Custom 20 Inch Modern Hero Dunny by MAD

The Blot’s been dying to get a look at this 20 inch hand painted custom Modern Hero Dunny by MAD ever since he first mentioned it on the Kidrobot forums a few months ago. If I’m not mistaken, for every $50 spent on his online store a customer was given one entry into a drawing for this awesome 20” version of MAD’s Series 4 Dunny.


Modern Hero is The Blot’s favorite MAD character, and whoever won this amazing custom vinyl figure is one lucky collector! I’m still holding out hope there’s a Modern Hero Mad’l in the works to add to the many other toy lines the character has shown up in.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle BATSU Vinyl Figures by NECA

It seems like everyone wants in on the designer vinyl craze! BATSU is the National Entertainment Collectibles Association’s (a.k.a. NECA) entry into the 5-8 inch, reasonably priced designer vinyl toy market. The Blot’s not a huge fan of the platform’s quirky shaped arms and legs, but I do love me some TMNT! This November everyone’s favorite pizza eating mutant turtles, Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael and Michelangelo, will be given the BATSU treatment.



BATSU is NECA’s new highly-stylized line of urban vinyl figurines. Each 5” Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle BATSU is poseable at the neck and shoulders and comes with the weapons unique to that specific character (bo staff, katana, nunchuku and sai). Even without the weapons, you can tell who's who just by looking at their expressions, which capture the Turtles' personalities perfectly, from Donatello's concentration to Michelangelo's goofy grin.



NECA's limited edition TMNT BATSU figures hit stores November, 2009 and will be available at the NECA Amazon storefront and other collectible stores worldwide. Each figure will retail for around $15, and you will be able to purchase a complete set of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle BATSU vinyl figures for somewhere around $50-60.
