NECA and the Weinstein Company have agreed to produce Django Unchained consumer products! The NECA Django Unchained license will be used to make action figures (we love action figures), accessories, and apparel for Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming film “Django Unchained”. While the movie is going to be released this Christmas, we can expect the initial product
Toy customizer KodyKoala remixed Hungry Hungry Hippos with the Bowser and the Koopa Kids from the Mario games. He even went the extra mile by making the main playing field look like lava and the ridges of the game look like a castle straight from the games!
As a dude who appreciates awesome movies and likes to dress nice, I can totally appreciate this. Candice Milon takes iconic movie outfits, folds them up against colored backdrops, and then photographs them. Sounds so simple that I wish I’d thought of it first.
Back to the Future, A Clockwork Orange, and Forrest Gump can be seen up top. Check out more over on Vlamboyant.
Arvalis from deviantART made these illustrations of creepily realistic Pokémon dinosaurs and there’s even a trainer in there for scale. Loving the Druddigon with the half-devoured Deerling corpse behind it.
Peep it: More Pokémon stuff
Yesterday came the announcement of what Kidrobot was planning for its 10th anniversary celebration. Today brings us the photos and a bit more info on what exactly will be for purchase:
Any of these releases catch your eye, Tomopeeps? I'm thinking about the KRNY 'Bot myself ...
It’s pretty much a well-known fact that Globe’s Bantam Cruiser boards are the proverbial shiznit. Although summer’s almost over, there’s still time to cruise your streets during the fall before snow starts to drop. These all new clear versions of the popular boards are by far their sickest yet — expecially that Albotas blue one!
Pre-order on in clear, green, orange, blue, red, or black for $109.95.

Oreimo fans should be quite happy with at least one of the new pre-orders from this morning, a brand spanking new Kirino Kousaka statue from Kotobukiya! Previewed on Kotobukiya's blog, Kirino is posed in the middle of kicking her summer clothes off so she can go for a swim. Quite literally kicking, in fact, but that seems to fit her personality pretty well, I think! It's also worth noting that she'll be a 1/7-scale figure, so not too tiny but not too large either. It's a nice, active pose, too, and one we don't really get to see in a figure too often.
Kirino is a January release (perfect timing for a swimsuit figure!) at ¥6,800. Oreimo fans ... you thinking of adding her to your collections/shrines/etc.?

To further whet our appetites for the upcoming Marvel Select Venom, Art Asylum has posted an interview with the its sculptor, Jean St. Jean.
In lieu of the traditional stand, this 7-inch scale Venom comes with a mess of interchangeable parts and, as a result, is billed as having 72 different display options. This wealth of accessories includes multiple head and hand pieces, as well as a removable tongue. Of course, the coolest part is the option to display multiple pieces on him at once. Clearly it's an awesome figure and now you have the chance to read how it came to be awesome in this interview.
Also, note at the end of the interview that Jean St. Jean has expressed an interest in doing both Carnage and Iceman as well. Just imagine the possibilities with Carnage.
