2 painted sets of Max Toy's Monster Boogie Micros will be released as an exclusive to Hyper Hobby on January 27th 2013 (Japan Time) HERE.

NerdOne Steregon Hyper Hobby Exclusive

Hyper Hobby x NerdOne Exclusive Steregon Release on January 27th 2013 (Japan Time) HERE.

Jetture x Hyper Hobby Exclusive Giant Sparta "Fellow Bot" Version

Hyper Hobby will be releasing an exclusive Jetture Giant Sparta "Fellow Bot" version on January 27th 2013 (Japan Time) HERE.

Hyper Hobby Exclusive Real Uamou

Hyper Hobby will be releasing their exclusive Real Uamou figure which is a collaboration figure between RxH & Uamou. This figure goes on sale on January 27th 2013 (Japan Time) HERE.

Hello Kitty POP!

Hello Kitty POP! Vinyl figure by Funko x Sanrio. When you think of Sanrio, you automatically think of Hello Kitty. Took a bit to finally find one with a reasonable paint app.

Neca's TMNT Batsu Vinyl Figures

Stumbled upon these TMNT Batsu vinyl figures from NECA that came out a few years ago at a Toysrus outlet store. Really don't remember seeing these or hearing about these when they came out. Oh well, these are not the best vinyl figures out there clearly but if it's TMNT and the price is right at $5.99 each you can't lose. The paint apps are ok. Luckily the store refilled the shelves with more to choose from so was able to pick the best ones of each. They all come with their weapons of choice and all have different facial expressions.

Raaarghhh! Here Comes Mini Abominable Marshall

Ahhh another awesome release before the holidays. 64 Colors' Abominable Mini Marshall arrived just before Christmas. He's a bit taller than 2".


So cute! Now all he needs is his matching pal Gumdrop. No issues at all with the paint and Squibbles Ink x Rotofugi x 64 Colors did a wonderful job on this. Can't wait for more mini Marshalls.

Mmmm... Gingerbread Dumpling

Some of the best things gets released during the holidays. MyPlasticHeart x Shawnimals released their Gingerbread Pocket Pork Dumpling.
The only sad part was trying to open the package without totally destroying it.
The paint was a bit iffy on the eyes. Just would've like to see more consistency with either overspray on both eyes and not just one. Overall it was a cool concept and still cute. Great for gifts too!

To Infinity and Beyond!!! Funko's 9" POP! Buzz Lightyear

Funko's 9" POP! Disney Buzz Lightyear figure. Picked this guy up during a Black Friday Sale. Paint app on this guy was good but there were some issues. As long as it's not super noticeable it's acceptable.
As it came out of the box, it had some of vinyl plastic oils seeping out and quickly wiped it off. It's not uncommon to have these types of oils seeping out or leaking. If you've collected vinyl toys for the past 5+ years you will understand. If you're new to collecting this can happen from time to time on vinyl toys.

Really hope Funko will make more 9" Toy Story Figures or perhaps even the smaller 2.5" Mini Pop!

Angry Birds Star Wars Series 1 Figures

Rovio x Hasbro teamed up for Angry Birds Star Wars and that they released loads of merchandise (unless you've been living under a rock). Recently got this blind pack of figures. You get 2 per pack and as you can see we got the exclusive Han Solo Bird (in Carbonite) & Rebel Trooper Bird. They have quite a few Battle Games like the AT-AT, Fight on Tatooine, Jabba's Palace etc...

Shout Factory x Nickelodeon Rocko's Modern Life - The Complete Series DVD Pre-order + Exclusive Lithograph

Shout Factory x Nickelodeon Rocko's Modern Life - The Complete Series 8-Disc DVD Set is up for Pre-order for $29.93 and as a bonus if you pre-order now you will also receive an exclusive 18"x 24" lithograph by creator/artist Joe Murray featuring newly commissioned artwork. Lithographs are only while supplies last. Pre-order yours now before they're all gone. Release date is scheduled for 2/26/13.

What’s a wallaby to do when he’s surrounded by annoying neighbors, freeloading pals, heaps of laundry and the weight of life in general? Why, turn to his loyal canine, Spunky, dim-witted best pal, Heffer and neurotic nay-sayer Filburt to help him confront the trials and tribulations of modern life.

Created by Joe Murray (Camp Lazlo, Frog In A Suit) and starring Carlos Alazraqui (CatDog, RENO 911), Tom Kenny (SpongeBob SquarePants), Mr. Lawrence (SpongeBob SquarePants) and Charlie Adler (Aaahh!!! Real Monsters), Rocko’s Modern Life originally aired in 1991 on Nickelodeon and has since become a cult favorite all around the world. One of the few brilliant cartoons to break through the genre and emerge as a truly original television experience, Rocko inspires the artist in us all!

THAT WAS A HOOT!


Bundle Contains:
  • Rocko's Modern Life: Rocko's Modern Life: The Complete Series
  • Rocko's Modern Life: Rocko's Lithograph
Bonus Features:
  • “Wacky Deli” Live 2012 With Joe Murray And The Cast

    Super7 posted this teaser image of a Mystery Release on their blog.
    "What could this be?   A cosmically interesting close up of a soon-to-release surprise?  Will it drop when the ball does?"
    From their info above. It sounds like it could possibly be a New Year's Release.

Retails for $7.95 each and limit is 3 1 per customer and/or household. Pick one up tomorrow HERE SOLD OUT!

    Josh Herbolsheimer's "Green Hell" Pocket Rose Vampire

    Just when you thought it couldn't get any better it does! The pocket sized Rose Vampires are perfect. These sold out instantly. Super7 ended 2012 with one "Green Hell" of a release. More pocket RVs for 2013 please! :)

    Futurama's Nibbler Vinyl Figure

    Ahhh Futurama!!!! Nibbler!!!! Kidrobot released Matt Groening's Nibbler as a 6" vinyl figure from his other animated show Futurama. Nibbler comes with a tray of kitty litter and some piles of poop. Paint on this guy is pretty damn good too.

    Super7's Holiday Kandy Kaiju

    Super7 released a couple of cool Kandy Kaijus for the Holidays. Milton was released as an after Thanksgiving Dessert and Holiday Cookie Foster was just released in time to maybe offer him up for Santa. $25 each and both are available at Super7.

    Kidrobot's Micro Munnys

    Kidobot recently released Micro Munny, Trikky, Foomi & Raffy. These stand 2.5" tall. Each comes blind bagged so you don't know which color you'll get. They all come with a paint can accessory and a sticker sheet. Retails for $6.95 each.

    The smaller figures look great. Sorta like these better than their bigger versions. Who knew both figures would end up being the same color. Definitely great for gifts and to customize.

    It's So Cold.....Scott Tolleson's Frankie Frost Android

    Scott Tolleson designed this Special Holiday Edition "Frankie Frost" Android and was released a couple of weeks ago at Dead Zebra (Dyzplastic). Scott also released a few A/P sets as well through his shop. If you're looking for something unusual to give to someone, this might just do the trick.

    New Monster Family Member - Mummy Seijin

    This is the newest member of Super7's Monster Family. Mummy Seijin is a collaboration between Brian Flynn & KaToPe. Mummy Boy's head on Drunk Seijin's body. This collaboration works really well. Retails for $35 and still available at Super7.

    Hot Wheels The Mystery Machine and Red Bird (Angry Bird)

    Ever just walk down the toy aisle at a store and you randomly find something totally unexpected? We did just that. We found The Mystery Machine and an Angry Bird Red Bird Hot Wheels. Both are new for 2012.
