Marvel Comics x Stussy Collection Series 1

Marvel Comics x Stussy Collection Series 1 - Wolverine & Doctor Doom T-Shirts

Last month The Blot blogged about Marvel Comics’ upcoming team-up with clothing brand Stussy. Well, the first release of that collaboration comes out this week, and the official line-up of the Marvel Comics x Stussy Clothing Collection Series 1 has finally been revealed! According to the official Stussy x Marvel website, “Stussy and Marvel Comics present a project featuring characters from the Marvel Universe that are transported into the Stussy world.” Whatever that means...is there really a Stussy world?

Series 1 includes 9 different t-shirt designs, which combine vintage Marvel characters with definitive Stussy designs. These styles feature images from rare and collectible comic books and posters, and include Marvel super heroes and villains such as Wolverine, Captain America, Silver Surfer, Punisher, Ghost Rider, Doctor Octopus and Doctor Doom.

Custom Oil Slick Rose Vampire by OsirisOrion

Custom Oil Slick Rose Vampire by OsirisOrion

As you all know, Josh Herbolsheimer’s Rose Vampire has quickly become my favorite vinyl figure. The Super7 Monster Family toy is also a pretty cool platform for customs, as you can tell from this beautiful Oil Slick custom by OsirisOrion! Osiris has been customizing like a mad man lately and each piece is seriously better than the last.

The Blot especially loves seeing how Osiris’s signature Oil Slick paint job has been applied to a number of different figures recently, including a Grasebat, The Destroyer, Buff Monster Minis and The Outsider. What’s great about this particular style is how it accentuates each figure’s unique design, while adding depth and texture. If you don’t believe me, see more here at OsirisOrion’s flickr page.

Ducktales Disney Afternoon Vinylmation 2-Pack - Scrooge McDuck & Launchpad McQuack Vinyl Figures

Ducktales Disney Afternoon Vinylmation 2-Pack - Launchpad McQuack & Scrooge McDuck Vinyl Figures

The 2nd Disney Afternoon Vinylmation 2-pack was released earlier this month, and it features characters from my favorite Disney television series, Ducktales. The Blot still knows every word to the show’s opening theme song by heart! How in the world Ducktales, with its huge cast of characters, has not made a comeback is beyond me. Someone at Disney needs to get on this STAT!

The Ducktales Disney Afternoon Vinylmation 2-pack includes Scrooge McDuck and Launchpad McQuack, retails for $26.95 each, and has a limited edition run size of 1,000 sets. While already on sale at D-Street locations in California and Florida, The Blot has not seen this set show up at DisneyStore.com yet.
