Munky King presents the Black in White Vinyl Figure by Luke Chueh

After years of prototypes and teases, Munky King is finally brining Luke Chueh’s highly anticipated Black in White vinyl figure to San Diego Comic-Con 2010! Based on the original painting of the same name, Black in White is an 8” vinyl figure sculpted by Dave Pressler dressed in a furry bunny suit.


2 years in the making, Luke Chueh’s Black in White figure comes with an extra fur head that you can swap out with the bare one and a really sharp knife. This awesome looking figure will make its debut at SDCC 2010, with any remaining Black in White figures made available online after the Con.

Justice League of America presents Starro the Conqueror Set & SDCC 2010 Exclusive Starro Spores Bonus Pack

This special set from Mattel commemorates the 75th Anniversary of DC Comics. The Starro pack re-creates one of the most famous DC covers of all time, the cover of Brave and the Bold Issue #28, which just so happens to be the first appearance of the Justice League and Starro the Conqueror.


The Justice League of America presents Starro the Conqueror Set includes all five JLA members featured on the cover (Martian Manhunter, The Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern & Aquaman) as highly articulated action figures in the same scale as the DC Universe Infinite Heroes toy line, and a giant, bendy Starro the Conqueror. What’s even cooler is the packaging for this set features lights and sounds with the voice of Kevin Conroy, TV's animated Batman, describing the characters and events seen on the cover. This set will go on sale after San Diego Comic-Con at MattyCollector.com for $50.


As an added bonus for those of you attending SDCC 2010, Mattel will be including a poly bag of four Starro Spores as a free gift with the purchase of the Justice League of America presents Starro the Conqueror Set (while supplies last). What’s weird about these Comic-Con exclusive Starro Spores is that they are compatible with Mattel’s line of 6" DC Universe Classics action figures and not the 3 3/4" DC Universe Infinite Heroes action figures included in the Starro Set. Anyone else think it is bizarre Mattel didn't make the Spores fit the figures they come with!?!

SDCC 2010 Exclusive MOTU Orko Action Figure

Mattel will be releasing two versions of its Masters of the Universe Classics Orko action figure, a San Diego Comic-Con 2010 Exclusive version with color-change feature and a standard version without the color-change feature. What’s really weird about this release is both versions come with a bonus fully articulated Prince Adam figure! This has to be considered one of the weirdest “accessories” ever produced, but at least this way collectors will end up getting 2 action figures for the price of one!


Orko includes a magic wand, stand, magic book and Prince Adam action figure. Prince Adam comes complete with both angry and smirk heads, a purple Power Sword, and half of a purple Power Sword. Doesn’t that sound like a ton of stuff all for just $25? The SDCC Exclusive Orko also changes color in warm water. Everything except his face and the "O" on his chest changes to clear once Orko takes a bath. His magic book also has a color-change sticker that reveals the SDCC logo.


After Comic-Con, a standard version of Orko without color-change features will go on sale at MattyCollector.com and will retail for $25 as well. This version of the figure will be identical to the one described above, except it does not have color-change features.

Mystery Chase James “Rhodey” Rhodes in the Iron Man Mark II Armor CosBaby by Hot Toys

While playing around on eBay this past weekend The Blot finally caught a glimpse of the Iron Man 2 CosBaby Series mystery chase figure! The secret is out, and it’s a James “Rhodey” Rhodes in the Iron Man Mark II Armor with a flippable mask. I honestly had no idea who Hot Toys was going to choose for the Iron Man 2 mystery chase, and I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised.


Each Iron Man 2 CosBaby stands 3 inches tall, comes packaged on a 4-color blister card and retails for around $10.

Disney x Medicom Pinocchio & Jiminy Cricket Vinyl Figures by Kaws

According to Highsnobiety.com, there is a new Kaws figure in the works and it features two of Disney’s more popular characters, Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket! Produced by Medicom, these vinyl figures of the wooden puppet who would become a real boy and his insect conscience look amazing! And while some might not like the Kaws-ification of such iconic figures, I kind of like the added details of Kaws’ signature skull head and crosses.


