Sucklord's Rejects 2 Now Available

 

    It is really hard to wrap my head around this, but The Sucklord is not always perfect. Sounds crazy right? But every now and then toy parts don't come out just right, and rather than throw them out and have crazy folks digging through his garbage, he puts them together as crazy looking mash-up figures. His second series of Rejects is available now and for $85 you can get a random figure that you may or may not recognize from past releases. If you think you might want one I would go to http://www.suckadelic.com/ and get it now cause these won't last long.

Custom Toy of the Week: Trenton M.

    For the most part I like my toys to be pretty crazy looking.  I like weird designs and tons of colors and huge sculpts.  I'm an American and we're kinda bred to do things over the top.  But I also have a great appreciation for things that are done simply, because often times a minimal approach can have the best impact.  And I like cats.  This is Lily and she is the creation of Trenton M.  She is a 2 inch tall DIY cat that is cast in solid resin.  For $15 you can get one and paint it up however you like, or you can just leave it white, which is what I would do.  I love it anytime I see someone making their own toys and this one is a definite winner in my books.  Get one for yourself at http://trentonmstudios.bigcartel.com/.

Cherry Bomb from 3AA Available Today (for 3AA Members)

    Many toy companies offer membership packages that give you a bunch of free stuff and allow you special access to figure releases.  This new Cherry Bomb figure from 3AA is the most compelling reason ever to take advantage of such offers.  Go ahead and drool over this toy all you want, think about where you would put it on your shelf, imagine a girl that dresses like this would ever talk to you in real life, etc. etc. but it would be in vain.  Cause unless you are a 3AA member, you are not able to get this when it releases later on today.  Maybe you can get lucky and snag one on eBay for 3 times the price, but I somehow don't see anyone parting with this without you holding a gun to their head.  And I didn't just post this to torture you, because I am lacking said membership myself and rueing the day I passed on one.  Curse me and my attempts at fiscal responsibility!!!

Edward Scissorhands Pop! Vinyl from Funko

    I just saw this on the Facebook Pop! Vinyl Figures Fan Page a few minutes ago so I wanted to let you know about it ASAP.  Funko is constantly increasing its Pop! Vinyl family( kinda like those weird neighbors down the street who always seem to have more and more people living in their house.  Seriously, its like they live in a clown car) and the newest member of the clan is Edward Scissorhands.  The amount of detail in this figure is pretty cool, from the buckles on his outfit to the little scars on his face.  You can expect this guy in stores this September.  

Pocket Invisiboy and More from Super7

    I've been pretty good all month.  Been early to my new job every day.  Paid all the bills and kept the cat litter and an acceptable level of cleanliness.  I watched the Olympics and cheered for the underdogs.  So with all that good karma stacked in my favor, I think it may be time to reward myself for not being a complete sociopath.

    I love the Pocket Invisiboys from Super7.  I don't know what it is, but every time they release a new version I get really excited to add it to my growing hoard.  This guy will be available today starting at noon Pacific time for $25.  Get him by going to http://super7store.com/.

    Super7 is also opening up membership slots in its Secret Society club thingy.  All the details are in the picture right there, so I'll let you click on it and read them to save me from being redundant.  Basically it's kinda like Fight Club except you get toys instead of punches to the face.  It's better to have an existential crisis in this fashion rather than developing a split personality and making soap out of human fat you pillage from medical waste bins.

Blind Boxed Misfortune Cats by Ferg

    Just when I was about to complete my blind box 12 step program I see this picture pop up on Twitter.  I was so close to being free from my addiction and the shame it has brought my family and my bank account.  But these are too amazing to resist and I'll just buy a few,  just for old time's sake.  Who am I kidding.  As soon as these suckers are released I'll be so far off the wagon I won't even be able to see it anymore.

    But can you blame me?  These Misfortune Cats from Ferg have always been a favorite of mine and now they're gonna be shrunken down in an array of colors.  I need every single one of them.  Resistance is truly futile.  I don't know much more than that, but when I get more news I'll let you know so you can hit blind box rock bottom with me.

Companion: Resting Place by Kaws

    You wanna know what the down payment on a new car looks like in toy form? Well, now you know, cause while I don't know much about this figure I can guarantee you it won't be bargain priced. And why should it, because Kaws knows he can get away with charging whatever he wants for these things and people will buy them up like they dispensed gold doubloons from their butts. I'm pretty sure that no matter what the underside of this dude looks like, it does not have those capabilities.

    I'll give a tad bit of credit where it is due and applaud him for not just taking a popular character and putting X's where it's eyes should be and calling it good (what? that already happened? a lot you say? dang.). And I do like blood and guts, so if you're gonna pry my mortgage money out of my hand it's a fair way to do it. Or with a taxidermied polar bear. I seriously have a great place in my house for it and I think it would blow my cat's minds. What were we talking about?
