Exclusive Scott Tolleson Uncle Argh NOIR Mini Qee Kickstarter Ends May 1
On Monday, May 1st at 9pm EST our Kickstarter project to secure funding for an exclusive 500-piece run of Scott Tolleson's Uncle Argh NOIR Mini Qee will draw to a close. We are VERY close to full funding, and with only a couple days to go, we really need your help to hit our mark! Pledging $30 will get you the Uncle Argh NOIR figure shipped to your door once they're ready- that means $30 flat, no matter where you live, inclusive of shipping.
If you're not into Qees for some bizarre reason, we have a $5 sticker pack reward, a $5 papercraft toy reward, a $15 signed mini print by Scott Tolleson, $20 argyle t-shirts, and combo packs which feature some or all of the above rewards. We also have set up rewards that get you discounted credit towards purchases at Tenacious Toys, and 2 of our favorite artists (AW177 and JC Rivera) have even offered up custom toys as rewards for your pledges.
In short, we have a plethora of cool rewards to send out to you in return for your pledge. Your money comes to us in May and goes directly to Toy2R to kick off the production of the Uncle Argh Noir figures! Each reward will be shipped as it is available. This will be our first major collab with Scott Tolleson and our first 500-piece run of anything, so we're really excited to get this project funded and moving.

Shin Tanaka custom Gruntor series drops this Friday
Announcing a very special release on Tenacious Toys: a Shin Tanaka custom series on the Idolz Toys Gruntor platform! Shin customized about 2 dozen of these awesome 3-inch sculpts, and we are blessed with the opportunity to release them in our shop!
Each figure in this Shin Tanaka custom series is hand-painted in a metallic hue that varies across the figure and across the series, and further embellished with heart motif that becomes almost floral in the way it creeps across each figure.
Every figure in this series is unique. The price will be $50 each and we will release these figures this Friday, April 27th at 10PM EST. Look for these figures to drop in our Idolz Toys section.
To learn more about Shin Tanaka, click here to see his website, or click here to read an interview in Format Magazine. Shin is a Japanese street artist who is perhaps best known for his work in the paper toy world, but he's also worked in vinyl toys and a variety of other categories of art.
To learn more about Idolz Toys, click here. Idolz Toys' Gruntor figures feature 6 points of articulation and come with a hammer
accessory. The feet are removable and the figures stack, and they can
even be worn as pendants!
