The Sucklord has announced a trio of brand new products that we're way too excited about:
SUCK-SHARK SUCKPEG
This is the Sucklord's tribute to JAWS, "a yet-untapped Suckadelic Influence
that needed some ironic attention. He is a little hand-sculpted Great
White Shark (carcaridon carcarius ). He comes with a water base for him
to terrorize." The figure is limited to 40 pieces and cost $45 each. (STAR SHARK, the PSYCH SHARK, and the SHIT SHARK coming later this
year)
MISS THING BOOTLEG
This is the latest installment in the dwindling BOOTLEG series. Only 9
more in the so called "FINAL ELEVEN" to go. MISS
THING, MONSTERS IN DRAG is kind of a 1950s style Gorilla-Robot
hybrid, but with the soul of a woman. It's a run of 40 pieces and will sell for $35 each.
THE CREATURE: GLO EDITION
The classic color is sold out, but the new version is in glow-in-the-dark. (it doesn't count towards the final eleven) It's not carded, the figure is bagged. This is a 50 piece
edition, a steal for $30 each.
Stitches and Glue sent us photos of their submissions for the APW Custom Toy Contest, which will take place from April 3rd until April 25th. The opening reception takes place on the 3rd...from 6PM until 9PM. The event will happen in Long Island City, NY at the APW Gallery.
Paul from Stitches and Glue did some killer customs for the show. If this is an example of what will be on display, you need to get out to this show.
Nope...you're not at the wrong website. We wanted to let you know that we gave our two cents to ToyCyte's blind box discussion. It's an interesting write up featuring voices from companies, fans, shops, bloggers and artists.
Onell Design has opened up their special Custom Corps
section. "You may get a Lost Sincroid Soldier, any number of strange Govuroms or
a super rare version of Phanost or Sarvos in a mysterious black bag." Each figure will have a hand cast, hand painted head attached to a
customized production PVC body. They will each run $20 and be shipped randomly.
for a show that will include 33 Monsters in 6 matches. KAIJU in 3D will take place at 8PM and feature musical guest Bryan Scary and the Shredding Tears.
The Spring thaw has arrived and that means the return of monster fighting to the large apple. On April 3rd find
yourself watching 33
of the meanest monsters ever assembled in one place duke it out for your entertainment. Also see Earth defender extraordinaire Neo Teppen take on the space menace
Uchuchu for galactic
supremacy. The answers to questions like “Will Hero Intern 08 ever become more than an unpaid assistant?” and “Who will challenge the Furious Furries for tag-team
dominance?” will be
answered as well.
Running from April 4th until May 2nd, Gary Taxali will be having a solo show
next week at Jonathan
LeVine Gallery in NYC. The exhibition, entitled Hindi Love Song, has an opening reception on Saturday, April
4th from 7PM until 9PM. Just under 40 new works consisting of
