Sons of Anarchy “SAMCRO T-Shirt” Variant Jax Action Figure by Mezco Toyz

Mezco Toyz has announced a new variant figure in its popular line of Sons of Anarchy 6” action figures! Its newest release is the “SAMCRO T-Shirt” Jax figure, which features the SAMCRO president in a blue club short sleeve t-shirt based on Charlie Hunnam’s look in the hit FX television show. Nothing too fancy with this variant, but there’s really only so much you can do with the standard Jax Teller sculpt. This SOA action figure features 5 points of articulation (neck, arms and wrists), a knife accessory that fits into the sheath on his waist, and comes packaged in a full color, collector-friendly blister package. The knife accessory can also be held in Jax’ hand for a menacing pose that shows he means business!

The Sons of Anarchy “SAMCRO Blue T-Shirt” Variant Jax Teller Action Figure by Mezco Toyz is not scheduled to hit stores until June 2015, but you can pre-order it now from Entertainment Earth for $15.99 here.

“Sons of a Bakery” Sons of Anarchy Hoodies by Johnny Cupcakes

Ok these aren’t exactly t-shirts, but these Sons of Anarchy inspired hoodies from Johnny Cupcakes are just too awesome not to blog about. I just wish they’d been produced as t-shirts as well! This SAMCRO Reaper homage is spot on, and I love the use of red in a design that’s typically black and white. Doesn’t that cupcake look adorable in the middle of such a seriously deadly design? The patches on the front of the hoodie are also a nice additional touch. I’m especially digging the Spade patch on the chest.

Released just in time for the season premiere of Sons of Anarchy’s seventh and final season, the “Sons of a Bakery” Johnny Cupcakes hooded zip-up sweatshirt comes in both “East Coast” and “West Coast” editions. This way you can rep your favorite Johnny Cupcakes retail location! This unisex design (available in sizes XS-XXL) is currently available for purchase at the Johnny Cupcakes online store for $60 each.

Sons of Anarchy 6” Action Figures Wave 2 by Mezco Toyz - Gemma & Opie

Mezco Toyz is set to release a second wave of their popular Sons of Anarchy action figures, and The Blot is pumped about it! I just wish they’d release more than two characters at a time. It’s hard to build the SAMCRO motorcycle club with just four figures. Sons of Anarchy Wave 2 features 6” posable action figures of Katey Segal’s Gemma Teller Morrow, the Queen of Charming, and Ryan Hurst’s Opie Winston, Jax’ best friend from childhood. Opie features 5 points of articulation (neck, arms and wrists), while Gemma features 2 points of articulation. Both figures include character specific accessories and comes packaged in a full color, collector-friendly blister package.

There are currently two versions of each figure available for purchase. The standard Gemma figure includes an episode specific skateboard, perfect for whacking anyone who gets in her way. The Entertainment Earth Exclusive Blood Splattered Gemma action figure features an alternative paint scheme, and includes a barbecue knife that she used to kill off a very important SOW character. The standard Opie figure wears his SAMCRO leather vest, club patches, a wallet chain and a knife, while the Entertainment Earth Exclusive Opie action figure comes sporting a knit cap.

The Sons of Anarchy Wave 2 Action Figures by Mezco Toyz are not scheduled to hit stores until March 2015, but you can pre-order all four figures from Entertainment Earth here. The standard edition SoA figures retail for $15.99, while the variant EE exclusive figures retail for $19.99.

Sons of Anarchy x Melin “The Reaper” Hat signed by Kurt Sutter

This is one of the crazier officially licensed television memorabilia The Blot’s ever seen! FX’ Sons of Anarchy has teamed up with Melin to release “The Reaper” adjustable hat. This high end hat is limited to just 12 pieces, comes individually numbered, and signed by Kurt Sutter (aka “Otto”), the creator of Sons of Anarchy. Only 10 Sons of Anarchy x Melin “The Reaper” hats are available for purchase at the FX online store for a whopping $2,500. Yes, you read that right…two thousand five hundred dollars for an autographed hat. But hey, it comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and is packaged in a pretty sweet displayable hat box! If you buy one, I better see pics of you wearing “The Reaper”.

Melin is known for their unique luxurious designer snapbacks and headwear, so you know every aspect of “The Reaper” is going to be top notch! Comprised of Spanish lamb skin for the front panels and 130's Italian tuxedo wool for the rear panels of the crown, “The Reaper” features a black steel embossed SOA reaper badge on its front panel. The left side panel features a 7/8 inch screaming skull trim and the rear closure features a SoA “Men of Mayhem” top rocker patch made of red lamb skin leather with a black silk embroidered lettering.

