Cupid Cavey from A Little Stranger

     This is so cute I could die!  Literally die right here in my seat.  But I have to be at work soon and I don't want to get in trouble for not calling to tell them I was dead, so maybe I'll just pass out and hit my head on the keyboard  uehfoeuhu3bujrjnvorj4porrofjekckn.dckdklncknihroh fhrfjk3rn3k/rn3r.

    Ok, I don't know how long I've been out, but I have a headaches and the letter J is suck up my nose.  OOOOOOOh my God it's sooooooooooooooo cute.  Just look at that wittle face, and those wittle wings.  It's Cupid Cavey and he (or she, I don't think they're gender specific) was made by A Little Stranger.  She hand made 40 of these little guys (or gals) and you can get one right now from http://heycavey.bigcartel.com/.  

Super7 Superbowl Sale

    Pretty self explanatory there, which is good because I still have to shower and shave for work.

   Yesterday I went to the zoo with my wife, even though I had a stomach ache and probably should have just stayed in bed and complained.  But they have deer there you can feed and while deer are no uber rare species of creature they never let you get close to them in the wild.  So it's kind of neat to have one come up to you to eat your popcorn.  And the goats are always fun, and they had this crow that was pretty chill and would catch pieces of popcorn from you and then dance around his cage.  They have tigers and stuff like that too but they won't let you close enough to pet them, which I don't understand.  I'm a grown man, I should be allowed to pet the tiger if I want to.  This story has absolutely nothing to do with toys at all, so I apologize if you were waiting for me to bring it back around and tie it all together.  Not gonna happen.  You can see some of my zoo pics on my Instagram.  Just look up TheToyViking.  I know I went all creative with the name there.  Gotta keep it consistant, for marketing purposes of course.  This thing is gonna take me to the top.  The top of the dung heap, which was pretty huge in the goat's enclosure.  Someone should have shoveled it out.

Ferg x Grody Shogun Lucky Bags from Lulubell Toy Bodega

    Not too long ago I finished up the biography of Walter Freeman, who was the guy who invented the icepick lobotomy.  Pretty fascinating stuff, especially since he was just kinda poking around and guessing at where he was cutting in your brain to cure you of mental disease.  Had his patients been as transparent as these guys, his success rate would have probably skyrocketed.

    These are the Young Ghosts from Ferg and Grody Showgun.  Today at noon Pacific through Lulubell Toy Bodega you can pick up a lucky bag that will contain one random figure from the glorious pile you see here:

Plus one of these guys:

    That's 2 figures for the low low price of $55!!!  What else can you buy these days for $55??  A hamburger from McDonalds made out of orphans?  I can barely fill my car up with gas for that much and I'm just gonna burn it up anyway, so why not use the money to buy something I can keep forever.

8 Inch Meltdown Dunnys from Chris Ryniak and Kidrobot

 
     I used to work at a place that had a microwave in the back room for us to use and right in the center of the door there was a hole. This hole went clean through the protective glass and into the actual chamber where the food is cooked, as if someone has stabbed the front of it with a screw driver in an effort to ensure the people he worked with could never pass on their defective genes. At least, I assume that someone was trying to sterilize those weirdos, but who would admit to using household radiation to nuke the privates of their coworkers? Not anyone that understands the statute of limitations I'll tell you that.

    These 8 inch Meltdown Dunnys were created by Chris Ryniak and Kidrobot. As you can see there are 4 different color variations of this sucker just to drive you mad. Certain ones are only available at certain places and here's the rundown:

Green: Kidrobot retail store locations

Yellow: Kidrobot.com

Pink: specialty toy stores in the United States

Orange: specialty toy stores in the rest of the world

    There are only 500 of each color, they glow in the dark, and they are $75 each. Prepare to go broke on Valentine's Day, February 14th.

Skelevex by alto and DMS

    Good Lord I want this thing! alto and DMS have put their heads together to create....a head. This faceted skull will be making it's debut at ToyCon UK this April at which point we'll probably learn about the pricing and everyone will buy one and I'll be jealous that I won't be able to take pictures of my cats with it.

Pink Chaos Bunny from Joe Ledbetter x The Loyal Subjects

    It's not always easy to shop for your favorite person from the internet (me), especially for Valentine's Day.  You don't want your undying devotion to go unnoticed, but since you already sent him (me) a pig's heart with a nail in it last year (it still smells weird in my house) how do you go about topping it  without the risk of serious infection from raw organ meat?  Allow me to make a suggestion.

    A Pink Chaos Bunny from Joe Ledbetter x The Loyal Subjects would make a most appropriate gift for this time of year!   There are only 200 of the 10 inch tall rabbits available and they go on sale today at noon Pacific time at www.theloyalsubjects.com.  They sell out of these suckers quickly every time so if you're already at work you might want to fake food poisoning and hide in the bathroom at the appropriate time.  Don't forget your smartphone though, or you'll feel dumb sitting there with your fake case of the bad poops.