According to the Highsnobiety.com article, “We get a first look at the Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket toys by American artist Kaws. The two toys were shown as part of a show book; as part of the Kaws museum exhibition, which started today at The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum. At this time it is not clear if this toy is being released but it does show a listing of 2010 and having been produced by Medicom Toy Co. / Disney. It is also listed as from the Collection of Artist.” (link)

LTD Tee - Pink Cranium T-Shirt & Art Print by Iban Brizuela

For LTD Tee’s fifth release the clothing company turned in house for inspiration. LTD Tee’s intern Iban Brizuela, who came up with the “Pink Cranium” design, finds inspiration from people deported from reality. According to the releases’ description, Brizuela’s art is often dark and comical with a twist of obscenity that you can trust…and The Blot thinks that explains a lot!


As always with LTD Tee, the “Pink Cranium” box set will be available for one week only, exclusively at www.ltdtee.net. From June 28th through July 4th, fans can purchase the “Pink Cranium” box set by Iban Brizuela. Each box set includes a screen printed t-shirt, an 8”x10” art print and a LTD Tee sticker pack all packaged in a custom screen printed box.

While the “Pink Cranium” box set retails for $26.99, readers of The Blot Says… can use the discount code “blotsays” for 15% off!

Astro-Zombies Exclusive Clear Blue Tick Action Figure by Shocker Toys

So apparently there is an uber-rare fourth The Tick Indie Spotlight action figure from Shocker Toys that not many fans know about. It is a clear blue version of The Tick, which can be purchased exclusively from the Albuquerque comic books store Astro-Zombies. I’m not sure if there is any type of significance to this clear blue colorway, but the transparent Tick action figure does look pretty cool.


The Astro-Zombies Exclusive Clear Blue The Tick action figure by Shocker Toys is limited to just 500 figures and can be purchased from the Astro-Zombies online store here for $29.99.

Disney x Medicom Alice in Wonderland 100% Kubrick & Be@rbrick Set 2

The Blot has no idea why Medicom and Disney have decided to release a second Alice in Wonderland 100% Kubrick & Be@rbrick set, especially since it won’t be released until December 2010 (well after the release of the film on DVD/Bluray). Either way, I’m sure Disney, AiW and Johnny Depp fans will all be very happy to be able to add these two figures to their collections.


The Disney x Medicom Alice in Wonderland 100% Kubrick & Be@rbrick Set includes a Mad Hatter in Blue Jacket 100% Kubrick and a White Rabbit 100% Be@rbrick. This Alice in Wonderland movie edition set will retail for around $25-35 each.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 100% Kubrick & Be@rbrick Set

Along with Medicom’s Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Kubrick Series comes the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 100% Kubrick & Be@rbrick Set, which features a Quidditch Version Harry Potter Kubrick and a Gryffindor Crest Be@rbrick.


The details on this Harry Potter Kubrick are incredible, and the Quidditch Firebolt broomstick makes for a killer accessory. The Blot’s got a feeling this Harry Potter 100% Kubrick & Be@rbrick Set will be “flying” off store shelves!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 100% Kubrick & Be@rbrick Set is scheduled to go on sale sometime in December 2010 and will retail for around $25-35.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Kubrick Series

The final book of the Harry Potter series will be split into two films, with Part I premiering on November 19, 2010 and Part 2 scheduled to be released during the summer of 2011. To coincide with the debut of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 comes an all new Harry Potter Kubrick blind box series from Medicom. Like all things Harry Potter, expect this series to be highly sought after by collectors!

(click on the photo above for a more detailed look)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Kubrick Series includes Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Rubeus Hagrid, Albus Dumbledore, Lord Voldemort and Severus Snape. Fans can also expect at least one, if not two, secret chase figures to be included in this series as well.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Kubrick Series should be hitting store shelves sometime in December 2010, with each box retailing for around $10-12.

Johnny Cupcakes Summer 2010 Collection Part II

As The Blot mentioned a few weeks ago, it’s going to be a very busy summer for Johnny Cupcakes! Every few weeks JC will be releasing a new batch of t-shirts and this summer’s second crop of designs have now hit the Johnny Cupcakes online store. The Blot’s personal favorite new tee is the Warhol-esque Soup Can design, which is chockfull of pop art goodness.






All of the t-shirts above can be purchased directly from Johnny Cupcakes through its online store. The t-shirts come in guys and girls sizes and retail for $35.99 and $38.99 each.

