imited to just 20 pieces! All prints come in Custom envelopes... and as an added bonus,

The FatCap Series 3 release is finally HERE, and in a few cases has already hit the ground running - depending on your timezone - but... if you are still on the fence abut what to do this evening, why not go celebrate in style by attending your
local trading and release party!!! Remember that if you buy a case, there are few exclusives, and just like a few previous blind-box releases they are going to be region specific. North American locations will have a super limited amount of Sket One’s “Cover The Cap” GOLD edition, and everywhere else will have the endangered design by Scribe dubbed “Almost Gone”! Amongst those rare designs, this series is looking really fresh!
This 3rd series features
18 rad designs by artists new and old... and that is awesome to see! The artists that are in the series include:
Devious, Flying Fortress, Jon Paul Kaiser, Julie West, KaNO, Kronk, MCA, Montana Colors, Pez, Queen Andrea, Quisp, Scribe, Shok 1, and
Sket One! Check out that checklist above, and for a full list of trading parties... hit the link
HERE! I will be at the trading party at
Gunnzo in San Diego... and hope to see all my vinyl heads there, this should be fun... and I might even buy up a few blind-boxes myself as I am really digging this series!

Last week we posted a little info about an upcoming release from
Ron English, and we told you we would follow up with another post when we got more info... well, we have that info... so here we go! Dubbed "Fat Tony" this awesome 9" tall vinyl figure, with articulated arms from English is by far my favorite figure from him to date, and based on a guerilla cereal box advertising campaign that Ron placed on some super market shelves a while back... they have made the leap from 2D to 3D! According to the press release "
Introducing Fat Tony: A Ton of Tiger with a Short Shelf Life The 100% Nutrition-Free Vinyl Toy. Sugary cereals captured the hearts of Young America by giving away cheap toys made in China in every box. This prize at the bottom of the box actually ate the cereal. A delicious shortcut to attention deficit disorder!"
Above is the "OG" colorway which is limited to
500 pieces is set to
retail for just $60, a great deal if you ask me... but does anyone else notice that the scarf around Tony's neck is orange and not red... I wonder if the above photo is the final product, if it is... that's a big mistake in my book as it looks like a skin-scarf, weird. Look for these to pop up in most all designer vinyl retail locations worldwide.

I have been slacking on my coverage of London's Toy Fair 2012 -more posts to come - but I have been keeping track via
Unbox Industries Twitter stream over the past few days, and I gotta say there are some really fun new figures coming out that they are producing. One of which we have covered multiple times
HERE and
HERE is
Jeff Lamm's upcoming "Spike Wad" figure... which by the way made his way into the wild and was on display at LTF (
pictured to the left). This character is a familiar face if you follow Jeff's gig poster work and according to Jeff he has four arms, shipped with two front ones unattached so they fit in the bag... and he will be interchangeable with the other Unbox toys... meaning 'M5 BRAVO' & 'STEE-GAR' will have a buddy :-) According to Jeff "
Spike Wad is a fairly new large mutant spider. It's origins are unknown, some say it first appeared in the area of the Large Hadron Collider on the border of France and Switzerland. It was given the military nomenclature "Spider Quad" which was shortened to "Spi-Quad" and finally "Spike Wad"." You gotta love the look of this intergalactic being... and check out that under-bite, he's adorable, and fierce all wrapped into one 4 armed figure! There is still no word on a release... but after seeing paint laid down on vinyl... we can't be too far away now!
