t0fugirl is the QUEEN of super kick-ass amigurumi figures. She totally rules in my book since the creation of her Lumas and other Mario Bros. related crochet goodies. Above is a custom request she got. All she had to do was a dunny shaped figure. She was free to design it however she wanted, and [...]

A while back, I’d gotten word of Julie West’s participation in the Jansport Artist Series backpacks. I was really looking forward to their release because I love her and her style. She’s a rather cool gal who took my blank kaniza home and did it up for me [thanks again Tim for delivering it safe [...]

And the announcements keep rolling through. This one was picked up on Vinyl Pulse, where Jack got a photo of 4 of the upcoming Dunny Series 5 designs. They’re slated for a fall release. No word yet on the list of artists who’ll stamp on their style to the much loved and collected Dunny figure.

I’m not quite sure what Bullet Bill and the Zapper are doing together, they’re not in the same “universe” unless you had the dual game catridge that had both Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt [I did], but I still like the design. If you like it too, please hit the link below and vote [...]

Last Friday, I left you with a peak at Brent’s custom Kaws which he created for his Broken Hearts and Stolen Souls show at MPH. Above is a side view of the piece of work. I believe it’s the piece I took the most pictures of, I’m in love with it. I only wish I [...]

And finally, news of this duo is unleashed to the blog-o-sphere. What’s this mean? Loads of people just blew their top off as tokyoplastic’s upcoming geisha (SDCC exclusive) will be adorned with Simone Legno’s tokidoki art!! Oh snaps. I love both artists. The geisha is one of my favorite platforms and well, tokidoki has always [...]

I haven’t seen Andrew in the “scene” for a while. Last time I spotted him in person was during NYCC, though I do know he was at Tim Biskup’s show. The man is quite cool and modest, as most of the artists I’ve met have been. He, however, has a very cool demeaner, and I [...]

If I’ve said it before, I’m saying it again: crafters so rule the world. Above (and after the jump) are some of the projects that two great ladies worked on. The conclusion, I may need to order myself some of what they’ve got. Pictured above is Garth. Garth, according to kittypinkstar, is a gaming addict. [...]

Well, I’m sure you’ve been made aware of the Christie Auction House for some KidRobot products, right? It includes artists like; Sket, Mist, Tilt, Amanda Visell, and many more. Well, if you’ve been looking for those dunnies you weren’t around during release for, this may be your chance. If I had a couple grand to [...]

So, Kaws has just posted the image above on his blog. He’s going to be part of a group show in NYC titled: Everything Else at the Franklin Parrasch Gallery. OOh… aside from seeing the custom Kaws’ that Brent did this weekend (which he made his own), this will be the first time I see [...]

It’s officially been announced! Tokidoki (aka Simone Legno) is releasing an 8″ Dunny for KidRobot during SDCC. YAY!! Apparently the man will be at KidRobot’s booth (#4529) on Sunday from 11-2pm to sign these pizza inspired dunnies for the WORLD! So what do you think of it? I’ve got to be honest here, I have [...]

Today is Brent’s show over at MyPlasticHeart. I’ve been anticipating the arrival of this date since I first got wind of his upcoming show, and believe me, it’s been a while. I kept track of Brent’s flickr for sneak peeks and was falling in love with all the photos he released. I’ve been especially favoring [...]

SuperPunch posted images last night of Noferin’s totally kawaii upcoming figures, and saw it as my opportunity to finally post about them. They’ve been patiently waiting in my “Things to Post” file. Now, this might end up being a rather long post… since I plan on including tidbits of both the artists and the figures… [...]

Last night, while chatting with Steve (Mr. Turnip creator) he sent me a link to this adorable custom munny. He found this gem on the KidRobot forums [that I happen to belong to, but am not good about participating] and I was instantly in love. I have to say that it’s almost a default that [...]

On Wednesday, I posted a sneak of two upcoming characters from Jon Schiller. Now comes part 2- and part 2 contains the excitement of a ROBOT?!! In the same manner, I’ll go in ascending order of command. And therefore, Arm Droid is your first peek. Of all the upcoming characters, I have a feeling I’m [...]

Hey, did you know Space Invaders is officially 30 years old? For once, I did know this bit of information– the release of towels, duffel bags, Gloomy Bears with 30 Years stamped on their foot informed me of such celebration. I’m a fan of Space Invaders, even more when they attacked my screen as an [...]

I’m sure you’ve seen him somewhere already, but it was my intention to post Mr. Turnip a lot sooner. I know Steve and I love his sketchbot concept which I hope he brings to my life soon, but when I spotted Mr. Turnip on his flickr, I was super delighted. I fell in love with [...]

Hey, remember a while back I had my 1st interview with a fellow named: Jon Schiller? I’d fallen in love with his Mookie character who still invades my bed, and I had the privledge of getting a Little 9 print from him too. The print, by the way, looks great! Well, Little 9 and Friends [...]

When you log on to Flickr, on the home screen’s sidebar, there’s a list of some of the 3rd party services they use. I was surprised and confused to see Capital One listed there. I clicked and discovered that they have now made a partnership and a very beutiful one at that. Basically, if you’ve [...]
