Jesse Hernandez x Kuso Vinyl – Mictlan Styles Southern & Original Colorways

Wanting to know what Jesse Hernandez does every minute of everyday, I take a look at his Facebook constantly. What do I find? I see what perhaps may be the second colorway of his Mictlan figure, which is being produced by Kuso Vinyl. So far both of these colorways are a big Win in my book!

Support grows for Andy from ToysRevil

Yesterday tragedy struck the Vinyl Toy Community as it was announced on Facebook that awesome blogger Andy Heng from ToysREvil had had a minor stroke.This dude is the most tireless blogger out there, dedicating all his time to bringing us the latest news on everything from Vinyl Toys to Comic books, and is a huge inspiration to myself and many others. His status at the moment is that he is still under observation and the next few days are critical. The Community has come together in a huge way, this Toy Community is one of the strongest out there, and there is a list of people who are willing to help in many different ways. Cris Rose ( Twitter ) is putting together a list of people willing to donate figures or cash to help pay for medical bills, and many artists have offered to donate all proceeds from sales to this cause, with the latest being Argonaut Resins offering up some Tuttz OG Albinos to the cause. This is a true tragedy in the community, but it warms the heart to see everyone come together like this with offers to help, and from HelloVinyl I offer my thoughts and prayers to Andy and his family.

All Toy lovers in South Africa please pray for Andy's speedy recovery.

Thanks Flight Pattern and Geoffrey Forbes we have some awesome pictures of the opening night to Ferg/Playge/Threezero's 8" Misfortune Cat custom show titled "Reconstructing Misfortune"! this show was hosted by Munky King, and had customs from some seriously talented artists including: Andrew Bell, Luke Chueh, The Beast Brothers, Frank Kozik, Chris Ryniak, MAD, Reactor88, Jason Siu, Goad, LFOP, TADO, Jon-Paul Kaiser, MCA, Brian Morris, Jason Sui, Abe Lincoln Jr, Motorbot, Scott Wilkowski and Ferg. The show was setup great and really gave great focus to each and every custom submitted to the show.

A few standouts that I personally like would have to be the amazing piece from Andrew Bell... can't go wrong with anything skull related, that stone gargoyle like piece from Chris Ryniak, and JonPaul Kaiser's awesome Karate Kid Cat! Were you unable to make it out to the opening... no worries because this exhibition runs through October 29th, so be sure to stop by and check it out!
