Spektor, designer and founder of B|Sides Toys in Brooklyn, New York, presents a new line of designer vinyl toys. Finger Mafia combines Spektor's passion for designer toys, his love of New York city and it's diversity and his love of gangster movies and TV shows. "The idea for Finger Mafia came from an article I read about Japanese gangs, or Yakuza. It described an act of contrition called yubitsume, which is when a gang member ritually cuts off a finger as a way of apologizing to a Yakuza boss for some act of disrespect. " To get the project up and running Spektor has setup a Kickstarter project offering tier levels from $5 to $1000. At the higher levels you can even have your own idea designed and hand painted by Spektor himself. How bad ass is that? Plus there is a super limited exclusive Shiny Black Mafia available to the first five people to donate at the highest level. Throw in some great t-shirts and stickers in addition to the figures and this is definitely a project that collectors will not want to miss out on.
More photos and production pictures after the jump.
