The month of February is "Billy month" in the land of Blamoville! That's right, Blamo Toys' most popular character "Billy the Rabbit" is getting a full month of limited edition releases all to himself! To start the month off strong, Blamo Toys is releasing "Adventure Billy" the second figure in their line of artist edition Billy figures. Blamo founding member Shayne Maratea's custom Billy for the "Welcome to Blamoville" show was easily the most popular design of the event, selling out in only minutes. Due to this overwhelming popularity Blamo Toys has asked Shayne to produce a very limited run of "Adventure Billys" for their web store!
Each "Adventure Billy" comes covered in tea stained maps, and travels equipped with his own a hand sewn leather satchel. Like the original Billy figure, "Adventure Billy" is 6" tall and hand carved from solid Suar wood. He comes packaged in a hand printed cardboard display box. Limited to only 5 in this design, this figure is sure to go fast. "Adventure Billy" costs $110 + shipping and is currently available through Blamotoys.com HERE!

Frank Kozik has silk-screened posters for the likes of Nirvana, The Beastie Boys and Soundgarden and now whiles away his hours generally trying to redeposit another layer of pop culture over itself and making covetable vinyl toys like the Smorkin’ Labbit.
He joins the Infectious catalog today with his iconic
Che artwork, replacing the face seen on dorm room posters across the world with a skull. He subverts the rallying cry of “Che Vive” with the irrefutable fact that “Che No Vive”. (
He would also like to remind hipsters enamored with the dashing rebel that if he were alive “he would probably either shoot them or put them to work in the cane fields”...) Dead Che will also be making an appearance at San Diego Comic Con in 2010 as a vinyl toy, check out it's evolution on SpankyStokes

Youth lifestyle brand
Hurley is championing the underground through its clothing collaborations, Hurley Art editorial brand, and gallery shows, demonstrating its long-running commitment to outsider and cutting edge art. New features and interviews from Hurley Art include Francesco LoCastro, Gary Baseman and Miso, which can be viewed at
Hurley.com. It is pretty cool in my opinion that mass market companies like Hurley are embracing this art culture and to get artists like the ones above on board is a huge shot in the arm to our community!
FRANCESCO LOCASTROFrancesco LoCastro’s new paintings are a pulsating mix between abstract eruptions and pop-infused realism.
GARY BASEMANPainter, illustrator and toy designer Gary Baseman takes us inside his magically creepy world with this one-on-one interview at his home studio.
MISOMiso’s figures, often vulnerable and dependent on their environments, sometimes resemble strange sheep-like specimens.

Soylent Green is a 1973 American science fiction film depicting a dystopian future in which overpopulation leads to depleted resources, which in turn leads to widespread unemployment and poverty. Real fruit, vegetables and meat are rare, expensive commodities, and much of the population survives on processed food rations, including "soylent green" wafers... so why not make a shirt about 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!

Neon Monster wants to make someone’s Valentine’s Day soft and fuzzy. That’s right, friends: Don’t get fleeced by DeBeers this year; get some recycled soda pop bottles spun into fleecy softness and melded into Mitchness instead because they are giving away a pair of Mitch plushes to a randomly chosen Neon Monster Twitter follower who re-tweets
this message (or
this one with the almighty hashtag). Don't delay on this folks, and get tweeting... more info can be found
HERE!
