The Joker 2.0 from Hot Toys



    Well I decided this would be a fitting thing to write about since the new Lego Batman game has turned me into a television worshiping hermit that could really use a long shower.  Not that you needed to know that last part, but it gives you an idea of the addictive properties of this game.  I need rehab.

    This is the Joker 2.0 figure from Hot Toys.  As you can see from the picture below he comes with 2 different heads, an assortment of hands, guns, and the interview room table from the film.  This creepy clown is available for preorder at a ton of different places right now and will set you back $274.  It should be available sometime around the end of the year.  Now if he could only help me find all the mini kit pieces from the game.

Custom Toy of the Week: Rsin



    Anyone who is remotely into custom toys knows the name Rsin.  This guy has been transforming regular toys into sick works of art for years.  This is one of his latest pieces and will be available at Dragatomi's booth at San Diego Comic Con.  My favorite part of this toy is the plague mask, which is a great addition to what was an already amazing toy.  If you can't make it out to California next month you'll have another chance to see Rsin's work up close as he will be one of the artist's participating in a custom show I put together with Jinxed in Philadelphia.  The show will be August 4th and will feature some great talent from the toy world and beyond.  I'll let you know more in the coming days.

Jon-Paul Kaiser x Toy2r Mini Qee



    Oooooooooh.  Ok, I thought I was in love with the first panda Qee that Jon-Paul Kaiser made, but now I know I'm totally obsessed with this one.  I mean, this is full blown, "gonna stalk this toy in the bushes and write love poems about how happy I could make it" obsessed.  It's so cool!!!!!!!!  Toy2r has outdone themselves yet again with this guy.  He'll be available in August for $28 and is ready to scare away all the evil spirits in your home.  Or invite them in, it's really hard to say with something that merely has a skull for a head.  

PocketWookie x Toy2r Mini Qee



    This is Tobacco Pete.  If his wicked left doesn't get you the fabulousness of his mustache will.  He hails from a time when men were men and bears were merely things you wrestled in the woods for sport.  He is a Mini Qee designed by PocketWookie and produced by Toy2r.  You can add him to your collection in August for a mere $28.  He will then proceed to punch you in the face and steal your woman.  You brought this on yourself.

Adventure Time x Mimobot Flash Drives



    I saw this show once and it freaked me out a little bit. I imagine this is what it would be like to go to Disney World with Salvador Dali while doing acid. Or maybe this is what it's like when hockey players have had their 10th concussion. That being said, I don't know why I haven't watched more of this show, because I just made it sound delightful.

    Remember how I told you a few days ago that Mimobot has lost their minds and is releasing a ton of new products? Well ta-da cause here's some more neat stuff from the kings and queens of flash drives. Adventure Time is the latest to get the Mimo treatment and you know you want them all. You can preorder Finn, Jake, and Princess Bubblegum right now, but you'll have to go to San Diego Comic Con to get Fiona. Time to find a toy mule me thinks.



DIY and Glow In The Dark Fonzo from Gary Ham x Freak Store



    Gary Ham and Freak Store aren't content to rest with a mere two versions of their Fonzo figure. Now they want to see how you would interpret their cute little dog with this DIY version. Paint him, glue him, put him in the microwave ( ok, don't do that cause I can't afford a lawsuit) so whatever it is you need to do to make him awesome.

    Those of you attending San Diego Comic Con will have a chance to pick up one of these uber rare glow in the dark Fonzos. Limited to only 100 pieces, this pup will be available from Gary Ham himself at his booth.
