Well, it’s that time of year again, it’s almost San Diego Comic Con time! Sadly, Leah and myself do not know if we’re headed back out there again this year yet (fingers crossed that we will be!), but that doesn’t mean that we can’t get excited for all of the exclusives that will be on hand! First up this year, and almost every year, is Kidrobot, who has decided to show off their 2012 exclusives as silhouettes, which is quite sleek! First up on Wednesday, Preview Night, we have the pre-release of the Futurama Hypnotoad vinyl figure, which will retail for $39.95 and will be available at Kidrobot retailers and online starting on August 2nd. Also on Preview Night we will see the release of the SDCC exclusive Simpsons Homer Buddha figure, which will be an edition of 500 pieces retailing for $50 each.
Thursday, the first day of the con, has the first release and signing with Chuckboy’s SDCC Exclusive Cyborg 7-inch Labbit Excelsior Edition, which will be an edition of 300 pieces retailing for $75 each and Chuckboy himself will be on hand to sign them. Friday follows this up with Andrew Bell’s signing for the Mahākāla Dunny Prosperity Edition, which is also an SDCC Exclusive and a run of 300 pieces, but this 8″ Dunny will cost a pretty penny — he retails for $100. Featuring four arms, a staff, a crown, and a removable belt, this is one detailed Dunny, but considering having seen the Dunny 2012 design that it is based upon, I think I’ll be passing on this as it’s just not something I’d want to own for $100 and way too distant from Andrew Bell’s usual style. Saturday sees the release of Huck Gee’s Skullslinger Tuco Edition, an 11 inch tall vinyl piece presumably with Huck Gee’s classic skullhead design, a long flowing cape, some of Huck’s usual wings, and presumably a gun somewhere. Tuco will retail for $100 and will also be an edition of 300 pieces and have a signing accompanying him as well.
Last, but not least, Sunday will have a special event featuring Kidrobot’s Ryan the Wheelbarrow who will be live screen printing shirts for people in whatever color and style they request. There will only be 78 shirts on hand and they will go for $38, so if you want one, I’d suggest getting in line pretty early as these are sure to go fast! All signings and events will take place at Kidrobot’s booth (#4529) from 12PM-2PM and will most likely require wristbands like previous years to keep things in order. Personally, there’s not much here that I’m excited for outside of the Hypnotoad, whom I will most likely just get after the convention as he is a general release, and the Chuckboy Labbit as I love the cyborg Dunny that he did and I know that this Labbit will come out amazing. Well, that seems to be the rundown for Kidrobot this year! What are you looking forward to picking up or are you sick of the same people being brought back to do the same things year after year? Let us know in the comments below!

The duo, who have been working together for about a year now, and both of whom are from the New York area, decided to bring it big and have lots of tie ins with comics and New York in general. From the amazing skulls in the header of Batman, the Joker, Spider-Man, and others, to more traditional pieces like a Munny with an apple for its head (which sadly sold as I was taking these shots and didn’t get to take a picture of it), there was something for everyone on hand.</p> <p>The gorgeous skulls in the header also came in large size pieces (about 5″ or so), and smaller charm sized pieces and I really can’t wait to see more in that line. NYCC also saw the release of their hand sculpted and resin cast pieces called the Dust Mitez, which are, admittedly, quite adorable. Definitely give the gallery below a look through and be sure to keep an eye on these guys over the months and years to come as they produce some amazing stuff!</p>](http://www.plastikitty.com/wp-content/uploads/NYCC2012BadApplezIncBoothOverviewHeader.jpg "NYCC 2012: Bad Applez Inc.

First up is the new Crow Crow Bear Mod featuring a green on green colorway and is the latest of the Crow Crow Bear figures. This run of 26 pieces is up for sale now in the <a href="http://esctoy.limitedpressing.com/products/17516" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','http://esctoy.limitedpressing.com']);" target="_blank">ESCToy webstore</a> for $75.00 each with $8.00 shipping within the United States. Personally, as much as I love Crow Crow Bear, I’m on the fence with this release as I’m not really a fan of the greens used here, but it does seem to match well with the <a href="http://www.plastikitty.com/home/esctoys-nycc-exclusives" target="_blank">NYCC green Yarn Shroom</a>, so it may wind up in my collection for that alone.</p> <p>Next up is the now low-stock Chap Lynn Ghoul colorway of the Chap Lynn figure, which is quite spooky! Standing at 8″ tall, this 11-piece-run-figure seems quite fitting with the recent “start of the zombie apocalypse” that has been happening lately and the greens and purples look great together. If you want to terrorize the other figures in your collection, you can also grab Chap Lynn Ghoul from the <a href="http://esctoy.limitedpressing.com/products/17381" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','http://esctoy.limitedpressing.com']);" target="_blank">ESCToy webstore</a>.</p> <p>What do you readers think about these latest releases?

This yellow-green colorway is quite unique and interesting looking and I love that it is one solid color; it looks like a prototype! Last, but not least, is the custom painted 1 off Neo-Tokyo Drake, which is already out of stock. I love the crazy purple and red color scheme here and wish that this figure were actually put in production, but sadly it never will be.

Now, we have word from <a href="http://erickscarecrow.blogspot.com/" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','http://erickscarecrow.blogspot.com']);" target="_blank">Erick Scarecrow</a> and <a href="http://esctoy.com/" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','http://esctoy.com']);" target="_blank">ESCToy</a> that the next Mermadi release will be the second colorway of the <a href="http://www.plastikitty.com/home/erick-scarecrows-mermadi-and-others-going-up-for-order" target="_blank">first sculpt of her</a>. This all pink colorway of Mermadi features lots of different shades of pink and a big bubblegum wave to go along with her and is one unique colorway. There’s no word on when or how much this Mermadi will release for, but we <em>do</em> know that it will most certainly release at some point this week on the <a href="http://esctoy.limitedpressing.com/products/14179" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','http://esctoy.limitedpressing.com']);" target="_blank">ESCToy webstore</a> and that it will also be limited to only 5 pieces, so act fast if you want to try to catch this rare animal! I hope we see the new Mermadi sculpt release next, but what do you think, do you like the original sculpt or new sculpt better?
