Smokin' Gay Empire

Kidrobot has some interesting new toys on their website. First of all there's this Gay Empire Stormtrooper figure:



Apparently this is NOT a toy, but an art object, and your satisfaction is NOT gauranteed! It was produced in Chinatown in New York City, so they are NOT Limited Ed., there are probably a gazillion of them, and "quality may vary." I really appreciate the fact that it is produced by Suckadelic. You know what they say, "You can't beat a good Suck... adelic!"

Speaking of Suckadelic, Kidrobot also has the cool new Limited Ed. Blunt Manana Banana vinyl figure:



And the Limited Ed. Rizla Manana Banana vinyl figure:



This little feller also comes in a glow-in-the-dark version. Smokin'! I'm not sure why they are holding bananas, but they make me wanna' roll one up right here at work. Of course, I don't have anything to roll up or roll with, and I'm sure the doctors around here wouldn't appreciate that sort of thing. Or maybe they would. You never know with doctors these days.

There are a few more new toys on Kidrobot worth a mention, such as the Limited Ed. Zombie Batalion figures, which are limited to 200. There is also a Reebok version, limited to 300, and a Tado version, limited to 100. And last but not least, new Limited Ed. KAWS Companion 5 Years Later vinyl figures that run five hundred bucks a piece, damn! They also comes in brown and grey. No mention of how many there are, but I'm sure there aren't many if they made them that expensive. I'm sure Kidrobot has more new stuff I haven't seen yet, but that's enough for now, and enough to break the bank.
