BJ HAMMER ROTO FIGURE ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: BJ Hammer is the first figure from the Brothersjoker figure line, by design house Brothersfree. Three variants are featured. Sorry, the very cool twelve-inch version is not for sale.
The full color version was originally planned for April's Toycon in a limited edition of 250 pieces. Due to the show's cancellation, it will most likely be delayed until August's Toycon show.
BJ Hammer in monotone was produced for Japan's Wonder Festival, and limited to 150 pieces only.
The black and white edition has been produced in conjunction with Hong Kong's East Touch Magazine, in celebration of their 400th issue. Ultra rare, limited to 50 pieces.
CI BOYS DESTROYER RE-LAUNCH ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: IT Rangers has released their very cool Destroyer on its own, with vehicle and gun only. Now, you can make your entire collection of 3" CI Boys wreak havoc in their own rides.
FULLTIMEEBAYER #3: SO-FULL SAM ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Old Skool & Co. has released its third snowboarder figure. So-Full Sam features crazy detail, a blue board and a companion dog (with canine saddle bags). A Hot Toys exclusive, limited to 50 pieces only.
SANTASTIC'S HASHEEME VINYL ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Japanese artist Santa Inoue's latest figure, based on the statue at the Santastic store in Japan. Produced by Gangu and Hong Kong's How2Work Production House, Hasheeme will be available mid-May.
MICHAEL LAU, MAHARISHI AND MEDICOM ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Check out the blow-by-blow photos of Michael Lau, custom designing a NO WAR T-shirt for Maharishi's Hardy (he's the one on the floor, protesting the Iraq invasion). They're preparing to make a limited edition crossover shirt-could this be the pattern of mass production?
Maharishi is also tight with Medicom, and has produced a limited edition Kubrick T-shirt. Crossover figures are in the works, too.
The UK design house also plans to open a shop in London just for toys, including a full floor dedicated to Michael Lau figures. God bless Maharishi!
