The Sucklord Has Bugs

    When we look back at the work of the Sucklord, will these be the pieces that speak most to art enthusiasts?  Will these be the ones in which he captured life in Metropolis in its rawest form, thus stirring the emotions of both those who've experienced it and those for which it is a foreign concept?  Would you believe me if I told you that I don't even drink?

    The Sucklord will one day be regarded as the genius we all know he is and by then his work will be unaffordable.  So the time to invest is now, when just one trip to donate some plasma could set you up with either one of these beauties.  And I hear they give you juice and cookies too!

Josh Mayhem's "Blown Away" 100% Bearbrick Series 1

    It's that time of year again where I get to complain about the rigors of shoveling snow.  I spent a small portion of yesterday digging out our cars, then spent a longer portion taking a nap so that my heart didn't explode through my rib cage.  I like the snow when it's coming down and I can safely watch it from the comfort of my living room, but having to shovel it or drive in it kinda ruins the good parts. And I don't have any entrepreneurial neighbor kids that are armed with their parent's shovels and looking to make money.  They're all lazy little bums.  Oh, and their music sucks too!  This now completes my old man rant for today.

    Josh Mayhem never has to shovel snow because he lives in California.  They do have earthquakes and wildfires though, so I guess it evens out.  When he's not battling uncontrollable blazes or hiding out in doorways to avoid falling debris, he's making toys that look like they're having the color blown right off of them.  His latest series involve 100% Bearbricks and you can buy yourself one of these beauties tomorrow (which is Tuesday the 10th) at 10am pacific time from www.joshmayhem.com.  They are limited to 24 pieces, sold blind box style, and will probably not last as long as it took you to read this.

The Clinical Clearance from Tenacious Toys

    It's clinical! It's systematic!  It's down right precise!  It's The Tenacious Toys Clinical Clearance Sale!!!!!!!

Forces of Dorkness Has Opened the Archives

   Regret is the worst feeling in the world.  The worst emotional feeling, because there are plenty of physical feelings I would trade you for some regret any day of the year.  But do not tax yourself with mental burdens so early into this New Year and make past regrets vanish with the click of a mouse because Forces of Dorkness is giving you a second opportunity at pieces you may have missed out on.  Were you burdened with bills?  Kidnapped by Somali pirates?  In a coma?  It doesn't matter, because you can make up for lost time right now by checking out http://forcesofdorkness.storenvy.com and securing all those items you're still kicking yourself for passing up the first go round.  You'll have no one to blame but yourself and maybe Somali pirates, but if you got kidnapped by them twice I'm thinking that's your fault.  

The Hammy New Year Sale from Nathan Hamill

    I don't bother with New Year's resolutions because I don't like to set myself up for failure.  The chances of me going to the gym are practically zero, my dietary restrictions are already at a place where eating better would be hard to do, and main eventing Wrestlemania seems a little far fetched despite my delusions of grandeur.  But one thing all of us could resolve to do is be a little better with our money and Nathan Hamill is going to lead us down the road of fiscal responsibility by kicking off 2017 with a sale.

   Officially dubbed the Hammy New Year Sale (it took me a moment to realize it was a play on his last name and had nothing to do with a love of pork products) you'll be able to get those items of his you've been coveting while saving some cash in the process.  So not only will you have extra money, which is responsible, you'll also be able to surround you with things that make you happy, which is important for your mental well being.  It's like grabbing 2017 by the neck and whispering softly into it's ear "I am the captain now"!  

    Visit his site at http://nathanhamill.storenvy.com, use the code HAMMYNEWYEAR, an enjoy 20% off of everything your heart desires.  The sale is going on now through January 9th at 12pm pacific time, so don't procrastinate cause that would set a bad tone for the rest of the year.  

Meat Marbled Brain Bug Boogie Man from Cure X James Groman

   No I actually did not hit my head right before typing out the title of this figure, even though it would be safe to assume traumatic brain injury if you heard someone say it out loud.  Let's regroup.

   I had a dream once (like a sleeping dream not some great revelation of hope for mankind) that crab people that looked very similar to this stormed the shores of countries around the world and were laying waste to the human population.  My family and I were holding up in some random country house and they finally advanced upon us with their sea weapons and filthy attitudes.  All I had was a broadsword, because evidently I am not terribly practical in such apocalyptic situations.  I totally went for it though and was turning them into fodder for the crows when my damn alarm went off to get up for work.  I actually contemplated being late so I could see how the battle was going to go, but my love of capitalism ultimately won out.  I'd like to think my face at least made it onto a coin after I slaughtered them like a Red Lobster employee.

    No need to thank me from saving your hides from these things, cause I'm totally humble and all the praise would make me uncomfortable.  Build an army of your own and rescue humanity from impending doom.  Cure and James Groman created this figure, and Lulubell Toys are making them available to us all starting on the first day of the new year.  You will have a three day window to order as many of them as you want as long as you're willing to shell out the $200 each.  Get em at www.lulubelltoys.com.