Mondo Star Wars Screen Print Series #1 - Scrap Yard Power Droid by Jeff Soto

Mondo announced today that it has teamed up with Lucasfilm LTD for a completely licensed and official Star Wars poster series, which is some very exciting news for The Blot. Mondo has been secretly working on this for over a year, and today they have released the first in a series of original, limited edition Star Wars inspired screen printed posters. These are sure to sell out extremely quickly once word of this series spreads to the Star Wars community, so if you’re interested in any of these upcoming Star Wars prints act fast!


First up in the Mondo Star Wars Screen Print Series is Jeff Soto’s “Scrap Yard Power Droid” featuring a GNK Power Droid, or as he is known to most people, Gonk. To find out more about this very unique piece of Star Wars memorabilia and how Soto chose to make a Power Droid the subject of his print click here.

“Scrap Yard Power Droid” by Jeff Soto is a hand signed and numbered 24″x36″ screen print with a limited edition run size of 350. Each print retails for $50 and can be purchased here.

Strawberry Milton Vinyl Figure by Super7

Milton, everyone's favorite walking ice cream cone, once again emerges from the freezer with his waffle cone hat, this time cast in a very strawberry clear pink vinyl with white and red sprayed accents.


The Strawberry Milton vinyl figure from Super7 retails for $15 and will go on sale this Saturday, June 26th at Super7 and Super7 Florida at 11am PDT.

Alice in Wonderland Screen Print by Olly Moss

Based on Lewis Carroll's insanely popular book comes this awesome Alice in Wonderland screen print by Olly Moss! The Blot’s been anxiously awaiting the release of this print ever since Moss first released a teaser image of the design a few weeks ago. Olly really hit this one out of the park on this one. I just love the print’s simplistic, retro book cover look, and I think the mini-Alice at the bottom of the print was a smart addition (kind of giving the print a Disney vibe to it). This is definitely one of those prints that could be hung in anyone’s house.


Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland print by Olly Moss is a two color 16"x24" screen print. Each print comes signed and numbered by the artist and has a relatively small run size of just 192 prints. This AiW print will be released later today, Friday, June 25th, at PostersandToys.net at 2pm CST.

LOST Ben Linus & Kate Austen 8" Mego Style Action Figures

As it turns out, Series 1 and Series 2 of Bif Bang Pow!’s line of mego-style 8” LOST action figures will both be coming out in August 2010. Series 1 brings you retro versions of the enigmatic Ben Linus in the ragged clothing he wore as a member of The Others, and Kate Austen sporting her usual island wardrobe (sans her trademark freckles).


Both LOST Mego style action figures feature fabric clothing and multiple points of articulation, making these 8 inch Ben and Kate action figures incredibly lifelike. The figures come individually packaged, but can be preordered as a set for $37.99 from Entertainment Earth here. Collectors can expect these highly detailed figures to ship sometime during August 2010.

Tomenosuke Exclusive Ichigo Mama Panya with Berry Shroom by Erick Scarecrow

Check out Erick Scarecrow’s newest figure, Ichigo Mama Panya! This Tomenosuke exclusive figure will be sold as a set, which includes one 6" Ichigo Mama Panya figure and a 1.75" Berry Shroom figure. Each set is signed and numbered by the artist and comes packaged in Scarecrow’s signature box. The Tomenosuke Exclusive Ichigo Mama Panya with Berry Shroom set is limited to only 30 pieces and will be available on July 3, 2010, however less than 30 pieces will be available through Tomenosuke. For retail info please contact Tomenosuke here.


Ichigo Mama Panya’s Story: Ichigo Mama-Panya is a baker that makes colorful Shiitake Shroom cakes for a living. One day she found a large strawberry on the sidewalk that fell from a tree in front of a wizard's home. She picked it up and hurried back to her bakery to decorate her famous Berry Shroom cake with it.

The cake came alive and told her that what she did was unclean and dirty. Ichigo slapped the ungrateful cake and was about to discard him until he begged her not to. Ichigo thought long and hard about the Berry Shroom's fate until she decided that she could use an extra hand in her bakery.

The Berry Shroom was relieved and got to work immediately. They bonded and shared many secrets. When the Berry Shroom knocked over a jar of flour he sneezed repeatedly. This made his colors change. Ichigo was in shock when she realized her outfit colors changed as well.

