Dragon Sword Fighter Force from Citizen Brick

    You know what's awesome about Citizen Brick?  They know what the people want.  Let's be realistic for a second, cause as much as we would all go absolutely ape over it, Lego is not gonna make these.  The show that these are based on is waaaaaaaay too out there with it's content for officially licensed sets to ever happen.  So Citizen Brick takes it upon themselves to ensure collectors can have what they want.  i think they're more like finely crafted little pieces of art myself, but I would probably still want to play with them.  There are 12 figures in total that you can either buy as 4 individual sets of 3, or you can get all 12 and a bonus 13th figure (seen below).  These are professionally made too, with big machines and whatnot, so the quality is as good if not better than the ones you buy at the store.  Get em right now at http://citizenbrick.myshopify.com/.

Pulp Fiction Pop! Vinyl from Funko

    Fact: Pulp Fiction nearly made John Travolta cool.  Then he went back to being an extreme weirdo again, but for that one brief moment, he was in a movie that was actually watchable.  Hollywood is a strange place that I will never understand.  I could go on for quite awhile about people who are allowed to continue to make movies that no one in the real world can take seriously, but that's what the rest of the internet is for.

    I do enjoy Pulp Fiction.  I enjoy just about everything Quentin Tarantino does, because you never really know what to expect from him, but you know that it will be crazy.  But even in his twisted worlds I don't think he could have ever predicted that characters from one of his films would be turned into cute little figures.  Or that you can't make Samuel L. Jackson not look mean no matter how hard you try.  Funko has continued their efforts to turn everything that ever existed into their Pop! Vinyl figures and I'm totally ok with that.  Look for them in stores next month.  

The Strange Ways In Which People Find This Website

    It always fascinates me how people find out about this website.  This month my favorite search criteria that was typed into Google by three different people in the world was: "salamander thingy".  Whoever you three folks are, I hope you enjoyed your visit while you were here, even though this site is severely lacking any information on amphibians.  Hopefully you did find something you could use in a research paper in the future though, as I am a wealth of knowledge about things made of plastic, cats, chicken nuggets, Scandinavian folklore, and the 1893 Columbian Exhibition.  Visit again soon!

World War Gee: The Yellow Zombie from Huck Gee

.

    So Huck Gee's recent production releases have been about as impossible to get as a Victoria's Secret model's phone number.  Those suckers sold out within minutes and left many sad folks around the world with empty shelf space.  If only there was a way that you could not only guarantee that you would get his next toy, but have it be even be constructed by his own hands.  Stop your bellyaching and rejoice because that's exactly what you can do starting tomorrow with this Yellow Zombie Dunny. You have 24 hours beginning at 1pm Pacific time to place your order for one of these, after which they will be produced and shipped off to their new owners.  He will only make enough to fill orders, so if you don't pull the trigger you will be sad forever.  Now this rotten little bunny rabbit ain't cheap at $450, but it is hand made and the quality is always impeccable.  This is something you can pass down to whichever grandkid comes and visits you at the nursing home the most.  Order yours at http://www.huckgee.com/.

Aqua Edition Octopup from Nathan Hamill x 3DRetro

    Let's face it, toys are for the most part expensive.  It's not easy to be a collector, and its even less easy to write about toys and want to buy everything you see.  And I live in an area where there really aren't too many options for buying this stuff in person, so you have to be mindful of shipping costs on top of that.  So it's nice to see that someone is making a toy that is affordable enough that you can collect every version that they release and not have to dig through the trash behind the grocery store to find your dinner. 

   Nathan Hamill and 3DRetro continue their series of soft vinyl Octopups with this aqua version.  Available starting tomorrow at noon Pacific time at http://www.3dretro.com/,  each one is only $10, so you can still buy yourself some chicken nuggets and have new toys.  

The Rainy Day Antagonist Kickstarter from Evilos

    We've all had those days where it seems like the universe is out to get us.  Those days where you wonder if how you want to respond will land you in jail for 25 to life.  Evilos has those days too.  The man loves to paint, and for him to do what he loves he needs the weather to cooperate.  When it doesn't, it can kind of feel just like his new resin figure looks.  "The Rainy Day Antagonist" has just gone live on Kickstarter and needs your help to see the light of day.  Plus, how can you not want  a figure that is flipping the elusive double bird?  I like to utilize this very cut and dry gesture while navigating through New Jersey traffic, but I have to keep at least on hand on the wheel, so I alternate which hand I use so no one feels left out.  My middle fingers are so strong from being used repeatedly against terrible drivers that I could probably snap your neck with one of them.  Just kidding, I'm really a nice guy (in case my employers are reading this).

Get Your Intergalactic Drank on With This New Figure From 2bitHACK

    What, you thought the galaxy was all lightsaber duels and bacteria in your blood that gives you magical powers?  The struggle is real, even in space.  Not everybody has a need for a robot that can pilot their spacecraft (especially if its on cinderblocks on the front lawn) or one that can speak a bajillion languages.  Sometimes you need a droid that can provide pure, urine-flavored liquid refreshment that will eat a hole through your stomach and make the pain go away.  That's what R4Doz does best.  2bitHACK has created a series of 29 of these resin dudes that are looking forward to keeping you company on those cold nights on the curb by 7-11.  Pick one up now by going to http://2bithack.storenvy.com/.
