G.I. Yo! Supervillain Suckpegs by Suckadelic

Sucklord, the king of bootleg toys, has released a new three piece set of G.I. Joe inspired Suckpegs vinyl figures, entitled G.I. Yo!, and I must have them! Sucklord’s newest bootleg toys are a protest/tribute to the so bad, it’s good live action G.I. Joe adaptation, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, and include Suckpeg versions of The Baroness, Cobra Commander and Destro.


Thankfully, Sucklord’s G.I. Yo! Suckpegs are way more faithful to the G.I. Joe cartoons/comic books/action figures that we all grew up with than the movie is. The three figure G.I. Yo! Supervillain Suckpegs set includes Duchess, Corporal Slither and Pestro, and can be purchased directly from Suckadelic here at the official Suckadelic online store. There were only 40 of these limited edition G.I. Yo! Suckpegs sets created, and each set retails for $100 each.

Blammoids! Series 2 by DC Direct

We’ve known for a while now what characters were going to be included in DC Direct’s second wave of Blammoids! vinyl figures, but now we have a release date. Blammoids! Series 2 will go on sale April 7, 2010….just a measly 8 months away. Blammoids! Series 2 includes chunky/blocky versions of some of DC Comics’ greatest heroes and villain, including Superman, Lex Luthor, Batgirl, Darkseid, Plastic Man and The Creeper.


It’s kind of an anticlimactic announcement when you realize Series 1 isn’t out yet and Series 2 isn’t being released for a very long time. I just assumed they’d be hitting store shelves sometime soon since they had the first four waves of Blammoids! figures on display at SDCC (check them out here).


They may not be coming out for a while, but it hasn’t dampened my anticipation for these faux designer vinyl figures. I especially love The Creeper, whose crazy smile takes up his entire face! And I don’t know what it is about Superman’s hair, maybe it’s the crazy blue streak in it, but it too looks pretty cool.


Each Blammoids! vinyl figure is packaged on a blister card, measures approximately 2.5" to 4" tall and has three points of articulation.
