We LOVE Domo-Kun, the Japanese television mascot. Who knew that a corporate marketing ploy could be so friggin' adorable!?!?!

This version is made of rotocast vinyl, and flocked. So it's fuzzy. Like velvet.

And that, dear friends, is just flippin' sweet!!

8" tall, rotocast vinyl. Filled with kittens and love.

Ho Chi Minh Vinyl Bust

First to recommend

Description

Fourteen inches of dayglo vinyl glory from Frank Kozik, the most excellent curmudgeon who ever lived and sneered!

This limited edition (only 50 made in this color) vinyl bust of Ho Chi Minh comes with a hat, machine gun, and hope for the people.

The bust is vinyl, while the hat and gun are cold cast resin. Heavy-weight stuff, and they feel nice and solid.

Shawnimals - Plushform (DIY Plush!)

First to recommend

5 people recommended this item

Description

We're totally in love with the whole DIY toy thing that's building up steam, and this guy is a perfect way to let your kids get creative!

About 9 inches tall, the Plushform is a blank plush figure whose outer shell is made of a sort of pre-primed canvas material. So you can paint, draw, doodle, sew, or iron-on pretty much anything you want and have a fun little plushie that you made yourself!

Way better than getting some kind of licensed crap based on whatever movie came out this week, this lets your kids do something cool for themselves!!

Woo hoo!!

Soopa Bros. Coin-Up DIY Figure

First to recommend

Description

ESC Toys has, officially and for all time, created the ultimate vinyl platform toy for those of us who grew up hucking quarter after quarter into arcade games.

Clocking in at an impressive 8" tall, the Soopa Bros. Coin-Up is all of your favorite arcade games just waiting to happen. And all those arcade games you made up in your head? Well, now you can make them.

Paint, markers, stencils, rub-on letters...whatever you want to use, you can decorate the Coin-Up with. It even comes with blank white paper labels for the sides, back, screen, and marquee in case you'd rather work digitally and print it out!

Jamungo Bomb Of The Month: Smile F*cker

First to recommend

Description

Jamungo is officially Steve's new favorite designer toy company. Because they make toys that say "f*ck" on them, and that is the sort of thing that launches him into giggling fits that usually end with Diet Pepsi flying out of his nose.

The Bomb Of The Month series has a new 3" figure coming out each month using one of Jamungo's four head shapes...a grenade, a bomb, a flame, or an A-Bomb. Sometimes they'll give guest artists a shot at the design, other times Ferg himself will do the design. In any event, they are always great.

Smokin' Joe Stalin - Rotofugi Exclusive Cyan Flocked

First to recommend

Description

From Rotofugi:

Grab your baseball shirt and smokes, comrades.

Frank Kozik follows up his "Bird is the Word" Smokin' Mao bust with another satirical spin on the world's worst dictators. In Frank's twisted world Stalin's having a DiMaggio moment, smokin' in a pinstriped "Bolsheviks" baseball jersey (although you can't really see the pinstripes in this flocked version).

Rotocast vinyl with a nice fuzzy coating of cyan blue flock. This Rotofugi exclusive version is an edition of just 50 pieces! Designed by Frank Kozik and sculpted by Brin Berliner for Kid Robot.

From Shoparooni Steve:

Holy crap. Seriously. Friggin' WOW.

WOO HOO!

Two of Steve's favorite things...Elvis and designer vinyl toys!

The 400% Elvis Bearbrick clocks in 11 inches tall, making it a pretty sizeable piece for your collection. Hell, it's damn near furniture at that size!

Fire up the stove and make yourself some grilled peanut butter and banana sammichs! All hail The King!

Reach Bear - Glossy Black

First to recommend

Description

Taiwanese graff writer Reach has finally committed his iconic Bear character to vinyl!! Available in Glossy Black, Flat Pink, and Flat Yellow this is one of the nicest pieces that Kidrobot has offered to date.

We both really dig Reach's work...very bold lines and his Bear character is one of the most recognizable branding attempts by any writer in recent memory.

Quality stuff!!

NeighborWood DIY Figure by Mike Burnett

First to recommend

Description

This is very seriously one of the coolest things we've ever seen.

They arrived today, and Steve absolutely could not stop fiddling about with the display models.

The Neighborwood is a DIY wooden figure, designed by Cleveland artist Mike Burnett. It's the same principle as the Munny from Kidrobot...a blank toy that you decorate yourself. But this one is made of WOOD!!!

It's a more solid material that's got far more staying power than vinyl, and we think there is a larger range of possibilities considering that it's solid.

The only downside is that wood is an organic material, and these are prone to being affected by the weather. The head is glued from 3 pieces, and the ears are glues on as well. So if these have been exposed to high heat during shipping or storage, you will see the beginnings of some separation of the glue joints. It's nothing major, and the glue holds just fine. Once it's been painted, it won't be noticeable at all!!

The wooden slide-top box can also double as a display box which, of course, you can also customize!!

Pure genius from Bigshot Toyworks and Mike Burnett. Well done!

Kids are people too. They're just smaller, and sometimes need helping wiping their butts. Plus, they can't drive worth a crap.