Like all Melin headwear, it is lined with a proprietary moisture wicking performance fabric printed with “Fear the Reaper” as a further tribute to show’s highly anticipated seventh and final season. It also features a quilted sweatband for comfort and breathability. Lastly, a hidden "besom" stash pocket inside the lining, custom molded eyelets and custom button backing.

NYCC 14 Exclusive Sons of Anarchy Prison Variant Jax & Clay Action Figures by Mezco Toyz

Mezco Toyz recently announced their New York Comic Con 2014 exclusives, which includes not one but two awesome Sons of Anarchy 6” action figures! First up is the limited edition Sons of Anarchy Blue Prison Variant Jax Teller figure, which represents one of his numerous prison stays. Episode accurate, Jax looks as though he walked right out of an episode of Sons of Anarchy and into your toy collection. Along with Blue Prison Jumpsuit Jax is the NYCC 2014 Exclusive Orange Prison Jupsuit Clay Morrow. Both figures feature 5 points of articulation (neck, shoulders, wrists), and are ready to kick some serious a$$!

Each New York Comic Con 2014 Exclusive Sons of Anarchy action figure comes packaged in a collector friendly blistercard and retails for $30 each at the Mezco Toyz NYCC booth #1855. For those of us unable to attend NY Comic Con this year, a select number of figures are available for pre-order now at the Mezco Toyz online store. Sons of Anarchy Season 7 premieres tonight, September 9th, on FX at 10/9c.

Sons of Anarchy: The Final Season Posters

The Blot can’t believe it. Tonight’s the season premiere of Sons of Anarchy’s seventh and final season. I’ve been a diehard fan of the series since it first premiered back in 2008, and I honestly have no idea where this show is going. All of the “end games” I saw for Jax and the SoA went out the door with last season’s shocking deaths. Clearly there’s still a lot of dangling threads, but I have a feeling Kurt Sutter has even more terrible things in store for SAMCRO than I could ever imagine. Clearly from these one sheet television posters there’s also a lot of death in store for Sons of Anarchy, I just hope that doesn’t include Juice!

Sons of Anarchy Season 7 premieres tonight, September 9th, on FX at 10/9c.

“Anarchtea” Sons of Anarchy T-Shirt By Edward Teabelly

Our friend across the pond Edward Teabelly has just released an awesome new collection of t-shirts! While The Blot will feature all of the new designs next week, I had to give a little love right away to my favorite new tea-shirt in the collection, “Anarchtea.” Inspired by the hit FX television show Sons of Anarchy, “Anarchtea” turns SAMCRO’s signature Reaper logo on its head by incorporating the indie clothing brand’s mascot Edward Teabelly and a smoking hot pot of tea into the design. What a brilliant idea, right!?!

Sons of Anarchy 6” Action Figures by Mezco Toyz

Mezco Toyz has unleashed the Sons of Anarchy motorcycle club upon the toy world with this awesome new line of action figures based on the popular FX TV show!

Sons of Anarchy Bobble Heads by Mezco Toyz

Mezco Toyz recently announced they had acquired the Sons of Anarchy license, and would soon be releasing a new line of SoA bobble heads based on the cast of the hit FX television show. The Blot loves Sons of Anarchy, so you know I’m excited about all these new toys coming out based on the series!

Sons of Anarchy Pop! TV Vinyl Figures by Funko

Sons of Anarchy, one of The Blot’s all time favorite television shows, is getting the Pop! treatment by our friends at Funko! Is it me or does Funko have more licenses than every other toy company? They are taking over modern pop culture! The Sons of Anarchy Pop! Television Series is a who’s who of SAMCRO, and includes Jax Teller, Clay Morrow, Gemma Morrow and Opie Winston. Here’s hoping we get a Series 2 of Charming’s toughest motorcycle featuring Tig, Juice, Bobby, Chibs and Happy.

Each Sons of Anarchy Pop! Television vinyl figure stands 3.75” tall, features one point of articulation and comes packaged in a full color displayable window box. These figures aren't expected to hit store shelves until January 2014, but you can pre-order them now from Entertainment Earth for $9.99 each here.

Sons of Anarchy Season 5 Teaser Poster

We’re just a few weeks away from the season premiere of Sons of Anarchy’s fifth season, and The Blot can’t wait! Since the show’s first episode on FX, SoA quickly became not only one of my favorite shows on television but one of the few shows I had to watch live. While the first season may have started slow, the Sons of Anarchy is one of those rare shows that has consistently gotten better each and every year.

