Kidrobot - Reindeer Dunny by Chuckboy

Kidrobot’s 4th annual holiday 3 inch Dunny comes out today, and to be honest The Blot is not really feeling this year’s figure. Designed by Chuckboy, the 3” doe-eyed deviant Reindeer Dunny rewards nice kids with his removable bull whip and vinyl antlers. While the Dunny its self is just ok, the figure's accessories are awesome. What could have made this figure so much cooler is if the Reindeer had been flocked. Who wouldn’t want a cuddly, furry Reindeer to add to their Dunny collection!?!


The Reindeer Dunny is blind boxed and there are two variant figures for those of us lucky enough to find them. One of the chase figures has been confirmed to be a lighter colored Reindeer that comes with a spiked paddle that reads Santa backwards instead of the common figure’s bull whip. No news yet on the design of the extremely rare 3rd Reindeer chase figure.


Each 3 inch Reindeer Dunny blind box retails for $9.95 and you can purchase one directly from Kidrobot’s online store here.

Kidrobot - Santa Peecol by eBoy

Last week Kidrobot released the very first holiday themed Peecol. Designed by eBoy, the Santa Peecol doesn’t care if you’ve been naughty or nice. Everyone better hide their toys and cookies and lock down the chimney when this Santa comes to town because he’s looking to start some trouble and steal some holiday cheer.


What I really want to know is how long Santa has been a fan of the X-Men? Or maybe it's eBoy that's a fan of Marvel Comics' preeminent team. Either way, there’s no other explanation The Blot could come up with as to why eBoy would so blatantly “model” the symbol on Santa’s chest after X-Force’s fearless leader Jamie Madrox's (a.k.a. the Multiple Man) signature logo.

Multiple Man has been sporting his unique chest emblem for decades (as you can see in the pictures here) and it look remarkably like the pattern on Santa’s red coat. Maybe there’s more to the story here…maybe Santa is really just one of Madrox’s dupes. That would explain how jolly old Saint Nick can be so many places at once. All Madrox would have to do is send out an army of duplicates every Christmas Eve to deliver presents to all the little boys and little girls across the globe.


The Santa Peecol is 3.5 inches tall and retails for $9.95. You can purchase this holiday Peecol directly from Kidrobot here.

Huck Gee’s New Colonial Life Series - Sgt. Vasquez Custom Munny Vinyl Figure

On Friday, November 21st Huck Gee is releasing his first hand painted custom vinyl figure from a brand new world. Huck’s new series is entitled Colonial Life and the first figure is one of UTCMC’s finest, Sergeant Vasquez the leader of the infamous ZOR Dread Squad. These guys (and gals) are the best of the best, the anything goes, whatever it takes, collateral damage be damned United Terran Colonies clean up crew.


This figure is awesome and I’m glad to see some new designs from Huck. While I think his Gold Life and Jungle Life series are great, Colonial Life is right up my alley. It has a very futuristic sci-fi feel to it and reminds me a lot of the military forces from movies such as Aliens and Universal Soldier. I love everything about Sergeant Vasquez, including his armor/backpack, weapons and tattoos. I think his “Game Over” tattoos on the back of his hands are an especially nice touch.


Huck has created 10 handmade Sgt. Vasquez Munnys and will be putting them up for sale on his ebay store at Noon PST on Friday, November 21, 2008. Each Munny is signed and numbered (on breast plate and shoulder pad) and comes with all of the accessories show in the pictures above. Each figure will have a sale price of $750.
