Not only does it have a great name, Cary Stoddard’s peel-off mask also gets rid of all the mold and dirt in vinyl records in just…er, 4 to 12 hours. Check out Stoddard’s website for more info.
Our favorite multi-tasking mobile OS goes multi-colored with Andrew Bell’s 3″ Android mini collectibles; due out soon, it features 12 different vinyl figures with rotating heads and arms.
The Alien “Big Chap” Vinyl looks a bit like he’s taking a dump, but if you want an acid-spitting figurine that won’t scare the crap out of coworkers, this cute deformed version is it.
Astroboy’s design is pretty simple, but this 9″ 1:6 vinyl by Hot Toys is still a high-flying piece for the retro collector, with arm cannons, battery-operated X-ray eyes and a 12.5″ chamber.
We almost lost it when Fox threatened to replace the original voice actors, but this set of sixteen 3″ Futurama Mini Figs makes up for it; as Bender would say, buy my shiny metal ass!
We’re still reeling from his passing, but Hot Toys’ 1:6 Michael Jackson Thriller vinyls do the King of Pop proud; it’ll include regular and zombie versions when it’s released 12/09. Thanks, RO!
It’s a mostly evil collection of Star Wars characters, but The Empire Muggs Back is for a good cause: created by artists, proceeds will go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Thanks, Thorir!
We’ve seen lots of great urban vinyl, but Robotox’s VF-1 Skull Leader takes the cake; this hard vinyl Macross ‘bot actually transforms between Fighter, Gerwalk and Battroid modes.
MGS3′s Big Boss/Naked Snake gets deformed with this Zombie Snake vinyl figure; the camo and big blocky head are badass, although we’re blanching a bit at the $80 price tag.
Move over, Justice League and X-Men: these scientist action figures by Oddfellows are the real deal, with posed 2.5″ vinyl versions of Einstein, Tesla, Newton, Darwin and Curie.
Made for Disney’s Experiment 626 Tour, we’re digging everything about this Ultra Iron Stitch by Ultraman from the rivets down to the tribal patterns; it’s on display at DNM in Hong Kong.
Futurama’s “A Tale of Two Santas” is one of our favorite episodes, so we’re itching to get our mitts on this two-fer, which includes both the bad and the ugly: Robot Santa and Santa Bender.
Part Wolverine and part Creature from the Black Lagoon, “Midnight Snack” Muraida is clad in a black colorway with 6 articulation points; it’s limited to 200 pieces and goes on sale 11/28 here.
We’ve never thought of Mickey as menacing, but this Transformers x Disney mashup (available Feb. 2009) still looks pretty cool: it actually transforms between semi and robot form.
Alright, so these Transformers Mighty Muggs don’t actually transform, but we’re really digging Hasbro’s versions of our favorite Cybertronian robots; it’s a set of 4 individually packaged figs.
Designed by legendary artist Michael Lau (check out his Kubrick figures here), Juno x Soft Hard is commemorative set based off Hong Kong celeb Juno Mak’s “Lam Man Lung” music video.
Dynasty Warrior’s frenetic hack and slash gameplay comes to life with these sweet chibi-style urban vinyl figures; due to release in late Feb. 2009, you can preorder a box of 12 of them now.
We’re having a hard time choosing just one of these three Batman Uni-Formz urban vinyls; thankfully, you can get ‘em in a limited-run “Statues Case” that includes six of the 8″ figures.
