A Little Bit On The Lego Graffiti Side: This sick little stop motion video of a LEGO man getting up on a train was made for a school project by Elvisistnochamleben. The photo snaps at the end are a nice subtle touch.

Another random encounter with Final Fantasy's creatures
Hey, I keep forgetting about series like this from SQUARE ENIX. I thought their Final Fantasy world only consisted of Cloud and Sephiroth but they are proving me wrong with the release of the fourth installment of their Final Fantasy Creatures series.
The Final Fantasy Creatures series are miniature figures of the various tough monsters from the Final Fantasy world usually consisting of boss monsters or summons. So if you were hoping for a Goblin from Final Fantasy or a Were-Rat from Final Fantasy VI, sorry. What this set has for you though is mighty Omega Weapon and King Behemoth from Final Fantasy VIII, the Final Fantasy X version of Malboro, Bahamut Fury from the Crisis Core; Final Fantasy VII, and the Shadow Creeper from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. It's not specified if the Shadow Creeper is from the version of Advent Children that has more dirt or not.
The Final Fantasy Creatures Vol. 4 comes in a box of 8 figures and is retailing for ¥7,040 with a release date set for June, 2012. I would love to see a villains collection by SQUARE ENIX, something that is not just Sephiroth who Nomura can't stop having steamy fantasies of. Cripes, there was the Dissidia: Final Fantasy collection they started which could have easily gave us the villains, too. Also, why does Final Fantasy USA: Mystic Quest get no love? Just saying...

Breeanzz's newest Beat-Up Boxer is one Black Valentine
Valentine's Day is turning out to be quite a popular day for new figure releases, as we have yet another one to add to the pile. Breeanzz (a.k.a. Brian Harsanto) has partnered with TOYSREVIL to release a limited "Black Valentine" version of his Beat-Up Boxer (produced by MyTummyToys). The 10-inch resin figure, limited to 10 pieces, comes with a fabric robe (featuring the TOYSREVIL logo), a limited edition signed Giclee print, a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity and a laser die-cut box cover with a "croc texture" on the outside. It's a very, very nice colorway of a piece I've liked for quite some time.
The newest Beat-Up Boxer is priced at US$180 at the TOYSREVIL shop. While these fellows sold out in seconds when they went up for order today, there's still a few pending payments, and that could mean one or two will appear in the shop on Friday, Feb. 17. Keep an eye out there to see if Beat-Up pops up!

Chill out, here's Brutherford Industries' Ice Scream Man
Say hello to New Jersey's Brutherford Industries and their first official release, Ice Scream Man! Standing 7.5 inches tall (the same size as an actual ice cream cone), the Ice Scream Man "came to Brutherford in a vision after a freak accident involving a toilet and a clock." He's pure, rotocasted evil, apparently as well, and available in two flavors currently: Villainous Vanilla and Spiteful Strawberry. the latter limited to 125 pieces.
You can pick the made-in-the-USA Ice Scream Man in the Brutherford Industries store for US$50 (Vanilla) or US$75 (Strawberry). Or, for US$30, you can get the cool little screen print in the gallery featuring the Ice Scream Man. It's great to see another toy maker appear, especially one that's making his own toys.
