The Green Hornet Teaser Movie Poster

Below is the new one sheet teaser movie poster for the upcoming Green Hornet feature film. Let’s be honest, this movie is going to suck. You know it, I know it, the whole world knows it! So why is The Blot still blogging about The Green Hornet? Well, because a fanboy can dream can’t he!?! I’d love nothing more than for this film to turn into a succeed franchise for Seth Rogen, but I’ve got very little faith that’s actually going to happen. What do you all think?

The Green Hornet One Sheet Teaser Movie Poster

The Green Hornet, directed by Michel Gondry, will premiere in theaters on January 14, 2011.

Aziz Ansari Dangerously Delicious Tour Screen Prints by Invisible Creature

Last Saturday night The Blot hit up Houston’s House of Blues to see Aziz Ansari, one of my favorite comedians, perform. His stand-up routine is hilarious, and if you haven’t heard his comedy album Intimate Moments For A Sensual Evening go buy it now! I had been looking forward to this show for months, and Aziz definitely didn’t disappoint. But what really surprised me about the show was to learn Aziz was releasing a different screen print for each stop on his Dangerously Delicious Tour.

“Stick ‘Em Up” Aziz Ansari Dangerously Delicious Tour - 10.16.10 - House of Blues, Houston

While lots of bands have a different gig poster for each tour stop, I’ve never heard of a comedian doing something like this. They might have one screenprint for the whole tour, but to commission a different poster for each show shows Aziz’ love of rock poster art. Best of all, the Houston poster was made by the very talented artists at Invisible Creature. Invisible Creature was commissioned to create 4 posters for Aziz' tour stops in New York, DC, Houston and Austin, and they all turned out pretty great. Best of all, all posters purchased at the show came signed by Aziz (see photo above)!

“Walking With Dinosaurs” Aziz Ansari Dangerously Delicious Tour - 9.16.10 - Town Hall, New York City

“Burger & Fries” Aziz Ansari Dangerously Delicious Tour - 9.17.10 - Warner Theatre, Washington, DC

All four Aziz Ansari Dangerously Delicious Tour screen prints by Invisible Creature are currently available for purchase from the Invisible Creature online store for $20 each.  And keep your eyes peeled for more amazing releases from Invisible Creature, including their very first vinyl figure from Super7! It’ll be produced as part of Super7’s Monster Family toy line.

Super7 Monster Family Halloween Glass Set

It’s Super7’s favorite time of year once again! Halloween, the spookiest holiday of them all, brings all of the Monster Family’s creepy creatures out into the night. In honor of this Halloween, Super7 presents a set of glasses to enjoy a tasty beverage while waiting for the monster masses to knock at the door.

Super7 Monster Family Halloween 4 Glass Set featuring Steven the Bat, Garuru, Rose Vampire & Big Sal

The Super7 Monster Family Halloween Glass Set includes four glasses, each featuring a different Monster Family member (Steven the Bat, Garuru, Rose Vampire & Big Sal). The artwork on these glasses is top notch, and the Rose Vampire glass will definitely be joining The Blot’s collection!

Each glass can be purchased individually for $10 or you can purchase all four glasses as a set for $35. While an official release date is currently unknown, you can expect these spooky glasses to go on sale at Super7Store.com sometime soon.

Barneyism of the Week - New Is Always Better

Ted, I know you love crappy old stuff no one cares about,
but I’m gonna give you four words to live by:
New. Is. Always. Better.

“New is always better?” - Ted

You know who‘s a million times hotter than the hottest girl I’ve ever slept with?
Her ok looking friend I haven’t seen naked.
Why?
Because, new is always better.

“And this theory applies to everything?” - Ted

Everything.

“So, those new Star Wars movies, those are better than the old ones?” - Ted

Yeah, the first three barely mentioned the intricacies of intergalactic trade law.

“Then when you’re at a Guns N’ Roses concert you’re like,
'Yeah, yeah, Paradise City whatever, when are they going to rock me some Chinese Democracy?'" - Ted

Axl’s really matured as a song writer Ted.

Togo Monroe 8 Inch Dunny by ilovedust Teaser Images

Kidrobot - Togo Monroe 8 Inch Dunny by ILOVEDUST Teaser Image

It looks like photos of Kidrobot’s next 8 inch Dunny have already leaked, and it’s been confirmed the figure was designed by British design boutique ILOVEDUST! Sadly, other than the figure’s name, Togo Monroe, nothing else is really known about this upcoming 8” Dunny. Is this black and white figure possibly a continuation of KR’s 2-Tone 3” Series? I guess only time will tell!

Expect more information on ILOVEDUST’s Togo Monroe 8 Inch Dunny from The Blot Says… once Kidrobot releases the official details.

Kidrobot x The Simpsons Mini Series 2

Kidrobot x The Simpsons Mini Figure Series 2

Matt Groening and Kidrobot join forces once again to embiggen your vinyl collection with The Simpsons Mini Figure Series 2! This new 25 character series features some of Springfield’s most notable citizens including extended family members and lovable barflies, as well as alternate versions of your favorite nuclear family.

Kidrobot x The Simpsons Mini Series 2 Packaging

Fans have been clamoring for a second series pretty much since Series 1 came out, so I know people must be really excited about this news. I think it’s cool we’re getting a “Treehouse of Horror” Zombie version of the Simpsons clan, but did we also need a Mariachi version of Homer and the fam? That means 10 of the 25 figures in Series 2 are made up of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie. I think they could have found at least 5 more never before used characters to include in Series 2, don't you?

Kidrobot x The Simpsons Mini Series 2 Vinyl Figures

Each Kidrobot x The Simpsons Mini Series 2 blind box will retail $9.95 and will be available for purchase at Kidrobot stores, Kidrobot.com and select retailers worldwide starting October 28th. And make sure to keep your eyes peeled for two top secret mystery chase figures!
