Beware, for Ume Toys' The Grump rises on Friday the 13th

$

0

Friday the 13th is usually considered an unlucky day, but you're in luck if you're a Ume Toys fan. A new resin figure, The Grump, is coming into the Ume Toys shop that day. He looks a bit spooky with that burlap bag head and button eyes, paired with a scary scowl ... but he's also only 3.5-inches tall and not living, so you don't have to worry too much about him doing something evil. I think ...

The Grump has been cast in a run of 13 pieces, each £28 plus shipping and on sale at 9 a.m. GMT (5 a.m. Eastern, 2 a.m. Pacific) this Friday.

And the new Transformers movie title is.. Age of Extinction

There were a lot of rumours recently about the name of the next Transformers movie and Paramount Pictures has finally confirmed that Michael Bay’s 4th film in the series will be called Transformers: Age of Extinction. A kick-ass teaser poster announced the decided title and the movie is set to hit the big screen on June 27, 2014. The poster artwork shows the number 4 fused with half a Decepticon badge lying partly covered on the sand and gives away nothing of the proposed storyline.

So now we know the name, but we have no clue what the storyline is all about. Michael Bay has been trying to keep most of it under wraps but has let slip some details that make it even more tantalizing. Bay has hinted that Dinobots will feature heavily, that there will be an epic chase scene and that the first movie in the second trilogy will be all about endings and new beginnings.

Sales at the box office from the first 3 Transformers were the entertainment equivalent of hitting the jackpot at a site like AndroidCasino.com.au. Transformers exploded onto the big screen and kept on offering a high entertainment factor for the following 2 movies, not once faltering or resting on their laurels as a Paramount franchise. Not one of the movies has sucked and even if you not a fan you have to admit they’ve been really awesome. Here’s hoping the next installment won’t be a letdown.

In addition to Michael Bay spilling a few secrets about the new movie, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura also let slip that the Dinobots will give the audience a lot to be excited about. These new additions to the robot roster are a rather different ballgame, instead of changing from cars to robots they change from robots to metallic dinosaurs, giving us a bit more insight into the Age of Extinction title. He also confirmed that the movie will feature another collection of GM sourced cars including the Corvette Stingray, a Camaro Bumblebee and a f supercars like the Bugatti Veyron and Pagani Huayra.

Shia LeBeouf has handed the lead role over to Mark Wahlberg, so it’s definitely the start of a new era and we’re holding out to see whether it works out just as well as before.

Been quite a while since we've heard from Manuel Heischel from cikcuk, and today we get to see an art project of his = a collaboration with an art space / Kunstquartier Grauer Hof in aschersleben, Germany (read more here).
"i did a wall painting - two big character faces. i used my characteristic triangle as their skin and add eyes and nose. i used two different geomatrical shapes - circle and square - to separate them. right now we are working on up coming projects too. i think at the end of september / in the beginning of october we continue with the next one."

Full Reveal of ONI DON ANTLER by Javier Jiménez (for #ToyKarma4)

Javier-Jimenez-ONI-DONPANTLER-1

Since my earlier feature on the WIP of Javier Jiménez's ONI DON ANTLER, we now have a FRIST LOOK at the finished piece to share, and as well words from Javier himself on the design concept for this piece, exclusively to TOYSREVIL! This one-of-a-kind Oni Don Antler is set to debut at the coming "Toy Karma 4" show @ Rotofugi, launching October 5th!

"…I (had) wanted to make a very Japanese culture-influenced design for Don Antler. I thought that in shape, Don Antler may look similar to a demon, with the horns and stuff, and then I realized that he would look good with the colors of a Japanese demon or Oni.

As you know I love adding tattoos on my toys...cause I love illustration and I see those little tattoos as an opportunity to add little illustrations and designs to the toy. So I made Japanese-influenced designs for the tattoos, too."
Javier-Jimenez-ONI-DONPANTLER-2
"In the front: a skull with a Kabuto (samurai helmet), in both arms you can see Japanese ghosts: a female ghost and a regular ghost with this triangle headband. And in the back, a Kasa-okabe or umbrella ghost. I learned from these ghosts and Japanese monsters when I was a kid, thanks to watching Doraemon...and honestly I feel in love with them, being so different to western mythical creatures."

Kahotan previews Nendoroid Chris Yukine

Kahotan's latest preview is Nendoroid Chris Yukine from Senki Zesshou Symphogear, and boy, does the little lady come with an arsenal. Yes, I know, all the ladies with Symphogear are like that, but Chris' for some reason seems extravagant. Maybe it's the Billion Maiden Gatling Gun firing off or her miniature missile launchers or the Mega Death Quartet missiles that are included ... but yeah, you're getting a ton of firepower (and accessories) here.

Chris pops up for pre-order on Sept. 12 in Japan, so you have about 24 hours to wait until you get the chance to grab her for your collection. Will you add her to your figure army?

All 3 colours ways of Bartholomew Punchyface available now at A Little Stranger

Holly Stanway sends word that the "Bartholomew Punchyface" plush is now in stock in the A Little Stranger shop. Bartholomew ships direct from the UK (No VAT to pay!) at £30 each, or pick up all 3 colourways for the special price of £75. I am kicking myself for now snagging one at Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention where I might have had a chance to get Luke Chueh to sign it… gggrrr
"Bartholomew Punchyface was deigned by artists Luke Chueh and Scott Tolleson and prototyped by A Little Stranger. Chueh's cynical narratives combined with Tolleson's nerd chic culminate into a character anyone who's had a hard time in school can empathize with.

The most pathetic nerd bear you'll ever meet. Buy him to bully him or save him from the other bullies out there."

GNB-AUCTION

Truth be told, I had been in a quandary about posting this slice of news, as it might be deemed "self-serving", but any fear of such notions are greatly outweighed by my humbleness and sincere appreciation for the folks involved in organizing this. GnB Comics is currently conducting a fund drive, whereby there will be sketch auctions as well as art auctions to help raise funds in aid of my dad and his cancer treatments.

Artworks and details can be viewed here on Facebook.

My sincere thanks to the friends and folks at GnB Comics (most notably Leonard) for organizing this fund drive, and to artists Kelvin Chan, Keh Choon Wee, Ean Keat Ong, Ray Toh, Jerry Teo, Shawn Siow, and Noval N. Hernawan, along with Sheldon Goh, Rey Villegas, Pipin Tobing and Adrian Syaf, for their generosity in donating artworks and their time for the effort. We are supremely humbled and honored by your gestures.
