Andrew Bell BIC BUDDY Giveaway...
If you tried to snag up one of Andrew Bell's AP Kidreapers and had no luck... hopefully this will soften the blow of defeat for you. Andrew was kind enough to send me one of his BIC Buddy's and I am going to be giving this away. This contest is going to be a quick one, and all you need to do is leave a comment below in this post (one comment per person) on what you are going to be for Halloween, and if you aren't going to dress up, make something up :-) . This contest will be done tomorrow morning when I wake up and I will pick it at random. Have fun, and I look forward to reading all of your comments! Oh and if you feel like saying thanks to Andrew, hit him up on Twitter @deadzebra!

***The contest is over now***
Thanks to all that entered and by assigning numbers to all the replies and by using a random number generator on the internet my computer picked biz1904 as the winner with his funny yet all to real comment "I'll be getting up and going to work on cars which I normally do just not on a Saturday!! let alone on Halloween Saturday. So that I can pay my rent and maybe, maybe be able to buy my self a new figure by January. oh and in closing F the I.R.S." No worries biz1904, SpankyStokes got you covered on a new vinyl toy before January,and it won't cost you a dime! Thanks again to all that entered, and have fun tonight!

Monster Cutie Shenami by AZM
This little monster need your help, so if you like the design, hit up Patch Together to vote on it to put this baby into production. This is really cool and reminds me of DGPH meets Chris Lee's Mellow. Also if you dig what you see you can also view more work from the artist via his site HERE!

Stefan Bucher's Daily Monster #70
Stefan is a super talented artist, and a super cool guy to boot! You can now follow all of his updates via his Twitter profile HERE, not on Twitter yet? Get a move on!
From Stefan's Blog:
Monster 70 is, indeed, a Seventies Monster. Or so it seems from his polyester wardrobe. What was he thinking? But he seems of good cheer, so that's something. What do you think he's up to? Is he getting ready to entertain? Is he trying to sell you something? What's his angle? Please take a minute to give us the Better Business Bureau report on Number 70 here!

TRAP by Tom Ledin on Teefury
Hahaha, Star Wars humor... gotta love it!! TeeFury is an awesome website that sells T-shirts for $9 a pop...the only catch is that it is only on sale for 24hours and then the next T-shirt is posted up! I have seen awesome shirts by some amazing artists on here and the total purchase price is $11. So that is $9 for the Tee and $2 for the shipping...that is an awesome deal that can't be beat! I will try and post the shirts up daily, or you can go visit the site yourself!
Money does go back to the artist and after today, this t-shirt will be Gone FOREVER! Today artist earns $1 for every tee sold. So make sure you get over there if yer diggin the design!

2" Jumping Brain Figures from TOY2R
What would Halloween be without a nod to the all mighty Brain? So important to the mythos of mad scientists, zombies and other grey matter entities.
Toy2R scares up this peek at the new line of 2" Jumping Brains mini figures created by Emilio Garcia. Delightfully being greeted by one of Emilio's larger resin cousins - this new smaller edition will be dropping towards the end of the year. Blind boxed in an array of various colors and mystery versions - this is the first release of a long line of Brains coming from Emilio and Toy2R.
Brainy Figures indeed! Happy Halloween!

Pierce The Human Pincushion & Nathan The Dog-Faced Boy from Jared Deal
This sought after "Red" Edition of Jared Deal's rad carnival figures are now available through DKE toys and it is a limited edition of only 250 PCS, and at $45.00 for the set of 2 figures, you can't go wrong! Pierce stands aprox. 5.5" tall while Nathan stands at 4" and unlike the previous Pierce and Nathan colorways this set does NOT come with a mini print, but come-on these figures are AWESOME, who needs a print :-)!
A little background on this dynamic duo:
"Pierce and Dogboy are the Carney family mischief makers! Pierce is the quintessential bratty younger brother, and Dogboy is Pierce's pal, a loving pet, and... a fur covered wingman! Pierce relishes his gross-out gig as "The Human Pincushion" in the family sideshow act. (He's got more holes than a boardwalk putt-putt course). When Dogboy isn't doing double duty as the family's household hound, and Pierce's partner in crime, he wows the crowds at Barker's sideshow with his furry face and outrageous animal antics!"