I think one of the things I love about it the most is how I never know what’s going to happen next. Most shows these days have become so predictable, while SoA continues to go out on a limb and put their characters in unwinnable (and unbelievable) situations. SAMCRO may not always come out on top, but they always seem to find a way out of even the stickiest of situations. Only question now is how will Jax and Clay continue to co-exist now that all of last season’s indiscretions have come to light!?! I for one can’t wait to find out!

Sons of Anarchy Season 5 premieres on Tuesday, September 11th, at 10/9c on FX.

“As Seen On TV” Solo Custom Art Show by Task One - Sons of Anarchy & Breaking Bad

This summer Task One is having a solo art exhibit at Plastic Chapel in Denver entitled “As Seen On TV”, which will feature custom figures of different characters from his favorite TV shows. Is that one of the coolest custom show themes you’ve ever heard of or what!?! It doesn’t hurt that The Blot and Task One seem to like all the same shows. How else do you explain that the first two figures from the show to be revealed are characters from two of my all time favorite TV shows?

First up is an amazingly accurate custom Munny of Clay Morrow (portrayed by Ron Pearlman) from FX’s Sons of Anarchy. The second figure is even better! It’s a custom Munny of Bryan Cranston’s Walter White from the hit AMC television show Breaking Bad. Task One set the bar super high for his “As Seen On TV” show with these two figures. What else could he possibly do to top these? Hopefully we’ll find out soon!

Task One’s solo custom show “As Seen On TV” takes place at Plastic Chapel on Saturday, June 9th, in Denver Colorado.

Sons of Anarchy Screen Print by Phantom City Creative

Sons of Anarchy, one of The Blot’s all time favorite shows, is finally getting the screen print treatment courtesy of Gallery1988 and Phantom City Creative! PaleyFest is taking place as I type this in LA and once again the organization asked G1988 to create limited edition screen prints for each night of the event. You see, every year the Paley Center For Media in Los Angeles produces almost two weeks of events where the cast and crew of your favorite television shows get together to talk about the show and sometimes even premiere new episodes.

There were seven screen prints created this year, but hands down my favorite is this awesome SOA print by Phantom City Creative. It was Sons of Anarchy’s turn last night at PalyFest and Gallery1988 dropped these awesome prints featuring the show’s entire cast. The print has a limited edition run size of 300 pieces and will retail for $35 each. Any remaining prints from last night’s show will go on sale sometime today at Gallery1988's online store.

Sons of Anarchy Season 4 Television Poster

Since LOST went off the air two shows have been battling for the title of The Blot’s favorite TV show, Breaking Bad and Sons of Anarchy. Both are riveting hour long cable dramas that expose the seedy underbelly of America and show what a person is capable of when it comes to protecting/providing for one’s family. While both shows are phenomenal, there is a downside…you have to wait freaking forever between seasons! For some reason both AMC and FX think it’s a good idea to make its fan base wait at least one full year before airing the next season of hits hit television shows. I understand it must make good business sense (otherwise the networks wouldn’t do it), but doesn’t the long layoffs cause a greater than normal attrition in viewership?

Regardless, Sons of Anarchy returns tonight, Tuesday, September 6th, for its fourth season and The Blot is so freaking pumped! When last we saw SAMCRO (the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club, Redwood Original), the crew was being sentenced to two years in jail. This season begins with SAMCRO fresh out of jail and back into Charming. Upon their arrival, they encounter new law enforcement and head right back to their old law breaking ways. Evidently there are some great teaser videos for S4 upon the SOA official website, but I’ve tried to stay away from as many spoilers as possible. I want this season to as much of a surprise as possible. However, I have heard Charlie Hunnam (“Jax”) has sent his female fans into a tizzy with his new hair style. But that’s one aspect of the show The Blot could care less!

Sons of Anarchy Season 4 airs Tuesday nights at 10/9c on FX.

Sons of Anarchy Season 3 Television Poster

Sons of Anarchy, one of The Blot’s favorite TV shows, returns tonight, Tuesday, September 7th, for an all new season! SOA Season 2 was riveting appointment television, and I’m hoping Season 3 continues that upward trend. There were some mighty big cliffhangers at the end of last season and needless to say, SAMCRO is looking for some revenge.


How and why I won’t spoil here, but even if you’ve never seen an episode of Sons of Anarchy tune in tonight…you definitely won’t be disappointed! I describe the show as The Sopranos on motorcycles, which is about as high of praise as I can give a TV show about family and organized crime.

Sons of Anarchy stars Charlie Hunnam, Ron Perlman, and Katey Sagal, and airs Tuesday nights on FX at 10/9c.
