Okay, I'll admit it. I've never played Minecraft. I know that you build things, and monsters try to make you their love slaves or something. But that's beside the point. Check out this Creeper from the game!!!!! It was designed by world renowned artist MAD and is produced by Jinx, who are well know for their gamer t-shirts. This guy stands 6 inches tall and comes with a little diamond block accessory. He's $30 and you can order him by clicking here. A pixelated limited edition will also be released in the near future, so get this one now so you can have the set of them.

Kozik x Kidrobot Glossy Labbits
Oooooooooh shiny bunnies! On January 12th get what you really wanted for Christmas buy returning all those ugly sweaters and buying glossy Labbits from Kozik and Kidrobot. These things are 10 inches of lung cancer inducing cuteness and will cost you $60 each. I'm interested to see how they look in person before I decide whether I need one or not. Ok, scratch that, I obviously need them all. I don't know why I even bother trying to behave myself with money.
On a side note, Mr. Frank Kozik has declared his love for fruitcake on his Facebook page, even going as far to post an address where you can send him all of your unwanted bricks of yuck. I would imagine he doesn't want the slice left over from your Christmas dinner, but if it's still sealed and you like to mail things, here's an easy way to get rid of the ungodly dessert without having to throw it in the trash. Who knows, maybe he'll send you back some beef jerky.

Sucklord x Work of Art Judges
The Work of Art season finale aired last night, and while I was happy that Kymia won, I was sad that Sucklord was only there as a spectator. But let's be real, he's creative enough to get more out of the show than anyone else involved and this is the proof of that. Having already captured his own likeness and that of Bravo executive Andy Cohen, Sucklord has now moved on to the very judges responsible for sending him home from the show. First up is Jerry Saltz, who really is an easy guy to dislike. I would have to think he falls into the super-villain category, mainly because he's bald (like Lex Luthor) and he wears a suit. Oh, and he told Sucklord to drop the Star Wars references, which is akin to nerd blasphemy. Need further proof of his marriage to the dark side? He also comes in a glow-in-the-dark version:
He probably got whatever power it is that makes you glow when he made his deal with Satan. Just sayin.
You can also get Mr. Saltz in the three pack of people from the show that also includes the always bizarrely attired China Chow and the greatest Swiss man alive Simone DePury. Simone went on a rant about becoming slaves to chickens last night which really should have inspired Young's art show. Maybe we can get some chicken slave figures from Suckadelic? On a side not, China Chow is wearing the spray painted dress that was a definite homage to Alexander McQueen (and you thought I only knew about toys) and also the dress that she wore when Sucklord was eliminated from the show. What does it all mean? Probably nothing, I just wanted to show you how much I actually pay attention to all of the television I watch, which could be interpreted as a sad thing.

Carbon Fiber 400% Bearbrick
You see that Bearbrick there? It's kinda big, really expensive, and it's not made of plastic. It's made of carbon fiber! Ok, I'll admit, I had to take a little refresher course on what exactly carbon fiber was and why I should be excited about it. Basically it's the same stuff they use to make tennis rackets, parts of car bodies, and tons of other sports related things like fishing rods. It's flexible, lightweight, and strong. But it won't stop a bullet, which really disappointed me. That material is called Kevlar and I now demand that they make a toy out of it so I can take to the gun range and try to blow a hole in. So Medicom, if you're reading this, your new mission has just been handed to you. Bullet proof a toy and let me shoot it. With a gun. While I video tape it.
Super7 x Lego????
So I didn't even know that I had this dream, but evidently it is one step closer to being a very real reality, possibly. This picture was found on Super7's blog and depicts some of their iconic characters standing behind Lego representations of themselves. This is something they have been working on with a friend of theirs from Lego and it is, needless to say, amazing. I love Super7 and I love Lego probably more than I should, so to see the two combined gave me a toy induced seizure. Once I recovered I looked at more pics of this collaboration, including this one of what they "might" look like all packaged together.
This is all the info they would divulge on the subject, but then said that 2012 should be an interesting year. Go ahead and bill me now.
