Loot Crate Exclusive “BatJoker” Batman Pop! Vinyl Figure by Funko

In celebration of Batman’s 75th Anniversary, Loot Crate’s December crate (which had an “anniversary” theme) included this exclusive “BatJoker” Batman Pop! Heroes vinyl figure in it! Pretty crazy looking, right!?! Now thanks to Funko we know what The Joker would look like if he’d become Batman instead of Bruce Wayne. While The Blot is typically not into these kind of outlandish colorways just for the sake of doing a variant, the BatJoker turned out really nice.

What's really cool about this retailer exclusive DC Comics Pop! is that December's Loot Crate crate packaging could be transformed into the BatJoker’s BatJokercave! Now that’s an awesome accessory. While Loot Crate's December crate is long gone, these figures are readily available on the secondary market at places like eBay and Amazon. That’s the best part of Loot Crate exclusives. While they’re retailer exclusives, they’re not all that limited because of Loot Crate's huge subscriber base.

“Original” Greedo Star Wars Premium Hikari Sofubi Vinyl Figure by Funko

To kick off their new line of Star Wars Hikari vinyl figures, Funko is releasing this really fun (and metallic) “Original” Greedo Hikari. The Blot is calling it now, this line is going to be huge for Funko!!! While a sofubi vinyl figure of the galaxy’s most famous Rodian bounty hunter doesn’t really excite me, the line will soon be expanded to include Hikari figures of Darth Vader, C-3PO, Boba Fett, Bossk, a Clone Trooper, a Stormtrooper, and the vicious Wampa. Rumor has it that many of these figures will be released in 2015 too. Talk about flooding the market! That being said, it’s going to be really hard for me to resist buying all of the different Boba Fett Hikari Funko releases.

Hikari, meaning “light”, is a highly collectible line of clear/translucent figures cast in soft Japanese vinyl. Each “Original” Greedo Premium Hikari vinyl figure stands 8” tall, includes a hand numbered card to prove authenticity and rarity, and comes packaged in a full color window box perfect for display. Limited to 2,000 pieces, this Star Wars Hikari vinyl figure is not expected to hit store shelves until February 2015, but you can pre-order one now at Entertainment Earth for $79.99 here.

EE Exclusive “Black & Red” Deadpool Premium Hikari Sofubi Vinyl Figure by Funko

Funko has announced the second colorway of its deadly Deadpool Premium Marvel Hikari Sofubi Vinyl Figure, and it’s being sold exclusively by our friends at Entertainment Earth! The “Black and Red” Deadpool Hikari, which is the Merc with a Mouth in his alternate costume that features a reverse color scheme of his classic uniform. Hikari, meaning “light”, is a highly collectible line of clear/translucent figures cast in soft Japanese vinyl (and made in China).

Each Entertainment Earth Exclusive “Black and Red” Deadpool Hikari vinyl figure stands 10.25” tall, includes a hand numbered card to prove authenticity and rarity, and comes packaged in a full color window box perfect for display. Limited to 750 pieces, this Marvel Hikari vinyl figure is not expected to hit store shelves until April 2015, but you can pre-order one now exclusively at Entertainment Earth for $79.99 here.

EE Exclusive The Rainbow Batman Pop! Series by Funko - Yellow Batman

In honor of Batman’s 75th Anniversary, Funko and Entertainment Earth have teamed up to produce this awesome The Rainbow Batman Pop! Series. This awesome series of 6 figures is based on DC Comics’ Detective Comics #241, in which Batman wears a different colored costume each day of the week. Is this a stereotypical Silver Age story or what!?! The cover of the comic book nicknamed him “The Rainbow Batman,” which is where the name for this series comes from.

Entertainment Earth is kicking off their retailer exclusive The Rainbow Batman Pop! Series with the Yellow Batman! Each vinyl figure stands 3.75” tall, features one point of articulation and comes packaged in a full color displayable window box. While this festive figure is not expected to ship until May 2015, you can pre-order one now at Entertainment Earth for $12.99 here.

Toy Wars Exclusive Holographic Emperor Star Wars Pop! Vinyl Figure by Funko

It’s been a really long time since Funko released a Star Wars Pop! variant figure, but man has it been well worth the wait! The Blot loves these Star Wars holographic variant colorways, and thanks to Toy Wars we’re about to get this store exclusive Hologrpahic Emperor Palpatine Pop! based on his appearance in The Empire Strikes Back. Here’s hoping we see more of these in the future. Maybe a spirit Yoda!?!

