If you're lucky enough to have attended San Diego Comic Con than this toy might look pretty familiar to it. That's because actress Tanya Tate is often times seen roaming around the convention floor dressed exactly like this. Her company My Hero Toys is now paying homage to her well known cosplay with this figure. At only $30 its probably the best bargain you'll find all day and it's most likely the only way you'll could convince her to come home with you.

Porceplane by Flatau Florian x K. Olin Tribu
Normally, I'm a huge fan of throwing things and would never tell you to not throw a paper airplane. I'm no buzzkill, and sometimes great things happen, like getting stuck in a stranger's hair, or landing on someone's dinner. But you really really should not throw this one. For one, you might seriously injure someone, which will result in years of court and lawyers fees. And most importantly, this sucker would break cause it's made of porcelain.
This uber fancy paper airplane from K. Olin Tribu x Flatau Florian is limited to 30 pieces and available right now at http://www.artandtoys.com/

"Not Another Heartless Bastard" Resin Bust from Huck Gee
Ooooooh how did they get that sweet anatomical heart to float in the resin like that? I'm sure there's some practical explanation that would be way more boring than the ideas I came up with. First off was dwarf magic, because if they could make Thor's hammer, I'm pretty sure this is not a big deal. My second guess was also dwarf magic, because the more you think about it the more sense it really makes. I didn't bother with a third guess because I'm marking this mystery as solved and moving on to something else.
Huck Gee never fails to impress me with the things he releases and this is no exception. Despite the fact that he's got some dirt on the dwarves that live beneath his studio and blackmails them into doing all of his work. There's no law against it, unless you're dressing the neighbor kids up as dwarves and then running a sweatshop. But hey, I'm no narc.
You know you want this piece of resin goodness that is ready just in time for Valentine's Day. It will be released tomorrow, Friday the 13th, on what will be the newly relaunched www.huckgee.com. Limited to only 50 signed and numbered pieces, each 6 inch bust will retail for $200 when it drops at noon pacific time.
Kidrobot to Offer Adventure Time Toys This Summer
Have you ever watched Adventure Time? There's some crazy stuff going on in that show. Not that you couldn't look at the gang of characters right there and come to that conclusion on your own, but the show will make you question the last strand of sanity you're holding onto. And its really funny. And it's fitting that Kidrobot, a company based in Colorado, would be making toys for the hit series. Not that Colorado is known for legally selling anything that would enhance your experience while watching Adventure Time. I would never insinuate such a thing.
A plethora of products will be unleashed this summer, including an exclusive for San Diego Comic Con. Of course, not everything they're making is pictured above, cause that would just ruin your ability to squeal when everything is unveiled. So squeal now, and save some squeals for later.
The Ice-Cat from Joe Ledbetter Drops Tomorrow
Is this from that movie Frozen, cause I haven't seen it? Just kidding, I know it's not but I'm completely serious about having not watched it. When you tell people that you might as well have said that your favorite past time is kicking puppies, because the horrified looks on their faces would be the exact same. I try to explain to them that I don't have children so why would I be interested but that is never an acceptable excuse. Yet it's the same one that makes it totally ok for me to not go to Chuck E. Cheese or petting zoos (even though I enjoy petting the goats just as much as any 5 year old). I know people that haven't seen Star Wars and yet I'm the bad guy in all of this.
Oh, and don't leave your cats outside in the winter cause it's kinda mean. Unless you own a snow leopard or Siberian tiger, cause their names kinda dictate that they're down with the chilly weather. And don't leave Joe Ledbetter's Ice-Cat outside either. Not because he will freeze, but because someone will probably steal it. They are limited to only 200 pieces, so someone's gonna be left out....wait for it...IN THE COLD! These go on sale tomorrow from http://store.joeledbetter.com/ at 8am pacific time for $110 each.

Mint Green Gacha Minis from Paul Kaiju x Toy Art Gallery
These look delicious. I wonder why no one has ever made edible toys before. Maybe they don't want you to have to choose between having your toy or biting it's yummy little head off. I would be torn as to what to do. I would probably eat it, knowing that I'd instantly regret it, then I would complain and my wife would tell me to be quiet because Downton Abbey is on and I'm totally ruining it. I love that show. Did you see Lady Mary's new haircut? What a fox! Edith is just insufferable though and I realize she's had it rough but you're never going to get out from your sister's shadow if all you do is mope around the house all day.
Toy Art Gallery is releasing a new set of mini figures from Paul Kaiju today in hunger inducing mint green. You can get a set of them for $60 starting at noon pacific time from http://shop.toyartgallery.com/.
Mixed Parts Boogeyman from Cure x Lulubell Toy Bodega
Most kids worry that the boogeyman or some other monster is hiding under their bed, but I never did. I figured they'd be in the closet, where it was much more spacious. Knowing that no monster would want to hide beneath where I slept, I tried it out myself one day. I was about 5 or 6 at the time and it was close to diner time, so I slid under there to hide from my parents. They called me to come to the table but I didn't answer. They looked all over the house, the backyard, anywhere they could think of, while I had my face in my hands barely able to control my laughter. I thought I had pulled off a Houdini level disappearing act. That is until I heard my mom on the phone with the police reporting me missing. Panic had set in but it was too late; I was running down hill with my little prank and I was gonna crash hard at the bottom. The cops showed up, gave me a lecture, and diner was cold. And thus began the runaway train that is my life of crime.
Just kidding. But for that day, proved that no monster other than a mischievous child who was in a lot of trouble was living under my bed. If I had seen these guys prior to that, I might have thought twice about going down there. Cure Toys has released their newest mixed parts Boogeyman through Lulubell Toy Bodega and they are available right this second! Limited to only 1 per customer, you can choose from the unpainted ones you see above for $89, or the painted ones below for $99. These things are very limited and will sell out soon, so get you hind parts to http://www.lulubelltoys.com/ before they're gone.
