Kaiju Taro El Pollo Fiebre - Chicken Fever

How cool are these vinyl toys by Kaiju Taro based on Chickens!!! There are two versions, the Uno Dos Tres and the Utimo, with the Ultiimo being the highlight of the 2 for me. How often do you see a Chicken mutant dressed as a Mexican Wrestler. Both figures are coming out soon and are limited to 20 for the Uno Dos Tres and 30 for the Ultimo [via Toyboy Studios]

Metallon - PhuEk’s New Custom Nade

PhuEk! has a new custom and as usual has failed to disappoint, IMO. I love the amount of detail that goes into these customs and the metallic look of many of the designs. I especially like the weathering that has been added to the look giving it a “used” or war-beaten battle droid look. Once again, the level of imagination has amazed! Thanks PhuEk! For the new info and images!

Carl Jones’s Hoodiez from the Vinyl ‘Hood…

From the illustrator and producer of the Boondocks come Hoodiez a new set of vinyls due out in late April. These guys are really cool caricatures and I know any fan of Carl’s style will not want to miss out on any one of these. My favorite is Boogie with his ‘fridge body and disproportionate head. Each one is very unique making it a must to collect each one of the whole gang. The sizes range from an average 4″ to a whopping 8.5″ (Boogie).

Shiitakes, Roasted, Toasted or Raw?

New Shiitake images by Erick Scarecrow have been revealed to me recently. As you can see from them being all packaged up nicely… they are getting close to being released, though the date remains elusive. This sneak peek will have to be enough to fill your appetite for the odd little mushrooms. Keep an eye out for the interview with Erick too… I think you’ll find it interesting.