The Toy Wars Exclusive Hologrpahic Emperor Palpatine Pop! Star Wars vinyl figure bobble head stands 3.75” tall, features one point of articulation and comes packaged in a full color displayable window box. You can pre-order one now at the Toy Wars online store for $14.99.

“Days of Mondo Past” Humorous Parody Screen Print by Daniel Danger

As Daniel Danger explained on Twitter, “in the early days of doing Flatstock I used to do parody posters featuring my artist buddies for fun.” Yesterday, Danger did it again with this amazingly funny “Days of Mondo Past” screen print! Designed as a dumb joke for Mondo and their fans, “Days of Mondo Past” is a parody of John Byrne’s iconic cover to Uncanny X-Men #141 with all of Marvel’s mutants replaced by Mondo’s staff and popular stable of artists. Can you identify all the artists included in Danger’s design!?! It’s a venerable who’s who of the rock poster/art print scene. Here’s hoping we see more of these humorous poster designs from DD in the future.

“Days of Mondo Past” by Daniel Danger is a 24”x36” 7 or 8 color signed and numbered screen print. Available pre-order now at Danger’s online store for $50, this release is a timed edition from now through Sunday, February 1st. The run size will be set based on the number orders placed over the weekend.

“Greetings from Skull Rock” Peter Pan Screen Print by Dave Perillo

Dark Ink Art and Acme Archives Direct have released the next print in their adorable “Greetings from…” Disney Screen Print Series by Dave Perillo! For the series’ third release, Perillo has designed this colorful movie poster for the legendary 1953 animated film Peter Pan. “Greetings from Skull Rock” features the primary cast of Peter Pan, which includes Pan, Tinker Bell, Wendy, John and Michael, as well as Captain Hook and Mr. Smee. The design even includes the deadly Crocodile and Hook’s dreaded Skull Rock in the background. Here’s hoping there are many more “Greetings from…” Disney prints by Perillo in our future!

“Greetings from Skull Rock” by Dave Perillo is an 18”x24” Peter Pan screen print. Limited to just 250 pieces, the print is available for purchase now at the Dark Ink Art online store for $50.

The Mega Dunny Haunted House 20” Custom Vinyl Figure by Mikie Graham

After originally debuting at Designer Con 2014, Mikie Graham’s epic Mega Dunny Haunted House custom vinyl figure is finally available for purchase!!! This is without a doubt one of the most ambitious customs The Blot’s seen in a very long time, and Mikie absolutely killed it. This 20” Mega Dunny includes a full set of 18 hand painted 3” Monster Dunny figures and four lighting effects from a custom programmed Arduino board. This wild custom figure took a full year to be completed from concept to completion, and all of Mikie’s hard work really shows.

The Blot seriously loves all the crazy details Mikie included in this piece! For instance, all of the Monster Dunnys have magnets that allow them to easily attach to dozens of bases built throughout the Haunted House. The Mega Dunny Haunted House also comes on an amazingly detailed hand carved antique wooden base, includes a removable clear resin “water” top to its Black Lagoon lake, and even has a real working chain driven mechanism to pull the Frankenstein Dunny’s platform up and through the roof of the Haunted House. There’s even custom made stained glass windows featuring holographic “haunted eyeballs.” Insane, right!?!

The Mega Dunny Haunted House 20” Custom Vinyl Figure is currently available for purchase at the Zombie Monkie online store for $2,500.

“Wasteland Warrior” Berserker Vinyl Figure by Mutant Vinyl Hardcore

The Blot always seems to miss out on covering Mutant Vinyl Hardcore’s amazing releases, because the announcements often come right before MVH’s lotteries open and subsequently close before I have time to blog. But make no mistake about it, The Blot is a huge fan of MVH’s western sofubi. Rich’s super detailed sculpting make all of his figures really come to life. Just look at this week’s release, the “Wasteland Warrior” Berserker. This guy really means business! I for one wouldn’t want to get on his bad side.

The “Wasted Warrior” Berserker returns from the scorched earth in this ‘80s post-apocalyptic themed colorway. If the Wasteland Warrior had theme music, it would be by John Carpenter, and the accompanying film would have a poster which was better than the actual movie. The “Wasted Warrior” Berserker stands over 13” tall, is cast in pale flesh soft Japanese vinyl and features neon red, muted purple, and metallic green and silver sprays. Each figure also includes 2 sets of hands, one to hold the haunted battle axe and one to display your severed head/spiked ball omake.

