Funko never ceases to amaze me with their licensed toys. They continue to release officially licensed Pop! vinyl figures of the hottest properties on TV, movies, comic books and video games. So of course Funko would release an epic line of Adventure Time Pop! Television vinyl figures based on the super popular Cartoon Network animated series. This cartoon has taken over the pop culture landscape, and these vinyl figures will definitely be sought after by the TV show’s faithful audience.

If you’re wondering how the American sofubi kings Super7 ended up collaborating with Funko, the creators of Pop! vinyl figures and Wacky Wobbler bobble heads, all you have to do is look at San Diego Comic-Con. After sharing the same aisle at SDCC for years, Super7 and Funko saw an incredible opportunity to leverage each other's unique business insights into a more strategic partnership. Beginning with the launch of the highly anticipated Alien ReAction Figures, both companies look to establish a firm collaborative footprint in the market with the ReAction Figures toy line.

The Walking Dead “Ezekiel Has a Tiger” T-Shirt by Charlie Adlard

The Walking Dead “Ezekiel Has a Tiger” T-Shirt by Charlie Adlard


Robert Kirkman’s hit comic book series The Walking Dead has a long standing history of introducing interesting and eclectic characters each and every month. One of the long running Image comic book series newest characters is Ezekiel! First introduced in The Walking Dead #108, Ezekiel is the king of the community nicknamed The Kingdom, and as the t-shirt above explains, he has a pet tiger. It’s so shocking, so ridiculous, and well…so awesome! Kirkman is great at creating colorful, off kilter characters and Ezekiel is a perfect example of that. I can’t wait to learn more about King Ezekiel and his Kingdom as we move closer and closer to the upcoming TWD “All Out War” storyline.

The Walking Dead “Ezekiel Has a Tiger” t-shirt by Charlie Adlard is printed on a grey t-shirt and is available in mens sizes S-XXL and women’s sizes S-XXL. Pick one up from your favorite local comic book shop for just $19.99 (XXL tees are $22.99).

Star Wars x Addict T-Shirt Collection

Star Wars x Addict T-Shirt Collection - Vader Sports Label Tee, Stormtrooper Sport Label Tee, R2D2 Sport Label Tee & C3PO Sport Label Tee


UK clothing brand Addict has teamed up with Lucasfilm and Disney to produce a pretty cool, officially licensed line of Star Wars t-shirts featuring Darth Vader, Boba Fett, C-3PO, R2-D2 and Princess Leia. The Star Wars x Addict T-Shirt Collection is based primarily on the original Star Wars trilogy and is made up of a number of limited edition series, including the Addict Mainline Series, Shogun Vector Series and the Mitch Icons Series.

Star Wars x Addict T-Shirt Collection - Vader Arise Tee, Tie Fighter Black Squadron, C2PO Droids Tee & R2D2 Droids Tee

The Blot really loves the simplicity of this collection, with its clean lines and muted color schemes, although most of the designs remind me of previously released material. Some of the designs look like Star Wars versions of professional sports teams’ logos, while the others have the same look and feel as Obey Giant’s now iconic Obama presidential campaign poster. Then there’s the graffiti inspired character designs by Mitchy Bwoy that remind me of a mix of David Flores’ Star Wars tees and the Marc Ecko Cut and Sew Star Wars Collection. While you can definitely see the inspiration behind these designs, I like how Addict was able to make the styles their own.

Star Wars x Addict T-Shirt Collection - Boba Fett Hunter Crest, Leia Tee, Droids Tee, Snow Trooper Tee

The Star Wars x Addict T-Shirt Collection is currently available through the Addict online store in sizes S-XL for £25 each. There are also a variety of crewneck sweatshirts, varsity jackets and hoodies featuring Star Wars college varsity designs for £50-60.
