DKE and The Sucklord Kickstart S.U.C.K.L.E

DKE and The Sucklord debuted the first 5 sculpts of The Super Sucklord's mini figure line, S.U.C.K.L.E. at last years SDCC. Now they are raising funds on Kickstarter to produce a butt ton of the mini figures know as S.U.C.K.L.E. (Simply Unimportant Collectable Kitschy Little Eyesores).

"The Super Sucklord and his brand Suckadelic have been making custom resin art "toys" for over 10 years. Classic vintage toys have always been a huge inspiration for his work. S.U.C.K.L.E. pays homage to the classic mid-eighties toy line M.U.S.C.L.E. by Mattel. The figures are roughly the same size and made similarly out of solid color injection molded PVC plastic. Each of the Suckadelic characters will be immortalized in the same mini wrestler style as the original M.U.S.C.L.E. figures and stand approximately 2 inches tall. If you are already a M.U.S.C.L.E. collector these figures should display perfectly with your vintage figures."

So what are you waiting for? The figures sculpted by George Gaspar of October Toys are awesome and the rewards are in true Sucklord style. To start your mini fig collection or add some more unique characters to an exsisting one then make your pledge by going HERE.

Kickstart House of Monsters the Sequel

It's not a toy related but it's a Kickstarter we think is pretty cool that could make some rad toys if they did. Last year Dawn Brown made a little short film called House of Monsters. Now Dawn wants to create a sequel to the House of Monsters this time featuring a vampire who discovers creative way to have fun in the sun.

"The story is done! The character designs are done! The set designs are done! We've taken this as far as we can before jumping into the expensive stuff. House of Monsters creator Dawn Brown has assembled a small but mighty crew of Hollywood's most talented artists to help bring these monsters to life." - Dawn Brown

Otto the Octopus is FiveFtTwo in need of Pledges
