GUUMON Purple Haze Daigomi: last day to enter our lottery!

Today is the last day to submit your entry to the lottery we are running for these 6 Exclusive Purple Haze Daigomis, kindly produced and painted up just for Tenacious Toys by the amazing GUUMON. Winners picked tomorrow; Purple Haze Daigomis are $150 each + shipping. There's one "chase" which has extra gold paint spray (see below) and it will be shipped randomly.

Email me at tenacioustoys at gmail dot com with PURPLE HAZE DAIGOMI in the subject line and give us your name, address and Paypal addy in the email.

Good luck!!!! Since there's only 6 of these, I will NOT be selfishly keeping one for myself, although I really want to. I will be sad every time I ship each of these 6 pieces out. Aargh! One of my favorite sculpts ever.

Geisha Print by Jon-Paul Kaiser

UK based artist Jon-Paul Kaiser doesn't create prints often but he recently received a batch of wonderful prints he illustrated, simply titled "Geisha". Printed on A3 sized heavy-weight pulp paper (380 gsm) with a matte finish, each print is priced at £25 (~$42). Each print is signed and numbered, with an edition of 50 prints. The illustration looks quite beautiful, with some nice details, which may be missed when looking at the illustration for the first time. This print is going to look great properly matted and framed.

These "Geisha" prints are going to be available through JPK's online store on Friday August 29th at 1600 UK time (9am in California). Who knows, if these sell quickly, more Jon-Paul Kaiser prints might be coming in the future.

REVIEW: 10-Year Edition MAD*L Set of 2 by MAD Toy Design

It's not often that a product arrives in as minty perfect condition as the stock photos show on the producer's website... but these 5-inch 10-Year Anniversary Edition MAD*L figures I just got from MAD are absolutely perfect... stock photo above...

 ... actual photos here. Printing is tight and bold and the lines are super clean. I'm sure the added touch of shipping these figures in plastic baggies, inside draw-string printed pouches, inside a box, helped with the perfect arrival. Love the black & white motif. A couple really stellar additions to my personal collection.

 We are super proud to have been stocking the Mad*L figures from the very beginning (well sorta, we started whenever MAD put out Series 1, which sold like crazy... our shop is apparently exactly as old as the Mad*L figure).

Best of all, you can STILL get a set of these figures in MAD's online store here. The set of 2 is only $50, which is actually less per figure than his normal 5" MAD*L price! A steal. I'm astonished that there are any left at all. Get yours.
