The venerable Easy-Bake Oven was launched to the masses this week on November 4, 1963. An important time in the toy oven’s fifty-plus year history began in 1967 when General Mills acquired Kenner Products.

Do you like ducks? How about Cthulhu? Douglas Prince combines the best of both worlds with Dthulhu, a "rubber duck" version of Cthulhu and it's available through an IndieGoGo campaign.
Whether in the tub or on the shelf, Dthulhu is terrifyingly adorable with his Zoidberg-esque tentacle mouth (less scary than the average Eldritch abomination!) and bat wings. He's billed as being usable in water (although I'm not sure I'd risk it) and will even squeak when squeezed.
The basic version of the figure is available for as low as a US$20 pledge while the glow-in-the-dark version configurations start at US$30. You can get both the normal and GitD version with a US$40 pledge.
The campaign is currently 2 days underway (and has raised 7% of its goal) and will end in another 28 days (ie, right around the beginning of December if you're looking for a Christmas gift that won't be released until February).

It’s time to start thinking of clutter solutions! How about only buying miniature things? I’d start with these little toys from Mirianata. Teeny tiny […]

TakaraTomy's website has announced pricing and release data for the Red Bumblebee Masterpiece figure! The figure - which curiously lacks the toy-accurate faceplate in these photos - will be available in late December for a price of 5,500 Yen... through TakaraTomy's Cybertron Satellite stores. That's going to potentially make things tricky for those that want to grab this. Keep reading to see the photos, then consult with your Japanese middleman of choice!
