So I just became privy to the work of Ryan aka Brutherford of
Brutherford Industries, and I gotta tell you all... I am so stoked to be sharing this with you because what he has going on is something special! His background is in design and manufacturing... in fact that's his full time gig... knowing the tools of the trade - so to speak - he has branched out recently to fulfill his own artistic needs with his own personal designs! He has been an avid collector for many years and has recently got into the manufacturing side of designer toy scene, which leads me to his awesome product that he has been working on dubbed the "
Ice Scream Man"! These rotocast urethane figures are all made by Ryan in his secret hideout, based in North Jersey, with the help of his wife... they have pumped out a low volume of limited runs of this rad new figure!
These figures are in the final stages, and as you can see from the above images... they are going to be the full package, and in a few select colorways! As it stands right now, it seems as though the "
Strawberry" edition will be released first, and will be limited to
125 pieces, and will
retail for around $75. On deck will also be "
Mint" and "
Chocolate" limited to 125 pieces as well, along with a "
Vanilla" edition that will be an open run for around the $50 range. It also look as though there maybe interchangeable "cones"... so AWESOME! I am really excited to find out more about this figure/release, and if you all want to be in the know... you can follow Ryan on Twitter
HERE, and also visit his website
HERE to sign up for his mailing list! He also mentions other projects are in the works... I am 100% in!

The folks over at
UNKL just posted up on their Facebook a rather intriguing new product that their friends at Portland based company,
Grove, made for them... but unfortunately for all of us, this particular all wooden iPhone case featuring UNKL's Hazmapo figure is not for sale. Although, I would say if demand is high enough, maybe
Grove would open up a run of these. In any case (get it) this iPhone case turned out awesome, and it looks like the folks over at Grove have a pretty extensive product category that can wet yer whistle until our Hazmapo friend gets made. Oh, and if you feel like letting UNKL know how much you love this, visit them on their
Facebook page and LIKE them!

It's really tough to see another designer vinyl shop close its doors, and Arizona's own
Red Hot Robot just announced that they have called it quits. After 4.5 years of serving the vinyl community in so many capacities such as retail and art shows, they are closing up their shop for good, and because of this they are giving all you Arizona residents
20% off all remaining merchandise... in a cash and carry fashion. Their address is above, so head on out and pick some stuff up! We here at SS.com wish Jason and the rest of the folks involved with RHR the very best, and to always remember that when one door closes, another opens.

Tribaltoy, who specializes in vinyl toys and illustrations based on African sculptures and art... well now they just announced that this really stylized figure is now out in a very clean looking blue colorway! This
7.5" tall figure is simple and has
three points of articulation (
Head, Arms, Legs) The original artwork appears on the packaging... making this a really nice complete package. This "Blue" version is
limited to 250 pieces worldwide and is
retailing for only $40... a great deal if you ask me! It can be picked up
HERE, and while you are there check out some of the other products that will hopefully be releasing soon!

It looks like
Instagram is the place where artists post up teasers of their work now, as just yesterday we put up a post from
Ferg showing off a few goodies, and today
MAD is on the teaser bandwagon with a brand new 'Modern Hero' design concept! Now these are just sketches, pretty detailed ones at that... and if you look close enough, it appears to be a large scale coin bank concept, and just look at the interchangeable currency... RAD! Details on this are still very loose... but we may end up seeing 'Modern Hero' in 2012... and that wouldn't make me MAD at all :-)