The Wasted Warrior is a limited edition figure available exclusively through a lottery via the Mutant Vinyl Hardcore online store for $200. The lottery will be open for 24 hours beginning at 12:00am today, Friday, January 30th, and closing at 11:59pm later tonight. Winners will be notified on Saturday, January 31st with payment due within 48hrs of notification.

Alien Screen Print by Tyler Stout

Last Wednesday Mondo held a very special 35mm screening of Ridley Scott’s iconic 1979 science-fiction horror film Alien at the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz in Austin. Of course it’s not a Mondo event without the release of a matching movie poster, and Mondo went all out with this surprise release! For their Alien screening, Mondo teamed up with the super popular Tyler Stout to release an epic Alien screen print. What I love about this poster is how much its design reminds me of Stout’s early releases. It’s great to see him revisit that stage of his career before he became the screen print star he is today.

Alien by Tyler Stout is a 24”x36” hand numbered screen print. The Standard Edition is limited to 510 pieces and will retail for $60, while the Glow in the Dark Variant is limited to 235 pieces and will retail for $110. Both prints go on sale at a random time today, Friday, January 30th, at the Mondo online store.

Star Wars Han Solo with Tauntaun Deluxe Black Series 6” Action Figure

Hasbro is adding a third deluxe figure (and second “vehicle”) to its popular line of Star Wars Black Series 6” action figures, and it’s a beauty! This Deluxe Black Series release is Hoth Han Solo (from the Empire Strikes Back) with his trusty Tauntaun, which he can actually ride. All that’s missing is for the Tauntaun to feature “gut-busting” action, so we can recreate one of the most infamous scenes from the original Star Wars trilogy. I guess we’ll just have to wait for that bit of functionality until Hasbro decides to release a matching Hoth Luke Skywalker and Tauntaun set.

The Star Wars Han Solo with Tauntaun Deluxe Black Series Action Figure is not expected to hit store shelves until June 2015, but you can pre-order one now from Entertainment Earth for $39.99 here.

Coming Soon: “Dorbz” Marvel & DC Comics Vinyl Figures by Vinyl Sugar (aka Funko)

Funko’s new imprint Vinyl Sugar has announced its second all new toy line! Following the unveiling of the epic Vinyl Idolz line comes Dorbz! While we know absolutely nothing about Dorbz, The Blot assumes this is a new line of mini figures (with one point of articulation) featuring Funko’s signature licensed properties. To kick things off, we know Vinyl Sugar will definitely be releasing Marvel Dorbz of Captain America, Groot, and Ghost Rider and DC Comics Dobz of Batgirl and probably Batman. More information should be hitting the internet soon from New York Toy Fair 2015!

“Detective Comics #776” Batman Screen Print by Brian Ewing

It’s been a long time since there was a print released that the minute The Blot saw it I knew I had to have it! That happened yesterday when Brian Ewing released this killer Batman screen print “Detective Comics #776.” Fans of Ewing’s amazing concert posters and art prints might not know this talented designer is also a published comic book artist. Back in January 2003, DC Comics published Ewing’s first of three comic book covers for the company and boy was it a beauty! That first cover was for Detective Comics issue #776, which featured prominently the world’s greatest detective, Batman. Ewing has decided to revisit that original cover illustration of DC’s The Dark Knight, and reproduced it for this striking “Detective Comics #776” screen print.

What I found really interesting about “Detective Comics #776”, is that Brian decided to redraw skull in Batman’s magnifying glass because it always bugged him. It’s crazy to think this image was originally created over 12 years ago, but man does it still look as fresh as ever. It’s cool to compare the two skulls and see how Ewing’s style has changed over the years.

“Detective Comics #776” by Brian Ewing is an 18”x24” signed and numbered Batman screen print. Limited to just 75 pieces, this wonderful print is currently available for purchase at the Brian Ewing online store for $50 each.

“Snoopy Valentine” Print by Nicole Gustafsson

This Friday Dark Hall Mansion will be releasing its annual Valentine’s Day Peanuts print, and this year’s print is the fun “Snoopy Valentine” by Nicole Gustafsson. The Blot loves Nicole’s ode to Valentine’s Day with her unique take on the Peanuts gang, Valentine's Day, the charm of old school homemade valentines, and of course, love! What’s great about this print is it’s actually based on an original painting by Gustafsson!

