Kidrobot 19: KidRiot Vinyl Figure by MAD

Kidrobot 19: KidRiot Vinyl Figure by MAD

Behave yourself, KidRiot is watching! Take a good look at Kidrobot’s iconic figure as envisioned by Kansas City artist MAD, and show the man the proper respect…or pay the price. MAD’s KidRiot is 8 solid inches of crowd-controlling vinyl, complete with removable tactical helmet and shield, glazed strawberry donut, and a skull-crushing baton (nicknamed “The Judge” for obvious reasons).

The Blot’s been waiting for this figure’s release for almost a year, and it’s definitely been well worth the wait! The details on this Kidrobot mascot figure look topnotch and I love all of KidRiot’s accessories, especially his glazed donut! KidRiot rules the mean streets with an iron fist, but don’t let fear hold you back because KidRiot will be in limited supply! Only 1,500 were produced and with a retail price of $60 you know these will sell quickly. Kidrobot 19: KidRiot by MAD goes on sale May 12 at all Kidrobot stores, kidrobot.com and specialty retailers.

To coincide with the release of the Kidrobot 19: KidRiot vinyl figure, MAD will be going on a three city signing tour (like this figure needs any additional promotion). This cross-country mission will infiltrate Kidrobot Los Angeles on Thursday, May 12th, San Francisco on Friday, May 13th, and Miami on Saturday, May 14th. All three events will take place from 6-8pm, but get there early because you know MAD will pack the house!

SDCC 2011 Exclusive Dharma Polar Bear LOST Bobble Head

San Diego Comic-Con 2011 Entertainment Earth Exclusive LOST Dharma Initiative Polar Bear Bobble Head by Bif Bang Pow!

Yesterday, Entertainment Earth announced Bif Bang Pow!’s San Diego Comic-Con 2011 Exclusive LOST Bobble Head will be the Dharma Polar! How crazy is that!?! Deftly crafted out of resin, this sensational Dharma Polar Bear bobble head stands 5.5” long x 4.25” tall x 2 .5” wide, and features superb show accurate details. Wearing a Dharma Initiative collar, this “killer” bobble head stands ready to strike on a base featuring a cage wall and a fish biscuit. I mean come on, the fish biscuit alone makes this a can’t miss SDCC exclusive!

It’s hard to believe it’s been 2 whole years since Bif Bang Pow! released its very first LOST bobble head at San Diego Comic-Con 2009. Where has the time gone!?! Sadly, this will be the toy company’s 12th and final LOST bobble head. I was really bummed to learn this will be the company’s last LOST release, but at least the line is going out with a bang! It’ll be interesting to see if anyone else picks up the show’s license.

If you’re planning to attend SDCC 2011, be sure to stop by the Entertainment Earth booth to pick up the LOST Dharma Initiative Polar Bear Bobble Head by Bif Bang Pow! For the rest of us, you can pre-order one here from EntertainmentEarth.com for $14.99. The resin figure won’t ship until August 2011, but it’ll definitely be worth the wait.
