Koalataur the Outkast Custom Vinyl Figure by Huck Gee

Meet Koalataur the Outkast, Huck Gee’s latest hand painted, custom Munny creation. Before you go jumping to the obvious conclusion, Koalataur does not actually have any relation to a Koala. He was born a Liontaur (a.k.a. a wemic, urmahlullu, lion-man), but due to the strange coloration of his fur was labeled an outcast at an early age and banished from his tribe.


Koalataur, being one of the nicer names he was called, stuck, and his legend was born. Stalked for his one of a kind pelt, he is constantly on the move, alone in a land of mistrust, traveling the jungles, rooting for answers to his lonely, confused world.



The Koalataur the Outkast hand crafted vinyl figure goes on sale this Friday, July 24th, at Noon PDT. Each figure is signed, numbered and comes with all of the accessories show above. Huck has created 10 Koalataur the Outkast figures, and will be selling them on his eBay store for $800 each.

Iron Man 2 - First Look at Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow

This week in Entertainment Weekly’s annual San Diego Comic-Con issue the weekly pop culture magazine unveiled the world’s first look at Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff a.k.a. the Black Widow from Iron Man 2. (link) While I prefer the character’s look from the 80’s (short hair and grey jumpsuit), I think the film has done a fantastic job transforming Johansson into the famed Soviet spy. While they didn’t get the hair exactly right, at least they included Black Widow’s trademark wrist-thingies.


Filming of Iron Man 2 wrapped on Saturday, but fans will have to wait until May 7, 2010 to see the Marvel Comics sequel in theaters. (link) IM2 will once again be directed by Jon Favreau and stars Robert Downey, Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle (taking over the role of James “Rhodey” Rhodes originated by Terrence Howard), along with Johansson and Mickey Rourke (as Whiplash).
