Kidrobot's Newest Production Dunny: Arlequine 3” Dunny by Koralie

Kidrobot: Arlequine 3 Inch Dunny Vinyl Figure by Koralie

It looks like Kidrobot will be releasing more and more individual 3” Dunnys and The Blot loves it. First came Birro the Clown by Chauskoskis and now meet Arlequine by Koralie! The quality of these designs has been top notch, and it’s great that artists like Chauskoskis and Koralie get the spotlight all to themselves. All I want to know now is who’s next!?!

Star of the show, the happy acrobat performs for the crowd. A servant of laughs and those who adore her, Arlequine hides behind a black mask and red painted lips. A fabric collar frames her face and dwarfs her 3 inch frame. Holding a blue balloon, she stands coyly, waiting for the curtain to fall.

The Arlequine 3” Dunny by Koralie debuts April 12th and has a limited edition run size of just 1,500 figures. Each figure retails for $14.95, and is available exclusively at Kidrobot retail stores. I guess this means no online sales? That’s a serious bummer for most, but thankfully I’ll be traveling back to Las Vegas in late April and will most definitely be hitting up the Kidrobot at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

The Avengers LEGO Edition Movie Poster


The official twitter account for this summer’s The Avengers tweeted a picture of this amazing LEGO version of the film’s final theatrical one sheet movie poster. It is the exact same poster as the one seen here, but all of the characters have been replaced with their LEGO mini figure counterparts. Seriously, how great is this!?! According to Twitter, this Avengers movie poster in LEGO form will be available in select movie theaters on May 4th (while supplies last). Sadly that’s not really all that helpful, but it’s all we got! Good luck hunting one down…

Marvel's The Avengers assemble in theaters this summer on May 4, 2012.

KFHC Exclusive Kentucky Bluegrass Ugly Unicorn by Rampage Toys

KFHC Exclusive Kentucky Bluegrass Ugly Unicorn Vinyl Figure by Rampage Toys

I know The Blot probably says this a lot, but I have really been looking forward to the release of the KFHC x Rampage Toys Kentucky Bluegrass Ugly Unicorn. This particular shade of blue was custom a custom color designed by Monster Worship for 2010’s Kentucky Bluegrass Greasebat, which still ranks as my favorite RFGB. I’ve come to love this color of Japanese vinyl and got really excited when I learned KFHC and Rampage Toys were working with Monster Worship to recreate the color for this release (making it just the 2nd figure to ever feature this unique shade of blue).

The Muppets Pop! Vinyl Figures by Funko

The Muppets Pop! Series 1 by Funko - Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear & Gonzo Vinyl Figures

The most anticipated Pop! release of 2012 is almost upon us! Funko is releasing an all new line of The Muppets Pop! vinyl figures this summer and they look awesome! Actually, there’s something about Kermit’s head that looks a little off but the rest of the figures look perfect. I just hope they continue this line so I can collect all of the Electric Mayhem. The Muppets Pop! Series 1 includes Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, Animal, Dr. Teeth, Mahna Mahna and Snowth.

The Muppets Pop! Series 1 by Funko - Animal, Dr. Teeth, Mahna Mahna & Snowth Vinyl Figures

Mahna Mahna and Snowth were definitely a surprise inclusion into Series 1, but I know diehard Muppet fans will love getting their hands on these two underappreciated characters. Plus the rarity of Mahna Mahna and Snowth toys should make these highly sought after. Each The Muppets Pop! vinyl figure stands 3.75", features one point of articulation and comes packaged in a full color displayable window box. While these toys are not expected to hit store shelves until July 2012, you can pre-order them now from Entertainment Earth here for $9.99 each.

“20,000 Leagues Under The Sea” Disney Screen Print by Ken Taylor

Mondo x Sideshow Collectibles “20,000 Leagues Under The Sea” Disney Screen Print by Ken Taylor

Mondo and Sideshow Collectibles have teamed up once again to release an all new Disney screen print today, 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea by Ken Taylor. I love this screen print by Ken Taylor because of the old school movie poster vibe it gives off. The imagery this movie provided was incredible and Ken really nailed it. This might just be my favorite print Ken’s ever created! It’s also worth noting that this is the first Mondo screen print for a live action Disney movie. For those of you not familiar with the 1954 live action movie this print is based on, it starred Kirk Douglas as Ned Land, James Mason as Captain Nemo, Paul Lukas as Professor Pierre Aronnax and Peter Lorre as Conseil.

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea” by Ken Taylor is a 36”x24” hand numbered screen print, and has a limited edition run size of 390 pieces. The print will retail for $50 and go on sale at a random time on today, Friday, March 30th, at the Mondo online store.