Nicole explained her inspiration for this piece: “Growing up it seems like there was always aspects of Peanuts that were part of our lives. Watching Peanuts TV specials over the holidays and hanging little ornaments of Snoopy and characters on our Christmas tree, or the time I got a really big valentine with Snoopy holding a heart. So when I was asked to create a piece based on Peanuts, I immediately thought of all these fun times I had with my family and friends.” That fun really shines through on “Snoopy Valentine”!

Snoopy Valentine by Nicole Gustafsson is a 16”x20” numbered giclee print. The Standard Edition has a limited edition run size of 280 pieces and will retail for $65, while the Variant is limited to 50 pieces and will retail for $100. There is also a super rare Canvas Edition limited to just 5 pieces of each colorway and retailing for $225 each. All four prints go on sale this Friday, January 30th, at Dark Hall Mansion's online store at 9:30am PST.

Peanut Butter Micro Mummy Boy & Rose Vampire Vinyl Figures by Super7

Super7’s lovable mascot Mummy Boy and the Earth’s Avenger, Rose Vampire, are back in micro size! It’s been over a year and a half since Super7 first released these adorable micro figures (their first toys in this scale), and The Blot is pumped to see their return. These tiny peanut butter colored vinyl figures are small enough to fit in your pocket and go with you on all your adventures.

Brian Flynn’s Micro Mummy Boy and Josh Herbolsheimer’s Micro Rose Vampire stand approximately 1.5” tall and are cast in delicious, unpainted peanut butter brown colored soft Japanese vinyl. These Super7 micro figures go on sale this Thursday, January 29th, at noon PST at the S7 online store for just $10 each.

Batman 75th Anniversary Screen Print Series - “Batman: The Silver Age” by Dave Perillo

Geek Art and French Paper Art Club have teamed up with DC Comics to produce a new officially licensed Batman 75th Anniversary Screen Print Series. For this series’ newest print, they’ve commissioned the super talented Dave Perillo to apply his unique vintage and cartoony style to the Silver Age Batman universe, and it is freaking fabulous!!! I can’t believe there is an officially licensed Batman screen print that features Catman and the Cluemaster (two of my favorite Batman villains). “Batman: The Silver Age” is just perfect, which makes me all the more frustrated that it’s already sold out! How in the world did The Blot miss this print’s release!?!

“Batman: The Silver Age” by Dave Perillo is a 12”x36” Batman 75th Anniversary 6 color screen print. Limited to 100 signed and numbered pieces, this officially licensed print was sold exclusively at the French Paper AC online store for €40.

Hot Topic Exclusive “I Am Groot” Dancing Groot Guardians of the Galaxy Pop! Marvel Vinyl Figure by Funko

If you’ve been wondering if Funko would ever release another variant of their extremely popular Dancing Groot Guardians of the Galaxy Pop! Marvel vinyl figure, you’re in luck! The third colorway of this adorable figure just dropped exclusively at Hot Topic! This new store exclusive Dancing Groot Pop! features a teal pot with the saying “I Am Groot” written on it. It’s cute, but definitely not my favorite version of this toy. Regardless, it’s a must get to complete your Guardians of the Galaxy Pop! collection.

The Hot Topic Exclusive “I Am Groot” Dancing Groot Guardians of the Galaxy Pop! Marvel vinyl figure stands 3.75” tall, features one point of articulation and comes packaged in a full color displayable window box. While it is currently sold out at the Hot Topic online store, you can still pick one up at your local Hot Topic retail location for $12.50.

Medicom Exclusive Sextopigon Vinyl Figure by Skinner & Unbox Industries

The Blot was not kidding around when I said Skinner is taking over the designer art toy scene this year! Check out his newest amazing figure, the Sextopigon. This insane demon features six arms, eight arms and enough teeth to devour anything that gets in its way. Produced by Unbox Industries, the first Sextopigon colorway is being released exclusively by Medicom. Featuring a red, yellow and black color scheme, the Medicom Exclusive Sextopigon 8” vinyl figure is currently available for pre-order through the Medicom online store for around $100.

Venom, Ghost Rider & The Vision Marvel Retro Sofubi Collection Vinyl Figures by Medicom

Medicom is not messing around with its Marvel Retro Sofubi Collection, and The Blot is very happy about it! In less than a year, Medicom has already announced three waves of figures featuring the heroes and villains of the Marvel Universe. Wave 3 is the toy line’s most diverse release yet, featuring the popular Spider-Man villain Venom, The Avengers’ resident android Vision, and the supernatural Ghost Rider. There’s really no connection between these three characters, making it a very odd line up of figures. But somehow Medicom makes it work. It helps that all three Marvel heroes are bad ass!

