Kidrobot Adult Swim Minis

Joe — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 22:50:22 +0000

I am a big Adult Swim fan and seeing how its a very popular TV series block i am sure some of you too like the shows. We dont BS about vinyl toys all that often but this has defiently caught my attention. Coming sometime in April, Kibrobot will release 20 vinyl toys which will be part of an Adult Swim Series. Thanks to Vinyl Pulse who were the first ones to release pictures of the series we can provide you with a preview of what is to come and a run down on some of the figures which you may come across.

The characters from the Adult Swim block that will be included in this series are as follows: Assy (Assy McGee), Avenger (Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law), Bird Girl (Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law), Carl (Aqua Teen Hunger Force), Dr. Girlfriend (Venture Bros.), Early (Squidbillies), Grandma (Squidbillies), Ignignokt and Err (Aqua Teen Hunger Force), Kill Face (Frisky Dingo), Lil’ (Squidbillies), Mad Scientist (Robot Chicken), The Monarch (Venture Bros.), Murderface (Metalocalypse), Orel (Morel Orel), Robot Chicken (Robot Chicken), Toki (Metalocalypse), and two mystery figures. I cant wait to find out who the 2 mystery figures are. Im hoping for Master Shake from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Each figure comes in a Kidrobot x Adult Swim designed box and will retail for $7.95 at select retailers located in the US, Canada, Europe and Latin America. As for now we dont have many preview pictures, but keep your eyes locked to the Kidrobot site for more info and pictures and the release date nears.

Dora The Explorer: Tiffany Edition

I saw this over on NikeSB and got a kick out of it, it was posted by a member that goes by the name BizSB. BizSB works for a children’s software development company and his job received a Dora The Explorer software package. In the package happened to be a miniature Dora The Explorer action figure which BizSB had an idea for. He took the action figure home and one day while he was bored he broke out the acrylics and gave Dora The Explorer a fresh fit. He did her sneakers up in the Nike Dunk Tiffany Edition colorway and gave her a matching outfit to go along with it. I thought this was a great idea and now BizSB has a custom one of a kind Dora The Explorer: Tiffany Edition.