Obey Giant: Glass Houses Canvas Screen Print by Shepard Fairey

Thankfully Shepard Fairey has stepped away from his portrait canvas prints to release a design very reminiscent of his earlier propaganda work. The Blot really digs the new "Glass Houses Canvas Print," especially the two quotes on it: “Insert Wise Phrase About Glass Houses” and “The Sky Is Not The Limit.” Back in the day I would have tried to snag one of these, but I’ve pretty much given up trying to get an Obey Giant print the day of its release from their online shop. Talk about a lesson in futility!


The Obey Giant “Glass Houses Canvas Print” by Shepard Fairey goes on sale today, June 24th, at a random time at the Obey Giant online store. This is an 18”x24” signed and numbered screen print with an edition size of 450.

AFRO-PUNK Festival 2010 Screen Print by Jermaine Rogers

Jermaine Rogers created all of the artwork for the 2010 AFRO-PUNK Festival, including the official print (seen below) and the clothing for the BMX and Skate exhibitions. Jermaine also collaborated with Nike to create some special product that will be available at the show. Anyone who’s ever wanted to rock a Nike shirt sporting Jermaine’s artwork will definitely want to check these out. Jermaine will also be at the festival painting artwork live!


For those of you interested in picking up the 2010 AFRO-PUNK Festival screen print by Jermaine Rogers, copies of the print should be made available on www.jermainerogers.com sometime after the festival.

The AFRO-PUNK Festival takes place June 25, 26 & 27 at the Commodore Barry Park in Brooklyn, NY. This year’s lineup includes legends like Mos Def, Bad Brains, 24-7 Spys, The Cool Kids, Thomas Pridgen's (formerly of The Mars Volta) new band The Memorials, and many more.

TRON Legacy SDCC 2010 Exclusives from Spin Master

Spin Master was awarded by Disney the master toy license for the upcoming sequel TRON Legacy, and the toy company has some seriously cool products in the works including a new line of 7.5” action figures. While a lot of those tie-ins won’t come out until closer to the film’s Christmas release, Spin Master has two San Diego Comic-Con 2010 exclusives scheduled to whet our appetites!


First up is a special edition TRON Vintage Figure. While the figure’s nice, what’s really cool about the figure is its packaging. The figure comes packaged in a retro TRON arcade cabin, which includes its trademark translucent blue joystick! How cool is that? The figure also has a light-up feature on its base that can be activated in or out of the arcade-style packaging. The TRON Vintage Figure is limited to 1,500 pieces and will retail for $40 at the SDCC TRON booth, which will be jointly run by Spin Master and Disney.


The second SDCC 2010 TRON exclusive is a limited edition die-cast replica of Sam’s Light Cycle from the upcoming TRON Legacy film. There will be 3,000 Light Cycles produced, with the die-cast motorcycle retailing for just $5! This SDCC exclusive will also be available for purchase at the SDCC 2010 TRON booth.

From what I’ve heard there are a ton very cool TRON Legacy tie-ins in the works from a variety of different companies, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled to The Blot Says… in the coming months for all the latest!

I Am A Girl Resin Figure by Amanda Visell

Amanda Visell has released a brand new resin figure entitled “I Am A Girl,” which she explains tongue firmly planted in cheek as “my sort of kaiju, which seems to be monsters figures made by boys. This is a girl made by a girl, so twice as scary." The Blot really digs Amanda’s version of neo-kaiju, unfortunately at $150 it’s a little out of my price range.


I Am A Girl by Amanda Visell is a 6.5”x4”x1” resin figure sculpted, molded, cast, hand painted, and packaged all in the Switcheroo workshop. There are two versions of the I Am A Girl resin figure: the dark blue Nitelite version has an unknown edition size, while the Frosty version is a hand painted clear resin with a limited edition run size of only 5 figures. Both figures retail for $150 and can be purchased here (although the Frosty I Am A Girl is already sold out).

LOST Hurley Reyes & John Locke 8" Mego Style Action Figures

Those of you looking forward to the upcoming release of the SDCC exclusive Jacob and Man in Black action figures by Bif Bang Pow! will be happy to know Bif Bang Pow!’s line of mego-style 8” LOST action figures will continue. Series 2 brings you retro versions of sweet and lovable Hugo "Hurley" Reyes wearing the mental institution garb he wore as a member of the Oceanic 6 during LOST Season 5, plus Season 1 John Locke in his island attire with a knife accessory.


