This toy is insaaaaaaaaaane. I had no idea that dragons had interests other than sitting on their piles of loot and terrorizing the odd village here and there. Who knew they were also social beings with a penchant for urban fashion? Kronk and Kidrobot have teamed up to show us how well rounded these mystical creatures are with this new release. His name is Dweezil and stands at an impressive 15 inches tall. Big figures also come with big price tags, and at $350 you might wanna start lifting the couch cushions now and hoping that buried beneath them is more than just the random potato chip. But I really don't think the price is unreasonable when you consider the amount of work that went into a figure this detailed and the fact that only 300 of each color exist in the world. On August 23rd you can make all of your other toys feel a little bit inadequate by bringing Dweezil home.

Necrolameicon from We Become Monsters
If you buy only one book of necromancy this year, this should be it. And while you cannot actually open this volume and gaze upon its dark secrets, rest assured that it is packed full of the sort of thing that would drive angry villagers to toast you over a bonfire.
Behold the Necrolameicon, clad in the plastic skin of undead toys, written in the blood of a virgin Barbie! For a mere $12 We Become Monsters will be happy to send you your own unholy copy of the black arts. And they'll even throw in a free slab figure, made of resin that has been cast out of the light and forced to dwell forever in the shadows. Get one before your evil little friend does and uses it to turn you into a newt.

Pearlescent Grey Garuru from Super7
Is this bro sleeping? Am I that boring that he figured it would be more fun to take a nap than to read what I have to say? I guess when you have devil horns and a necklace made of skulls you probably aren't concerned with other peoples opinions anymore. Touché little demon guy, touché.
This guy, who may or may not be paying attention, is named Garuru and he is sporting a brand new pearlescent grey paint job. Look at how thrilled he is about it. Add him to your toy collection today at noon Pacific time for a mere $35 from the nice folks at Super7. Just don't expect him to entertain you with anything more than his mere presence.

Resin Flame Mini Skulls from Matt Anderson
I was lucky enough to meet Matt Anderson this past weekend because he was a part of my little toy show in Philadelphia. He had some of these with him at the time and I can tell you that the picture doesn't do them justice. Each of these mini resin skulls are hand made and painted by Mr. Anderson himself and are $30 a piece. You can make your collection a little more dangerous by going to http://matta.storenvy.com/.
Punkstar Frenzies from Tokidoki
Ok, I like these guys a lot, especially the black metal dude looking all kvlt, but I do have a beef. These little guys, kinda like the Marvel ones tokidoki released last year, are zipper pulls. Not that that's the worst thing in the world, but I never know how to display them. If I use them as they are intended then the paint is eventually gonna rub off and I'll be upset. But if I don't use them then how do I show them off around the house? This is a conundrum that is eventually going to give me an ulcer. I just don't feel that I can win.

Super Alloy Batman Figure from Play Imaginative
Holy crap how amazing is this toy? And it was made by Play Imaginative, who are better known for their vinyl art toys. This Batman figure was designed by Jim Lee and that shiny finish is due to the fact that it is 85% die cast metal. There are 50 points of articulation (even the fingers move) and it stands a full foot high. Now to make you a tiny bit sad. If you don't live in Singapore or have a really good friend that will help you get one, you're going to have a hard time getting one of these. Right now you can preorder the figure from the Play Imaginative retail store or you can get one at the Singapore Toy, Game, and Comic Convention in September. Unfortunately those are you're only 2 options. If you have some vacation time and some extra money it could be a fun adventure.
Cherry Gumdrop by 64 Colors
Whatcha doin on Wednesday? If you're not going to be near a computer you should amend your plans so you can snag one of these adorable, wooden pups. These hand made doggies are from the minds of 64 Colors and you need one. But not if you have termites, cause no wood munching bugs could resist nibbling on this little guy. You have one day to get an exterminator to your place.
