Awesome Vinyls

Astroboy Vinyl

Astroboy Vinyl

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.

Futurama Mini Figs

Buy

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!

Vinyl: MJ Thriller

Vinyl: MJ Thriller
Buy

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!

Star Wars Empire Muggs

Star Wars Empire Muggs

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!

Robotox Macross Vinyl

Robotox Macross Vinyl

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.

Zombie Snake Vinyl

Zombie Snake Vinyl
Buy

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.

Scientist Action Figures

Scientist Action Figures
Buy

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.

Ultra Iron Stitch

Ultra Iron Stitch

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: Robot Santa

Futurama: Robot Santa
Buy

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.

Midnight Snack Muraida

Midnight Snack Muraida
Buy

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.

Mickey Mouse Prime

Mickey Mouse Prime
Buy

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.

Transformers Mighty Muggs

Transformers Mighty Muggs
Buy

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.

Batman Uni-Formz Vinyls

Batman Uni-Formz Vinyls

Kill Audio Vinyl

Kill Audio Vinyl

We’re only just getting acquainted with Claudio Sanchez’s Kill Audio vinyls; available in three versions, “Bloody” is our top pick and soaked in crimson goodness: DO WANT.

Mechagodzilla

Mechagodzilla
Buy

Blasphemy: we prefer Mecha to the original Godzilla: standing 11″ tall and amazingly detailed for a vinyl, Mecha Godzilla sports articulating limbs; no word on the laser eye cannon, however.

Chaos Monkey

Chaos Monkey
Buy

With arms longer than legs and a hot blue, black and violet colorway, Chaos Monkey is definitely our simian of the day. This rotocast vinyl is available now and limited to 1,000 pieces.

Crappy Cat

Crappy Cat
Buy

We really didn’t get Jamungo’s antisocial Crappy Cat until we saw his interactive Flash game. The 9″ vinyl yuppie cat sports a cardigan, an eyepatch, a can of beer and a six pack ring.

Coarsetoys Jaws

Coarsetoys Jaws
Buy

Coarsetoys’ Jaws Vinyl is available for preorder with a special slate colorway at Rotofugi; there’s a lot to like, from the overall styling to the skateboard, kicks and shark helmet.

Kid Reaper

Kid Reaper
Buy

Coming October 16th, we can’t wait to get our hands on this 15th edition 7″ KidReaper by Andrew Bell. He’s perfect for Halloween, with a fabric cloak, scythe and glow in the dark paint.