These Venom, Ghost Rider and The Vision Marvel Retro Sofubi Collection vinyl figures stand 10” tall, features 4 points of articulation, and come packaged in full color window boxes. While these figures are not expected hit stores in the US until June 2015, you can pre-order them now from Entertainment Earth for $89.99 each here.

Classical Edition The Last Knight Vinyl Figure by Andrew Bell

The fourth colorway of Andrew Bell’s majestic The Last Knight vinyl figure will be popping up at designer toy stores everywhere soon. Based on the moniker of Bell’s designer toy company Dead Zebra Inc., The Last Knight is a skull-headed zebra in the format of an 8” tall knight chess piece. The figure’s newest colorway is the “Classical Edition,” which features all white vinyl with gold accents and black eyes. I don’t know what it is about The Last Knight, but the figure’s sculpt looks amazing in any color scheme.

The Classical Edition The Last Knight stands 8” tall, features an articulated jaw and ears, and is limited to just 200 pieces. Collectors can pick one up at designer toy retailers worldwide for $75 each.

“Pattern of Corruption” OBEY Giant Screen Prints by Shepard Fairey & Cleon Peterson

It’s been a while since OBEY Giant released one of Shepard Fairey’s signature pattern screen prints that really blew The Blot away. But man I’m in love with this new collaboration between Shepard and artist Cleon Peterson entitled “Pattern of Corruption”. The print is based on a mural Cleon and Shepard recently collaborated on in Miami’s Wynwood district. Their collab turned out so amazing the two artists decided to make some limited edition screen prints inspired by the mural. 

Both Cleon and Shepard deal with the persistent themes of the fragility of society, human savagery, and corruption in their work. As such, the “Pattern of Corruption” has a dichotomy in its hypnotic classical floral pattern with sinister elements woven into it, which caution the viewer to look deeper than an appealing surface presentation.

“Pattern of Corruption” by Shepard Fairey and Cleon Peterson is an 18”x24” Obey Giant screen print, with each poster signed and numbered by the artists. Each version is limited to just 150 pieces and sold as sets in three unique colorways: Black/White, Gold/Black and Blue/White. “Pattern of Corruption” will go on sale at a random time between 10am to noon PST on Tuesday, January 27th, at the OBEY Giant online store for $120 per set.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Screen Print by Jason Edmiston

This week’s movie poster is by artist Jason Edmiston, whose design is chock full amazing details and color. It depicts the end of the film where Leatherface is chasing Sally (Marilyn Burns) in the truck as she makes her escape.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre by Jason Edmiston is a 24”x36” ten color screen print. The Regular Edition has a limited edition run size of 200 pieces and will retail for $50, while the Variant is limited to 125 pieces and will retail for $65.

Coming Soon: The Playboy Designer Art Toy Series presented by Coartism & Blitzway

Yesterday, Coartism announced on their Instagram page an exciting new collaboration between the mysterious company and Blitzway to produce an epic new line of designer art toys based on the iconic Playboy brand by many of the industry’s top artists! In The Blot’s honest opinion, this is exactly the type of forward thinking artist series the designer art toy scene desperately needs. The Playboy Collector’s Edition Art Toys Series features seven Playboy magazine inspired vinyl figures by Eric So, David Flores, Mighty Jaxx, Les Schettkoe, TwelveDot, Sticky Monster Lab and Hands In Factory.

This is Funko’s second 6” Marvel Pop!, and it is seriously sick. They really killed it with this Hulkbuster Iron Man figure. Just look at all those details.

Avengers: Age of Ultron Pop! Marvel Vinyl Figures by Funko

Yesterday, Funko made the announcement we’ve all been waiting for… They’ve finally unveiled their entire line of officially licensed Avengers: Age of Ultron toys! The Blot was seriously blown away by how many movie tie-in figures Funko is producing this summer, and my favorite release of the bunch is without a doubt these Avengers: Age of Ultron Pop! Marvel vinyl figures. All of these look fantastic, but why the heck did Funko make The Vision pink!?! There’s no way he’s actually pink in the movie, right?

Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron Pop! Series includes Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Hawkeye, The Vision and the evil Ultron. Here’s hoping we see an Age of Ultron Pop! Series 2 with some female characters! I can’t imagine we won’t be seeing a Black Widow, Nick Fury, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver Pop! produced at some point in the near future.
