has been commissioned again by Titan Merch to produce all 11 Doctors for a 50th Anniversary mini series.

The 3" tall vinyl figures wil look simular to the series 1 and 2 designs and will include an additional chaser figure not yet disclosed (we think it might John Hurt who was revealed as a Doctor in S07 E13). These awesome time lords are currently available to pre-order from HERE and expected for release October 15.

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.

Thanks to a petition that went to fans of Cheap Toys 'Garbage Pail Kids' all over of the world, Topps has now agreed to start production on the gross mini figures due to such a huge response. 

"Thank you all for the votes! We made it happen. :) Now, this will go down in history and in the Topps archives.

The fans made it happen...because you love the toys!" - Cheaptoyland.com

The Garbage Pail Kids was a 1980's brand of gross, disgusting and yet fun characters designed to parody the Cabbage Patch Kids dolls created by Xavier Roberts.
