New Domo Qees coming in 2012

    Toy2R head honcho Raymond Choy sent out this picture to his Facebook followers earlier this week.  It's a sneak peak of the new blind boxed Domo Qees.  While it's hard to make out a lot of the finer details, from what I can see the figures look to be as cool as they usually are.  They will release in April of 2012, just in time to take your tax refund money.  I'll put up better pictures when they are available.

Amazing Van Models from Dirty Donny

    When I was younger I dreamed about getting a ton of money and buying a Dodge Viper.  There was something about that car that drew me to it and while I was waiting to make my millions (still waiting mind you) I decided to put together a model of it.  I got the kit, the paint, and the glue and went to town on that sucker.  By went to town I mean I glued most of the parts to my hand and the finished product looked like it had been in a horrific accident involving mass casualties.  My days of building models seemed to be forever behind me until I saw this.  This is Vantasy from artist Dirty Donny, a fully customizable Chevy van straight outta the 70's.  You get multiple decals to change up the look however you want so yo can make the ultimate party wagon.  This is the first of 3 that he's doing for AMT and will be released in early 2012.  I just hope there's a sticker of a valkyre riding a polar bear as she descends into battle.  Or a nice wizard would be ok too.

FatCap Series 3 From Kidrobot

    January 26th marks the long awaited return of Kidrobot's FatCap toys.  14 designers have lent their interpretations to the series, including a a few that really surprised me.  Jon-Paul Kaiser (doing his first toy for Kidrobot), Julie West, and Kronk are welcome additions to the toy line that focuses heavily on street artists (hence the spray paint can design).  These will be blind boxed at $9.95 each and there are two different figures that come with every case purchase.  Those who buy a case in the United States will get a special edition toy by Sket-One, while everyone else in the world will receive one from Scribe.  This is a very cool series and features some of the best designs ever used on this platform.

Toy Soldier Android

    The holiday toys keep coming and this one is courtesy of Gary Ham.   These go on sale December 14th at 11am and 11pm Eastern time, so you have two chances to score one that day.  As with most toys these days, production issues pushed its release back a bit, so if you want to get one of these to display for Christmas you better order as soon as they go on sale.  Click here to get yours.

More Holiday Goodness from Maqet

    Maqet is bringing out all the big guns to celebrate Christmas.  In addition to the Heathrows from Frank Kozik and the create your own kits, they've added a ton of stuff to their site to help make your toy collection a bit more festive.  Scott Tolleson adds to figures to the mix, the candy cane inspired Bernie an the elf named Saint Bernard.  Both can be had for $35 each.

   If you dig teddy bears you have 4 different ones to choose from, all created by Shin and Nao. Three of them are sporting different shades of plaid and the fourth is transformed into a snowman.  They are $25 each.

   My favorite of the bunch is this tattooed version of Santa Clause courtesy of Yosiell Lorenzo.  Evidently Santa is released on parole every Christmas to do his thing and then has to immediately report back to serve his life sentence.  What did he do?  Well, for $25 you can ask him yourself and pray he doesn't shank you for irritating him.

New From Super7

    For most people Friday means the last day of the work week, the day that every once in awhile includes a man in a hockey mask killing college coeds, or that annoying Rebecca Black song that makes suicide look so attractive.  For Super7 it means new toys.  Check out their dual-headed collaboration with Secret Base, the ZombieFighter, who can be yours for $65.  Or maybe you're more into giant wart hog mutants, in which case you'll wanna plunk down some chips for the Paul Kaiju creation known as Partyball.  He's a tad cheaper at $35.  Or maybe you've want them both so you can get one step closer towards decorating your house with nothing but toys and Ikea furniture.  Realize your dreams today at noon Pacific time at www.super7store.com.

Boba Fett Bank from Diamond Select Toys

 
     I love my cats, but I don't trust them with my money.  Every time I look under the bed I find dollar bills in quantities that make me think a tiny stripper must live under there.  A very tiny stripper.  But just as soon as I'm about to call the evening news about my scandalous elf who is working her way through law school I also discover piles of cat toys that had long vanished.  My cats have been hoarding all my money!!!!!  Diamond Select Toys must have heard my plight for a secure place to stash my cash and created this.  Boba Fett will keep their furry little mits off my monies.

Don't believe me that my cats are robbing me blind?  This is what I caught on hidden camera:
