Forces of Dorkness x outsmART originals: Tusken Idol T-Shirt

"Be it scoundrel or scholar, I was drawn in by both Star Wars and the Indiana Jones movies as a kid.  So I thought, "what's better than mashing those two?", and my response is a piece I call "Tusken Raiders of the Lost Ark".  Our little golden buddy comes from the temples of Tatooine deep in the dunes and about as far away from Mos Eisley as one can get.  Not only does it have the face of a Tusken Raider, but he's also riding the most loyal of the beasts of the desert, the Bantha."
 - Scott Kinnebrew

outsmART originals is thrilled to release the Tusken Idol t-shirt, a limited worldwide release, from the mind of Forces of Dorkness (aka Scott Kinnebrew). Shipping the beginning of March, this release will be screen printed on ultra cotton tees for both men and women.

Head over to http://outsmartoriginals.storenvy.com/ or to www.outsmartoriginals.com and reserve yours today, and may the idol be with you.

As a bonus, the artist will also be awarding three lucky customers an original resin creation as thanks for supporting his work. Just preorder a Tusken Idol tee and you will be automatically entered for a chance to win a Buddha Fett, Bantha Buddy or Leia of Guadalupe original resin creation. Now that’s outta this world! [Benny's note: look for an exclusive series of Scott's Leia of Guadalupe popping up at Tenacious Toys soon!]


The latest Dunny's from Bash

Some new Dunny's from Bash projects. This guy is popping them out on the moment.


Andrew almost died in a car crash a couple of months ago. He was walking around in the dark when out of nowhere a car came and ran him over. He flew through the sky and landed in the ditch next to the road. While he was fighting for his life, a mad doctor took him to his lab in the woods and fixed him up. He replaced the broken parts of his body with pieces of wood from the forest. Now Andrew is part bunny, part tree and is one with nature.





Ayako was one of the worst ninja's I've ever met. His name suited him well. Ayako is Japanese for colorchild. He was colorful in everything: his tattoo's, his love for live and his outfits. But a ninja has to blend into his surrounding, be invisible, be one with the night... Ayako was not! With his purple outfit he was a disgrace for all ninja's. As punishment for his misbehavior Ayoka had to "voluntarily" commit Seppuku.

Post Apocalypse dunny series Huck Gee



After Kidrobot's last awesome 3 inch dunny series, the Apocalypse series, it's only natural to be followed up by a Post Apocalypse series. This is Huck Gee's second dunny series where all the dunnys were designed by him. His first series, the Gold Life series, didn't have a lot of variety. Even though it was a bit repetitive it was still incredible. This series on the other hand has plenty of variety and fits the post apocalyptic theme well. They'll be released on the 28th of February and will cost $9.95 each. These dunnys are a bad ass bunch and it might be worth picking up an entire case.

Birch Tree Ent Mini by Kevin Gosselin

Kevin Gosselin recently finished a set of custom mini munnys called the Birch Tree Ent Mini. A small series of 10 customs are going to be made available for purchase at Noon PST on February 9th. Made using a Mini Munny as the base, Kevin sculpted and painted the gorgeous piece you see below. With a price tag of $275 plus shipping, I think that this a perfect price point for such an awesome piece, considering Kevin recently auctioned off his MW3 APs for more. I'm sure this will make any collector very happy.

If you are keen on purchasing one of these customs, be sure to get your F5 button ready before noon on Saturday. To go along with this release, Kevin has also put up a few more customs in his shop, Sydney the Sapling and Field Study Mouse. A couple of great looking pieces as well.

Hitomi by Bjornik

The latest amazing Dunny from Bjornik...


No one quite knew how the men were disappearing. They were yakuza, after all, gruff and fearless and able to take care of themselves. But as they went missing one by one, whispers started to circulate among the locals of a one-eyed sushi with a taste for mean blood or a flaming wasabi ronin bent on revenge.

Only Hitomi, the dainty geisha famed for her alluring eyes and siren singing, knew the truth. Smiling to herself in the mirror, she touched up her crimson lips and hid a pair of razor-like chopsticks in the secret compartment of her geta. She had an appointment tonight with Kenta of the Yamaguchi-gumi. Their first meeting would be his last.
