Dynamite Rex at Wondercon

    I want one of these!  Dynamite Rex will be at Wondercon starting today and look at the neat stuff they're bringing with them.  These resin figures are really cool.  I've always loved the double cast, visible skeleton look and it really adds a creepiness to an otherwise cute figure.  They have both 3 inch and 6 inch versions of these guys.  

    They also have a 3 inch clear Candy Series of resin figures and a 6 inch DIY vinyl toy for those of us that attempt to be artistic every now and then.  Pay them a visit at booth #977 all weekend.  

Papabehr Kickstarter

    Most of the time when you rip the head off of a toy you get thrown out of Target for scarring children.  For some reason people have a thing against plastic decapitation, but pretty soon that's gonna change because of this guy right here.  Meet Papabehr, a crazy, mechanized mammal that is hiding a USB drive in his neck.  Just pop his head off and store all your important documents/pictures that will prevent you from ever holding public office.  And of course they'll be safe there, cause this bear has a sword and a hug shoulder-mounted gun thingy.

    If you want one of these for yourself you gotta help make him a reality by checking out his Kickstarter page.  We all know how these work by now:  there are different levels of pledges you can make and different rewards that go with each one, like t-shirts and art prints.  So check out their page here and get this dude funded.  

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.
