Super Series Sunday from Kid Ink Industries x Tenacious Toys

    Forget dragging your kids to the mall to take their pictures with some weirdo dressed up as a rabbit.  This Easter, save the money you would normally spend on traumatizing them for life and get yourself something nice instead.  Or two somethings.  

    Tenacious Toys continues their ongoing Super Series Sunday releases with Kid Ink Industries and these resin Sumo Troopers.  The blue one will be offered through Tenacious Toys, while the red one will be for sale through the Kid Ink Industries Hazarai shop.  They will be sold blind bagged because mixed in the editions will be glow in the dark and hand painted versions.  Only 25 of the blue and 15 of the red exist and they will be $30 each.   Get yours on March 31st at 4pm eastern time.  

Wondercon Exclusives from DeKorner

    So many things are going on at Wondercon it makes me wanna call in sick and hop a plan to California.  Yes, we all know that's not gonna happen, but once the money starts rolling in from this website that's how I'm gonna live.  Flying all over the world and buying toys.  Wait, there's no money in being a toy blogger?  I'm going to shoot my life coach in the face.

DeKorner will be at Wondercon with a ton of exlcusives so let's run down the list of what they have:

    Andrew Bell's Can of Worms from Bic Plastics will be debuting its Bloodworm Edition.  $50 for you good sir.  

    They will also have a special Yellow Gummy Deadbeet set from Scott Tolleson.  You get one full size figure in clear yellow and one mini figure in solid yellow.  Scott himself will be there tomorrow from noon to 1pm to sign 'em for ya.  They'll be $77.

    Attendees will also be able to pick up the new Apologies to Banksy figures for the first time in the US. These are 3d interpretations of some of Banksy's well know stencil work.  Visit the DeKorner at booth #1179.

Despicable Me 2 Pop! Vinyl from Funko

    I'm so out of touch with what's going on in the world that I didn't even know they were making Despicable Me 2.  I really need someone to give me a daily briefing like the President gets every day so I don't get caught of guard by such things.  TMZ sure didn't inform me of it this morning.  All I know is some dude got spit on by Justin Bieber and is filing an assault charge on him.  I'm sure he's only doing that because he'll be able to sue and win lots of money, but how embarrassing would it be to be the guy who got assaulted by the Biebs?  You may get rich, but you'll forever be the biggest wuss in history.

    Back to business.  A new movie of course can mean only one thing.  Pop! Vinyl figures from Funko!  You can get them all at the beginning of May and there is still an uber secret bad guy dude that they have yet to reveal.  He is represented by the black shape at the bottom.  Just in case you thought I was going crazy and just putting random pictures up instead of ones that actually have to do with the subject matter.  Which, if you ask my wife, is a fair assumption.  

Libertas Resin Skulls from Jon-Paul Kaiser x Tru:Tek

    I would like to refine my collection a bit.  Or maybe just start a new collection, as that seems much easier and plays into my hoarding tendencies.  I want to collect art skulls.  How cool would it be to get a nice antique cabinet and fill it with nothing but brain shells?  So many have been released recently that it would be pretty easy to do, and this is where I would want to start.

    Jon-Paul Kaiser got together with Tru:Tek of Man-E-Toys to create these Libertas skulls.  These will be available at ToyConUK at Jon's booth (which he is sharing with Richard Page of UME Toys).  There are 10 of the regular version available for £65 and only 5 of the Scribed version for £80.  These guys are stunning and if you're able to pick one up you should email your address so I can come rob, I mean visit, you.  I'll bring cookies.  

Shmurfy Dead Beet Sets from Scott Tolleson

    You can't pay kids enough to actually eat them, but in plastic form they sell out like they're made of solid gold.  No, I'm not talking about cyanide pills, I'm talking about Scott Tolleson's Dead Beet figures.   They're insanely popular and are always snatched up moments after they go on sale.  This time he's paying tribute to everyone's favorite blue midgets with a set of Shmurfy Beets.  You get one of the blue bodied ones and one of the white bodied ones all for $130.  They go on sale this Friday at 10am Pacific time at http://www.stolleart.com/store/ and only 20 sets are available.  

Fossilized Morrow from Taylored Curiosites

    When I was in kindergarten I was positive I was going to grow up to be an archaeologist.  I was going to travel the world and dig up dead things for fun and profit.  It seemed like a great plan, but then I thought "I should really work retail instead, it seems more lucrative."  No one said I was the best at making decisions.  

    Taylored Curiosities is taking the leg work out of searching for ancient corpses by creating these Fossilized Morrows.  They're weird critters who lived a long time ago and have now left behind little hints of their existence.  Each one is hand made and comes with a miniature book explaining their story.    If you would like one that's more personal you can even create your own to order.  They're available now at http://tayloredcuriosities.bigcartel.com/.

Wondercon Exclusives from Jesse Hernandez

    That's some serious shine coming off of these figures.  Jesse Hernandez and Kuso Vinyl are trying to add some treasure-worthy items to your collection this weekend at Wondercon.  You're gonna need some lasers, a few nasty guard dogs, and a crack security team to keep these safe.  Only 15 of each were made and they will retail for $130, which is nothing when you think of what Indiana Jones is gonna go through to try and steal them.  

    You don't think Jesse would come with just two exclusives?  Thats not how he rolls.  He comes with an entire Uhaul truck of goods.  This Jaguar Knight from Pobber Toys is an exclusive to Bait and they will release 15 of them per day at booth #1173.  And it glows in the dark.  And it does your taxes.  Only one of those things is true.
