We got the heads up from Action Figure Blues that David Vonner of Hasbro fame has a relative new company called "Kasual Friday". Starting out with both pop-culture and original tees, Kasual Friday are now moving into the mini figure line.

There's no other details on these awesomely new mini figure range other than they should be released sometime in June but we'll keep you posted.
