Fluff Critter & Stuff - Cult Mini-Figures

I'm just loving this monstrosity from Cult Mini-Figures(Steve Moffatt)! A very kind gift & a very epic custom toy! Just loving this crazy 'Fluff Critter'(the name I've gone with on this crazy freak)!

One of two toys I received from Cult Mini-Figures & just an incredibly insane toy! You can read more about the other toy in more detail here: Droogimus Prime & Stuff - Cult Mini-Figures

I've always found picket sign toys appealing & after seeing a similar critter Steve made(which is currently owned by The Toy Finder), I had to have one & pleaded for my own fluff monster!

I couldn't be happier with the result! This thing is mental(& that's a good thing)! Fluffy, asymmetrical, protesting humanity & one of a kind. Really couldn't ask for more!

1:6 scale latex 'Seventy Five' Kirk Mask - Creations Unearthed

I'm useless & meant to blog about this more then a week ago, but hey, I'm here now!
Recently Creations Unearthed held a awesome contest to win a 1:6 scale latex 'Seventy Five' Kirk mask. A 1:6 version of the 1975 Captain Kirk latex mask, which was the mask used(painted white) in Halloween(1978) & Halloween II(1981). I just happened to be the lucky winner!!! This little mask it just disturbing & I love it & I'm so damn happy I won!

I'm working on a nice little display for my new mini mask, though so far all I've ordered is a small acrylic box for it. But i have other plans & it should look epic eventually! For now I have to tragically leave it boxed until I've sorted out my display issues. Endless problem around here, but in this case as the item is latex, I absolutely INSIST on an in-closed display before I allow this mask to see the light of day(beyond a few quick photos that is :P)!

I love Creations Unearthed. Their figurines are some of the most detailed I've seen in my life! A major focus on horror films(which honestly, what's not to love about that?) & the quality is just overwhelming. You can find Creations Unearthed on Facebook or on their website. However the 1:6 Kirk mask was ONLY available through the giveaway, so you're out of luck on this creepy item! :P

Rosco - Fantastisch

Today I bring you Rosco by Fantastisch. An adorable low-poly 'bear with bow-tie' design! Fantastisch is Bela Álvarez & Oscar Juárez(I believe Bela designed Rosco), lovely people & they helped me with my purchase!

I love low-poly designs. They're a brilliant way to capture an idea, with minimal distraction by excessive detail. Why be excessive, when simplicity can be so effective? I had to have a Rosco!

The packaging was simple, but quite lovely! A little paper bag & Rosco cardboard cut-outs! The postcards were nice extras too!

I was persuaded to order when I did, as the black Rosco was running low on stock(now out of stock) & well, I really wanted Rosco in black! However, both Rosco & his bow-tie are available in six different colours! I picked the yellow bow-tie. I'm eager to buy a yellow Rosco with black bow-tie as well. A matching pair would be adorable!

I think Fantastisch have some amazing design ideas & Rosco is proof of that, I'm excited to see what else they bring to the toy world in the future! You can find them & follow their work on facebook & Instagram.

Plague Oracle - Smoke Veil Edition - Daniel Yu

Continuing my obsession with the work of Daniel Yu, I received my 2nd Plague Oracle today. The Plague Oracle sculpt is my latest favourite from Daniel Yu, they go beautifully with my past Daniel Yu acquisitions & the little hand accessories are just an awesome little bonus!
This latest Plague Oracle is part of Daniels recent 'Smoke Veil' series. Each figure was limited to 20 pieces.

I'm a huge fan on Daniels blank editions. As much as I also greatly respect his skill with paint, sometimes I think it distracts from the beauty & detail of his sculpting. Also being a fan of black & red, in this particular case I couldn't resist adding to my collection.

Differing from my first Plague Oracle which came with a mini skull accessory, this new one includes 3 accessories! A anatomical heart, a rose & a little pile of poo! These accessories are no exception in regards to Daniels amazing attention to detail. My photos do not do them justice!

I cannot wait to add more Plague Oracles to my collection in the future! I'm also eager to see what new characters Daniel Yu will add to his repertoire!
For those hoping to add any of the 'shadow veil' editons to their own collection - Darwin(the fox) has sold out, but the other 3 designs are still currently available in Daniels store here.

Tinbot [ black, lady ]

Somewhere I saw a picture of a Tinbot(probably one of the many people I follow on Facebook) & instantly needed one in my life! They're manufactured by Trendex, a company who create many fun & innovative designs!
The Tinbots are so cheap that money wasn't an object, but colour decisions can be difficult & currently Tinbot World offer 4 versions of this awesome concept!

Of course, being me, I went with the orange & black option(really the decision wasn't that difficult, I'm bias on the subject of orange :P). It's one of the 'lady' Tinbots, with a rather cute little robot face! Even the packaging(& business card!) are perfectly paired to the toys!

The Tinbots are about 2x1.5x1inches when all packed away in their tins. They consist of 6 pieces. 5 magnetised body parts & the tin. They're also super poseable(tragically I'm not the most creative photographer :P)!

This really is just a super fun toy! If i had more I could mix & match the pieces too! I'm tempted to buy more already & I hope for many more colour options in the future!
For less then $10 including shipping, this is definitely a favourite amongst my recent acquisitions!

Clect - Collect Together

I want to share with all my readers a great collecting resource!
Clect is the newest thing in online collecting. It's still a pretty young website, evolving & getting better all the time! I've been a member pretty much since the beginning & the site just continues to improve(they're also always willing to take any suggestions you might have!) . A major focus on pop culture specifically. It's basically the social media collecting platform we all need!

The guys at Clect have been working tirelessly to get their cell phone apps up & running too! You can find the iphone app Here, you can also sign up to to be notified when the Android app is ready Here.

Now I want to discuss some specifics.
On Clect you can create 'Cards' & 'Packs'. Uploading 'Cards' is super easy(& the site has walk-through tours to help you learn!). Upload the image, title it, give it a story & choose if it's private or public. Done! Hashtagging is also encouraged :P
You can also add your 'Cards' to 'Packs'. You can create your own new 'Packs', or add your 'Cards' to existing public 'Packs'(you can also make private ones!). They're a great way to share more focused collections, or to find people with similar tastes to your own!

The 'Packs' are one of my favourite features on Clect. I love sharing my collection with others & it's always amazing when I find people who can appreciate the stuff I have! The Packs are constantly being fine-tuned, I expect they'll be a favourite amongst most Clect users soon enough.
Currently my favourite Packs are 'Resin & Vinyl Toys' & 'Autographs!'. They're both public & I've love to see them grow! If you're a member & have any suitable Cards to add to my Packs that would be fantastic & I look forward to all contributions!

So come on! What are you waiting for? If you haven't joined yet just click here:

Kinder Surprise - Star Wars Ships

Now, generally I'm not big on Star Wars stuff(it's everywhere, tends to kill any need I might feel), but the combination of chocolate & toys is hard to resist. When a friend of mine shared a photo of one of these on Facebook, well I was greatly amused & needed to own them!

I'm a huge fan of Kinder chocolate, but even the most hardened chocolate fan will get sick off hunting down a toy set. It took me at least 30 eggs, to find 9 toys. The Stormtrooper kept evading me!

Thankfully Kinder Surprise rarely bring out toys I want, these were an exception(even helping my Mum put together a set as well)! I think I'm officially over Kinder chocolate for a while!

Now I just need to figure out what to do with all my spares! I really rather hate blind-box hunting, but these were worth the effort... & chocolate!
