Back to the Future Part 2 x Nike Air McFLY 2015 Sneakers

Back to the Future Part 2 x Nike Air McFLY 2015 sneakersAfter my post earlier this month about The Goonies x Puma Disc Blaze sneakers, I was contacted by Mickey Maloof, co-founder of The Official McFLY 2015 Project, to rebuff my comment that The Goonies sneakers were the best 80’s movie tie-in sneakers of 2008. You see The McFLY 2015 Project is a grassroots movement to get the futuristic-looking sneakers seen in the 1989 movie Back to the Future Part 2 made. Evidently they’re pretty persuasive because Nike finally caved in and created these awesome looking sneakers.

Unfortunately, most BttF fans had no shot at these ultra limited edition sneakers, which are already selling for big bucks on the secondary market. While The Official McFLY 2015 Project can’t help you in tracking down the futuristic looking blue hightop sneakers, they are currently holding a contest where 10 lucky winners can win official McFLY 2015 stickers. Just head over to their website at www.mcfly2015.com and find out what the moon at the top page is saying. Send in your answer to info@mcfly2015.com and you could be a winner!

ToyQube Exclusive Ninja MAD*L

This is a little late, but I wanted to talk about it anyway. The 5 inch Ninja MAD*L was originally released as a San Diego Comic-Con 2008 exclusive, but with a few still remaining you can now purchase them at the ToyQube’s online store. This is some great news for MAD fans like The Blot who weren’t able to make it to SDCC, but were still hoping to get our hands on one of these awesome looking figures.

Kidrobot - 8 Inch Ninja Dunny by MAD - White Blood Splattered, Black Chase, Red ChaseMAD released a similarly designed 8” Dunny at the end of last year with three colorways (white blood splattered, black and red), but the black ninja chase was definitely my favorite. So I’m really glad to see MAD adapt his ninja design to his MAD*L platform. Now if only I could get my hands on that limited edition 8” Black Ninja Dunny. The Ninja MAD*L is limited to 500 pieces and retails online for $35.00.

Also recently released was MAD*L Phase 3, the latest series of MAD’s unique line of designer vinyl figures. The Phase 3 set includes three figures, Armybot, Slam and Aidamon. Each Phase 3 MAD*L is 5 inches tall and can be purchased directly from MAD’s ebay store individually for $25.00 or as a set for $75.00. As an added bonus, if you purchase the figures directly from MAD he will sign each figure on the back.
