About Newt
Purveyor of Pop Culture, Professor of Pro Wrestling and award winning amateur scientist, Newton Gimmick founded and currently runs InfiniteHollywood.com. Newton has written for various websites such as 411mania and TNAWrestlingNews, before venturing out to stake his own claim of cyberspace in 2007. One of many web writers not afraid to profess his love of 80's cartoons, toys, pseudo sports and Jem. What makes Newton unique from the others? He does it all from the comfort of his custom, Denver: The Last Dinosaur Snuggie.


About Wesitron
Being the odd man out was always hard for Wesitron. Born a southpaw on the mean streets of the Bluegrass State, he learned to fight and claw for acceptance against his oppressors. “Lefties are people, too” they condescended. And with a smirk does he sip his Diet Dr. Thunder, for he is both cunning and refined. A smirk, dear friends, which always points to the left.


About Jon
The newest member of the crew, Jon's our resident Beastmaster. Not just because he looks like Marc Singer, but because he lives with a guinea pig. Also, one time he wrestled bare with bear hands. Yeah, think about that one for a minute.


About Rob
What does one do with a Master’s degree in English? Why, write movie reviews, of course! Rob lives in scenic Michigan, where, during the 13 months of winter his state is blessed with, he keeps himself warm watching good, bad, and ugly science fiction films. No premise is too shaky, no prequel is too shady, and no rubber monster is too, er, rubbery to dissuade his viewing.


About Bill
Bill White has worked with nearly every comic book publisher on the planet. His highlights include comics for Casper, Donald Duck and Scooby-Doo! His work has also been in the animation field where he contributed on Ren & Stimpy and Inspector Gadget, among others. His own creation, Kaptain Keen and Kompany is in the process of being compiled for a complete collection. Any artwork on this site that's worth a damn, has probably been drawn by Bill! Check out his website at: Bill White Cartoons and tell him how much you love his artwork here!

While I typically only cover more mass market kind of stuff, I have to admit that Toy Tokyo's recent press release on some of their SDCC exclusive stuff caught my eye. I don't really collect much vinyl or other types of more high end collectables but I found these pieces to be interesting. Most are quite affordable and are San Diego Comic Con exclusives. Check them out:



This is a exclusive mini figure of Mask Mouse Murphy to be released at San Diego Comic Con for $20.00 and available at Toy Tokyo’s booth #5237. Tell me that this Mickey Mouse style character in a gas mask made of vinyl isn't cool.



Another exclusive they have is the Marka27’s collaboration with street culture brand Tribal – Killa Instinct Tribal. It's like a paint can crossed with a gangster and a gorilla. The gas mask and accessories are removable to create one very interesting piece of art.



This one is another collaboration between several parties as MINDstyle and Ron English and Toy Tokyo present a metallic blue version of Obese Alien mini figure at San Diego Comic Con for US$20.00 and available exclusively at Toy Tokyo's booth #5237. The edition is limited to 200 pieces worldwide. It's basically like an Alien Buddha and I think that rocks.



Finally if you're into spending a bit more cash for something really cool, check out this SDCC distressed version of MINDstyle’s V.I.N.CENT. This one has been getting a lot of buzz around the interwebs. Once again at Toy Tokyo’s booth with the SRP of USD $130.00. V.I.N.CENT. is over 8 inches all and nearly as wide. It comes packaged in a premium gift box packaging with certificate of authenticity and numbered collectors card. Very cool for us old school Black Hole fans.

Check out Toy Tokyo for information about how to get these or go to San Diego Comic Con and check out their booth.
