Full Color and Soft Vinyl! It's Skeletor from Super7


     You know what would be awesome about being Skeletor?  Besides living on Snake Mountain or having a gang of minions that do what you say, those are pretty much a given as to being really cool perks.  But one you may have never thought of is having a head that is only a skull.  Hear me out now, cause if you've ever suffered from sinus problems you're about to be on my side.  By having nothing but skull you have no tissue to get inflamed, no ability to produce mucus that clogs your head and makes you feel gross, and if anything were troubling you in your sinus cavities you could easily solve any problem with a flash light and roofing nail.  Can you tell I've been sick this week?

 
     Super7 has been killing it recently and there's no stopping them with this sofubi Skeletor figure.  Dude looks amazing in his full color debut and I need one as bad as Donald Trump needs to come to terms with being bald.  These will be on sale this Thursday, March 3rd, at noon pacific time for $65 each from www.super7store.com.

Help Kickstart Luna from The Bots x UVD Toys




    Sharon and I decided that we would put a bird feeder outside of the window that the cats like to lounge in to offer them something interesting to look at.  Right away it was a hit, attracting all types of song birds to our house and offering the kitties a slew of critters to get excited about seeing.  We bought the fancy seed that doesn't have the shells on it because as they start to pile up they rot and smell like someone broke open a sewer pipe.  It's kinda gross.  Of course the stuff without the shells is more expensive, which is not a big deal until you see these little birds flinging it all over the place trying to get to the few bits they actually want to eat.  I've been out there several times trying to explain to them our socio-economic status, but apparently birds are quite uninterested in the fact that I have bills to pay.  They're lucky they're cute.

    Luna is the type of critter that appreciates the veritable feast that put outside for her.  Cause she shows up with a light show fit for a Pink Floyd concert attached to her antlers.  Hopefully she also shows up at a reasonable hour to take part in that feast, because the last thing I need is to be woken up by flashing lights in the middle of the night.  Makes me nervous.

    Luna was created by The Bots and will be the first release under Urban Vinyl Daily's UVD Toys brand.  She's on Kickstarter right now raising the necessary funds to go into production and into the collections of folks like you.  Check out the link here, pledge what you can, and clear off some shelf space to welcome her into your home.

Masters of The Universe Retro Action Figures from Super7




   What year is this?  Shane McMahon was on RAW last night and new He-Man toys are coming out. I ain't mad about it though, cause I love a little bit of nostalgia now and then.  And these new figures from Super7 nail it.  You've seen em in black and white, but now you'll have the chance to own them as you all remember them; in full color!!!!!  And just look how killer the packaging art is courtesy of Jason Edmiston.  You know you're gonna need two sets, cause you're gonna want one to play with in the bath tub (don't act like you're not thinking it) and then another to keep pristine on the cards cause they just look that good.  The preorder for these dudes is going on right now over at www.super7store.com and they will ship out to you in April.

Plaseebo Presents the CATerpillar



    Leave it to Plaseebo to create the one kitty I wouldn't let in my house.  And my kitty threshold is pretty broad, being that I thought for awhile that one of our youngest might have been a bobcat.  He looked a little like one, and he acted like he was on meth at times, so I figured that was enough proof of his wildness.  Not to worry though, he just turned out to be which doesn't make the situation any safer than if he had been completely wild.

    The best part about this guy is that you would most likely save a ton of money on cat food, as his diet mainly consists of neighbor children and small car parts.  Bring him into your life for cuddle time and murder when he goes on sale today at http://www.plaseebo.net/.

    

Sunny Orange Mandrake Root Lottery from Doktor A x Toy Art Gallery



 
    My wife and I had this epiphany that we are getting older and should probably stop eating like 10 year olds left to their own devices.  While cookies for dinner is as great as it sounds, I'm really trying to avoid my blood turning into the consistency of New York sewage, so we've been eating a lot healthier.  I've even been dabbling in the world of vegetables, which are disgusting but supposedly necessary to staying alive past 40.  For years I've felt that it is just propaganda from the farming industry, but who knew I would uncover evidence of just how dangerous plant based food can be.

    According to Wikipedia, the Mandrake root has hallucinogenic properties and was used in pagan rituals.  It's also causes asphyxiation, which seems like a steep price to pay just to enjoy a Doors album just a little more.  And I don't think they actually have any nutritional value due to them being able to kill you and all, but they don't make me eager to eat any other things that grow in the dirt, that's for sure.

    Don't fear the reaper with this dude cause he's only made of plastic and isn't some bizarre man-shaped plant trying to take you to the beyond.  Cast in beautiful orange, this Mandrake Root from Doktor A and Toy Art Gallery is going to be available via lottery staring today at noon pacific time.  Entries will be accepted until Monday at the same time and then winners will be notified to pony up the dough.  Get in on it at www.toyartgallery.com.

Blue Magic Pumpkin Boy from Super7 Available Now



    I've heard of white magic and I've heard of black magic, but blue magic is completely new to me.  I feel that maybe that's the kind of magic they use in very cold places and it involves a lot of sparkles or something.  Maybe that's what the White Walkers on Game of Thrones use cause they're kinda blue and frost bitten.  Maybe I just haven't had my nap yet and am rambling on about nonsense.  Either one could be the case.

     The moral of the story is that Super7's Blue Magic Pumpkin Boy is available for you to buy right this second.  You should start your day off right by visiting www.super7store.com and picking one up for yourself.  Then, if the rest of your day turns out to be crap you at least have something cool to look forward to in the mail.
