MPHLabs and Andrew Bell present the Dealmaker. About 4″ tall, made of soft vinyl and a touch of evil. Dealmaker is one of the first sofubi style designer toys to be entirely designed and manufactured in the USA.

"What do you desire.. money, power, love? You don’t have to depend on luck or hard work for these things any more. Come over here, let’s make a deal… it won’t cost you much more than a soul or two." - Dealmaker

The first edition, Smoke+Red, makes its debut in Vienna, Austria April 25 at the Sixxa shop where Andrew will be signing and sketching from 5 to 7.

For those who cannot make the trip to Vienna, the Dealmaker will be available online at myplasticheart May 2 for $35.

Darryl Dixon is a Plushie

Looks like Norman Reedus' character Darryl Dixon from the highly successful 'The Walking Dead' is a softy after all, well according to Funko that is. Funk posted this image not long ago on their Twitter page of a new image of  a plushie to be released with the following statement:

"Who wants to snuggle with Daryl? @wwwbigbaldhead @WalkingDead_AMC pic.twitter.com/DZq3N4qQsp" - @OriginalFunko

Following the design of Funko's other plushies range this 7" tall Darryl looks pretty bad ass. His face has now appeared in the unidentified page on the Funko site and will drop in July at all good Funko retailers.
