Glow In The Dark Heathrow from Frank Kozik on Sale Today!!!!!

    It's been an interesting week with the critters in my house.  Our two kittens got spayed and neutered and while the boy did fantastic, the girl has been a pickle.  Her incision was glued and she was wearing that cone of shame to prevent her from licking it, but somehow she got a hold of a Diamond Dallas Page Yogo tape and learned to bend in such a way that she ATE ALL THE GLUE!  So she had to make a return visit to the vet last night to get staples and a new behemoth cone that is the size of a wok.  She weighs all of 4 pounds and it's heartbreaking/kinda funny to watch her maneuver with this green plastic monstrosity around her neck.  And then she looks at you, with her big eyes like pools of sadness, and all I can think of is that damn ASPCA commercial with Sarah Mclachlan and I swear I can hear the song in my head and I race to turn the channel before it completely ruins my day but it's not on tv it's in my walk-in closet where she has to be confined for the next few days to keep the other cats from conspiring with her to pull the staples out an I feel like I'm going to have a psychotic break if I keep looking into those sad eyes and the little tears that have pooled at their bottoms.  

    So how's everything with you guys?  Good, good.  Heathrow from Frank Kozik is ready to omit a soft glow to keep you calm at night when Canadian songstresses have burrowed into your ears with tales of animal sadness.  You can buy one of these big dudes when they go on sale today at noon Pacific time from http://www.frankkozik.net/.  Only 30 exist and 1 in 6 customers will win a unique little Heathrow that I believe is a test pull.  Check em out.

Pink Porcelain Skull Brain from Emilio Garcia and K. Olin Tribu

    Not too long ago I read the book "The Lobotomist" about Walter Freeman, who was the man that pioneered the transorbital lobotomy.  You know, where they shove an ice pick through your eye socket and scramble up your frontal lobes.  The scary thing about it is not that he was delusional enough to think that it was a good idea, but that they were doing this nonsense only 50 years ago.  It makes you wonder what barbaric thing we do now will be looked at in the future with scornful eyes.  Like letting dudes wear skinny jeans.  

(On a side note, if you're interested in the first book, you should follow it up by reading "My Lobotomy", which was written by one of Freeman's patients who received a lobotomy at the age of 12)

    K. Olin Tribu has released another edition of Emilio Garcia's popular Skull Brains, this time in fleshy pink.  This is by far my favorite, as it looks freshly plucked and ready for your dinner table!  Think about it:  it's probably safer than eating anything that comes out of the ocean.  This porcelain sculpture is available now by visiting http://www.artandtoys.com/.  

Amazon Exclusive Game of Thrones Bundle Packs from Funko

    I would like to firmly smack the person that scheduled the season premier of Game of Thrones at the exact same time as Wrestlemania.  I hate having to make decisions like that about what I'm going to watch, and in the end Wrestlemania won out.  Because if I didn't watch wrasslin last night the internet would have spoiled it for me and I wouldn't be able to watch RAW tonight because that would have spoiled it for me.  I'm hoping that those of you who watched Game of Thrones will be kind and keep it to yourself until the rest of us catch up.  Please and thank you.  But holy crap if you watched WWE like I did you're probably half pissed/half excited this morning.  I'm not gonna ruin it for you in case you didn't see it, but it was pretty surprising.  

    To celebrate the return of Game of Thrones (which I missed) Funko has created these two bundle packs that are exclusive to Amazon.com.  You get a t-shirt, a figure from the show, and a keychain of said figure.  The Daenerys Targaryen figure is brand spanking new and since we named one of our cats after her I'm gonna have to get one.  These will ship out at the end of May but are up for preorder now.

Platform A OpenSource 2.0 from alto for ToyCon UK

    Generally, it is frowned upon if you take someone else's work, mass produce it, and make tons of money.  But if you buy the design outright, it is yours to do with as you please.  alto is giving you a chance to start your own toy line or just have something cool and rare to look at with his OpenSource 2.0 figure.  Entitled "Platform A", there is only one of these in existence in the whole world and if you buy it you are also buying the rights to do with it as you please.  Make a million of them, or just keep it locked away in your toy hoard.  The choice is yours and for £100GBP, I can almost guarantee that someone is going to be quick to snatch this up when it's made available at ToyCon UK.  Start your own factory and put those annoying neighbor kids to work!

Midnight Hunter Berserker from Mutant Vinyl Hardcore

    They should make you take a test to ensure you're man enough to own a toy like this.  May I suggest some questions in case that were to happen:

1.) What is your favorite Justin Bieber song?  

2.) Where would you rather go on vacation:  Mordor or the Bahamas?

3.)  When you blow by a cop on the side of the road is your first thought to outrun him, or to start    crying now so you get out of a ticket?

    I won't tell you the correct answers, because if you don't know them you should be reading another website.  Mutant Vinyl Hardcore doesn't require a test to own this Midnight Hunter Berserker, just  lottery with all your pertinent information.  If you're lucky and you get picked, then you'll be able to buy this behemoth of a toy that will probably force your kids into years of therapy.  The aforementioned lottery is happening right now and will last until 11:59pm Eastern time tonight.  Head over to http://www.mutantvinylhardcore.com/, enter your info, then go on a crime spree to scratch up the $185 so you can buy this sucker if you win.  

ToyCon UK Exclusives from Mintyfresh

    ToyCon Uk is a little over a week away and the exclusives are finally starting to pop up online.  The event is sold out already, so now would be the time to contact your English friends and beg them to buy you all the stuff you want.  That is unless they don't have tickets either, then you'd just be wasting time you could be using to make new friends that would better be able to help you.  Friends with benefits doesn't always have to denote something scandalous ya know.

    Mintyfresh has three exclusives that will make you spend all of your money the moment you walk through the door.  That bear from Instinctoy looks like he's been wandering through a toxic wasteland, or as we would call it in New Jersey: Trenton.  There are two versions of this radioactive looking dude:  a flocked one that is limited to 50 pieces and available at the con, and a glow in the dark version that is also limited to 50 and available online for those of us not able to go or that live half way around the world.  

    And they'll have two mean looking Debris figures from Restore that just want to come home with you and cuddle on the couch.  There's the Glaciation edition that looks like hypothermia has set in, and the SFB Blue edition that stands tall in his unpainted glory.  

    They will be holding a lottery (which you can enter right now) for any leftovers they may have from the event.  Sign up at https://mintyfresh.wufoo.com/forms/toycon-uk-leftovers-lottery/.

    

Bedtime Bunnies from Peter Kato Release Tomorrow!

    I seriously need a nap.  My two smallest cats have entered their puberty phase (don't worry, they are getting spayed/neutered tomorrow, I am responsible sometimes) and have not let me sleep the past few nights.  If teenagers were the same way the human race would have been extinct hundreds of years ago.  They're so restless and they figure if they're gonna stay up and act like weirdos all night then you should too.  Not cool kitties, not cool.

    Just looking at these Bedtime Bunnies from Peter Kato reminds me of all the sleep I've forever lost.  And they're fricken cute beyond anything.  Just look at them, their peaceful little faces; their adorable little bunny slippers.  They come in two different sizes:  a 3 inch one for $20, or a 2 and 1/2 inch one for $12.  As always, these are hand made by Peter in his secret lair/studio.  Get one, or a pile of em, when they go on sale tomorrow (April 3rd) at http://peterkatoshop.com/.