Both LOST Mego style action figures feature fabric clothing and multiple points of articulation, making these 8” Hurley and Locke action figures incredibly lifelike. The figures come individually packaged, but can be preordered as a set for $37.99 from Entertainment Earth here. Collectors can expect these highly detailed figures to ship sometime during August 2010.

Coachella Music Festival 2010 “Snake” Poster by EMEK

For the 4th year in a row, EMEK has designed the poster for the Coachella Music Festival. The Coachella 2010 “Snake” poster depicts one of the fire breathing sculptures from the festival and is a 22”x30.5” 9 color silkscreen featuring a gorgeous metallic blue ink. The Blot predicts this killer EMEK image sells out in about 10 seconds.


The Coachella 2010 “Snake” Artist Edition screen print by EMEK is limited to just 100 pieces and goes on sale this Wednesday, June 23rd at 12 noon PDT here. Each Coachella 2010 “Snake” Artist Edition print comes signed, numbered, embossed, doodled and comes with a new handbill, all for just $85.

Memphis Beat starring Jason Lee Premieres Tonight on TNT

To be honest, The Blot has pretty low expectations for TNT’s newest hour long drama Memphis Beat. But while the reviews have only been so-so, I have to give Memphis Beat a shot because it stars one of my favorite actors, Jason Lee. I’ve loved him ever since the former skateboarder first started popping up in director Kevin Smith’s movies, and his NBC comedy My Name Is Earl was one of my favorite comedies of the ‘00s.


Memphis Beat centers on Dwight Hendricks (Jason Lee), a quirky Memphis police detective with an intimate connection to the city, a passion for blues music and a close relationship with his mother. He is "the keeper of Memphis," a Southern gentleman who is protective of his fellow citizens, reverential of the city's history and deeply rooted in its blues music scene. Despite his impeccable instincts as a detective, Dwight's loose, relaxed style of police work rubs his demanding new boss, Lt. Tanya Rice (Alfre Woodard), the wrong way. But Dwight may eventually win her over to a Memphis state of mind, especially when he takes the stage at his favorite hangout to perform a legendary Elvis song or two.

Memphis Beat airs Tuesday nights at 10/9c on TNT, and stars Jason Lee, Alfre Woodard, DJ Qualls, Celia Weston, Sam Hennings, Leonard Earl Howze and Abraham Benrubi.

The Green Hornet Movie Mez-Itz Set: Green Hornet & Kato Vinyl Figures by Mezco Toyz

The Green Hornet Movie Mez-Itz Set by Mezco Toyz features two 6” vinyl figures of The Green Hornet and his faithful valet Kato. These two figures feature costumes inspired by the upcoming The Green Hornet feature film starring Seth Rogen, however I’m not quite sure they really nailed Rogen’s fro. Both figures feature five points of articulation and are individually packaged in collector friendly window boxes.


While The Green Hornet Movie Mez-Itz 2-pack is not scheduled to ship until sometime in November 2010, it is currently available for preorder through the Mezco Toyz online store for just $26.

The Green Hornet, a classic character of film, television, radio, and comic books, returns to the big screen in Columbia Pictures' big budget tent pole feature film The Green Hornet starring Seth Rogen as the vigilante crime-fighter and Jay Chou as Kato. The is scheduled to debut in theaters on January 14, 2011, and will be based upon The Green Hornet radio series created by George W. Trendle.

LTD Tee - Croc O’ Hug T-Shirt & Art Print by Camilla D’Errico

LTD Tee has teamed up with the amazing anime illustrator Camilla D'Errico, who is best known for her pop surrealism style of work. LTD Tee will be releasing Camilla’s "Croc O' Hug" painting as a t-shirt and art print in a killer box set. No matter what platform D’Errico’s work is reproduced, whether as a print, vinyl figure or now on a t-shirt, The Blot continues to be blown away by her work.


As always with LTD Tee, the Camilla D’Errico “Croc O’ Hug” box set will be available for one week only, exclusively at www.ltdtee.net. From June 21st through June 27th, fans can purchase the “Croc O’ Hug” box set by Camilla D’Errico. Each box set includes a screen printed t-shirt, an 8”x10” art print and a LTD Tee sticker pack all packaged in a custom screen printed box.


