COOL SHIT NOT AT SDCC: B.A.L.D.'s Screw SDCC Sale

Bryan Lopez aka B.A.L.D. seems to be as pissed as I am that we didn't make it to San Diego this year...
Couldn’t make it out to SDCC this year? Me either!
So does that mean we just sit and wait for Con updates on the web?

Hell no!!! We will have our own fun, so I’m putting up a rare sale while the
Con runs it course.


Check the CTU Store for ridiculous pricing on BALD's amazing customs.

COOL SHIT AT SDCC: The Sucklord Hangs With Billy Dee Williams

What the hell do I write as a lead-in to this photo? Some things are so awesome that words fail me. What do you say to Billy Dee Williams... when you've been actively bootlegging his action figures for years?

ThreeA Adventure Kartel Retailer figures available for preorder

We are now accepting preorders for these awesome 1/6-scale Adventure Kartel figures from ThreeA. These are the retailer figures and there are 8 of them in the Retailer Adventure Kartel series. Our mailing list subscribers got first crack at these preorders which is why you do not see all 8 figures here in our 3A section. We currently have preorders available for all 3 HoodZombs as well as the Tommy Red figure. They are $90 each, and a $15 preorder deposit is all that's required at this time to secure your order. The balance will be due when these figures are ready to ship to us. 



As an aside, we are increasing our order so there WILL be a few more different figures from this series available on our site in the near future.

COOL SHIT AT SDCC: Kid Ink Twitter Scavenger Hunt with Swag Pack Prizes

Look for Kris, who will be wearing his Kid Ink Alchemy shirt (above)
This year, Kris Dulfer of Kid Ink Industries will be attending SDCC, laden with Swag Packs to give out to YOU! Each Swag Pack will contain a hand-poured Kid Ink resin skull keychain in a variety of colors, a sticker pack which includes several stickers, including the Tenacious Dog sticker, and maybe if you're really lucky, Kris will give you an original sketch.

How do you score a Swag Pack? Glad you asked! We'll be communicating with Kris throughout SDCC and we will tweet his location from the Tenacious Toys Twitter account. All ya gotta do is follow us, read our tweets, and go find Kris at the appointed locations. Tell him you saw my tweet and he'll hand you your Swag Pack. Pretty rad, right? Doesn't get much easier than that.

Kris will be easy to find because he'll be wearing his black Kid Ink Industries Alchemy symbol shirt, pictured above.

BUT, the awesomeness doesn't end there! 
 If you purchase any of Kris Dulfer's custom Mecha Tanks (one of which is pictured above) from our website during SDCC, Kris will personally hand you one of his extremely limited-edition Alchemy t-shirts, as a thank you for your purchase! Buy the custom, email me to tell me you're at SDCC and I'll pass the info to Kris. Then I'll get him to find you.

COOL SHIT AT SDCC: JellyMussel plushes by JellyFace

The new JellyMussel plushies will be revealed at DKE Toys booth #4728. JellyMussels come in 4 sizes: from the XXL to the pocket size (from 25 to 6 inches long). The email JellyFace sent us said "Please stop by and say hello..." which is quite vague. Will these new plushes be SOLD at the DKE Toys booth? I sure hope so. It's be nuts to roll up with new plushes and not sell some... DKE is a distributor so at the very least, the JellyMussels will be available to retailers after SDCC.

If you pollute the sea, watch your back! JellyMussel might bite your ....

Character bio:
Do you hear a murmur from the seabed? A whisper? Some JellyMussel are gathering, coming from all over the ocean … JellyMussel are enraged at the polluted ocean and they are going to get a revenge! A revenge with no half measures. Be careful, they are watching you!
