New Stuff from Dudebox

    Dudebox has had a pretty amazing first year.  They've released a ton of product, had the biggest booth at New York Comic Con, and are exposing the toy world to even more artists that we may have otherwise never discovered.  So how do you wrap up such a big outing?  Well, you release even more toys.  

     The guy you see above was created by 2much.  He stand nearly 8 inches tall and is limited to only 300 pieces.  Thats a pretty big toy and it will only set you back $35 to add him to your collection.  Someone can actually make affordable, large scale vinyl toys?  It's like wizardry or something.  

    But why stop there?  They also decided to release another set of mini figures as well featuring the artistic talents of Attaboy, Dust, and more.  These guys are blind boxed and sell for $9.95 each.

Molten Lava and Sewer Sludge Dunnys from OsirisOrion

    If you were to have these guys infest your home the only thing you could do is burn it down.  Just look at em.  They want to eat you.  You don't get teeth like that from being a vegan.

    These are the Molten Lava and Sewer Sludge Dunnys from OsirisOrion.  These frightening little things are available for preorder until December 7th for $60 each or a set for $100.  Only 5 of each will be sold individually and 5 sets will be made available.  If you like scary critters this is the deal for you!  Hurry, operators are standing by at http://osirisorion.storenvy.com/.

Apocalypse Calaverita Skull by The Beast Brothers

    Well, we've almost reached the end my friends.  If that whole Mayan calendar is correct we only have a few weeks left to go before hellfire and brimstone overtake the Earth and turn the lights on human existence.  Or if you're reasonable you already know its a bunch of crap and haven't yet quite your job in a effort to fit everything in from your bucket list.  Either way, buying one of these won't be something you'll regret now or in your impending after life.  

    This Apocalypse Calaverita from The Beast Brothers is limited to only 21 hand painted pieces and go on sale this Friday, December 7th, at 1pm eastern time.  

    If you don't get lucky enough to snag one of those you could always pick up the sofubi version for a mere $60.  Whatever you decide to do you can get them at http://thebeastbrothers.storenvy.com/.

Seven of Nine Femme Fatales Statue from Diamond Select

    Ok, so this figure of Star Trek's Seven of Nine doesn't come out until the summer, but I thought knowing of it's impending release may help some of you brave the cold like good little troopers.

    You don't have to kid yourself any longer, we know this is the only reason anyone watched Voyager.  She was the hottest robot on tv since that maid from The Jetsons, and now you can set up a shrine to her in your very own home courtesy of the folks at Diamond Select Toys.  Seems like all of the websites offering preorders have their prices set around the $40 mark, but you have plenty of time to squirrel away your lunch money.  

Silver Gipper Bust by Frank Kozik

    Yeah, I post a lot of things that Frank Kozik makes.  And it's not just because he's promised me a play date with Edward Goralsky either.  It's because he makes stuff that I want to own.  That's pretty much the whole premise of this website, it's a giant wish list that I add snarky commentary to and hope that someone will take the hint and buy me all of it.  So far I have failed at everything but the commentary.  

    This is the silver version of his Gipper bust.  This Ronnie Raygun bust stands 16 inches tall and is limited to only 50 pieces in the entire world.  It's a great way to start your own presidential memorial library/litter box room.  They're $200 a pop and only available from the Kozik family themselves at http://www.frankkozik.net/.

Custom Toy of the Week: Josh Mayhem

    Josh Mayhem never fails to amaze me with his Dunny/Gundam mash ups.  For one,  I'm impressed that he even came up with this.  And for two, I'm really impressed by how well he combines the toys to create something mind blowing and original.  I saw some of these in person at New York Comic Con and the pictures never capture how cool they really are.  If you want one for yourself,  Mr. Mayhem is taking commissions through his website http://joshmayhem.com/.

Sergio Mancini x Outsmart Originals T-Shirts

     The best days are when you neglect to put a shirt on and you convince your cats to let you hold them like babies.  There ain't nothing wrong with a shirtless man cuddling his little feline friends.  Nothing at all.  It's as manly as growing a beard or watching professional wrestling and if you don't think so then you're obviously a woman.

    I don't always wear shirts, but when I do I prefer them to be from Outsmart Originals.  Why you ask?  Because they are designed by toy artists and I have a bit of a toy obsession and I'm guessing you do to if you're reading this right now because this is a website about toys.  This one is designed by Sergio Mancini who makes cool toys and is a cool dude.  If you want to snag one you only have until December 3rd to get in on it.  So go right now and order one from http://www.outsmartoriginals.com/.
