  He was designed by Akinori Oishi and is based on a place in Scotland that the artist had never actually seen before.  For you history buffs you can read a little about it here.  Creating a character based on the design of a physical place is not something I've seen before and possibly why I find this guy so fascinating.  Check out their store if you're as smitten with it as I am.



   Next year you'll also be able to purchase Chebaka from Russian artist Serg Basargin.  Very minimal design wise, yet it still grabs your attention and leads to many possibilities in the realm of customization.  Hopefully they make a blank one, or create an artist's series, that will allow for different interpretations.

Toy2R Black Friday Sale Starts Now!

    25% off of everything in stock at www.toy2rusa.com. That pretty much speaks for itself.  And you don't have to wait until Friday, so it would be in your best interest to get moving and buy some stuff already.

Super7 Black Friday Release and Sale



    This is how I look when I think about having to deal with holiday shoppers.  Everyone acts like they've lost whatever little sense they were born with and don't care what they have to do or who they have to destroy to get their kids something stupid that they'll lose interest in within the week.  But thanks to the beauty of the internet, I never have to leave my house again to buy gifts for those that I love (or mainly just me).  Check out this new Blackest Fridays Stomp from the fine folks at Super7.  This bad boy is $60 and worth every penny just for the fact that you don't have to go to the mall to get him.

   
    Super7 will also be running a pretty cool sale starting Black Friday and lasting the whole weekend.  I'm eyeballing a few things right now and just waiting to see what goes on sale before I make my move.   It's all about patience.  Unfortunately my lack of patience is really starting to hurt right now.    

K. Olin tribu Black Friday Sale




    K. Olin tribu make some of the most amazing toys you've ever seen.  That's because they take figures from the vinyl world and remake them in porcelain.  The results are stunning and it really transforms them into pure works of art that even the the biggest art snob can appreciate.  That being said, they are not cheap, but to celebrate Black Friday you can get 20% off one of these amazing pieces.  Check out some of their figures below and then get your credit card ready to do some shopping.

                                      

Kozik x Kidrobot Christmas Labbit Plush



    When I think of Christmas I think of rabbits with mustaches.  For a long time I was told I was "crazy", that I was "maladjusted".  Well now who's laughing (other than the therapists who made a lot of money off of me and my psychosis)?  Kozik and Kidrobot want you to snuggle up with this dapper bunny for the low low price of $15.95 this holiday season.  He's available now and unlike a real rabbit, he won't chew your electrical cords or drop little brown love nuggets all over the place.
