How cool is this little sucker? This is the Red Star Drone by DrilOne. These Soviet dudes stand 4 and 1/2 inches tall and will be going on sale December 7th at Stranger Factory in Albuquerque, New Mexico as part of their Circus Annual group exhibit. If they don't sell out the remainder will be put online for the rest of us that are not lucky enough to be in attendance. This is my favorite thing he's ever made, so I may have to make an effort to try and snag one. Anyone love me in New Mexico?

Star Trek Flash Drives from Mimobot
I could make the obvious joke about how you can now store your data in Data and wait while the Earth collapses under the weight of hearty nerd laughter, but I won't. Instead I will skip said hilarious observation to tell you about theses Star Trek flash drives made by Mimobot. There's Captain's Kirk and Picard, Spock, and the aforementioned Data. If you put text files on the Spock Mimobot and there are misspellings do you think he corrects them for you? He seems like the type to do that.
Of course Mimobots always come preloaded with awesome content, like avatars and wallpapers and plans to build your own full-size Enterprise (that may or may not be true). Go and get 'em.

One Black Friday Post to Rule Them All
There's a lot of releases for black Friday that don't involve standing in line at Best Buy for hours just to have some housewife punch you in the face for the last plasma tv. You can stay at home, where it's warm and hopefully less violent, and shop from the comfort of your computer. Here's the rundown. Take notes.
Frank Kozik will be unleashing his Smoke version of Kim Jong Il in resin. These little jerks will run you $35 each and only 30 of them exist. Be quick with your computer, cause these will go fast as he routinely breaks the Guinness World Record for fastest internet toy sales. At least he would if they kept track of that sort of thing and stopped messing around with the length of people's fingernails.
MAD is well versed in the resin game himself and will be releasing 13 of his handmade Modern Hero figures in all black. They even come lovingly packaged in a wooden display case that has been etched with lasers! I don't have any lasers at home because my wife doesn't trust me with such things and figures I will try to build a Death Star. These will cost $300.
I'm gonna go ahead and warm you. If you buy this necklace you will grow a beard, learn black magic, and probably just get yourself into some general all-around shenanigans. That being said, YOU REALLY NEED TO BUY THIS. This Lurker necklace from Skinner is the perfect accessory to any mugshot/photo with the mall Santa. They'll be on super sale for only $35 each.
I'll admit it, I'm a video game nerd. I have spent countless hours of my life living vicariously through pixelated characters doing things I never could in real life. Well, some of it I could I suppose, but I don't think I'd have a great time dealing with the consequences. That's where people like Nathan Drake come in. He has been captured here in all his plastic glory by Erick Scarecrow. Only 4 of these exist in this great big world and if you buy one you're entered to win a special all white version that was never made for sale.
He'll also have 15 pieces of the Marina figure you see below.

Junko Mizuno x Kidrobot Black
If one were to build an altar to all things plastic, this figure would not suck as the center piece. Kidrobot Black and Junko Mizuno have gotten together to make this insane toy. It's called Kuro Megami which loosely translates to "big hunk of expensive plastic." Standing (or sitting I suppose) at 11 inches tall, only 200 of theses were produced and will run you $400 a pop. Let me know if you get one so I can rob you. Just kidding, I meant so I can offer to do lawn work.
Argonaut Resins Monster Magnets Series 2
You know what makes me mad? How much your fridge sucks. Got ahead, go and look at it and be sad. You're putting your kid's good report card up there with magnets from the Chinese food place down the street. It's a sad way to show off their academic achievements. Get some cool magnets from Argonaut Resins and put their weird stick figure portraits of you up there in style!
This is series 2 of their popular Monster Magnets and they're ready to add some flare to your fridge. For $40 you get a set of 6 that you can paint or leave just as they are. If you have a bit of extra cash and no artistic ability, you can get this artist series painted by Adam Pratt for $99.