While the Camilla D’Errico box set retails for $26.99, readers of The Blot Says… can use the discount code “blotsays” for 20% off! Is that a great deal or what? But remember, you’ve only got 6 more days to purchase this great box set, so act quickly and be sure to tell them The Blot sent you.

Draw Limited T-Shirts

The Blot recently found out about a really cool art project entitled Draw Limited. Draw in a new company that revolves around simple doodles and drawings, proving there's artistic merit in everyone’s art. What’s really cool about Draw is they’ve taken the traditional user submitted design model (utilized by companies such as Threadless and TeeFury) and flipped it on its head. You see, unlike those other companies Draw actually uses EVERY drawing it gets! How cool is that!?!


To give you an idea how Draw works, the company posts a theme or idea on its website, and users submit their drawings of that theme/idea. The only catch is every aspect of the design has to be hand drawn, i.e. nothing is done on a computer. Draw then takes the designs it receives and makes t-shirts, posters, prints and buttons of the drawings. If Draw doesn’t use the art on a tee, they’ll use it in another medium, but they really do use everything submitted. So, if you’ve always wanted to see your drawings or ideas printed on a t-shirt or button, start visiting www.drawlimited.com and submit a drawing today!


Cool shirts like the ones seen above can be purchased from the Draw Limited online store for $24 each.

Kidrobot - Dunny Azteca Series 2 Teaser Image

The Blot has no idea if this is legit or not, but it looks like Kidrobot’s long rumored 3” Dunny Azteca Series 2 is finally seeing the light of day. Toy blog Vinyles Chiles has posted a photo of what may be the official lineup for Azteca Series 2. (link) While the first Dunny Azteca Series was extremely popular (and limited), I’m really not feeling the designs below. Then again, maybe they’ll grow on me once I’ve seen them in person.


The line-up of the alleged 3 inch Dunny Azteca Series 2 by Kidrobot features designs by Zhon DSR, Oscar Mar, Naco, Michelle Prats, Tatei, Anais E3, Ciler E3, Tepetonga, Miguel Garcia Barracuda, Luis Mata, Morbito, Neuzz, Fatal, Jose Leandro Cordova, Frida, and Jose Maria Torre.

Super7 - Burning Anger Mongolion by L'amour Supreme

Super7’s Snakes of Infinity Army lurks patiently in the darkness, stalking closer and closer to their singular goal of global conquest. The wind carries hushed whispers of a strange and terrifying beast hiding in the shadows…the Burning Anger Mongolion!


The newest colorway of L’amour Supreme’s Mongolion is almost here, and it looks beautiful. Who could turn down a figure whose base is clear red vinyl!?! This latest colorway features the traditional Chinese colors of red, teal and gold, which is based on the similar color pattern of the previously released Burning Anger Stomp vinyl figure.

The Burning Anger Mongolion will retail for around $60-70 and goes on sale June 26th at the Super7, Super Florida, and Mishka NYC.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World International Trailer

If you thought the last Scott Pilgrim vs. The World movie trailer was awesome, then you’re really going to be blown away by the film’s international trailer! It takes everything fans love about the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels and makes it come to life. I seriously can’t believe how realistic they make even the craziest of scenes from the Scott Pilgrim books.



Scott Pilgrim vs. The World might be one of the truest adaptations of a comic book I’ve ever seen, and puts other video game based movies to shame. But don’t take my word for it; check out the SPvsTW international trailer above!

The Scott Pilgrim live action movie adaptation, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, premieres on August 13, 2010, while Scott Pilgrim Volume 6, Scott Pilgrim’s Finest Hour, by Bryan Lee O’Malley hits book shelves on July 20, 2010.

The Smurfs Movie First Look and Teaser Trailer

Fans reaction to the upcoming “live action” The Smurfs movie has been all over the map, but I think it’s safe to say reaction has definitely skewed towards the negative. I’m still holding out hope The Smurfs will be a cute kids movie, but I’ve got a feeling it’ll include some inappropriate crass moments totally disgracing the legacy of Peyo’s greatest creations.


