MAD's Black Friday BB's...so sweet!

Just posted up on MAD's flickr...and these pics got me super excited!!!!! These are custom 5" Mad*l's. Each hand sprayed, brushed, markered, numbered, signed by MAD. He did this for his Subbers, as well as a lucky few that were fortunate enough to snag one up as a blind purchase on the KR forum! MAD has been really good about getting the forum commnity involved with contests and blind-box purchases this year, and I, just like alot of people await the next blind-box to pop up unknowlingly.

Infectious Art - Kevin Tong

Here is the latest from Infectious, some really groovy art from LA rock poster artist Kevin Tong! Today he hits the trifecta - all three of his recent open submission designs are being added to the catalog.

A little about Kevin from Infectious:

Kevin Tong is based in LA where he creates comics, designs toys and illustrates beautiful rock posters for the likes of The Shins, Jenny Lewis and MGMT. Kevin drew inspiration from Citizen Kane's snow globe, James Cameron's movie The Abyss and the space program of the 1970s for his Infectious art.

You can actually see a full interview up on the Infectious site, as well as purchase this awesome art for your tech stuff! Infectious never ceases to amaze me...really cool stuff that they keep pumping into the marketplace!

Stefan Bucher's Daily Monster #96

From Stefan's Blog:

Monster 96 doesn't enjoy being bossed around. It's cranky. It doesn't want to perform silly little tricks. It just wants everybody to let it be. Why is it so grumpy, though? Did something happen? Is it not getting enough sleep? Is it not eating right? Problems at home? Or at work? Or is it just in 96's nature to be a bit sour. What do you think is going on here?

Pocket Munny and UK Dunny releases by TrIclops

Here is yet another great custos done for the UK Dunny release today done by Triclops Studio. This denim wearing piece of vinyl was customized for the party at Selfridges in London tonight.

Here is some ifo from Triclops blog:

At last, the day we have all been waiting for is upon us... Kidrobot are taking over a substantial corner of the London Selfridges store on Oxford Street and this piece Pocket Munny will be amongst other artist custom Mega Munnys up for sale. (A great big Cloppy thanks goes to Auntie Mary for her supremo sewing machine skills on the denim outfit for this one, definitely worth the dog walking exchange as payment over Christmas!) Tonight from 6pm is the launch party for the UK Dunny Series at Selfridges : we'll be there, trying to hide in a quiet corner, probably without much success and doling out our Clop Dollars(above)...

I dig the simplicity of this design, and I kinda feel sorry for this guy...he almost looks like he is being choked by that belt...aggggggg, and could almost pass for the "Gimp's" cousin from Pulp Fiction.

Also...they have 2 designs ( Rainy London & T*A*S*H ) featured in the UK Artist Series. Antother thing to note, Triclops will be on hand to hopefully give away Xclusive Puddle & Gravy Dunny bases to those lucky peepz who aquire a Triclops Dunny tonight!

TADO - 4' Tall Dunny for UK release**UPDATE**

Here is an awesome video, and pics of the 4' tall Dunny, that can be yours for £12,000...and it looks like you can't even tell what it is going to be( on purpose???), and as stated on Tado's flickr "Rather annoyingly our camera battery died half way through the day - grrr!! lots and lots of hair dryer action going on..." So all we get is this little snipet!

Look at the size of that thing...and the crate that it came in...crazy big. It sure would be cool if I were able to go over to the UK for this release, but alas no money, shoot I can't even go to NYCC let alone across the pond, but maybe someday!

**Update** Thanks to KR board member markwmohr for posting up this picture of the dunny on a more refined level...yet it is not complete as of now, but I am sure will be done before this evenings festivities!