In the photo above you can see the world’s first every look at the Smurfs in all their CGI glory. Papa Smurf and his two generic Smurf companions actually looks pretty good, but I’ll need to see more before making any final judgments. You can see a little more of the three Smurfs above in the film’s first teaser trailer below. It’s cute, but nothing special.



The Smurfs in 3D is scheduled to debut in theaters sometime during the summer of 2011.

SpankyStokes.com Exclusive Obsidian Edition Ozomahtli by Jesse Hernandez

Earlier today SpankyStokes.com announced its first ever exclusive figure, the Obsidian Edition Ozomahtli by Jesse Hernandez, and it’s a beauty! This is the fourth colorway of Jesse’s Aztec inspired monkey, and each one is better than the last. The Ozomahtli vinyl figure has been one of the hottest releases of 2010 and it doesn’t show any signs of slowing down anytime soon.


The SpankyStokes.com Exclusive Obsidian Edition Ozomahtli by Jesse Hernandez stands 9" tall and features a beautiful gloss black/matte black finish. This limited edition figure has two articulated arms, a removable headdress, and an articulated head. The Obsidian Edition Ozomahtli will retail for $90 each and goes on sale Thursday, July 1st, at the SpankyStokes.com online store.

Los Angeles Lakers Win the 2010 NBA Championship For Back to Back Titles

Wow, as a lifelong fan of the Los Angeles Lakers The Blot can honestly say I’m as excited for this NBA Championship, the franchise’s sixteenth, as I was the first time I watched the Lakers win one in the ‘80s. It’s definitely a feeling that never gets old, and this one was especially sweet considering the team’s collapse against the Boston Celtics in the 2008 NBA Finals.


It’s hard to believe the Lakers have now been to the Finals three straight years and are coming off back-to-back championships. Before Derek Fisher’s return and Pau Gasol’s arrival in 2008, the team was in a freefall and Kobe’s departure was all but certain. Now the years with Smush Parker and Kwame Brown are just a distant memory!


There are a number of reasons this championship is especially sweet, and at the top of that list is because it came against the Lakers’ hated rivals, the Celtics, and was the perfect revenge for 2008’s loss. On top of that, Kobe now has 5 titles (and 2 NBA Finals MVP awards), on par with Magic Johnson, and Phil Jackson has won 11 titles, widening his record over the Celtics Red Auerbach (who has 9 titles to his credit). Another amazing statistic is that Jackson is the only NBA coach to ever win multiple titles in a row four different times! He had two different three-peats with the Bulls, a three-peat with the Lakers and now back-to-back championships again with the Lakers. That’s just incredible, isn’t it?


Another interesting turn of events from last night’s victory is that Kobe now has more NBA titles than Shaquille O’Neal (5 to 4). When asked what winning another NBA titale means to him individually, Kobe responded “Just got one more than Shaq. You can take that to the bank. You know how I am. I don't forget anything." I may be a Shaq guy, but that’s still pretty funny (and true).


I could go on and on about Pau’s amazing performance throughout the playoffs (he probably should have won the Finals MVP award this year), Ron Artest’s amazing in game 7 or DFish’s continued clutch shooting…but I won’t, because you already know how great they were! Instead I’ll just make an impassioned plea to Lakers owner Dr. Jerry Buss to please, please, please resign Phi Jackson. Pay the man his money so the Lakers can you win you a second three-peat.

Sketchup 8 Inch Custom Dunny by Sket-One

One of The Blot’s all time favorite custom Dunnys is coming back in a big way! First it was announced Sket-One’s classic Sketchup design was to be included in Kidrobot’s 3” Dunny Series 2010. Then Kidrobot released a very cool Sketchup t-shirt, and now Sket has announced a new series of 20 8” Sketchup custom Dunnys! The Blot’s got a sinking suspicion that these hand made custom 8 inch Dunnys are going to be highly sought after, so if you want one be sure to act quickly.


The Sketchup 8 inch custom Dunny by Sket-One includes a functioning bottle cap, a custom Heinz ketchup inspired label, a 3.5”x3.5” custom header card, a miniature 2.25oz glass bottle with custom label (and real ketchup inside) and a wrought iron condiment caddy to display this killer set! Each signed and numbered Sketchup Dunny will retail for $550 and will be available for purchase on July 2nd at Sket’s online store.
